Fetch WSDL Error: Could not download resource

Hello,

I get the following error when fetching wsdl for an external web service on the UI with Apigee Edge On-premise.

"Fetch WSDL Error: Could not download resource. webservices.flightexplorer.com."

I assume the error occurs because we need to send the request to the web service via our company proxy.

Is it possible to configure outbound proxy setting on Edge to resolve this?

You should be able to configure the http proxy for the UI, by creating or editing this file:

/opt/apigee/customer/application/ui.properties

and inserting this line:

conf/apigee.conf+http.proxyHost=yourproxyhost.name.com

Then you need to restart the UI, like this:

/opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-ui restart

Thank you for you help.

I am using Edge v4.15.07.08 and the directory structure is a bit different from what you answered.

Where should I create ui.properties in the version?

The proxy also requires user and password info to access that.

Can and how we configure the settings in ui.properties?

Thanks,

I installed v4.17.01 and configured proxy setting with ui.properties, but still get the same error. So this might not be caused by forward proxy setting.

"Fetch WSDL Error: Could not download resource.

The application log of edge-ui is as attached.

Any help will be appreciated

I configured the following settings in ui.properties.

conf/application.conf+http.proxyHost=proxyhostname
conf/application.conf+http.proxyPort=portnumber
conf/application.conf+http.proxyUser=proxyuser
conf/application.conf+http.proxyPassword=proxypassword

But still I get the same error.
Fetch WSDLError: Could not download resource. webservices.flightexplorer.com: Name or service not known.

I copied the wsdl content and set the page on a local apache.
Then I specified the url as WSDL in building a Proxy for SOAP on Edge UI.In that case, the wsdl validation succeeded.

Any possible cause why wsdl valiation to the external soap service fails?

Thanks,
