Hi,

- I have given '192.168.0.3:8080' in 'HTTP Proxy Server' while username and password are empty.
- I have checked the 'Enable HTTP (WAP2) Proxy, and HTTP Proxy Port is '80'.

Now as i can understand when ever i browse for URL i.e. 'http://localhost/waptest/test.wml', it should send request to NowWap and then redirect it to the original proxy server i.e. 192.168.0.3 and page should be open. But i am getting 'HTTP 400 - Bad Request'.

Please see to it and if any one can help me out. Am i doing some thing wrong.

I want to mention here that on the 'Service' tab, when i make a request i see 'Requests' count changing as well as the Inbound and outBound data.

Thanks.

Nauman,

What happens when you request something other than "localhost"?

When you request "localhost" through a proxy, ultimately it is a proxy server (in this case 192.168.0.3) that is going to evaluate the request. I wouldn't find it unusual for a proxy server to return a 400 error if you requested a page from "localhost".

What do you see in the proxy server's log?
