Problem Description	Customer couldn't connect to a SVN server from the TAC ("URL cannot be reached") although he could connect from the same box outside Talend using wget.
Problem root cause	Mixing up the -Dhttp.proxyNNNN and -Dhttps.proxyNNNN JVM parameters. Initially only HTTPS, and then both HTTP and HTTPS.
Solution or Workaround	Even if you refer to HTTPS in the TAC > Settings > Configuration > Monitoring > AMC URL, for example https://host_name:9443/svn/talend661/, the JVM parameters have to be HTTP, NOT HTTPS: -Dhttp.proxySet=true -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy_hostname -Dhttp.proxyPort=port_number -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=domain_one|domain two... If the above settings don't work, and your URL runs over HTTPS, then try using the HTTPS-based Java properties as well: -Dhttps.proxySet=true -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxy_hostname -Dhttps.proxyPort=port_number Somewhat oddly, the -Dhttps.nonProxyHosts=domain_one|domain two... property does not exist - the http.nonProxHosts setting will be used for both HTTP and HTTPS URLs. To read more about these Java networking/proxy settings, see: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/net/proxies.html To add the parameters to a Windows install, modify the setenv.bat file: REM you will see the original line looks like this; this line stays set "JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Xmx2048m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" REM then just add in the proxy parameters set "JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dhttp.proxyHost=<proxy_hostname> -Dhttp.proxyPort=<port_number> etc..." To add the parameters to a Linux / Unix install, modify the setenv.sh file (notice the $ instead of %s😞 # you will see the original line looks like this; this line stays export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xmx2048m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8" # then just add a new line that adds the proxy parameters export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dhttp.proxyHost=<proxy_hostname> -Dhttp.proxyPort=<port_number> etc..." Then restart TAC. Windows: C:\Talend\6.4.1\tac\stop_tac.bat; C:\Talend\6.4.1\tac\start_tac.bat; Linux / Unix: C:\Talend\6.4.1\tac\stop_tac.sh; C:\Talend\6.4.1\tac\start_tac.sh;
