Hi,

We have installed Thingworx 8.5 with Tomcat 8.5. It was working properly. But, after sometime it is showing "This is a proxy server. Does not respond to non-proxy requests." message while trying to open tomcat. What will be the issue? How to resolve?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sathishkumar C.

Hi,

 

I have seen in catalina.log the following:

For me this seems that the 8080 port is already used.

Please follow the steps from this article: https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article?n=CS290811

 

Hope it helps,

Hello,

 

Thank you for your post.  Hopefully we can resolve this issue together.  Did you happen to use a proxy configuration in your config.json file during installation?

 

Thank you,

Angela

Hello,

 

I'd actually like to take a step back and get a better idea of the system you're working with.  Can you please provide the following details?

  • Java Version
  • OS (windows, ubuntu, RHEL, Amazon RDS)
  • Persistence (H2, PostgreSQL, DSE, Azure, etc)
  • Where exactly are you seeing the error message?  (Is it in a Tomcat log?)
  • Do you have any error logs to share?
  • Have you successfully launched ThingWorx platform and created and saved an Entity?

Thank you,

Angela
