I've just installed Fiddler2 on a Windows 7 Enterprise system. On our network is running an application server providing REST methods.
I'm connecting to that server with a Java client application using RestEasy. This connects fine and sends an HTTP REST request.
I have set the proxy settings in the application's VM settings (-DproxySet=true -Dhttp.proxyHost=127.0.0.1 -Dhttp.proxyPort=8888) but when I attempt the connection it seems to go right through to the server and is not intercepted by Fiddler.
I even tried setting the proxy port to a bad value, but the request still goes through, so I'm thinking it is a RestEasy issue.
I have another Java client application which also makes a REST method call, but doesn't use RestEasy, and it is intercepted by Fiddler just fine.
Do you know what I need to do to get my Java RestEasy requests to be intercepted by Fiddler2?
Thanks,

Hello, Mark--
It sounds like the APIs in question are not properly using the configured proxy settings, which would be a bug in that API. Have you reported this problem to the owner/maintainer of this API?
(And just to confirm, if this is a HTTPS request, you've configured Java to trust Fiddler's certificate and have enabled HTTPS decryption in Fiddler).

Yes, I think that when using RestEasy, it handles proxy settings differently. I wasn't able to figure out how to get this to work, so I had to not use Fiddler in this particular case. I was able to determine the root cause of my original problem however, so all is good.
Thanks!
Thanks!
