Issue

I have a web proxy in place and Liferay uses it when trying to connect to a remote Elasticsearch server, which causes the connection to fail. I do not want Liferay to use the proxy when trying to connect to Elasticsearch.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP
  • Elasticsearch (remote)

Resolution

Try setting something like this in your JVM parameters:

-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts="localhost|127.0.0.1|10.*.*.*|*.example.com|etc"

You can also set this in a system-ext.properties: http.nonProxyHosts=192.168.0.250
