Host Publisher Hints and Tips

Microsoft Internet Explorer Proxy configuration

Follow these steps to turn off the use of a proxy server for the IP address 127.0.0.1 in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Not using a proxy server enables page previewing in the Integrator.
  1. Start Internet Explorer.
  2. Select Internet Options... under the View menu.
  3. Select Connection at the top of the window.
  4. If "Access the Internet using a proxy server" is checked:
    1. Check the box "Bypass proxy server for local (Intranet) addresses".
    2. Click the Advanced... button.
    3. In the window titled "Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with:", add the address 127.0.0.1. Separate multiple addresses with semicolons (";"), e.g. "9.*;127.0.0.1".
    4. Click the OK button.
  5. If "Access the Internet using a proxy server" is not checked, and a message at the bottom of the window states "Automatic Configuration set. This may override current Internet settings", your browser is set up to be automatically configured. Automatic configuration is incorrectly redirecting requests for local Web links (such as http://127.0.0.1:8081 used by the Page Server) to a proxy server. Report this to your network administrator to get it fixed. If this cannot be fixed quickly, you should:
    1. Click the Configure... button near Automatic Configuration.
    2. Make a note of the URL in the entry field.
    3. Delete the URL.
    4. Click the Refresh button.
    5. Click the OK button.
    When you finish previewing Web pages in the Integrator, you should re-configure Internet Explorer using Automatic Configuration and inserting the URL that you deleted.
  6. Click the OK button.
