SQL Navigator is unable to check for updates when running behind a web proxy.
1. Open SQL Navigator (do not make any database connections)
2. Go to Help -> Check for Updates
3. Update fails because it cannot get through our web proxy.
I can get to the web site through the links in the Help -> About menu. There is access to the internet. But SQL Navigator does not seem to have support for web proxy configuration, so any attempt the application makes to make a connection outside of our network (the internet) fails.
There is an issue with SQL Nav not handling proxy properly.
WORKAROUND:
None
STATUS:
Waiting for fix in a future version of SQL Navigator for Oracle.
