For BI Plus CE ( free edition) to work, it needs to communicate with our central server, on the web, to upload usage content and to download advertising content.

If you have disabled in your organization (the ability to freely get onto the internet), you need to configure Java in such a way that it gets there with relative ease by connecting through the proxy server.

Steps to set it:

1. Click on "Apache Tomcat BIPLUSTomcat5" in system tray or you can invoke it via Start-->BIPLUS-->BIPLUS Home-->Tomcat-->Config Tomcat menu.

2. in Tomcat Properties dialog, go to Java Tab and in "Java Options" append these options:

-Dhttp.proxyHost=your_proxyhostURL
-Dhttp.proxyPort=your_proxyPortNumber
-Dhttp.proxyUser=someUserName
-Dhttp.proxyPassword=somePassword

3. Restart service from General Tab in same dialog.
