Website Monitoring - Proxy Details & General Exception

Hi,

We have installed Website Monitoring App on Splunk and there are few URLs which uses a proxy. The DNS for this proxy has an underscore in it "_" (internet_p**) and the App doesn't allow me to save the configurations.

I end up getting an error as below.

**"Encountered the following error while trying to update: In handler 'localapps': Error while posting to url=/servicesNS/nobody/website_monitoring/admin/website_monitoring/default"

We have been using the IP address instead of DNS for proxy (with appropriate authentication details ) where I am able to save the configurations unlike above however end up getting a different error on Splunkd logs.

raise ServerNotFoundError("Unable to find the server at %s" % conn.host)
ServerNotFoundError: Unable to find the server at www.direct.
*.co.uk

Is this something you can help us with ?

Thanks,
Karthik

This was fixed in version 1.1.1 of the Website Monitoring; upgrading should fix the problem.
