[ERROR] -Unable to execute HTTP request

[Rajeshkumar123]

Hi,

I have installed Kinesis agent in my RHEL server 7.2 . My server is beyond proxy . When I try to run the kinesis agent I am getting the below error. Is there any way to configure proxy setting in kinesis agent file.

Agent.json

{
  "awsAccessKeyId":"xxxxxxxx",
  "awsSecretAccessKey":"xxxxxxzxxxx",
  "cloudwatch.emitMetrics": true,
  "firehose.endpoint": "https://firehose.us-east-2.amazonaws.com",
  
  "flows": [
    {
      "filePattern": "/var/log/aws-kinesis-agent/aws-kinesis-agent.log*",
      "deliveryStream": "FireshosetoES"
    }
  ]
}

Error

Same problem! Some proxy configuration missing? How to fix it?

[jagilbert27]

I got those errors because proxy.

Fixed by adding proxy config arguments to the startup script start-aws-kinesis-agent as described in Issue 61

In my case the suggested syntax didn't work: -Dhtttps.proxyHost=https://proxy.mydomain.com But this did work: -Dhtttps.proxyHost=proxy.mydomain.com
