Deploying APEX Code

I am trying to deploy APEX code using the process outlined by SFDC.  I keep getting a login faluire.  I am behind a fire wall and will all other programs I need to make sure that I supply a proxy.  However, I do not see any instructions for deploying from behind a firewall.
 
Are there any better instructions for deploying code from your DEV or SANDBOX to Production.
 
Thanks

Please file a bugreport, include as much information as possible that will help us debug the issue.

I have opened a ticket and am working with my support team.  It is deffinitley the proxy settings.  When I run the deploy on another workstation that is not behind the firewall it works just fine.

I will update the posting when I get more information

If your network requires an HTTP proxy, follow the instructions in Ant Proxy Configuration.
MVJMVJ
Followed those directins and still not working.  Tried setting the ANT_OPTS with the proxy host and port and also tried using the -Dhttpproxy.Host and -Dhttpproxt.Port and it did not work.  I am totally lost.
gjsgjs
Out of desperation, have you tried:
 
<setproxy proxyHost="${proxy.host}" proxyPort="${proxy.port}"/>

Hi,
 
I am also trying to follow the sample provided by salesforce, and came across the same issue.  The log from dos command line is as follows:
 
 
C:\salesforce_ant\sample>ant deploy
Buildfile: build.xml
deploy:
[sf:compileAndTest] compileAndTest on https://test.salesforce.com/services/Soap/
u/10.0, compiling 1 classes and 1 triggers, deleting 0 classes and 0 triggers
[sf:compileAndTest] note: use ant -verbose to get more information on the failure
BUILD FAILED
C:\salesforce_ant\sample\build.xml:9: Failed to login:Failed to send request to
https://test.salesforce.com/services/Soap/u/10.0
Total time: 23 seconds
C:\salesforce_ant\sample>
 

I tried to setting up environment variable ANT_OPTS, but still doesn't work...  Any help would be much appreciated!
 
Thank you,
Mei

Glad to see I am not the only one with the same issue.  I have tried evrything that support has asked and no luck.  As a fall back I will beploy from my personal network with no firewall issues.
Bill EidsonBill Eidson
Could you run with: ant -verbose, to get more information.
MVJMVJ
I did.  The error was that the logon failed becasue it could not reach SFDC (Firewall issue). 
jmcjmc
When I ran ant -verbose, I got the following.  It couldn't find antlib.xml...?

  Yes, there is an issue w/ the ant tasks & proxy settings;  I'll post back here once has been fixed.
Bill EidsonBill Eidson
Ok, the proxy configuration issue has been fixed, thanks for your patience.
Please re-download the .zip and re-copy the jar into ant/lib.

It should now be logging to indicate that a proxy was specified & I don't see that in the log, so somehow the settings aren't being picked up.

  Can you try the setProxy task as described here, http://ant.apache.org/manual/proxy.html, since that's the simplest way...  If, doing that, you still don't see the log indicating a proxy is being used, double check that ant  is picking up the right .jar.

  If you still have problems, please contact me offline & we can troubleshoot this together.

  Thanks,

  - Bill

Ran it again using the -autoproxy setting, per the ant proxy link you sent, and same result.
 
jmcjmc
Thank you Bill for the new .zip.  It works now!
 
To set proxy, in build.xml, add:
<setproxy proxyHost="${proxy.host}" proxyPort="${proxy.port}"/>
 
In build.properties, add:
proxy.host = proxy 
proxy.port = 8080

Bill that did it thanks for all the help.

Could you give me the URL to this download - I fear I have the old version.
Bill EidsonBill Eidson
The links are in the app under setup->Build->tools.
The ant URL is: http://www.salesforce.com/downloads/ApexTools/salesforce_ant.zip
