Environment

LiveUpdate Administrator 2.3.8

Cause

This issue happens when a proxy address is used anywhere in LUA UI then the proxy host and port get stuck as a JVM property and LUA inadvertently uses this proxy for all the further communications which causes these failures.

Resolution

This issue is resolved in LiveUpdate Administrator 2.3.9. You can download this build here
