# Proxy configuration with system files

If you're behind a firewall and can't use the UI to configure proxy, you can
configure proxy access using system properties, environment variables, or an
in-app configuration file:

  * with system properties in the `dbeaver.ini` file
  * with a global environment variable
  * with an in-app configuration file

## Configure proxy¶

### Using system properties¶

Edit your `dbeaver.ini` file and add the following lines at the end:

    
    
    -Dorg.eclipse.net.core.enableProxyService=false
    -Dhttps.proxyHost=your-proxy-server-host-name
    -Dhttps.proxyPort=your-proxy-server-port-number
    

Tip

For more details on finding `dbeaver.ini`, see [Configuration
files](../Configuration-files-in-DBeaver/#how-to-locate-the-dbeaver-ini).

### Using environment variable¶

Set the `JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS` environment variable:

    
    
    -Dorg.eclipse.net.core.enableProxyService=false
    -Dhttps.proxyHost=your-proxy-server-host-name
    -Dhttps.proxyPort=your-proxy-server-port-number
    

Warning

This affects all Java applications, not just DBeaver.

### Using in-app configuration file¶

The proxy configuration file depends on your installation type.

  * Writable location:

If DBeaver is installed in a **writable location** (like
`C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\DBeaver\`), use:

        
        C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\DBeaverTeam\configuration\.settings\org.eclipse.core.net.prefs
        

  * Read-only location:

If DBeaver is installed in a **read-only location** (like `C:\Program
Files\DBeaver\`), use:

        
        C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\DBeaverData\install-data\com.dbeaver.team\CLIENT-VERSION\.settings\org.eclipse.core.net.prefs
        

Paste the following content into that file:

    
    
    eclipse.preferences.version=1
    org.eclipse.core.net.hasMigrated=true
    proxyData/HTTPS/hasAuth=false
    proxyData/HTTPS/host=your-proxy-server-host-name
    proxyData/HTTPS/port=your-proxy-server-port-number
    

Tip

For plain HTTP, replace all `proxyData/HTTPS/` prefixes with
`proxyData/HTTP/`.
