Karate throwing error in Gloo API gateway and there is no proxy

Our All new API's are in Gloo micro Gateway, so when I am trying to connect it with karate, it is throwing the error "java.net.socketexception" but the same thing is working fine in postman.

There is no proxy set as such.

So in Karate do we have a use case where we have successfuly triggered the API behind the gloo micro gateway?

This a blocker for us for all the API in GCP. Any insights will be very helpfull.

The API behind Gloo network should work properly in Karate

Usually this kind of issue is because you have an HTTP proxy or because there is no network connectivity to the server. For proxy configuration, refer to this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/59678094/143475

For network issues please take the help of your local IT folks.

There is a rare chance that the server is very strict about certificates even if you * configure ssl = true. In that case, read on.

For the benefit of others, pasting the solution from the comments thread:

> there was a strict policy not to bypass the SSL, so * configure ssl = true was throwing the error. So I need to import some certs in the JVM and make the * configure ssl = false in the feature file for that particular API ( since other API need to bypass ssl so I havnt changed * configure ssl = true] in config file).

For those looking for details on how to configure certificates in Karate: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate#x509-certificate-authentication

Note that * configure ssl = false (or true) can be done any time within a test. This means even if you choose to set it "globally" in karate-config.js you could over-ride it in specific Feature-s or Scenario-s.
