HTTP Proxy with TLS termination causing errors

[hohwille]

Expected behavior

As a user behind a corporate HTTP proxy that terminates TLS connections and uses its own TLS certificate to sniff otherwise end-to-end encrypted data, I want to be able to use IDEasy so that it can still automate my IDE setup.

Actual behavior

javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

And also

You are offline.

Steps to reproduce (bug) / Use Case of feature request (enhancement)

1. you need to be behind such a corporate HTTP proxy that terminates TLS and do not have direct Internet access (not so easy to reproduce)
2. create a new IDEasy project (ide create proxytest).
3. potentially later go to that project and then install additional software (ide install intellij)
4. even call ide status to check if you are online or offline.
