I'm not able to reproduce your issue. Can you try again and maybe copy the code you are using.

I am unable to connect the IBM Watson server stream.watsonplatform.net, while running the SpeechToText Sample Application from java sdk. please help me to resolve the issue

[germanattanasio]

I don't think this is related to the java-sdk. I just tried and it seems to be working

[jpreisner]

To fix the problem of @hcsekaran :

System.setProperty("http.proxyHost",host); System.setProperty("http.proxyPort",port); System.setProperty("https.proxyHost",host); System.setProperty("https.proxyPort",port);

[germanattanasio]

this is related to #311

If we are not using proxy, how can we handle this?

I'm receiving this error and I'm using the most recent version of the watson sdk.

[Danilo-Araujo-Silva]

I was able to solve the problem using this:

System.setProperty("http.proxyHost","");
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort","");
System.setProperty("https.proxyHost","");
System.setProperty("https.proxyPort","");

It's kind of crazy since I'm not really using proxies.
