NumberFormatException Cannot load Proxy options from properties

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Proxy configurations are written by GUI tool in this location: 
~/.rest-client/rest-client.properties

So your options are:

1. Open GUI tool and then disable proxy
2. Edit proxy.options.is_enabled=false in the file
3. Delete rest-client.properties to regenerate the properties afresh

Hi subwiz,

thanks for the quick response. Actually I am using RESTClient 3.2.2 CLI in one 
of my automation project. At this time, I have to do everything using CLI 
version (with Java programing) ONLY. Also, this file is only created after the 
execution, so for the first time (in a fresh machine) my test cases may fail. 
Below I have two short questions-

(1) How to disable the proxy using CLI version?
(2) How to configure HTTP Request Timeout using CLI version?

Thank you for the support.

The configuration is shared between the CLI and GUI versions.

Hi subwiz,

Finally I figured out the exact problem. The CLI version is creating 
rest-client.properties with request-timeout-in-millis=60000 ONLY. If the user 
hasn't used GUI version, before executing CLI version, it is showing the above 
exception. After checking with the source code, I realized that as per the 
exception, it is trying to get the integer value of proxy.options.port 
parameter, which is NOT present in the properties file.

Since I never used GUI before this, I noticed that proxy.options.is_enabled 
parameter was not present in rest-client.properties file.
