ChunkedEncodingFeature chunkedEncodingFeature = new ChunkedEncodingFeature(false); Repository repo = new Repository(sharePointUrl, qname); RepositorySoap repoSoap = repo.getPort(RepositorySoap.class, chunkedEncodingFeature); ... FileInformation upload = repoSoap.upload(userCompanyId, fileName, arrayOfMeta, document); 6 Check the proxy log, I see a request for the WSDL but the call to the webservice itsself goes direct and does not use the configured proxy.
