Modern UI node dialogs are blank sometimes when on a VPN

Hi @Camderman106,
according to our experts in that matter (which is not me):

  • the error log is probably not related to the dialog appearing blank. The logged error is most likely gone with the next AP release (5.2 in December)
  • the blank dialog problem is most likely related to a bad certificate from a proxy/vpn - can you try to set java.net.useSystemProxies=false in your knime.ini? “That will try to force the browser to do a direct connection not following the OS network configuration.”
    (More details: “CEF uses the cert store from the OS, so if the store has the certificate it should validate it. It also uses the proxy configuration from the OS if any.”)

Best,
Martin
