500 Error: Failed to establish a backside connection, on bluemix when connecting to Exchange web services


I have a Liberty Websphere application hosted on Bluemix that connects to Exchange Web Services. When I run this api on localhost it works fine and returns the desired results. But when I host it on bluemix, it returns the error "500 Error: Failed to establish a backside connection"

No errors in the logs.

i have tried the solutions given in other posts and searched a lot on internet. But still not able to solve this issue.


Solution

  • Finally the problem is resolved. There was a configuration error in the application as my company's Bluemix server is on dev environment and the application was trying to connect to the prod environment.

    When we connected using the dev IDs, from dev bluemix servers to dev exchange servers, the application works fine.
