Issue installing gems on windows 7 with proxy

问题

I am trying to install ruby on windows 7 behind a proxy.

I have looked at various forums and have set (i think) the http_proxy successfully (see below)

SET HTTP_PROXY=http:username:password@http://proxyhere.com:8080

however, i now get the following error trying to install a gem:

SocketError: getaddrinfo: No such host is known.

Any ideas?

回答1:

The HTTP_PROXY syntax needs to be URI:

SET HTTP_PROXY=scheme://user:pass@host:port/path

scheme could be http or https and on some cases path could be absent.

No browser (or RubyGems) will accept as valid URL the one you provided.

So in your case:

SET HTTP_PROXY=http://username:password@proxyhere.com:8080/

Hope that helps

At work i have a proyx also, SET HTTP_PROXY=http://proxyhere.com:8080 works there, so try it without usename/password. It depends on the type of proxy i presume.

You could also use:

gem install --http-proxy http://proxyhere.com:8080 $gem_name
