dont need this anymore. but need to doco how chocolatey works with proxies https://github.com/Particular/PlatformInstaller/issues/14

mauroservienti commented 7 years ago

@gbiellem @SimonCropp an attendee at the Microservices Workshop last week in Rome mentioned that PI failed for him due to the authenticated proxy in his work LAN/WAN.

In this case the only workaround is a offline installation?

gbiellem commented 7 years ago

@mauroservienti yes that would be the only workaround.
I don't suppose you have contact details or more details about the issue?

mauroservienti commented 7 years ago

No, unfortunately I don't. @gbiellem do you think it's possible to detect that scenario and show users a message pointing them to the offline installation instructions?

gbiellem commented 7 years ago

We already try too. We have a test at startup that attempts to pull down info from S3 using no creds, then default creds, if that fails we prompt for proxy creds.

Thinking about it more, the test item is a txt file, What that wouldn't catch is any filtering on the proxy server to block exe downloads.. I'll reopen this issue and do some testing to ensure it works the way it's supposed to and see if we can provide better feedback

Thanks @mauroservienti

Given https://docs.particular.net/platform/installer/#what-to-expect-proxy-credentials, is this still an issue?
