from chocolatey.

fixed in 63cf4e0

from chocolatey.

I am having an error while installing one of the packages

A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'proxy.company.private:8080'

from chocolatey.

Which package are you seeing this with? Or is it any package?

from chocolatey.

the chocolatey version is 0.9.8.11 and I was installing nodejs. But not only installing nodejs

from chocolatey.

do you guys have a proxy in place?

Someone else reported issues with the proxy code that we took from a patch.

If you go to C:\NuGet\chocolateyInstall\helpers\chocolateyInstaller.psm1

and comment out lines 499-507:

  if (!$webclient.Proxy.IsBypassed($url))
  {
    $cred = get-credential
    $proxyaddress = $webclient.Proxy.GetProxy($url).Authority
    Write-host "Using this proxyserver: " $proxyaddress
    $proxy = New-Object System.Net.WebProxy($proxyaddress)
    $proxy.credentials = $cred.GetNetworkCredential();
    $req.proxy = $proxy
  }

to be

#  if (!$webclient.Proxy.IsBypassed($url))
#  {
#    $cred = get-credential
#    $proxyaddress = $webclient.Proxy.GetProxy($url).Authority
#    Write-host "Using this proxyserver: " $proxyaddress
#    $proxy = New-Object System.Net.WebProxy($proxyaddress)
#    $proxy.credentials = $cred.GetNetworkCredential();
#    $req.proxy = $proxy
#  }

Then tell me what you see.

Attempting to install not (cinst nodejs)

With those lines commented out I get...

Downloading nodejs (http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.6.0/node.exe) to C:\NuGet\lib\nodejs.0.6.0\tools\node.exe

[ERROR] nodejs did not finish successfully. Boo to the chocolatey gods!

[ERROR] Exception calling "GetResponse" with "0" argument(s): "The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required."

Without them commented out I get...

Downloading nodejs (http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.6.0/node.exe) to C:\NuGet\lib\nodejs.0.6.0\tools\node.exe

[ERROR] nodejs did not finish successfully. Boo to the chocolatey gods!

[ERROR] A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '10.0.100.2:8080'.

I do have a proxy in place and the argument it is complaining about is it. Without those lines commented it requests my credentials.

We need better proxy support. :(

from chocolatey.

FWIW, this seemed to work for me:

if (!$webclient.Proxy.IsBypassed($url))
  {
    #$cred = get-credential
    $proxyaddress = $webclient.Proxy.GetProxy($url).Authority
    Write-host "Using this proxyserver: $proxyaddress"
    #$proxy = New-Object System.Net.WebProxy($proxyaddress)
    #$proxy.credentials = $cred.GetNetworkCredential();
    #$req.proxy = $proxy
    $req.proxy.credentials = [System.Net.CredentialCache]::DefaultCredentials;
  }

from chocolatey.

Fixing this again for the first time, for the last time? ;)

Hopefully this is fixed with the latest bits coming in 0.9.8.17. If not we will add a config value to specify your proxy type.

from chocolatey.

Almost all packages are not working inside of our auth proxy with Chocolatey 0.9.8.20
The Chocolatey commands (clist, cver, etc.) are still working correctly, and it is working to retry the request with new credential when the proxy returns 407 status code.
Here is my modification.

from chocolatey.

Working with Chocolatey v0.9.8.23, cinst was not working from behind an ISA proxy using NTLM until C:\Chocolatey\chocolateyinstall\helpers\functions\Get-WebFile.ps1 was modified like so:

  #if (!$webclient.Proxy.IsBypassed($url))
  #{
  #  $creds = [net.CredentialCache]::DefaultCredentials
  #  if ($creds -eq $null) {
  #    Write-Debug "Default credentials were null. Attempting backup method"
  #    $cred = get-credential
  #    $creds = $cred.GetNetworkCredential();
  #  }
  #  $proxyaddress = $webclient.Proxy.GetProxy($url).Authority
  #  Write-host "Using this proxyserver: $proxyaddress"
  #  $proxy = New-Object System.Net.WebProxy($proxyaddress)
  #  $proxy.credentials = $creds
  # $req.proxy = $proxy
  #}
  if (!$webclient.Proxy.IsBypassed($url))
  {
    $proxyaddress = $webclient.Proxy.GetProxy($url).Authority
    Write-host "Using this proxyserver: $proxyaddress"
    $req.proxy.credentials = [net.CredentialCache]::DefaultCredentials
  }

from chocolatey.

I'm thinking we'll want to do some configuration file stuff for proxies since there seems to be different ways of handling the way in

from chocolatey.

@grenade would you file a new issue?
