  proxy problems?
  If we use the internet connection behind a proxy,
  then we have to make adjustments to the command prompt.

  To do so, before using the composer, run the command
  (for HTTP) set http_proxy:proxy_name:port_number and
  set https_proxy:proxy_name:port_number for https,
  for example: set https_proxy:10.20.2.263:8080
