p2 director behind a firewall / proxy does not work [message #576172]

Hi,

I am using p2 director.bat and buckminster headless.

Updating (or installing) buckminster headless on my home machine works fine, however within my company network we have a proxy / firewall. There p2 director.bat does NOT work.

I tried to pass
-Dhttp.proxyHost=http://user:password@firewall.sickcn.net -Dhttp.proxyPort=80
both via the command line and also via the eclipse.ini file but both versions did not work.

How can I use director.bat within a corporate network with proxy ?

the versions i used are from [1]

thanks, Bernhard,

Although this post isn't exactly new, I ran into the same
problem and still couldn't find an answer in the net,
so I had to try myself.

This is what I ended up doing:

Configure a proxy within the IDE, then
grab the file configuration/.settings/org.eclipse.core.net.prefs
and copy it into the corresponding location of the director
installation.

Seems to work as intended.
best,
Stephan
