Version Check in 2.0

Administrators
1

Hi,

my testing version of 2.0 is behind a proxy.
When I go to the admin site I get an error from the version-check that the Network is unreachable.
I set my proxy settings as environment variables as:
http_proxy=xxx:3128
https_proxy=xxx:3128
ftp_proxy=xxx:3128
proxy=xxx:3128
Where do I have to set them so this error doesn’t appear anymore?

Best Regards,
Alex

requests.get('https://pypi.python.org/pypi/indico/json') is the code we are using for the version check.

Setting HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY should do the job: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/user/advanced/#proxies

Hello sorry for my late reply I was on vacation.

so I logged in as the indico user and manually opened a python shell and tested the code and it worked.

>>> import requests
>>> requests.get('https://pypi.python.org/pypi/indico/json')
<Response [200]>

It’s just that every time i go to the admin page I get an error in the mail like this:

do you have any idea what I could do?

Try setting the proxy env vars in your uwsgi config as well, as described here: https://coderwall.com/p/93jakg/multiple-env-vars-with-uwsgi
