How do I go about debugging why the Julia package manager can't connect to Github? I've tried the usual firewall workarounds (see below). Either of the following works fine:
git clone https://github.com/JuliaLang/METADATA.jl git clone git://github.com/JuliaLang/METADATA.jl But within Julia, Pkg.init() fails with: julia> Pkg.init() INFO: Initializing package repository /nfs/fx/home/adrobiso/.julia/v0.5 INFO: Cloning METADATA from https://github.com/JuliaLang/METADATA.jl ERROR: GitError(Code:ERROR, Class:OS, Failed to connect to github.com: Connection timed out) I've already have the following variables set: HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy-us.intel.com:911 HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy-us.intel.com:911 http_proxy=http://proxy-us.intel.com:911 https_proxy=http://proxy-us.intel.com:911 and I've run: git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// git config --global http.proxy $HTTP_PROXY Suggestions? - Arch
