I used to have this error. The solution is to comment out the code
within the SDK that makes urllib2 proxy aware. The real bug here is
that it does not help to use a different connection. The system was
trying to use the proxy configured on my ethernet port while I was
only connected with wireless
Hi,
Some Googling turned up this:

"This is because urllib2 does not support HTTPS proxies (neither
doesurllib). See Python cookbook for a hack to get it working.
"
