I have tried to do the required search for my problem but I did not get quite the answer I need.
Objective: to install homebrew & work with homebrew OS I am using : OS X El Capitan
The following is my problem: I am new to OS X & Homebrew. I am trying to install homebrew from my home network using the following command:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
but I get the following error:
curl: (7) Failed to connect to "company_domain_ip" port "port#": Operation timed out
Looks like executing the ruby curl thing is trying to go through the company proxy & port even if I am in my home network. I trying to switch of proxy from Network Preferences > advanced > proxies. But doesn't help.
If I install brew using the ruby curl thing in my office network, then it installs fine. But, brew gives the Bad URI error when I try to do a "brew anything". Not sure if this a brew problem or some problem in the way I am using brew with respect to the proxy.
I think that if I get around this proxy when in non-office on my osx then, it might solve the issue. So how can I switch off http proxy in osx ? so that when I at least run the following command it works first of all.
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Then may be brew will also start working.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
