So basically I am trying to download packages from https://registry.npmjs.org/ using npm install, but I am under a proxy.
I have set-up a remote repository that will hit (above link) and cache using artifactory, so that I can pull locally, but it does not seem to work.
Followed these directions: http://www.jfrog.com/confluence/display/RTF/Npm+Repositories
Anyone else experience difficulties with proxy? I have seen many posts on changing config settings, but this is not what I need, I have to follow artifactory to get what I need, and I have changed my config settings accordingly to how artifactory advises, ie npm config set registry
Thanks!
The error message indicated that npm tried looking for a package named 'artifactory' instead of 'bower' :
'artifactory' is not in the npm registry
This can happen due to various misconfiguration:
- Configuring the Artifactory repository to use a wrong registry URL like https://registry.npmjs.org/artifactory
- Configuring npm to use a wrong registry URL:
npm config set registry http://myserver:8081/artifactory/api/npm/npmjs-registry/artifactory
Both cases will cause Artifactory to send requests to the public registry with the following URL: https://registry.npmjs.org/artifactory/bower instead of https://registry.npmjs.org/bower
In order to make sure your setup is correct, try the following:
- Click the "Test" button in the Artifactory "Edit Remote Repository" window to verify that the registry URL is correct and Artifactory can reach it
Verify the registry URL stored in the .npmrc
configuration file. For example, you can send a request for getting the 'bower' package info: curl -vv http://myserver:8081/artifactory/api/npm/npm-repo-name/bower
If npm install still fails, look at the npm-debug.log and the Artifactory log files for more info
Along with above answer,Please ensure that following option has been added to properties file.
$ARTIFACTORY_HOME/tomcat/conf/catalina.properties file (for Artifactory 4.x)
or %ARTIFACTORY_HOME%\etc\artifactory.system.properties for Artifactory 3.x.
org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true
Try removing proxy and https_proxy from .npmrc and configure the Proxy settings in Artifactory
