Set up Http Proxy in Android Studio

Question

I have read multiple similar questions and the documentation but I have not been able to solve my issue of getting by the corporate firewall my machine sits behind. The error I am getting is 'Failed to refresh Gradle project' Unknown host services.gradle.org. Everything I have read and understand lead me to believe this is a http proxy issue. I have tried setting the proxy properties in the gradle.properties file in my Project folder so my gradle.properties file looks like :

# Project-wide Gradle settings.

# IDE (e.g. Android Studio) users:
# Settings specified in this file will override any Gradle settings
# configured through the IDE.

# For more details on how to configure your build environment visit
# http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/build_environment.html

# Specifies the JVM arguments used for the daemon process.
# The setting is particularly useful for tweaking memory settings.
# Default value: -Xmx10248m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
# org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -    Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

# When configured, Gradle will run in incubating parallel mode.
# This option should only be used with decoupled projects. More details, visit
#  http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/multi_project_builds.html#sec:decoupled_projects
# org.gradle.parallel=true

systemProp.http.proxyHost=proxy.company.com
systemProp.http.proxyPort=83
systemProp.http.proxyUser=username
systemProp.http.proxyPassword=password
systemProp.http.auth.ntlm.domain=domain

systemProp.https.proxyHost=proxy.company.com
systemProp.https.proxyPort=83
systemProp.https.proxyUser=username
systemProp.https.proxyPassword=password
systemProp.https.auth.ntlm.domain=domain

I have also tried setting the Global Gradle Settings by going File->Settings->Gradle and setting the Gradle VM Options using:

-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.company.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=83 -Dhttp.proxyUser=username -Dhttp.proxyPassword=password

I cannot see any documentation of where else to set this http proxy setting, please help if you can.

Answer 1

try to add domain into gradle global settings

-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy.company.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=83 -Dhttp.proxyUser=username -Dhttp.proxyPassword=password -Dhttp.auth.ntlm.domain=domain

It helps for me.

Answer 2

Had a similar issue getting android studio to open up behind a corporate firewall. It would crash after looking for SDK updates and failing. I used a freeware called "proxycap" and input the proxy settings for the corporation (available in the my computer's internet settings). Now it works fine! There are other proxy freewares (proxify...), but I chose this is one of the programs with a program level proxy settings, where I could set up the proxy for android studio only.

Answer 3

//gradle.properties

systemProp.http.proxyHost=www.somehost.org

systemProp.http.proxyPort=8080

systemProp.http.proxyUser=userid

systemProp.http.proxyPassword=password

systemProp.http.nonProxyHosts=*.nonproxyrepos.com|localhost

I dont know if there was proxy option in previous version, but in v1.0.1 and above you can find it in File-> Settings -> IDE settings.
