Unable to connect to charms store

[Kodamati Pradeep Vinesh Reddy]

when I try to download the charms using charm get wordpress(or any other charm) I get a connection timed out error. I have a proxy added in my network and I am able to use wget, apt-get but charm alone wont work.

Due to this I am also not able to use juju deploy charm.

charm doe not respect system proxy settings, you have to modify /usr/share/charm-tools/scripts,

adding:
  proxy_info = httplib2.ProxyInfo(socks.PROXY_TYPE_HTTP, 'your.proxy.server', your_proxy_port)
to the Launchpad.login_anonymously function call.

socks and httplib2 packages should be imported.

Jason after adding the above mentioned "proxy_info" details to the Launchpad.login_anonymously function call I am getting the following error

[Ilari Shafer (mrcaps)]

This might have been resolved or outdated by now, but when specifying proxy_info, you'll want to not include http:// in the hostname of the proxy:
proxy_info=httplib2.ProxyInfo(socks.PROXY_TYPE_HTTP, 'proxy.compaq.com', 8080)

[Narinder Gupta (narindergupta)]

Pradeep will you please test the same with the changes mentioned by mrcaps?
