Using pip behind a proxy with CNTLM

Question

I am trying to use pip behind a proxy at work   One of the answers from this post suggested using CNTLM  I installed and configured it per this other post  but running cntlm exe -c cntlm ini -I -M http   google com gave the error Connection to proxy failed  bailing out   I also tried pip install -   proxy user pass localhost 3128  the default CNTLM port  but that raised Cannot fetch index base URL http   pypi python org simple   Clearly something s up with the proxy   Does anyone know how to check more definitively whether CNTLM is set up right  or if there s another way around this altogether  I know you can also set the http proxy environment variable as described here but I m not sure what credentials to put in  The ones from cntlm ini

I am also no expert in this but I made it work by setting the all proxy variable in the    bashrc file  To open    bashrc file and edit it from a terminal run following commands   gedit    bashrc  amp    Add following at the end of file   export all proxy  http   x y z w port    Then either open a new terminal or run following in the same terminal   source    bashrc   Just setting http proxy and https proxy variables aren t enough for simple usage pip install somepackage  Though somehow sudo -E pip install somepackage works  but this have given me some problem in case I am using a local installation of Anaconda in my users  folder   P S  - I am using Ubuntu 16 04

To setup CNTLM for windows  follow this article  For Ubuntu  read my blog post    Edit   Basically  to use CNTLM in any platform  you need to setup your username and hashed password  before using http   127 0 0 1 3128 as a proxy to your parent proxy    Edit the config and add important information like domain  username  password and parent proxy   Generate hashed password   Windows cntlm    c cntlm ini    H  Ubuntu Linux cntlm -v -H -c  etc cntlm conf Remove plain text password from the config and replace them with the generated passwords    To check if working   Windows cntlm    M http   www google com  Ubuntu Linux sudo cntlm -M http   www google com   For more detailed instructions  see links above   Update    Just for completeness sake  I was able to configure and use CNTLM in Windows recently  I encountered a problem during the syncing process of Kindle for PC because of our proxy and installing and configuring CNTLM for Windows fixed that issue for me  Refer to my article for more details

At CentOS  actually I think all linux distros are similar  run  env grep http proxy   and  env grep https proxy   check what is the output of those commands  they should contain your proxy addresses    If the outputs are empty or have incorrect values  modify them  for ex   export http proxy http   10 1 1 1 8080 export https proxy http   10 1 1 1 8080   Now try to fetch and install some packages by using pip   pip --proxy http   10 1 1 1 8080 install robotframework   and actually I have never met the case when it didn t work  For some systems you need to be a root  sudo is not enough

You can continue to use pip over HTTPS by adding your corporation s root certificate to the cacert pem file in your site-packages pip folder  Then configure pip to use your proxy by adding the following lines to   pip pip conf  or   pip pip ini if you re on Windows     global  proxy    user passwd  proxy server port   That s it  No need to use third party packages or give up HTTPS  of course  your network admin can still see what you re doing
