You should use  no proxy env variable  lower-case   Please consult https   wiki archlinux org index php proxy settings for examples   Also  there was a bug at curl long time ago http   sourceforge net p curl bugs 185    maybe you are using an ancient curl version that includes this bug

In my case  macos  curl 7 54 0   I have below proxy set with    bash profile    env  grep -i proxy  cut -d   -f1 sort FTP PROXY HTTPS PROXY HTTP PROXY NO PROXY PROXY ftp proxy http proxy https proxy no proxy   With unknown reason  this version of curl can t work with environment variables NO PRXY and no proxy properly  then I unset the proxy environment variables one by one  until to both HTTPS PROXY and https proxy   unset HTTPS PROXY unset https proxy   it starts working and can connect to internal urls  So I would recommend to unset all proxy variables if you have in your environment as temporary solution   unset http proxy https proxy HTTP PROXY HTTPS PROXY

I ran into the same problem because I set the http proxy and https proxy environment variables  But occasionally  I connect to a different network and need to bypass the proxy temporarily  The easiest way to do this  without changing the environment variables  is   curl --noproxy     stackoverflow com   From the manual   The only wildcard is a single   character  which matches all hosts  and effectively disables the proxy    The   character is quoted so that it is not erroneously expanded by the shell

First  I listed the current proxy setting with   env   sort   less    should be something like http proxy http   wpad local machine location port number   Then I tried setting  export http proxy        which gave this error message   curl   5  Couldn t resolve proxy       Tried   export http proxy     amp  amp  curl http   servername portnumber destinationpath  -d 55   and it worked    PS  Remember to set http-proxy back to its original settings with  export http proxy http   wpad local machine location port number

I assume curl is reading the proxy address from the environment variable http proxy and that the variable should keep its value  Then in a shell like bash  export http proxy     before a command  or in a shell script  would temporarily change its value    See curl s manual for all the variables it looks at  under the ENVIRONMENT heading

Lame answer but  Remember to make sure no proxy is set in a    curlrc file

Long shot but try setting the proxy to     empty string  that should override any proxy settings according to the man page
