“Download failed” when using proxy for VCSA update
There is still a bug in current VCSA 6.5 U1g. When you use a proxy server in management interface (Port 5480) to access VMware repository for updates, you get a “Download failed” error. The problem is that in configuration file https-proxy setting will not be set. To resolve the issue, do the following:
- Log in to VCSA shell
- Edit
/etc/sysconfig/proxy-
- set entry
HTTPS_PROXYlikeHTTP_PROXY - example:
HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy:3128/"HTTPS_PROXY="http://proxy:3128/"
- set entry
-
No reboot or service restart is necessary. Just re-try to scan repository.
