Intellij check for updates: unable to connect

The following screenshot has been showing up for several days now. Are other people seeing this?

Note: to be sure it were not a general connection error, in addition to being able to post this sof message i did a github pull. That is a solid indication that my network proxies have been properly disabled: and it worked fine. So the message is puzzling.

Possibly a known bug fixed in Intellij IDEA 13.1 (27 Mar 2014).

  1. Go to Settings / Updates, then press button "Check now".
  2. Result: normal Update info.

Un-checking Use secure connection in the above mentioned window may fix the issue under some circumstances.

To fix this problem:

  • Select Settings / HTTP Proxy
  • Select the radio button: Auto-detect proxy settings or simply No proxy

If select Auto-detect proxy settings:

  • Select check box for Automatic proxy configuration URL: and enter your proxy URL
  • Select Check connection button

Worked for me!
