grails unable to work on windows with NTLM proxy

Question

am trying to setup grails 3.3.0.RC1. When i execute grails from command line its shows the following error

Resolving dependencies...
Error |
Error occurred running Grails CLI: connect timed out (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace)

after some search , i realized that the problem might be proxies . for that i have NTLM http proxy.

How do i configure that ? I want to set the properties for proxy like for always i dont want to run grails like this

grails -Dhttp.proxyHost=www.somehost.org -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.proxyUser=userid -Dhttp.proxyPassword=password -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=*.nonproxyrepos.com|localhost

even with the above configuration it is still error.

STACKTRACE:

grails --stacktrace
Resolving dependencies...
| Error Error occurred running Grails CLI: connect timed out (NOTE: Stack trace has been filtered. Use --verbose to see entire trace.)

i have added GRAILS_OPTS in environemt -Dhttp.proxyHost=www.somehost.org -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.proxyUser=userid -Dhttp.proxyPassword=password -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=*.nonproxyrepos.com|localhost but no luck . what the heck is this ?

Answer 1

There are a couple of places you may need to set properties. I think what you really need is to prefix your properties with "grails." wherever you're setting them now. Grails forks a process now and only passes system properties that are prefixed (you can change this if you want, but it's not recommended).

-Dgrails.http.proxyHost=whatever

However, you may also want to set properties in your gradle.properties file. Don't leave any blank; just don't put the line if they should be blank. You can add username and password here too. For these, they don't need a prefix.

systemProp.https.proxyHost=your proxy
systemProp.https.proxyPort=80
systemProp.http.proxyHost=your proxy
systemProp.http.proxyPort=80
systemProp.http.nonProxyHosts:whatever
