Bower install - failed with ETIMEDOUT


When I run bower install, I get the following error:

Request to https://bower.herokuapp.com/packages/jquery failed with ETIMEDOUT, retrying in 1.8s

But when I run the same URL in the address bar of Chrome, I get the json. I don't know why it fails when I do bower install using Windows 7 command shell. I suspect it has got something to do with my workplace's proxy settings.

Anyone?


Solution

  • Have you tried something like http_proxy='proxyserver' https_proxy='proxyserver' bower install? (where proxyserver is your proxy)
