Anaconda Proxy Setup via .condarc fails

I try to update Anaconda behind a corporate proxy. For this the network team gave me the parameters: proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234. HTTP as well as HTTPS. However, everthing I try won't work. Either it doesn't show any effect or it returns a ConfigurationLoadError reasoned with "invalid yaml".

This configuration returns an error:

proxy_servers:
    http: http://proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234
    https: https://proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234

And this configuration doesn't work either:

proxy_servers: {http://proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234, https://proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234,}

I've already looked up a similar question, which solutions don't work for me, and the documentation:

Python Anaconda Proxy Setup via .condarc file on Windows
https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/configuration/use-condarc.html
https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/user-guide/tasks/proxy/
https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/configuration.html

Can anyone please tell me what my mistake is and what the soulution is?

Solution

  • I've found the answer to it and it seems that is was mainly a matter of formatting:

    proxy_servers:
  http: proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234
  https: proxy.subdomain.domain.de:1234

    I had too much spaces in front of the parameters, four spaces instead of only two spaces, and putting "http://" or "https://" in front of the parameter was also not correct.
