SSL errors after 1.5.1 update

[polizz]

- VSCode Version:
1.5.1
- OS Version:
El Capitan

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open Vscode and message is displayed "unable to get local issuer certificate".
2. Click close and open extensions panel and message is displayed "Marketplace returned 'ECONNREFUSED'. Please check the 'http.proxy' setting."

I had already set my strict settings in the prior versions to get around corporate firewall.

"http.proxyStrictSSL": false

Another person sitting next to me (with same system) also has this issue after updating to 1.5.1.

I also have this same issue using windows 7. The circumstances are almost identical.

It worked previously in 1.4 using "http.proxyStrictSSL": false however I now get the same error messages you do.

After upgrading VS Code to 1.5.1 on Mac (El Capitan), searching for any extensions in Extension Manager window, throws up the same error.

Just updated to 1.5.1 and this issue popped up. Was fine in 1.4.

I also have this issue after upgrading to 1.5.1 on Ubuntu 16.04. I have not tested on Windows yet.

"http.proxy" is set, and "http.proxyStrictSSL" is set to false. I had been getting a certificate error at first, but now it returns "Marketplace returned 'ECONNREFUSED'. Please check the 'http.proxy' setting." with no certificate error.

Duplicate of it.

A fix will be delivered very soon in 1.5.2. Until then, you can use the Insiders release.
