npm install error - typings install

[parky128]

Hi,

I'm encountering an issue when attempting to install the dependencies for this repo.

It happens during the postinstall script when attempting the typings install command

The output I see is:

> typings install

typings ERR! message Unable to read typings for "es6-shim". You should check the
 entry paths in "es6-shim.d.ts" are up to date
typings ERR! caused by Unable to connect to "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/D

stall"

typings ERR! typings -v 0.7.12

Now I am behind a proxy, so was thinking it must be an issue with the resource being blocked for some reason.

I can actually navigate to the url referenced in the error above in a browser and the github page opens up just fine.

Digging around the web I have come across posts with instructions on how to add proxy settings to the npm config file. I know the proxy details, so in mine I now have:

ca=
strict-ssl=false
registry=http://registry.npmjs.org/
proxy=http://myusername:mypassword@proxydomain:proxyport
https-proxy=http://myusername:mypassword@proxydomain:proxyport

This has made no difference for me, so I'm unsure what to do next.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

You are more likely to get an answer on stack overflow. This is NOT a support site.

I have posted there also, I only raised here since it's the only dependency in the angular2 QuickStart project that's causing me the issue
