No Proxy Settings in Setup Phase

[LevonBecker]

So the client I'm currently working for has an obnoxious proxy that requires creds etc.

Environment

• Mac OS X Yosemite
• ChefDK 0.7.0
  • Kitchen 1.4.2
  • kitchen-vagrant 0.18.0
• VirtualBox 5.0.0
• Vagrant 1.7.4
• Charles Proxy 3.10.2
• CentOS 6.6/7.1 Guest

Kitchen Config (.kitchen.yml)

provisioner:
  name: chef_zero
  require_chef_omnibus: 12.3.0
  http_proxy: http://10.0.2.2:8888
  https_proxy: http://10.0.2.2:8888
  no_proxy: 'localhost,127.0.0.1,10.0.2.,33.33.33.,.customerdomain.com'

Proxy Settings Not Included in Setup/Verfy Stage

Adding the above to the .kitchen.yml fixes everything up to the phase where it needs to download Gems for ServerSpec. It seems the proxy is not set during the _setup_ stage.

As a test I added the following to the vagrant user _~/.bashrc_ and it _Fixes_ the problem.

export http_proxy=http://10.0.2.2:8888
export https_proxy=https://10.0.2.2:8888
export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,10.0.2.,33.33.33.,.customerdomain.com

Charles Proxy is basically a application that runs your own local proxy that you point all you Dev tools to and it saves your creds securely and in one spot (Easier for when changing password). So from a Vagrant guest to get to the hosted system it's IP 10.0.2.2 blah, and whatever port you tell Charles Proxy to listen on 8888 blah.

Bam, that fixes the issue. Which proves that the proxy is not getting set by the Kitchen code during the _setup_ stage.

I have not had time to dig into the Kitchen code to find exactly where the problem is... If I have time I will.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Wow, thank you for such a thorough report! I can confirm that this is an issue and will need a fix in the Busser gem to make it proxy-aware.

Glad to help :)

Also being impacted by this, using the Docker driver:

-----> Setting up <default-centos-64>...
$$$$$$ Running legacy setup for 'Docker' Driver
-----> Installing Busser (busser)
       ERROR:  Could not find a valid gem 'busser' (>= 0), here is why:
          Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - Errno::ETIMEDOUT: Connection timed out - connect(2) for "api.rubygems.org" port 443 (https://api.rubygems.org/specs.4.8.gz)
       sh: line 23: /tmp/verifier/gems/bin/busser: No such file or directory
       Installing Busser plugins: busser-serverspec
       sudo: /tmp/verifier/bin/busser: command not found

AFAIK, this is not to do with the busser gem, but with the gem process not using the proxy to fetch any gems, in this case busser. I'll try @LevonBecker's workaround.

[gurumaia]

I can confirm that the workaround works.

Not working for me anymore
When I kitchen login I see no_proxy set but when the gem wants to install it's not getting passed into the script.

vagrant@kitchen-bvlt-r1nBase:~$ cat /proc/15713/cmdline 
sh-c
http_proxy="http://devproxyfarm:82/"; export http_proxy
HTTP_PROXY="http://devproxyfarm:82/"; export HTTP_PROXY
https_proxy="http://devproxyfarm:82/"; export https_proxy
HTTPS_PROXY="http://devproxyfarm82/"; export HTTPS_PROXY

Going to close this in favor of more actionable issue on busser - I copied the issue text directly and thanks again for the report!
