Install Laravel behind proxy

Question

Im trying to install Laravel on a windows machine.
I followed this guide up to point 11.
http://www.wikihow.com/Install-Laravel-Framework-in-Windows

I also ran two commands already (which I got from https://stackoverflow.com/a/18852026/2240163)

set http_proxy=<your_http_proxy:proxy_port>
set https_proxy=<your_https_proxy:proxy_port>

But on running composer install i am met with a message

  C:\wamp\www\LARAVEL>composer install
  Loading composer repositories with package information

  [Composer\Downloader\TransportException]
  The "https://packagist.org/packages.json" file could not be downloaded: SSL
  : The specified procedure could not be found.

  failed to open stream: Cannot connect to HTTPS server through proxy

How can I get past the proxy to install Laravel 4.

.
.

Here in lay the solution

C:\wamp\www\LARAVEL>set http_proxy=http://mnel:******@192.168.20.4:8080
C:\wamp\www\LARAVEL>set https_proxy=https://mnel:******@192.168.20.4:8080

I then ran the install composer command again and presto! https://stackoverflow.com/a/24958700/2240163
Thanks @mneute

I think its because it was not able to connect to https using proxy can you try this [Composer Behind Firewall](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17307600/php-composer-behind-http-proxy) — Arun Kumar, Nov 07 '14 at 03:21

I got this same issue when I ran composer -vvv install. I did it in windows7 computer behind a company firewall. I search and tried every possible answer but didn't work. Then I tried following and it did work https://www.calazan.com/how-to-set-the-proxy-settings-in-windows-via-command-line/
