I'm running the torch7 on a ubuntu 14.04 LTS pc behind a proxy. I have already made environment variables Http_proxy and proxy.

The default options for wget and curl and git has been set to run via this proxy. here are the steps I used to change the settings of the packages of Wget proxy, Curl proxy & git proxy

The env variables are available in my .bashrc and /etc/enviornmentfiles.

I have also added the proxy in the config.lua file as per this post as well.

The error I get when i try to install this is

$sudo luarocks install cunn
Warning: Failed searching manifest: Failed loading manifest:

- Error fetching file: Failed downloading

Try `sudo -E luarock ....` command. – hjpotter92 Jan 28 '16 at 07:24
Tried it and get the same error @hjpotter92 – Arsenal Fanatic Jan 28 '16 at 12:16
what is the output of `env | grep -i proxy`? – hjpotter92 Jan 28 '16 at 12:51
Same values for root and user. `http_proxy=http://hpc-squid.fe.hhi.de:8080 ftp_proxy=http://hpc-squid.fe.hhi.de:8080 HTTPS_PROXY=http://hpc-squid.fe.hhi.de:8080 https_proxy=http://hpc-squid.fe.hhi.de:8080 HTTP_PROXY=http://hpc-squid.fe.hhi.de:8080` – Arsenal Fanatic Jan 28 '16 at 13:46
I don't see `use_proxy=yes` variable. – hjpotter92 Jan 28 '16 at 13:50
But I thought that value should be set in the `config.lua` file. – Arsenal Fanatic Jan 28 '16 at 13:52
no, in `.wgetrc` or better yet, in emvironment – hjpotter92 Jan 28 '16 at 13:59
I seems dont have a `.wgetrc` file but a `/etc/wgetrc` where there is a `use_proxy = on` variable @hjpotter92 – Arsenal Fanatic Jan 28 '16 at 16:08
