[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS/Troubleshooting] Ament Build with Proxy Setup

[Olalekan Ogunmolu]

Hey Guys,


How do you get ament to bypass a proxy/firewall during the build process?

I am installing ament dependencies and I found that I keep failing when building ros2 particularly in building poco:

```bash
downloading...
     src='https://github.com/pocoproject/poco/archive/poco-1.7.7-release.tar.gz'
     dst='/home/lex/ros2_ws/build/poco_vendor/poco-1.7.7-prefix/src/poco-1.7.7-release.tar.gz'
     timeout='600 seconds'
CMake Error at poco-1.7.7-stamp/download-poco-1.7.7.cmake:27 (message):
  error: downloading
  'https://github.com/pocoproject/poco/archive/poco-1.7.7-release.tar.gz'
  failed

    status_code: 7
    status_string: "Couldn't connect to server"
    log:   Trying 192.30.253.113...

  connect to 192.30.253.113 port 443 failed: Connection timed out

    Trying 192.30.253.112...

  connect to 192.30.253.112 port 443 failed: Connection timed out
