Error: Get snap under proxy configuration

snapd
1

Everytime I try to download any package using snap I get errors like this:
error: cannot install “intellij”: Post
https://api.snapcraft.io/v2/snaps/refresh: proxyconnect tcp: tls:
oversized record received with length 20527

How can I fix that?

what proxy are you using?

googling that error leads me to believe you have set https_proxy=https://<something> when you might need it to be https_proxy=http://<something> instead.

I’m using a company proxy that works for everything here but didn’t work for snap.
I put it as environment variable and in snap settings.

I tried both, http and https.

could you show me the output of

sudo cat /proc/`pidof snapd`/environ | tr '\0' '\n'

please?

I made it.
I runned this command.
sudo snap set system proxy.http=http://127.0.0.1:3128
sudo snap set system proxy.https=http://127.0.0.1:3128
and installed the snaps in the same session of the root.

When a use sudo for each command didn’t work.

Also, we can remove the proxy by:

sudo snap set system proxy.http=
sudo snap set system proxy.https=
