Hello,

I'm trying to create a netget proxy for the chocolatey.org community feed. For that, I've used this groovy snippet:

  // create a chocolatey proxy repository backed by the default blob store.
  repository.createNugetProxy("chocolatey.org-proxy", "https://chocolatey.org/api/v2/", "default")

But when I tried to use it from nuget it didn't work:

  nuget install notepad2 -Source http://localhost:8081/repository/chocolatey-proxy/



Nexus does not seem to produce any log entries about this, maybe I need to enable the verbose mode? I've enabled the TRACE level in the ROOT and on org.sonatype.nexus.httpclient.outbound loggers, but that didn't seem to do any difference, as I didn't see any info there. So I'm kinda lost and need your help to troubleshoot this.

-- RGL

PS Directly accessing the feed worked fine:

  nuget install notepad2 -Source https://chocolatey.org/api/v2/

I forgot to mention, I'm using nexus 3.0.0 and 3.1.0, and both behave the same.

I just tried it here using Nexus 3.1.0, and it worked with out issue, I can install notepad2 through a proxy repository whose remote is configured for https://chocolatey.org/api/v2/.

Check the nexus.log file, you'll likely find there is some network error.

Rui,

I believe based on your usage of 'chocolatey.org-proxy' in your repo creation script you source URL will need to be 'http://localhost:8081/repository/chocolatey.org-proxy/'.

You can always copy the URL from the Repositories view in the UI to make sure you get the correct one.

Cheers,
-Brad
