Hi,
Running into the same problem. as #169 #250 #303 
already tried the sudo rm -rf ~/.cache/luarocks and tried again.
And still get the same error. @soumith 

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](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11211705/setting-proxy-in-wget), [Curl proxy](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7559103/how-to-setup-curl-to-permanently-use-a-proxy) & [git proxy](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/783811/getting-git-to-work-with-a-proxy-server)

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](https://github.com/keplerproject/luarocks/wiki/LuaRocks-through-a-proxy) post as well.

The error I get when i try to install this is

```
$sudo luarocks install cunn

what makes you want to use sudo? Did you install torch with instructions from our website, or via some other method?

Hi,

I am sorry for exhuming this topic, but I have exactly the same issue than the OP.
Same but not running the command under sudo. I installed the lib through the Torch website, step by step.
I am using the torch dedicated rock tree, the env variables are correctly set, as well as the proxy
I have already tried the sudo rm -rf ~/.cache/luarocks but it won't make it work...
The error log :

$ luarocks install dp

Hi Tristan.

There's a script that tries to fix bad artifacts. Run that, and give things a trie after. Also, check that you can download a file directly via wget to ensure proxy works okay (wget -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/torch/rocks/master/manifest  ):

Finally I got it worked !
thanks a lot, that was a httpS_proxy issue that was killing me. I checked the http_proxy but the other was not correctly set !
I also performed the clean-old.sh script to be sure.

Thanks again, for your reactivity as well, it helped a lot.
