vzpkgcache behind proxy [message #7001]

I am sitting behind a proxy with authentication. Using yum (not vzyum) works, when I change from bash to sh and enter:

export http_proxy=http://proxy.customer.ch:3128/
export ftp_proxy=http://proxy.customer.ch:3128/
export proxy_username=some.name
export proxy_password=******

additionally I had to change the standard /etc/nsswitch.conf of CentOS from old:
passwd: files
shadow: files
group: files
etc....

to new:
passwd: compat
shadow: files
group: compat

THEN using yum works. But vzpkgcache fails with this error message:

# vzpkgcache centos-4

WTF?

Try setting proxy, proxy_username and proxy_password in /vz/template/centos/4/*/config/yum.conf. See man yum.conf for details.

Hi!

My yum.conf (proxy with authentication):

# more /vz/template/centos/4/i386/config/yum.conf
[main]
cachedir=/vz/template/centos/4/i386/yum-cache/
# Ugly hack to make yum disregard /etc/yum.repos.d/*repo files
# from both the host system and from inside VPS
reposdir=/dev/null
# Fix for bug #78 - we do not want to install dummy,
# we want to upgrade it.
installonlypkgs=''
proxy=http://proxy.myhome.ch:3128/
proxy_username=rookie.myhome
proxy_password=ProxyPWD

[centos4-vz-addons]
name=OpenVZ add-ons for CentOS 4 - i386
baseurl=file:///vz/template/centos/4/i386/vz-addons/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

[centos4-base]
name=CentOS 4 - i386 - Base
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1

[centos4-updates-released]
name=CentOS 4 - i386 - Released Updates
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/updates/i386/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1

So i try vzpkgcache:

# vzpkgcache centos-4

Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories

i tried it with wget and with a browser to download the xml file, and it works through the proxy. but using vzyum it doesn't Shocked

vzyum seems to have a bug in some authenticated proxy environments !?

---------------------------
# vzyum 234 update
exec /usr/share/vzyum/bin/yum -c /vz/template/centos/4/i386/config/yum.conf --installroot /home/vz/root/234 --vps=234 update
