Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open Extension Gallery
2. Search for 'test'

The extension gallery is no longer working.

For a longer amount of days the version gallery seems to be broken at my office pc, which is behind a corporate proxy.

I always get a net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED when the gallery tries to fetch

My vscode was set up with proxy credentials in config before. This did work for a long time very well. i was actually able to download extensions, after @joaomoreno fixed an early version in beginning of 2016 and uploaded it here for testing (sorry i dont fint the thread right now). This bugfix got merged in the official version later and worked fine. But as of 3 Months or so its no longer working.

When using google i found this page: http://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/setup-overview

I tried switching to env variables. But this does not work either, so i guess its a problem with vscode itself

I switched to HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY env variables now, which seems to be the recommended option. But this doesn't work either.

I try to analyze / debug the errors on my own now, too. maybe i can help.

Can you provide some input in #18103 ?

[FloMaetschke]

You can find the results here: #18103 (comment)

Thx so much for your efforts, great idea with this http proxy unit test ;)

[FloMaetschke]

any chance to get a solution soon?

[joaomoreno]

This happens due to the use of XHR in the renderer. cc @jrieken

Soon, but not this month yet, very busy with other stuff. I'll make it a priority for March.
