[Locomotive-users] Proxy problems with Locomotive gem

[Brendan Arnold]

Hi there,

When I try to install a gem (using a Terminal launched from the
Locomotive window, with the correct paths etc) I get the following
error

Brendan-Arnolds-Computer% sudo gem install login_generator
Password:
Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteSourceException)
    Error fetching remote gem cache: 407 Proxy Authentication Required

$HTTP_PROXY is correctly set for the terminal session. What is bizarre
is that I have compiled my own ruby/gem combo and installed it in
/usr/local, when using an ordinary Terminal session (with /usr/local
first in the $PATH) I have no trouble with the above command - gems
install fine.

This happens both for the Standard Rails bundle as wel as the rMagick
bundle. I have re-downloaded/reinstalled both Locomotive and the
bundle (January versions) but to no avail.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

I am using a MacBook pro (intel).

Regards,

Brendan
