Proxy Settings for Windows 7 Command Prompt
cmd, curl, proxy, windows
Solution
You can set your proxy using a `set` command in windows:
set http_proxy=http://<yourproxyaddress>:<port>
Then you can connect your curl requests to external sites.
Problem
I am trying to use cURL in the Command Prompt, but I dont understand where I have problems. I have been told that I need to configure a proxy tothe Command Prompt so that it can access the sites I am calling on. This is what I want to run: `curl -glob "api.fda.gov/drug/event.json?&search=receivedate:[20040101+TO+20150101]&limit=1"` I have cURL installed, but always face errors because it is not connecting. Is there a simple way to set up a proxy for/through the Command Prompt in Windows 7? I also do not have admin rights, so I cannot change the system settings.
