Description Julia CLA 2011-07-04 03:35:24 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20110615-0604

I'm behind a proxy, but I've tried a bunch of different ways of putting that information into the Preferences->Network Settings options.  I've tried with and without the username/password combo I need to get onto the internet, and only including some of the options (ie, maybe it will work if I only use HTTP!).

I don't know how I'm supposed to configure this to make Eclipse Indigo connect to the marketplace, given that I know a hostname and port for the proxy, and the username and password that I'm asked for when I open up a web browser.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Help -> Eclipse Marketplace
2. "MarketplaceDiscoveryStrategy failed with an error. ..."
3. Do not pass GO, do not install SVN. Remain sad and alone.

Sorry, I don't know how to categorize this problem.

There used to be a problem with proxies that require authentication, see bug 385936. This has been fixed in the Kepler release.
