I am following one post in group which already has been discussed about installing MFIX 19.1 on windows. Almost same type of issue but mine is linux system. I have added proxy servers settings in condarc file but still same issue pertaining.

conda env create -n mfix-19.1 mfix/mfix-19.1-linux64

Can someone help? I have read lot about connection setting of anaconda for proxy. I have tried but, problem is not resolved.

Sorry, I have never used conda behind a (non-transparent) proxy.
Does your proxy require a username/password? There isn’t one in your proxy_servers config.

https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/configuration/use-condarc.html#configure-conda-for-use-behind-a-proxy-server-proxy-servers
says it will get settings from HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY. You could try setting those environment variables.

Thanks Mark,

I have overcome this issue but not by resolving the proxy issue. Actually procedure described to install MFIX:

conda env create -n mfix-19.1 mfix/mfix-19.1-linux64
source activate mfix-19.1
conda install mfix -c https://govind:XXXX@mfix.netl.doe.gov/conda/dist

Instead I tried with this and it worked it:

conda create -n mfix-19.1
conda activate mfix-19.1
conda install mfix -c https://govind:XXXX@mfix.netl.doe.gov/conda/dist

Is this fine?

Your post was edited to remove your user key. Please refrain from posting this information in the future.

#5

Yes, if the second method works for you, that’s fine. (Perhaps only anaconda.org is inaccessible for you.)

We suggest using the mfix/mfix-19.1-linux64 environment because it has dependencies that we believe most users would want, but it is not necessarily. Installing with your second method will install all dependencies required by MFiX.

#6

Thanks Mark for clearing the installation issue.
