Hi Guys

I am trying to install Galaxy on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.7 (Tikanga). I have installed Python 2.6.  Our server is behind a proxy that needs to be authenticated. I have set up the proxy for Mercurial as described in http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hgrc.5#http-proxy

Now Mercurial is working and I have cloned the repository, however, when I issue sh run.sh command I get the following error. Though I have set the environment variable http_proxy by issuing export command on command line:

export HTTP_PROXY=UserName:MyUniPass@servername.edu.au:8080

I have also tried various export syntax such as:

export http_proxy=http://UserName:MyUniPass@ servername.edu.au:8080

I suspect Python is not reading the proxy setting to access internet. Help please.

Some eggs are out of date, attempting to fetch...

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "./scripts/fetch_eggs.py", line 30, in ?

    c.resolve() # Only fetch eggs required by the config

  File "/opt/galaxy-dist/lib/galaxy/eggs/__init__.py", line 345, in resolve

Fetch failed.
