(elasticsearch/server-jre8) Installation behind proxy

[tobias-kuendig]

Expected Behaviour

I am trying to install elasticsearch on a system that sits behind a proxy. This fails to install it's dependecy server-jre8. So I tried to install that first manually via

choco install server-jre8 -y  --proxy="'<REMOVED>:8080'"

This is the output:

Chocolatey v0.10.7

It looks like the download of the package is sucessfull (proxy settings are corectly loaded) but the chocolateyInstall.ps1 script that downloads the actual software completely ignores the proxy settings.

Expected Behaviour

Since I provide a --proxy flag to the command I expect the chocolateyInstall.ps1 script to use these proxy settings as well. If I omit the --proxy flag chocolatey correctly uses my global system settings but the install script fails nonetheless.

Please contact the maintainer of the server-jre package, this package is not being provided in this repository (same is true for the elasticsearch package).
