Why does downloading installation files fail when using the command prompt when connecting with a proxy?

Environment

    Quartus® II Subscription Edition
BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

If you are using a proxy to access the Internet, the command-line installer may fail unless you specify all of the following options for your proxy settings when installing Altera software:

  • --proxyhost=<PROXYHOST>
  • --username=<USERNAME>
  • --password=<PASSWORD>

PROXYHOST should be in the format of <HOST>:<PORT>. Additionally, you must specify one of the following options depending on which type of proxy you have:

  • --proxy-basic
  • --proxy-ntlm
  • --proxy-digest

For a complete list of options, please refer to Quartus® II Help. You can also include the --help option in the command prompt for a description of supported options.

Resolution This problem is fixed beginning with the Quartus II software version 12.0.
