Network connection problems in Google Cloud SDK while I have access to google or website like google app engine in my browser

Question

I created an account on Google App Engine, then I installed google-cloud-sdk by gcloud init, and get the following error:

Pick configuration to use:
 [1] Re-initialize this configuration [a] with new settings
 [2] Create a new configuration
 [3] Switch to and re-initialize existing configuration: [default]
Please enter your numeric choice:  1

Your current configuration has been set to: [a]

You can skip diagnostics next time by using the following flag:
  gcloud init --skip-diagnostics

I am in China but I can unblock google or website like google app engine in my browser with proxy(setting in shadowsocks2.3). I tried to set a network proxy in google cloud SDK, the IP address and port are exactly the one used in shadowsocks2.3, but it still didn’t work. And my project list couldn’t be accessed. What is the exact problem? Hints or explanations are all appreciated. Many thanks in advance!

Did you follow steps in cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/proxy-settings, can you be more specific what you have tried, and/or include example that someone can replicate your steps? – Bib

I followed the steps according to the hint in SDK. And I have modified the code in question. Is there any problem in the setting process ? – Mcintire

Answer 1

You need to configure your gcloud cli tool to use a proxy.

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/proxy-settings

In my case, I'm using shadow-socks as proxy, so I did:

gcloud config set proxy/type socks5
gcloud config set proxy/address 127.0.0.1
gcloud config set proxy/port 1086

and it works.

Distrust

gcloud config set proxy/type socks5; gcloud config set proxy/address 192.168.31.101 gcloud config set proxy/port 1080 – Ecthyma

Answer 2

To set your host ： 127.0.0.1 and port ： 1080

I have ss in my computer.And when I set like above,it can work well.

Offend

Can you clarify what 'ss' is? – Bushhammer

shadowsocks – Offend
