Error: Trouble Connecting to MyCroft server

Hello,

I’m running on a Linux machine, actually within a Linux VM on Windows, and I have it in two scenarios.

  1. Not logged into my work network (i.e. - No Proxy)

  2. Logged into my work network (i.e. - Authenticated Proxy)

If I’m running in scenario 1, everything seems to be fine; however this is not the end goal and not what I’m looking to be doing. If I run in scenario 2, I am able to register the device; however whenever I try a command I get a response such as:

“I don’t understand but I’m learning new things every day” or that it is having problems connecting to the MyCroft server. I have set my proxy in linux, both in the environment UI and in the terminal using:

export http_proxy and export https_proxy

with my username/password, proxy, and port. I seem to be able to hit web pages no problem from the browser, as well as https://api.mycroft.ai (which is what I believe it’s trying to hit) based on the logs.

Here’s what I’m seeing in the logs:

skills.log:

Anyone have any thoughts on what I may have missed to make it not work?

Thanks,
