Hi, When I set the HTTP_PROXY env var to user:pass@http://proxy.monash.edu.au:8080 and run gem to install Rials, I get the following error: C:\Documents and Settings\Behrang>gem install rails --remote ERROR: While executing gem ... (URI::InvalidURIError) can not set user with registry or opaque Any ideas what is probably causing the error and how can I fix it? (The environment is Win XP) Regards, Behi -- "Science is a differential equation.
