IntelliJ use system proxy settings

Posted on April 3, 2017 by manuel

• Go to the IntelliJ installation folder and open the bin-directory
• Add “-Djava.net.useSystemProxies=true” at the end of the idea64.vmoptions file (without 64 on a 32-bit system)
• Restart IntelliJ and configure it to automatically configure proxy (Settings > Appearance & Behavior > System Settings > HTTP Proxy)
