https_proxy url is wrong but i set correctly.

 

my shell script  is  curl "https://media4.giphy.com/media/xc8HEtzrBTcCA/giphy-preview.gif" -v --output "/Users/qhe/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Data/cn.alanhe.giphy/xc8HEtzrBTcCA_preview.gif"

 

If I execute directly at the terminal it is works.

The instructions in your screenshot: “These may be missing the scheme component, which you can set above”.

 

You’re not supposed to add the whole URL, just http:// or https://

Thank you.

 

I misunderstood this setting, now works.

Thank you for the detailed instructions! Correct setup is an important point. I once misconfigured a proxy, and then had problems. A wrongly configured proxy server actually causes a number of problems: from disclosure of anonymity, to blocking all the accounts that you have registered, or used with wrongly configured parameters. I've been using https://soax.com/ proxy on my mac for a really long time now, it's a great product, recommend it to everybody. I also advise to use IP checking services, such as proxy checker, or third party browser extensions. This`s a great tool if you doubt the correct work of your proxy.
