Folks,
Bottom line up front -- how do I tell vs_buildtools.exe inside a Docker container to use a proxy?
I'm following the instructions on docs.microsoft.com for installing VS Build Tools into a container. The installer errors out with exit code 5003. I made two minor changes to the Dockerfile. First, I'm using an earlier base image (-1803 instead of -ltsc2019) because my organization hasn't yet deployed a more recent Windows build. Second, I requested Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.VCTools (no --includeRecommended) instead of '--all except for a bunch of SDKs' to cut down on size.
I'm pretty sure this is a proxy issue. I'm able to download files from HTTPS URIs without incident if I use Invoke-WebRequest directly from Powershell as long as I supply proxy information. Also, the firewall logs for the host showed the Docker container trying to connect directly to aka.ms.
Here is what I believe is the most relevant snippet from the installer logs.
