unable to contact snap store error message when trying to install PyCharm on Ubuntu
Question:
My Ubuntu 20.04 is connected to the Internet and I used update and upgrade commands on the machine and it’s up to date now. But when I type sudo snap install pycharm-community --classic to install PyCharm Community version, it returns back this error: error: unable to contact snap store.
What to do next, please?
I also searched for the program on Ubuntu Software, but it can’t find the app either!
Answers:
It was possible and done very easily, after struggling too much with snap, Ubuntu software and facing failure on each, to download and install PyCharm Community using Toolbox App.
Try updating the proxy settings with these commands:
sudo snap set system proxy.http="http://<proxy_addr>:<proxy_port>"
sudo snap set system proxy.https="http://<proxy_addr>:<proxy_port>"
