Google Gemini API Error: "Error fetching from https://generative... generateContent: fetch failed"

[slayeryahu]

Hi, I use clash as my http/https proxy client. I need this proxy to access google gemini. Google Gemini is currently accessible through my browser, but it doesn't work in vscode claude dev (lastest version)

I have done the proxy config in the settings.

Begging your reply. Thank you!

I will look into this as soon as I can! In the meantime can you try using OpenAI compatible and see if you can get it working that way?

I have the same problem. Claude dev use Google Gemini request url is":generateContent", [GoogleGenerativeAI Error]: Error fetching from https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-1.5-flash-latest:generateContent: fetch failed. But I see Continue use"streamGenerateContent" is work, [https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-1.5-flash-latest:streamGenerateContent?key=your key], Continue can use Gemini, But Claude dev can't use Gemini, please check, thank you.

Sorry I can't use OPENAI's product. And my gemini api account was locked after testing claude dev....

Google said I can't use gemini with other competitive models, my project was banned forever.

I use litellm converting gemini api into openai compatible api, but only get error 400: no body

Is there a way to use OpenAI compatible without an API key? My proxy does not require an api key but if one is provided it ceases to work :c

I would appreciate your response. Thanks!

I'm also experiencing this problem, please let me know how it's being handled now, thanks!

the same problem

Maybe, it's caused by network problem. In my country, we need to set http proxy in Visual Studio Code to access google service. Other plugins works. However, Claude Dev has the problem. When I change network to another wifi (openwrt installed with shadowsocks), Claude Dev works! It seem that Claude Dev didn't use the http proxy set in Visual Studio Code. I'm on macOS.

The same problem here , I'm using Pluckeye as a proxy!

Hi @slayeryahu , I'm doing some repo management and closing out any irreproducible or resolved Cline issues.

If you update to the newest version of Cline (3.17.15) or newer, do you still encounter this issue? I'll be closing this issue as stale, if I don't get a reply in 1 week.

Thanks for reporting this proxy connectivity issue! This has been consolidated into #4355, which provides a comprehensive solution for HTTP proxy support across all API providers including Google Gemini.
