> Agent can not download (update) modified stack scripts/templates from the server if there is a problem with proxy configuration. That is because python's urllib2.urlopen() function also tries to make use of proxies.
> From the docs:
> {code}
> The urlopen() function works transparently with proxies which do not require authentication. In a Unix or Windows environment, set the http_proxy, or ftp_proxy environment variables to a URL that identifies the proxy server before starting the Python interpreter
> {code}
> I've created a separate jira to be able to provide fix for BUG-17737 as soon as possible
> STR:
> # Create 2-node cluster
> # Install server&agent
> # Define wrong proxy on both hosts e.g. 
> {code}
> export http_proxy="http://8.8.8.8:23"
> {code}
> # Restart ambari-agent from the same shell to make use of this proxy
> # Try modifying some service scripts at ambari-server
> # Restart ambari-server
> # Ambari-agent should download updated scripts to a local cache (during installation of the relevant stack), but he can not do that due to proxy settings. There are error messages at log about that. 
> Possible solution:  Disable proxy settings when creating urllib2 opener (at FileCache)
> The same urllib2 is used at Controller, so agent might not be able to connect to ambari-server at all with wrong proxy settings. But I did not notice such behaviour for some reason
