Answer 1

I added the following line to .bashrc.
export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy -Dhttp.proxyPort=port -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxy -Dhttps.proxyPort=port"
It works fine.

Answer 2

If you are in behind the proxy(corporate network)
For windows :
In sbt installation folder, go to conf/sbtconfig.txt file just add the following lines and save and try.
-Dhttp.proxyHost=proxy
-Dhttp.proxyPort=portno
-Dhttp.proxyUser=UserId
-Dhttp.proxyPassword=Password
-Dhttps.proxyHost=proxyhost
-Dhttps.proxyPort=portno
-Dhttps.proxyUser=UserId
-Dhttps.proxyPassword=Password
For Linux/Unix:
export JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dhttp.proxyHost=proxyHost -Dhttp.proxyPort=proxyPortNumber -Dhttp.proxyUser=UserId -Dhttp.proxyPassword=Password -Dhttps.proxyHost=proxyHost -Dhttps.proxyPort=proxyPortNumber -Dhttps.proxyUser=UserId -Dhttps.proxyPassword=Password"
It worked for me too.

I was able to finally get IntelliJ to work by configuring HTTP Proxy in IntelliJ itself. Here's what my configurations look like (Note: provide your network username and password in related boxes):-
