PyCharm Error Loading Package List

Question

I just downloaded PyCharm the other day and wanted to download a few packages. I’m using Windows 10 with PyCharm 2016.2.2 and python 3.5.2. When I go to the available packages screen it continually states:

Error loading package list:pypi.python.org

I was just trying to download BeautifulSoup and I’m clearly missing something. Any help would be wonderful.

Answer

I am behind a corporate firewall and had this problem. All I had to do was go to Settings/Appearance and Behavior/System Settings/HTTP Proxy and check Auto-detect proxy settings and it worked.
