Failed to install using bash on Windows

[lucasssvaz]

Describe the problem

Since the latest release I can't install through the script. It originally started happening in our CI and I tested locally to make sure it is also happening.

https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/actions/runs/9957218514/job/27508776142

As seen on the CI, this only happens in Windows.

Hello, I just tried on a Windows machine with git bash installed and everything seems to work just fine:

Additionally, if you are installing the arduino-cli in a workflow I recommend using https://github.com/arduino/setup-arduino-cli

Just run it again on a fresh install with git bash on Win 10 and same error happens:

Could you run with curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arduino/arduino-cli/master/install.sh | bash -x so we have a bit more logs?

I tried the same and on my PC I get:

+++ curl -s -w '%{http_code}' -L https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip -o /tmp/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip
++ GETFILE_HTTP_STATUS_CODE=200
++ echo 200
+ httpStatusCode=200

it seems that your curl returns 000 instead of 200 🤔
could you try:

curl -s -w '%{http_code}' -L https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip -o /tmp/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip

Also a curl --version mine is:

Please, try:

curl -I -L https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip

(sorry for the long testing I'm a bit lost here... I'm trying to figure out what's happening with your curl)

$ curl -s -w '%{http_code}\n' -fL https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip ; echo "Exit code: $?"
000
Exit code: 43

From MAN:

43
Internal error. A function was called with a bad parameter.

BTW, If I do:

curl -L https://downloads.arduino.cc/arduino-cli/arduino-cli_1.0.3_Windows_64bit.zip -o arduino-cli.zip

It downloads fine.

[cmaglie]

At this point, I'm wondering if it's better to check both the exit code AND the HTTP status code (that may be 000 that means... "something" happened...).
I'm also keen to remove the -s, it will be a bit more verbose in normal conditions but will help to diagnose the problem in case of errors.
