curl nvm doesn't work on OS X #209

Closed bjarthur closed 10 years ago

bjarthur commented 10 years ago

in "step 1: install dev tools", this command does not work as expected on OS X 10.9.4:

curl https://raw.github.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | sh

i had to manually cut and paste the install.sh into a file and chmod u+x it.

What was the error? Did you not have a curl command?

Unless the script changed to try and execute itself, that should have worked if chmod +x worked..

i have curl installed. the problem seems to be that curl is not retrieving any content

$ curl https://raw.github.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh | sh

You are right! curl -O https://raw.github.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh gives curl: Remote file name has no length!. Seems that url redirects to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/master/install.sh and curl doesn't follow redicts by default. I'll change the docs to add -L flag to curl. Thanks!
