Install Failed, Fix below. #401

Install failed, looks like one of the links for chocolatey has gone down.

https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1 results in 404.

The following works as an alternate link:

Hah, I just logged in to GitHub to open the very same issue. I was struggling for a bit as there was not a single error message that would indicate what is actually an issue.

This should be fixed by boxstarter, because the link https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1 has been the default for years. Not only FLARE-VM is affected, probably many other software is failing because of this problem. The issue is being tracked here

The link provided above is a nice temporary fix to get the installation script of FLARE-VM to work, but it points to the master branch (which is in active development). A better fix should use the latest release (v2.13.0) to get bootstrapper.ps1

A Better Alternate Link

Thanks for bringing this up. I would recommend not using a static raw link to an old Boxstarter release, we'll fix the corresponding issue on our site asap. sorry for the inconvenience.

Please note this issue has been resolved and should not occur anymore.
