I have installed Cygwin & curl(through cygwin installer) on my Windows7 32bit. Then opened cygwin terminal and typed curl --help. Everything works fine with curl showing its command arguments list.
But curl http://www.google.com or any other url takes more time and results
“curl: (52) Empty reply from server
“. What is the problem?
Update:Iam behind a proxy server. Any pblm with that?
If your proxy server is the only way to get out at the web, then yes, that’s the problem. Curl couldn’t care less about what OS you’re running under, so won’t get for OS-specific proxy settings (ie: Internet Explorer options), so it’ll try to do a direct connection. Try adding the
--proxyoption (curl --helpwill give the format).
