Cannot download with Curl and Wget in AWS EC2 Linux server-CodePudding

I am using the EC2 server with Putty.

I want to download the latest sonar-scanner to the EC2 server.

I tried to access the download-URL using both Wget & Curl but they kept failing with the same messages.

This is the server system I use: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.8 (Maipo)

WGET

GNU Wget 1.14 built on linux-gnu.

[root@ip-10-X-X-X ~]# wget -v https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-4.7.0.2747-linux.zip

I'm new with using this EC2 server. Do you know what could I do to solve this?

Thank you, any help would be really appreciated!

If you are not a root user ,need to add sudo in command before downloading try using this command and download "sudo wget https://sonarsource.bintray.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-3.0.3.778.zip"

CodePudding user response：

Have you tried to update the OS and try to use the wget command without the -v flag like this:

wget https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-4.7.0.2747-linux.zi

you can also add --no-check-certificate or you can modify the ~/.wgetrc file and add

check_certificate = off

You can do this two things if you trust the host, hope this helps
