With some packages I have tried to install, I get an error as follows: [curlProblem] In another thread I have been told that probably my files curl.exe and/or powershell.exe are broken. I have checked and they seem to work fine. Also, I have tried in 5 different computers under Windows (laptops, …

That was the problem, I just had to completely turn off my Kaspersky antivirus. THANKS A LOT! :smiley: :+1:

It looks like HTTP.download is the future. Doesn’t look like libcurl or curl is bundled on any other OS. Anyways, the basic issue seems to be on the monitor and more or less solved in future julia releases.

I’m not able to solve this. I downloaded a new version for cURL (but I cannot even change the name of system32/curl.exe, since the computer is administrated by the university and I have not the necessary priviledges) I upgraded Julia to 1.3.0 I changed the find_curl() to nothing etc. I write bec…

Change find_curl() to return the path to your new downloaded curl binary, e.g.: julia> Base.find_curl() = "C:\\path\\to\\downloaded\\curl.exe"

Thanks, but it doesn’t work. I also changed the PATH variable so now is pointing to the newest curl.exe. :cry:

Do you have some errors to show? The PATH variable is not working in this case because: function find_curl() if Sys.isapple() && Sys.isexecutable("/usr/bin/curl") "/usr/bin/curl" elseif Sys.iswindows() && Sys.isexecutable(joinpath(get(ENV, "SYSTEMROOT", "C:\\Windows"), "System32\\c…

The errors are related with cURL Building WebIO ───────────→ `C:\Users\japellaniz\.julia\packages\WebIO\2mZPb\deps\build.log` ┌ Error: Error building `WebIO`: │ [ Info: Downloading WebIO core bundle from unpkg... │ ┌ Error: Download failed: curl: (35) schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext faile…

I think its best for now to edit the source. It is in c:\Users\YOUR_NAME\AppData\Local\Julia-1.3.0\share\julia\base\download.jl I don’t know why redefining Base.find_curl() is ignored and don’t have the time now to find out.

Thanks!! I edited the code. How should I rebuild Base now? Anyone has any idea? I downloaded the julia v1.3 binary and not the whole source code.

create a file called “_curlrc” that contains “insecure” (wihout quote) and place it in your %APPDATA% (echo %APPDATA%). For windows, curlrc file should begin with underscore. https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manual.html

Thank you very much! It did work! … trying to solve this for ages

@Iagoba_Apellaniz just made me aware of this thread - I might have similar issues on a mac, cf. Curl certificate issue with Pkg3 on Mac.
