-f regression

FYI,

Bug report #3481223 properly identified a regression when -f is used with a 
[]-range in a URL. It worked in 7.22 and the commit that broke the old 
behavior is fa775b56de777.

I've come up with a test case for this, test1328 is attached.

I've not yet produced a proper fix, as my first naive approach turned out to 
fix this problem but break some existing tests.

Reading url request from a file ?

Hi,

I would like to use curl but reading headers which I send from a file
such http://pastebin.com/TcP0UVbd

I'm thiniking in shell scripting (perl, awk ..), but maybe there is
another easy method to do it

I would like something like curl --read-request-from-file myfile

I didn't find any like it in internet, but probabbly someone though
in that before

Do you have any idea or  I need to write an bash function which
convert headers to -H curl switch , and use $() bash operator (and add
data post which is included in the file too)?

Thanks !

Character encoding problem in windows when using --data-binary and special characters like 'Ñ'

Hi.
I'm Ricardo Vila and i'm new to this mailing list.

Briefly: i'm facing a problem using command line curl in windows
platforms to send data stored in properties files. I hope somebody can
point me a solution.

Te complete situation is as follows. At Teimas, we have one app wich
accepts REST requests. This requests has a lot of fields so our
clients store the parameters in a properties file and then send it
with curl and the --data-binary option. Something like this (windows
example):

curl.exe -i -u :'some_token' -H "Accept: application/x-yaml" -H
"Content-type: text/plain" http://ourserver.com/api/nt/ --data-binary
@file.properties -X POST

This works fine running curl form linux and windows. But in windows
appears one problem when in the properties file, appears something
like this:

    documento.productor.centro.nombre=XESTION A CORUÑA, S.A.

The Ñ character is encoded (in windows clients) in a way that our
server cannot handle it and the rest of the line is trunked. So the
value on our server for this example is 'XESTION A CORU'

We have tried many things like:

  - Use --data-urlencode option (with and without changing content-type)
  - Use --data option
  - Use --data-urlencode with -crlf
  - May combination of the above options

I know that de manual page says ' The contents of the file must
already be URL-encoded.' but i wonder if i can let curl command manage
this.
¿I'm missing something? ¿Any idea?

Thanks in advance

CURL Command line tool change SFTP Cipher

Hi There

Can you please let me know if there's any command line switches one can
use to instruct CURL to use certain "Cipher" switches when we need to
SFTP to some host that supports the none Cipher switch. I'm looking at
reducing the overhead of SSH encryption and speed up the SFTP transfers,
by implementing the “none” cipher. From the HP-UX documentation they
specify these as follows. I'm using curl to SFTP to a couple of host to
pull certain files but I do not see any command line switches in the man
pages if I want to use "Ciphers" there's also no man pages to indicate
if CURL or LibCurl will use the ssh config file I've setup on the system
for the particular account I'm using to initiate the SFTP session from.

Q: What is the NONE Cipher Switch?
A: The NONE cipher switch disables data encryption AFTER you have been
authenticated or logged into the remote host. This can significantly
reduce the load on the CPUs of both machines and may improve performance
even more. Its important to remember that the initial authentication
process is still fully encrypted. Additionally, while the data is no
longer encrypted each packet is still digitially signed and protected
against in transit manipulation of the information. Anytime the NONE
cipher is used a warning will be printed to screen saying "WARNING: NONE
CIPHER ENABLED". If you do not see that warning then the None cipher is
not in use.

I did some a comparison between blowfish, arcfour and  none. Below are
the results (using the SFTP client from the HP-UX machine), if you could
let me know if CURL and LibCurl got any similar switches I can use to
accomplish the below.

"address already in use" error

Hello!

I'm having difficulties in using curl (windows) with several proxies
simultaneously.

I'm running 8 instances of curl with a unique proxy assigned to each,
they all run very well until they start dropping off  one by one with
the error 'address already in use',

The command line options (aside from the proxy) are: curl
--connect-timeout 999 -v --retry 5, but from what I've read the error
I'm experiencing will always halt Curl and it will never actually
'retry'.

Curl is a great piece of software, but if anyone could help me with this
niggle, then that'd be great!

Problem uploading to a subdirectory

I can access and upload to the default directory but if I try to list or
upload to the subfolder "in" I get errors.

The following works:

# curl -k -u user:pass --ftp-ssl ftp://ftp.url.com:2130

And returns:

drwxr-x---  2 gcs21si  System            0 Jan 24 03:36 .
drwxr-x---  2 gcs21si  System            0 Jan 10 11:45 ..

drwxr-x---  2 gcs21si  System            0 Jan 24 13:11 Out

# curl -k -T tfile -u user:pass --ftp-ssl ftp://ftp.url.com:2130

Also works and uploads the file.

When I try to access the subfolder "in" with either of these paths I get the
errors indicated.

# curl -k -u user:pass --ftp-ssl ftp://ftp.url.com:2130/users/user/in
I get curl: (9) Server denied you to change to the given directory

# curl -k -u user:pass --ftp-ssl ftp://ftp.url.com:2130/in
I get curl: (19) RETR response: 550

I'm able to login to the server with Filezilla and access all subfolders.

If I try to upload a file I get the following:

# curl -k -T tfile -u user:pass --ftp-ssl ftp://ftp.url.com:2130/in
I get curl: (25) Failed FTP upload: 550

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Scott
