Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/2421

User Story

If a large download fails using curl it does not cause a fatal error instead it simply carries on.

Basic info

  • Command: Install

Further Information

It is worth checking how all downloads handle when failing to ensure they cause a fatal exit.

To Reproduce

Use a game server that is non-steam and cause the download to fail

Expected behaviour

well i think maybe it has something do to with cloudflare, some user also report theres trouble downloading large file(1GB+) and myself experienced sudden throttle while download such large file, im thinking whether is it a good idea to move to some other CDN services. For free, incapsula, or cheap cdn service, like FDCserver's (5USD/TB)

The failure was because the file didn't exist when developing a game. There is no error checking in place currently for failed curl downloads.

There's a few incidents where a command is expected to finish successfully, or error reporting doesn't retry/exit the script (tar extracts is another instance). We need to agree on an exit code or strategy when these happen...
