curl: request is missing authentication header - authentication header there


curl: request is missing authentication header - authentication header there



to Add more context: I am trying to make a curl request to the Seamless.gov API. On a different computer the same curl command works. However, when I run the curl command on my machine it doesn't work.


curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Date: 1530285602" -H "Authorization: HMAC-SHA256 api_key=XXXXXXXX nonce=12335 signature=XXXXXXXXXXXXX" -d 'false' https://nycopp.seamlessdocs.com/api/form/CO1708XXXXXXXXXXXXX/elements



I have the following version of curl:


curl


curl: stable 7.60.0 (bottled), HEAD [keg-only] Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS or FTP server https://curl.haxx.se/ /usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.60.0 (423 files, 3MB) Poured from bottle on 2018-06-29 at 11:44:32 From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/curl.rb
==> Dependencies Build: pkg-config ✔ Optional: openssl ✘, rtmpdump ✘, libssh2 ✘, c-ares ✘, libmetalink ✘, nghttp2 ✘
==> Options
--with-c-ares Build with C-Ares async DNS support
--with-gssapi Build with GSSAPI/Kerberos authentication support.
--with-libmetalink Build with libmetalink support.
--with-libssh2 Build with scp and sftp support
--with-nghttp2 Build with HTTP/2 support (requires OpenSSL)
--with-openssl Build with OpenSSL instead of Secure Transport
--with-rtmpdump Build with RTMP support
--HEAD Install HEAD version
==> Caveats This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because macOS already provides this software and installing another version in parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.

If you need to have this software first in your PATH run: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/curl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile

For compilers to find this software you may need to set:
LDFLAGS: -L/usr/local/opt/curl/lib
CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/curl/include For pkg-config to find this software you may need to set:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH: /usr/local/opt/curl/lib/pkgconfig



Same curl command works on another machine but not on mines, could it be an issue with the version or the operating system. I'm running on Mac OS High Sierra


curl

There is one hint in the error message:



==> Caveats This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local, because macOS already provides this software and installing another version in parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.



OS X already has curl installed and this binary is used. This version does not work with your request. To find out where homebrew has installed curl execute:


ll /usr/local/opt/curl



You will get an output like that:


lrwxr-xr-x 1 maltebuchmann admin 21B Jun 30 09:50 /usr/local/opt/curl -> ../Cellar/curl/7.60.0



With that info you can execute your above command:


/usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.60.0/bin/curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Date: 1530285602" -H "Authorization: HMAC-SHA256 api_key=XXXXXXXX nonce=12335 signature=XXXXXXXXXXXXX" -d 'false' https://nycopp.seamlessdocs.com/api/form/CO1708XXXXXXXXXXXXX/elements



You can follow the printed instructions to add the installation folder to your path:



If you need to have this software first in your PATH run: echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/curl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile



Or, you can forcefully link it with homebrew:


brew link curl --force



But do this at your own risk :)





can I delete the curl version installed thru brew and just have the one already installed with OS X?

curl





OS X's curl version is causing the problems. The homebrew version fixes it and is just not accessible by default. The steps above fixes the accessibility.

So it works if I make the curl command using the steps above but what if I would like to set curl to default the version install via brew? I mean so I don't have to run usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.60.0/bin/curl everytime and just use curl

usr/local/Cellar/curl/7.60.0/bin/curl


curl





You can either add the path /usr/local/opt/curl/bin to your $PATH variable (see above) or try to link it with the --force option (see above). Former approach is recommended.

/usr/local/opt/curl/bin


--force

Opening a url is failing in Swift

Opening a url is failing in Swift breakpointing inside the callback and logging success shows false.

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV

Export result set on Dbeaver to CSV Normally I use Dbeaver for windows and always export my result set like this: run my query --> select the result --> export the result set --> select export to clipboard --> done This step by step puts my result set in my clipboard and I can paste it wherever I want to work with it. The problem is that now I am using dbeaver for mac and this guide is not working. I can go on until the moment that I select my result set like in the image below: exporting data set But once I go further in the process, in the last step I get: no query Note that in "source" it was suppose to show the query that originated the result set, but instead it says just "select. As a result it does't select my result or anything (besides being "successful"). Normally my query would show up there automatically and I couldn't find any option that corrects this problem in the menus. Please help me! Thanks. Aft...
