"bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/splashkit/skm/master/install-scripts/skm-install.sh)" does nothing
Solution(s)
1: Check Internet Connection
Make sure your device is connected to the internet, as this command depends on a stable connection to access the script online.
2: Temporarily Disable Firewall
Sometimes, a MacOS firewall may block the terminal from downloading content. To check if this is the issue, temporarily disable your firewall:
- Open System Preferences and go to Security & Privacy.
- Select the Firewall tab.
- Click Turn Off Firewall temporarily and retry the command.
Once the installation completes, you can re-enable the firewall for security.
3: Manually Download and Run the Script
If the command still doesn’t respond, you can manually download and execute the script as follows:
-
Go to the skm-install.sh script.
-
Click the “Download raw file” button (see below):
-
Save the file to an easily accessible location, such as the Downloads folder.
-
Open Terminal and type the command
bash
(with a space after the word). -
Drag the downloaded file from Finder into the Terminal window, then press Enter to run it.
