I’ve got this command in a bash script:

TEST=$(curl -o /dev/null -s -k -w "%{http_code}" -u "${USERNAME}:${PASSWORD}" "${URL}/dashboard/")
echo "${TEST}" #debug

When the script runs, the output is “000”.

When I run the same curl command from the shell, the output is “200” (which is correct, since the URL is valid).

I verified that the USERNAME, PASSWORD, and URL vars are being passed to the subshell.

I’d appreciate it if you could point out what I’m doing wrong here. :)

UPDATE: This has been solved.

    Add echo before your curl command to see what the expanded command line actually is. Perhaps the arguments aren’t as you expect them

      Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried this: echo-ed the curl command to stdout and then in the shell copied it and pasted it to run it. From the script I get “000”, from the shell I get “200”.
