GVM: Issue when installing GVM in Ubuntu 14.04

Question

I am new to GVM according to its documentation when i run the following command to install GVM there is no output display on terminal like:

james@james-K52F:~$ curl -s get.gvmtool.net | bash
james@james-K52F:~$ 

When i run the command after CURL, i am getting following error:

james@james-K52F:~$ gvm
No command 'gvm' found, but there are 20 similar ones
gvm: command not found

When i hit the CURL command without -s flag, then getting following error:

james@james-K52F:~$ curl get.gvmtool.net | bash
% Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time    Current

How could i resolve these issue and install GVM on my system?

Update

This problem, is solved using following command:

james@james-K52F:~$ sudo curl --ipv4 get.gvmtool.net | bash

But now the problem is that, when i run the above command, GVM installation process is start but the following error are produces:

------------------

 latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on

All done!

Please open a new terminal, or run the following in the existing one:

source "/home/james/.gvm/bin/gvm-init.sh"

Then issue the following command:

gvm help

Enjoy!!!

After that when i run source "/home/james/.gvm/bin/gvm-init.sh" on new terminal i got the following error:

james@james-K52F:~$ source "/home/james/.gvm/bin/gvm-init.sh"
bash: /home/james/.gvm/bin/gvm-init.sh: No such file or directory

its seems like, out bash file is not downloaded from web. I think this is the problem with curl command or something else?

Answer 1

there is a problem in your download.

use a "proxy " to connect and download it correctly, by this command

curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash

Answer 2

CURL is unable to resolve gvmtool.net because it gets redirected to sdkman.io

sdk was formerly known as gvm. Instead of gvm try using sdk for installation of Groovy, Grails, etc. Try the below command

$ curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash

And to install grails, refer this-- https://grails.org/download.html
