A way to force using wget

[ghost]

The copy of curl included with my router firmware does not support https. The copy of wget in it does, but even if I use wget to execute get.acme.sh, the script still searches for curl and uses it by default.

I know I have a unique use-case trying to get an SSL cert for a router, but it would be nice if this was supported. This is (as far as I know) the only shell script style ACME client that doesn't require bash or some other more advanced shell. The router runs busybox, which of course only implements ash.

Yes, I will consider it.

For now, as a temp workaround, please add a file in you home dir: ~/.curlrc

insecure

Then your curl should be able to work.

Please give me the output if you still have problems.

Same error: curl: (1) Protocol "https" not supported or disabled in libcurl

fwiw, if I manually make it use wget by editing get.sh and running it, I get the following.

@ColtonDRG

fixed.

export  ACME_USE_WGET=1
wget -O-  https://get.acme.sh  | sh

[ghost]

Ok, now I'm getting a different problem. Perhaps I should give up on getting a certificate for my router (at least from my router, getting one on another computer and uploading it could still work).

Please check if your wget has a --header option:

wget  --header "a:b"  https://www.google.com

[ghost]

It does not.
