Welcome to the community @simrangupta234
Can you tell few more details about your setup like it’s Mac, Linux, Windows?

also try running the command with adding sudo at the start like this

$ sudo curl -L https://git.io/meshery | PLATFORM=docker bash -
3

I’m using git bash in windows

4

Let’me know if sudo thing fails to help you :slightly_smiling_face:

5

Showing sudo command not found.

$ sudo curl -L https://git.io/meshery | PLATFORM=docker bash -
bash: sudo: command not found
6

It’s an issue from git bash terminal. I see git bash doesn’t have sudo command.

Run the Git Bash or the console you are running, with Run As Administrator

7

Still showing same error, after running as Administrator.

8

This error explains that you can’t create the destination because you don’t have permission. Can you look into how you can solve this, I am not a windows oriented developer so I don’t have much idea on how to solve this error.

9

That’s the problem. I don’t know, how to solve that.

Hi @simrangupta234 can you try setting up Meshery in WSL2?

11

Can you tell, how to use that?

@asubedy, @navendu, do you think this is a network bandwidth issue? @simrangupta234 will you execute the command again?

@simrangupta234 Could you try the solution from this thread? It might be the case that curl is not able to create the temporary folder in your machine to download the zip file.
