[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #50268] get_forge_pkg: could not read URL

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #50268 (project octave):

Try


[~, ok, errmsg] = urlread ("http://packages.octave.org/list_packages.php";)



This will discard the actual text, ok will be true or false indicating whether
the fetch succeeded, and errmsg should contain a string from the curl library
list of error codes. If the message is not helpful, you may be able to
reproduce this with the curl executable if it is included in the distribution.
