Syntax Error During Installation

Hi,

I just registered for a trial version of Pro. When I run the platform-setup-x64-linux.sh script, I get the following:

[me@appdyn01 ~]$ sudo ./platform-setup-x64-linux-4.4.2.7140.sh
./platform-setup-x64-linux-4.4.2.7140.sh: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
./platform-setup-x64-linux-4.4.2.7140.sh: line 2: `<script type="text/javascript" src="https://appd-aperture-prod.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com:443/js/library/jquery-2.1.4.min.js?Signature=qlc5Nz7Y7FZv30mNJgIEH8REQc0%3D&amp;Expires=1522437983&amp;AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIIS3SGXAJWKEDWIQ"></script>'
[me@appdyn01 ~]$ cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)

Is anyone else having this issue? I thought the license might have to be in the same directory so I put it there, but I'm getting the same thing.

I figured out the issue.

If I do

wget https://download.appdynamics.com/download/prox/download-file/enterprise-console/4.4.2.7140/platform-setup-x64-linux-4.4.2.7140.sh

the content of platform-setup-x64-linux.sh is this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://appd-aperture-prod.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com:443/js/library/jquery-2.1.4.min.js?$
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://appd-aperture-prod.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com:443/js/login.js?Signature=%2FbdCPxj$

<form id="saml-login-form" style="display:none;">
    <input type='hidden' name='csrfmiddlewaretoken' value='WhRxxNNQDNQlh5oX3ldzLYWq5ZWXQGbKfRyhSQMkcrmpamS90zJQvEgIfOAPNwXB' $
    <input type="hidden" name="login-url" value="https://login.appdynamics.com/sso/samlservice/login/download_server/">

    <button type="submit" class="btn btn_org">Log In</button>
</form>

I figured from your request for the "first 20 lines" that this wasn't right, so I just clicked the download link and found the actual download link was https://download-files.appdynamics.com/download-file/enterprise-console/4.4.2.7140/platform-setup-x6....

I downloaded it to my local machine and then copied it to my VM, and now it's working.

Can you post the first 20 or so lines of your platform-setup-x64-linux.sh script please?

From this error message, I am not sure if this has the expected content.

Yes. Even when passing --http-user=username and --http-password=password, the downloaded script only shows this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://appd-aperture-prod.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com:443/js/library/jquery-2.1.4.min.js?Signature=1yLW28QQQ%2BTT%2FtTaHXHCX%2F7twrU%3D&amp;Expires=1522856280&amp;AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIIS3SGXAJWKEDWIQ"></script>

Excellent!  I'm glad you're off and running!

If you wish to automate download of the AppDynamics software in the future, the steps to do so are documented here: https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO44/Download+AppDynamics+Software

Warm regards,
Peter
