.SH FILES
.I ~/.curlrc
.RS
Default config file, see --config for details.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
The environment variables can be specified in lower case or upper case. The
lower case version has precedence. http_proxy is an exception as it is only
available in lower case.
Using an environment variable to set the proxy has the same effect as using
the --proxy option.
.IP "http_proxy [protocol://]<host>[:port]"
Sets the proxy server to use for HTTP.
.IP "HTTPS_PROXY [protocol://]<host>[:port]"
Sets the proxy server to use for HTTPS.
.IP "[url-protocol]_PROXY [protocol://]<host>[:port]"
Sets the proxy server to use for [url-protocol], where the protocol is a
protocol that curl supports and as specified in a URL. FTP, FTPS, POP3, IMAP,
SMTP, LDAP, etc.
.IP "ALL_PROXY [protocol://]<host>[:port]"
Sets the proxy server to use if no protocol-specific proxy is set.
.IP "NO_PROXY <comma-separated list of hosts/domains>"
list of host names that should not go through any proxy. If set to an asterisk
'*' only, it matches all hosts. Each name in this list is matched as either
a domain name which contains the hostname, or the hostname itself.
This environment variable disables use of the proxy even when specified with
the --proxy option. That is
.B NO_PROXY=direct.example.com curl -x http://proxy.example.com
.B http://direct.example.com
accesses the target URL directly, and
.B NO_PROXY=direct.example.com curl -x http://proxy.example.com
.B http://somewhere.example.com
accesses the target URL through the proxy.
The list of host names can also be include numerical IP addresses, and IPv6
versions should then be given without enclosing brackets.
IP addresses can be specified using CIDR notation: an appended slash and
number specifies the number of "network bits" out of the address to use in the
comparison (added in 7.86.0). For example "192.168.0.0/16" would match all
addresses starting with "192.168".
.IP "APPDATA <dir>"
On Windows, this variable is used when trying to find the home directory. If
the primary home variable are all unset.
.IP "COLUMNS <terminal width>"
If set, the specified number of characters is used as the terminal width when
the alternative progress-bar is shown. If not set, curl tries to figure it out
using other ways.
.IP "CURL_CA_BUNDLE <file>"
If set, it is used as the --cacert value.
.IP "CURL_HOME <dir>"
If set, is the first variable curl checks when trying to find its home
directory. If not set, it continues to check *XDG_CONFIG_HOME*
.IP "CURL_SSL_BACKEND <TLS backend>"
If curl was built with support for "MultiSSL", meaning that it has built-in
support for more than one TLS backend, this environment variable can be set to
the case insensitive name of the particular backend to use when curl is
invoked. Setting a name that is not a built-in alternative makes curl stay
with the default.
SSL backend names (case-insensitive): **bearssl**, **gnutls**, **mbedtls**,
**openssl**, **rustls**, **schannel**, **secure-transport**, **wolfssl**
.IP "HOME <dir>"
If set, this is used to find the home directory when that is needed. Like when
looking for the default .curlrc. *CURL_HOME* and *XDG_CONFIG_HOME*
have preference.
.IP "QLOGDIR <directory name>"
If curl was built with HTTP/3 support, setting this environment variable to a
local directory makes curl produce **qlogs** in that directory, using file
names named after the destination connection id (in hex). Do note that these
files can become rather large. Works with the ngtcp2 and quiche QUIC backends.
.IP SHELL
Used on VMS when trying to detect if using a **DCL** or a **unix** shell.
.IP "SSL_CERT_DIR <dir>"
If set, it is used as the --capath value.
.IP "SSL_CERT_FILE <path>"
If set, it is used as the --cacert value.
.IP "SSLKEYLOGFILE <file name>"
If you set this environment variable to a file name, curl stores TLS secrets
from its connections in that file when invoked to enable you to analyze the
TLS traffic in real time using network analyzing tools such as Wireshark. This
works with the following TLS backends: OpenSSL, libressl, BoringSSL, GnuTLS
and wolfSSL.
.IP "USERPROFILE <dir>"
On Windows, this variable is used when trying to find the home directory. If
the other, primary, variable are all unset. If set, curl uses the path
**"$USERPROFILE\\Application Data"**.
.IP "XDG_CONFIG_HOME <dir>"
If *CURL_HOME* is not set, this variable is checked when looking for a
default .curlrc file.
.SH "PROXY PROTOCOL PREFIXES"
The proxy string may be specified with a protocol:// prefix to specify
alternative proxy protocols. (Added in 7.21.7)
If no protocol is specified in the proxy string or if the string does not
match a supported one, the proxy is treated as an HTTP proxy.
The supported proxy protocol prefixes are as follows:
.IP "http://"
Makes it use it as an HTTP proxy. The default if no scheme prefix is used.
.IP "https://"
Makes it treated as an **HTTPS** proxy.
.IP "socks4://"
Makes it the equivalent of --socks4
.IP "socks4a://"
Makes it the equivalent of --socks4a
.IP "socks5://"
Makes it the equivalent of --socks5
.IP "socks5h://"
Makes it the equivalent of --socks5-hostname
.SH EXIT CODES
There are a bunch of different error codes and their corresponding error
messages that may appear under error conditions. At the time of this writing,
the exit codes are:
.IP 0
Success. The operation completed successfully according to the instructions.
.IP 1
Unsupported protocol. This build of curl has no support for this protocol.
.IP 2
Failed to initialize.
.IP 3
URL malformed. The syntax was not correct.
.IP 4
A feature or option that was needed to perform the desired request was not
enabled or was explicitly disabled at build-time. To make curl able to do
this, you probably need another build of libcurl.
.IP 5
Could not resolve proxy. The given proxy host could not be resolved.
.IP 6
Could not resolve host. The given remote host could not be resolved.
.IP 7
Failed to connect to host.
.IP 8
Weird server reply. The server sent data curl could not parse.
.IP 9
FTP access denied. The server denied login or denied access to the particular
resource or directory you wanted to reach. Most often you tried to change to a
directory that does not exist on the server.
.IP 10
FTP accept failed. While waiting for the server to connect back when an active
FTP session is used, an error code was sent over the control connection or
similar.
.IP 11
FTP weird PASS reply. Curl could not parse the reply sent to the PASS request.
.IP 12
During an active FTP session while waiting for the server to connect back to
curl, the timeout expired.
.IP 13
FTP weird PASV reply, Curl could not parse the reply sent to the PASV request.
.IP 14
FTP weird 227 format. Curl could not parse the 227-line the server sent.
.IP 15
FTP cannot use host. Could not resolve the host IP we got in the 227-line.
.IP 16
HTTP/2 error. A problem was detected in the HTTP2 framing layer. This is
somewhat generic and can be one out of several problems, see the error message
for details.
.IP 17
FTP could not set binary. Could not change transfer method to binary.
.IP 18
Partial file. Only a part of the file was transferred.
.IP 19
FTP could not download/access the given file, the RETR (or similar) command
failed.
.IP 21
FTP quote error. A quote command returned error from the server.
.IP 22
HTTP page not retrieved. The requested URL was not found or returned another
error with the HTTP error code being 400 or above. This return code only
appears if --fail is used.
.IP 23
Write error. Curl could not write data to a local filesystem or similar.
.IP 25
FTP could not STOR file. The server denied the STOR operation, used for FTP
uploading.
.IP 26
Read error. Various reading problems.
.IP 27
Out of memory. A memory allocation request failed.
.IP 28
Operation timeout. The specified time-out period was reached according to the
conditions.
.IP 30
FTP PORT failed. The PORT command failed. Not all FTP servers support the PORT
command, try doing a transfer using PASV instead!
.IP 31
FTP could not use REST. The REST command failed. This command is used for
resumed FTP transfers.
.IP 33
HTTP range error. The range "command" did not work.
.IP 34

.IP 45
Interface error. A specified outgoing interface could not be used.
.IP 47
Too many redirects. When following redirects, curl hit the maximum amount.
