Most likely this is because there are some issues with chocolatey.org at the moment.

Subject: [chocolatey/boxstarter] Boxstarter install under windows 10 always fail (#376)
Hello, using latest boxstarter install with powershell fail:
iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1')); get-boxstarter -Force
And here is the log:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('http://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1')); get-boxstarter -Force
Welcome to the Boxstarter Module installer!
Chocolatey is going to be downloaded and installed on your machine. If you do not have the .NET Framework Version 4 or greater, that will also be downloaded and installed.

ok, perhaps chocolatey should add a sanitiy check of the server before installation ? like getting this page: https://status.chocolatey.org/ and check if all is green for example. |
|
@dummys That's an issue you should raise in the Chocolatey repositories. |
|
The website issue is chocolatey, but the install script behaviour is a boxstarter issue. I was bitten by the same error and it took some times to discover that the issue came from the chocolatey website. |
Chocolatey installs the packages. Boxstarter executes the commands. So if you want Chocolatey to 'sanity check of the server before installation' then you raise Chocolatey issue. How is it a Boxstarter issue? |
|
because this happens during the chocolatey installation phase, choco is not yet on the machine |
|
it's back in work again. |
|
@hobbes so it's just the Chocolatey installation phase you're concerned about? Not the installation of other packages? |

@pauby exactly. Now the package installation phase could also detect the problem when it happens at that stage and handle it, but that's a completely different problem, dependent on chocolatey. |

I'm back looking at this again. I'm still not sure what we are supposed to do with this. The issue originally was that chocolatey.org was not available which caused the Boxstarter run to fail (in this case fail to even install Chocolatey). What would be the desired outcome? If Boxstarter cannot install Chocolatey do we completely fail the script? Just skip the choco command(s) so we have a half built system? I'm still not convinced this is a Boxstarter issue. |

As boxstarter needs choco to do its things, I think that the install script should gracefully fail when choco cannot be installed. |

Boxstarter doesn't need choco for everything. It needs choco to install packages. The way you are bootstrapping Boxstarter causes it to download and install Chocolatey to get Boxstarter installed. I've been looking at this from the wrong side. We should detect and stop if the bootstrapping fails. You're right. |

Hello, using latest boxstarter install script with powershell under windows 10 x64 1803 fail, but it seems related to chocolatey install and not boxstarter...
EDIT: I want to install manually chocolatey, but install link is broken.
iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://boxstarter.org/bootstrapper.ps1')); get-boxstarter -ForceAnd here is the log:
