  Hello Paul,

  I'm still having an issue.  I type this command:  wget --content-disposition https://pm.puppet.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi?arch=x86_64&dist=el&rel=7&ver=latest

  As a result, I download a file download-puppet-enterprise which is 187638 bytes in size and this file is not a tar.gz file.  It appears to be an html file with very long lines

  Hello Robert, you need to include quotes around the URL:

  wget --content-disposition "https://pm.puppet.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi?arch=x86_64&dist=el&rel=7&ver=latest"

  If you are still unable to download the installer, please open a ticket with Support so that we can assist you further.

  I'm sorry about that, and I hope it's not persisting. I see that you're getting help from the team on this one. If we need to make a change here to help with that, I'll make sure that happens.

  @suzie Can make it clearer that the " " are required around the download URL at all? Some customers aren't familiar with EBNF and I've had feedback that they couldn't get it to work, and it was because they hadn't included the quotations.

  Sure, I'll take care of that today. (I'll let you know when it's done.) I appreciate your feedback!
