How can pipeline overwrite POSTed artefact each time?

[andb0t]

I was following the example in https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/deploy-build-artifacts-to-bitbucket-downloads-872124574.html .

The curl code in the pipeline only works the first time, after that it provides an error, which is hard to google. I assume it is related to the fact that the file "CV_publications.pdff" already exists in `.../downloads`. This is my pipeline:

```

pipelines:
default:
- step:
script:
- echo "Generating all CVs!"
- make
- echo "Done!"
- apt-get install -y curl
- curl -X POST "https://${BB_AUTH_STRING}@api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${BITBUCKET_REPO_OWNER}/${BITBUCKET_REPO_SLUG}/downloads" --form files=@"CV_publications.pdf"

```

and this is the pipeline error message:

```

curl
 -X POST 
"https://${BB_AUTH_STRING}@api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${BITBUCKET_REPO_OWNER}/${BITBUCKET_REPO_SLUG}/downloads"
 --form files=@"CV_publications.pdf"<1s

+ curl -X POST "https://${BB_AUTH_STRING}@api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/${BITBUCKET_REPO_OWNER}/${BITBUCKET_REPO_SLUG}/downloads" --form files=@"CV_publications.pdf"
Warning: setting file CV_publications.pdf  failed!

curl: (26) read function returned funny value

```

What's happening here?

Thanks!

Hi Andreas,

Have you tried adding "-v" to the curl command to get more information about the error?
