What You Are Seeing?

We use chocolatey on an Air-gapped network for which we upload the nuget packages to our Artifactory server. This server requires basic authentication to access any resources.

We modify the nuget packages install scripts so that calls to Install-Chocolateypackage use the Options parameter in which we add an Authorization Headers.

This works fine and downloads the packages correctly, however it triggers errors which could be avoided.

What is Expected?

No errors are generated when download packages using Authorization headers.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

  1. Modify a package to add the 'Options' parameter with and Authorization header
  2. Upload this package to a repository requiring basic auth
  3. choco install <package>
