attempting to download eQTL data from eQTL catalog, but code not retrieving file

I am using the following code:

curl ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/spot/eQTL/sumstats/QTS000015/QTD000271/QTD000271.all.tsv.gz -o ~/Downloads/QTD000271.all.tsv.gz

I use a Mac, however, I do not download any files, have tried using it multiple times, and each time it shows that no data is being downloaded at all.

I would be grateful for any help. xx

Works on my machine. Can you run this and share the curl_err.err file please?

curl -s ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/spot/eQTL/sumstats/QTS000015/QTD000271/QTD000271.all.tsv.gz -o ~/Downloads/QTD000271.all.tsv.gz &> curl_err.err

Hi there, i just downloaded directly from the site, took longer to find, but seemed an easier route as I'm only doing this a few times. Thank you so much though.xx
