Problem "do shell script" on curl – Works in Terminal, but not via "do shell script"

Question

I want to use "curl" with "do shell script" in an apple script. It already worked some months ago, but then the provider changed to https-only service.

So I update curl on Mac OS Terminal:

$ curl -V
curl 7.49.0 (x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0) libcurl/7.49.0 OpenSSL/1.0.2h zlib/1.2.8
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp 
Features: IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP UnixSockets

So it works in Terminal and gives back the right answer:

But when I try to call the same command via do shell script in Apple Script it responds this:

So – is the problem, that curl in the do shell script environment isn't updated - and how could I do this? Or what is the problem?

Answer 1

I've found the solution. The problem is, that homebrew installed an optional newer version of curl, but the command do shell script does use the old version.

After a hint from a friend I used which curl in terminal and apple script editor and get different results:

Terminal says: /opt/local/bin/curl
Apple Script do shell script says: /usr/bin/curl

So the solution for my problem is to force do shell sript to use the newer version via:

do shell script "/opt/local/bin/curl \"https://v.gd/create.php?format=simple&url=http://www.test.de\""
