Windows WSL esp-idf install.sh error (IDFGH-2175)

[LeongHouWang]

I am following this guide
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/#get-started-set-up-tools
to install esp-idf on my windows wsl until Step3 setting up the tools by launching ./install.sh . About the error code I cannot find solutions on the internet yet.

My Windows WSL is Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and it is a fresh install solely for esp32.

Below is the error message I copied from the terminal.

@LeongHouWang Thanks for reporting.

Hi @LeongHouWang. Could you please try it again? The download server was down around the time you've reported this issue.

Hi, yes, yesterday I have finished the installation. Thanks for the support
