Solución de problemas¶

Cuestiones comunes¶

Problem	Solution
SSL certificate errors	Use `-k` for testing, fix certificates for production
Connection timeout	Increase `--connect-timeout` value
Slow downloads	Use `--limit-rate` to control bandwidth
Authentication failures	Check credentials and authentication method

Debugging Commands¶

# Verbose output for debugging
curl -v https://example.com

# Trace all network activity
curl --trace trace.txt https://example.com

# Show only headers
curl -I https://example.com

# Test connectivity
