Beginners
#1

when I try to install “arc” following the “quick-start”(◉ Arcanist Quick Start)
everything is fine, but when I try to install-certificate I got stuck.
It gives me the following message.

 CONNECT  Connecting to "https://reviews.llvm.org/api/"...
Usage Exception: Failed to connect to server (https://reviews.llvm.org/api/): 
Host returned HTTP/200, but invalid JSON data in response to a Conduit method call.

can anyone help me? Thanks.

Hi, mehdi_amini, thank you for your kindly reply!
Following your suggestion, I got the following message:

After check the source code , it seems likes “conduit.ping” method failed,
but I can not get any other clues now.

50   public function run() {
 51     $console = PhutilConsole::getConsole();
 52 
 53     $uri = $this->determineConduitURI();
 54     $this->setConduitURI($uri);
 55     $configuration_manager = $this->getConfigurationManager();
 56 
 57     $config = $configuration_manager->readUserConfigurationFile();
 58 
 59     $this->writeInfo(
 60       pht('CONNECT'),
 61       pht(
 62         'Connecting to "%s"...',
 63         $uri));
 64 
 65     $conduit = $this->establishConduit()->getConduit();
 66     try {
 67       $conduit->callMethodSynchronous('conduit.ping', array());
 68     } catch (Exception $ex) {
 69       throw new ArcanistUsageException(

 72           $uri,
 73           $ex->getMessage()));
