Install a custom version of PhantomJS... 403 Forbidden

The PhantomJS custom version install script is failing with the default PHANTOMJS_HOST environment variable which is set to https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads.

https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads/phantomjs-2.1.1-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 302/redirects to S3 with an expiration token, but the expiration token is already expired once the build sends the request.

Using the optional export PHANTOMJS_HOST="https://s3.amazonaws.com/codeship-packages" works!

Maybe export PHANTOMJS_HOST="https://s3.amazonaws.com/codeship-packages" should be the default? Thanks!

Hey @simeonwillbanks , please see ariya/phantomjs#13953 for the root cause.

Unfortunately we can't fix this, but then again we don't want to be the default host, but only offer the mirror as a temporary work around

[simeonwillbanks]

@mlocher Thanks for the link.

Should we keep this issue open until the root cause is resolved?

[mlocher]

@simeonwillbanks My personal opinion on this is that I'd close this issue. Reason being that

1. We can't help with the root issue other than what we already provide (a basic mirror of some of the PhantomJS versions).
2. Alternative download location ariya/phantomjs#13953 has been open for a long time and I don't expect it to get resolved any time soon.
3. Even the closed issue will still be searchable and I (or you, if you want to) can prepare a PR for the phantomjs.sh script and add links to this issue and Alternative download location ariya/phantomjs#13953 to point users in the right direction, if they are hit by the rate limiting issue.

What do you think?

[simeonwillbanks]

@mlocher sounds good! Thanks for your time 😸
