Error: No content to install

I downloaded the Linux VM and image from these links:

http://ftp.squeak.org/3.9/unix-linux/Squeak-3.9-8.i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz

http://ftp.squeak.org/3.9/Squeak3.9-final-7067.zip


I can invoke the image without problem. When I try to pass a script
file on the command line there's a "Error: No content to install".

The script file 'file:test.sq' is set in the url field of
HTTPDownloadRequest

Even when the file is in the current directory or the same directory as
the image?

(Is this a recent change?)

I guess you did not use a proper file URL? They generally look like:

file://$HOME/startup.st

regards, Göran

PS. This is a common gotcha, IMHO we might add a default fallback looking
in PWD for a file name if the arg does not look like a proper URL.

Here's the example shown by
   man squeak

   If  this script is in a file called 'hello.sq', then it could be run
   like this:
      squeak foo.image hello.sq


With the latest version does that now have to be
      squeak foo.image file://$HOME/hello.sq
