404 Error installing Meteor on Mac OS X 10.10.5

I was trying to install meteor.js on my Mac using the command given on the Meteor website: 

curl https://install.meteor.com/ | sh

However I get:

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

Downloading Meteor distribution

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
Installation failed.

Tried googling this but couldn't find an answer, anyone knows what going on?

We need first to know what this command does,

first it download a file, using this link https://install.meteor.com/. then execute it, that's it.

So read the sh file,

there is a link where it download a file. it's *

https://static-meteor.netdna-ssl.com/packages-bootstrap/${RELEASE}/meteor-bootstrap-${PLATFORM}.tar.gz

this link is related to your system. ${RELEASE} is the version you want to download and ${PLATFORM} is the system where u want to install into it,

it can be os.linux.x86_32 os.linux.x86_64.

Check your system and the file and download Meteor directly in the browser.

**This question may be so old but i still facing the same problem and i solved it this way.

    Meteor 1.1.0.3 has been installed in your home directory (~/.meteor).
    Writing a launcher script to /usr/local/bin/meteor for your convenience.

    To get started fast:

      $ meteor create ~/my_cool_app
      $ cd ~/my_cool_app
      $ meteor

    Or see the docs at:

      docs.meteor.com

then do

$ meteor update

you should see this result:

    Installed. Run 'meteor update --release 1.2.0.4-logging.0' inside of a particular project directory to update that project to Meteor 1.2.0.4-logging.0.

So, not sure if this is an official solution but I was able to get Meteor 1.2 by first installing Meteor 1.1.0.3, which was the latest version I saw on the https://d3sqy0vbqsdhku.cloudfront.net/ for Mac OS X (or any OS).

However, to get that version I first had to save the shell code from https://install.meteor.com to a local file, and then manually change

RELEASE="1.2" on line 25 to RELEASE="1.1.0.3"

After install Meteor using this version, then I ran a manual meteor update in the terminal

I don't really know why this is the case but if anyone else is seeing this problem then hope this helps
