I am trying to use curl for login request automation. Here, use of cookie-jar is must. When I use --cooki-jar cjar option, it shows following error.

root@kali:~# curl --cookie-jar cjar --output /root/Desktop/Curl/ https://www.google.com
curl: (1) Protocol " https" not supported or disabled in libcurl 

When I did bit of googling around it, this link says that libcurl3 and here they say that need to install libssl-dev.

When I verified my system for both the libraries, in my Kali Linux box, latest versions are available. Still it is showing the error. So could someone help me to solve this issue.

You have unexpected backslash in command and also --output should be a filename. Try this:

curl --cookie-jar cjar --output /root/Desktop/Curl/output.html https://www.google.com
