What if you do something this...? What do status and log tell you?
set(remote "http://......";)
set(local "some file name")
file(DOWNLOAD
"${remote}"
"${local}"
STATUS status
LOG log)
list(GET status 0 status_code)
list(GET status 1 status_string)
if(NOT status_code EQUAL 0)
message(FATAL_ERROR "error: downloading '${remote}' failed
status_code: ${status_code}
status_string: ${status_string}
log: ${log}
")
endif()
