Download of file ends with error message

[Paolopost]

The download of a single file is successful but the command terminate with an error message.

I tried the following command line

bl dataset download 5b2fb4e6d821b2004f9341ed

on two different architectures: MacOS and Linux.

On Karst with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago) and nodejs version 8.9.4 the diagnostic message is the following

Error: "toString()" failed

On MacOS 10.13.06 and nodejs version 8.12.0 the diagnostic message is the following

Thanks.

I believe this is related to this issue
