When I run this script it halts at:

Connecting to mirror6.layerjet.com (mirror6.layerjet.com)|5.135.167.33|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response...

Any clues on why and how to fix it? Thanks

Can you also provide us script to install GTK 3+ on Amazone Linux AMI as it required to install firefox 47 as selium driver 2.52.0 is not compatible with firefox 45

There are some links below to compile GTK 3 but we are not sure how to use these
