This loop will not complete a download in most normal cases. If you check the
documentation and/or the examples, you'll find more sensible ways to use the
multi interface to download a file.

And, since the download was not complete, it is no surprise you didn't get any
error code back from the transfer, as that is only provided at the end of a
transfer.
