Homebrew installation hanging with little output

[CJJM]

Hi,

My environment is MacOS Catalina v 10.15.5. I'm currently trying to uninstall and reinstall Homebrew with the following commands:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/uninstall.sh)"

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

Console returns the following:

==> This script will install:
/usr/local/bin/brew
/usr/local/share/doc/homebrew
/usr/local/share/man/man1/brew.1
/usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/_brew
/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/brew
/usr/local/Homebrew
==> The following new directories will be created:
/usr/local/var
/usr/local/var/homebrew
/usr/local/var/homebrew/linked
/usr/local/Cellar
/usr/local/Caskroom
/usr/local/Homebrew

Press RETURN to continue or any other key to abort
==> /usr/bin/sudo /bin/mkdir -p /usr/local/var /usr/local/var/homebrew /usr/local/var/homebrew/linked /usr/local/Cellar /usr/local/Caskroom /usr/local/Homebrew
==> /usr/bin/sudo /bin/chmod g+rwx /usr/local/var /usr/local/var/homebrew /usr/local/var/homebrew/linked /usr/local/Cellar /usr/local/Caskroom /usr/local/Homebrew
==> /usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/chown connormaloney /usr/local/var /usr/local/var/homebrew /usr/local/var/homebrew/linked /usr/local/Cellar /usr/local/Caskroom /usr/local/Homebrew
==> /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/chgrp admin /usr/local/var /usr/local/var/homebrew /usr/local/var/homebrew/linked /usr/local/Cellar /usr/local/Caskroom /usr/local/Homebrew
==> Downloading and installing Homebrew...

Each time, it hangs at that step without downloading anything. I've also tried an alternative install with the following command within the /usr/local/ directory:

mkdir homebrew && curl -L https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/tarball/master | tar xz --strip 1 -C homebrew

and each message is an error ending with Failed to create dir 'Library'.

Has anyone encountered something similar?
