Brew Install Error Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra

Question

I'm attempting to install a package on Mac OSX Serra v10.12.6 running xCode v9.1 using HomeBrew v1.3.8.

The install and error is

TS-Mac-Pro > brew install dos2unix
Error: Xcode alone is not sufficient on Sierra.
Install the Command Line Tools:
  xcode-select --install 

Then I run the command

xcode-select --install 

which says the command line tool package is not available from the software update server.

Which I go into xCode it shows that the command line tools are installed.

TS-Mac-Pro > xcode-select -p
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer 

Any help would be much appreciated.

I went to Apple Developer website and downloaded the Command Line Tools dmg directly. An Apple account first needs to be setup.

The Command Line Tools can be found under -

Install downloaded dmg and volia - HomeBrew is back up and running.
