View 5 RepliesIf a wget download is interrupted (like if I have to shutdown prematurely), I get a wget.log with the partial download. How can I later resume the download using the data in wget.log? I have searched high and low (including wget manual) and cannot find how to do this. Is it so obvious that I did not see it? The wget -c option with the wget.log as the argument to the -c option does not work. What I do do is open the wget.log and copy the URL and then paste it into the command line and do another wget. This works but the download is started from the beginning, which means nothing in the wget.log is used.

My concern is to get only one copy, not many copies of the same file and not abled to find out where it's actually downloading.

i did manage to install apt-get and was able to run synaptics ... but now whenever i try to run synaptics it flashes the interface and crashes. i tried apt-get search wget and it says invalid operation search. i tried apt cache wget and get a crash box in the upper right corner... i tried apt-get gtk+extra-2.1.2-4.fc14 and it says invalid operation gtk...
All of which is frustrating my attempts to get the GTK interface to J working. Their script uses WGET which i also cannot get.
i have noticed that if vista is not the active partition, hybernate does not work. it just goes black and then back to the user icon screen to log back in. another "slight" problem was that i was not able to apply a service pack. after restoring vistas dominance i was able to install the pack. is there any other work arounds for hybernate? even though you might not be interested in cleaning up after microsoft.

I managed to delete the Volume Applet that appears by default on the task bar. I'm sure it used to be listed in 'Add to Panel' in other version of Ubuntu however I can't see it there in 10.04.
Can someone explain to me how I get it back?

I use a mac at work and use time machine to back up to an external hard drive which i take home each day. I wish to back up the time machine back ups off the external hard drive each day to my computer at home just to be safe is this possible?
I have managed to open the hard drive and have enabled view hidden files so i can see all the files but i am unable to copy them due to permission errors
My problem is with a fully updated Fedora 13 x86_64 installation. I interrupted "yum provides ..." and corrupted the database. After a good deal of searching and several maneuvers that gradually spoiled /var/lib/yum and /var/lib/rpm I reinstalled yum with rpm and rebuilt its database. But at this point this is so screwed up that I can't use either yum or rpm. For example,
Code:
yum install yum
yields
Code:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit

I'm typing this on my linux laptop, at work. My Firefox works fine, but I cannot apt-get, or wget anything. To get my Firefox to work, I just went into the Firefox preferences, checked "Automatic proxy configuration URL" and entered the url that I have. Now Firefox works fine, but the rest of my system does not.o be a similar setting in System>Preferences>Network Proxy. There is check box for "Automatic proxy configuration" and a field for a "Autoconfiguration URL". I put the same URL that put into Firefox here and told it to apply it system-wide, but my apt still does not work. This is a big deal because I need to install software and I really don't want to start manually downloading packages, plus I need ssh.
I have googled extensively on how to get apt to work from behind a proxy, but nothing seems to be working. I don't have a specific proxy server and port; rather I have some kind of autoconfiguration URL. Plus, my system has no /etc/apt.conf file at all. Any ideas on how I can get my system to be able to access the internet? It's very strange to me that Firefox can, but apt, ping, wget, etc cannot.
Yea, I think I uninstalled Yum, is there a way to get it back? Alas poor Yum I knew it not.

I did a little (clearly not enough) research and hit ctrl - alt - f7 which brought me to a black screen with a blinking curser in the upper left corner. Got out of that by ctrl - alt - f1 which put me in a terminal session but I really want to get back to the GUI desktop.

I need to mirror a website. However, each of the links on the site's webpage is actually a 'submit' to a cgi script that shows up the resulting page. AFAIK wget should fail on this since it needs static links.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to have this cool effect where gnome scheduler downloads with wget this image every three hours. However, even when I do it manually in the terminal it doesn't seem to download it correctly. When I go to open the .jpg it says in a big red bar on the top "Could not load image '1600.jpg'. Error interpreting JPEG image file (Not a JPEG file: starts with 0x47 0x49)"
However, when I go to the picture in the link above and right click "Save Image As" it downloads it fine.
I'm currently using wget to keep a running mirror of another site but I don't have much space locally. I was wondering if there was a way to turn on -N (timestamping) so that only the "updates" were retrieved (i.e. new/modified files) without hosting a local mirror.
Does -N take a timestamp parameter that will pull any new/modified files after "x"?
It seems like a waste to compare remote file headers against a timestamp without presenting the option of supplying that timestamp. Supplying a timestamp would allow me to not keep a local mirror and still pull updates that occurred after the desired timestamp.
Like the subject says,.. I'm lookin for a wget'able 11.04 Live CD URL This URL works great with a point and click but doesn't tell me what the direct URL is to use wget. [URL]
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf I have an address, say [URL], and I want to run n number of wgets on it. How can I do this? I'm curious for the reason of checking how wgets caches DNS. Turn off caching of DNS lookups. Normally, Wget remembers the IP addresses it looked up from DNS so it doesn't have to repeatedly contact the DNS server for the same (typically small) set of hosts it retrieves from. This cache exists in memory only; a new Wget run will contact DNS again.
The last part confuses me. "a new Wget run will contact DNS again." This means if I run a for-loop to call wget on an address, it will just make a new call to DNS every time. How do I avoid this?
I am writing a bash script where I would need to down load few file from server but the glitch is authentication is being performed by SSO/Siteminder server.
Does anyone aware of a option or trick with wget or curl to authenticate against SSO and then download the file from the server.
Standard http-user and http-password definitely does not suffice the need.
my question is simple and yet in true linux fashion the answer eludes my best google searches.
i accidentally removed my taskbar from the bottom of my Fedora 11 KDE desktop. after messing around with it i was able to get a working panel using the add panel feature, but i dont like it.
how do i restore my KDE desktop to the Leonidas default that it installs with?
I'm new to Linux and Fedora. I installed Fedora a short while ago and inadvertently deleted the top panel that lists the applications, files, etc. How can I get this back? I can't even access the terminal because that was listed under applications.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSo I just installed OpenSUSE along side Fedora11 and it appears the SUSE grub simply removed Fedora from the menu.lst instead of adding to it... what exactly do I need to put to get it back into the list? My Fedora resides on sdb8 on my partition setup.
