Ubuntu :: Wget Downloads Corrupt Files; Gwget Doesn't Work At All?
Dec 26, 2010
In order to download files from a particular website, I have to include a header containing the text of a cookie, to indicate who I am and that I am properly logged in. So the wget command ends up looking something like:Code:wget --header "Cookie: user=stringofgibbrish" http://url.domain.com/content/porn.zipNow, this does work in the sense that the command does download a file of the right size that has the expected name. But the file does not contain what it should--the .zip files cannot be unzipped, the movies can not be played, etc Do I need some additional option, like the "binary" mode in the old FTP protocols?I tried installing gwget; it is easier to use, but has no way to include the --header stuff, so the downloads never happen in the first place

Have seen this post and was wondering why would that be so.

Privoxy is supposed to either block or allow specific adverts, why would that corrupt a single file, like an .exe or .tar.gz?

I get a page of rssfeed.php in my root dir, whenever i run it once more, there goes a new rssfeed.php.0, rssfeed. php.1...etc, the number increases. but all of them stays empty, is there a tag that avoids this?I am not sure which one to use on the man page, there is -o for output, but none for no output?

I have used wget to try to download a big file. After several hours I realized that it would have been better to use a download accelerator. I would not like to discard the significant portion that wget has already downloaded. Do you know of any download accelerator that can resume this partial download?

OS: ubuntu10.04 LTS running on latest oracle virtualbox. This works: I have opened a ubuntu one account. And I can log into that account. But I have to do so by: clicking 'ubuntu one' in top bar, and click 'account' in prompt that appears. Shouldn't log in take place automatically? Being logged in I'm able to make new folders. And appearently able to enter them (they are empty I quess) If I try to upload a file clicking 'upload file' in ubuntu one. A prompt appears and I choose the file to upload and click 'continue'. The prompt says "uploading" but nothing happens. If I choose a document folder and click 'mouse click right'. And then click 'sync with ubuntu one'. It prompts that it syncs the folders. But nothing happens.

Ever since I connected my MP3 player to ubuntu the music I put on it doesn't show in the players interface. The actual storage device seems fine and if I delete music off it removes it fine also. Basically, the problem is the MP3 player isn't now recognising new music being put onto it. This is also happening on my XP computer, the player was working on Vista a few days previous. Could it just be a coincidence my MP3 player breaks as soon as I start using Ubuntu or what do you think?

I recently copied about 1TB of videos from one drive to another. Now it seems like my videos(a lot but not all) are choppy or just end up freezing(mkv files seem to be the ones freezing).Is it possible that the transferring of a large amount of data could have damaged my videos?

I had important files on my flash drive that are not backed up anywhere. I went into the live USB creator, misclicked and trashed my drive.
Now when I plug it in, it doesn't have any files, but its formatting remains. I can right click and see the properties and it appears as though it says the same amount is used.
Currently I tryed using GParted to sort it out and upon selecting the device it starts searching for /dev/sdb partitions. It has been doing that for the last hour. Conky shows that 2 processes of dosfsck are running. Its a new drive and I dont know if it has an activity light.

I'm using this command: wget --convert-links -np --wait=20 --limit-rate=20K -m -k -p -U Mozilla -c [URL]
I can only use konqueror (asus eeepc 701) to completely view kneetest.html . The image taimoshan-front-qtr.jpg does not show, but if I right click and save, I can view the jpg. I was able to see this jpg earlier in the day, but not now. I've wget'd the site about 5 or 6 times in a day and sometimes I'll miss 2 images. I've also tried without the -U Mozilla option. BTW: Is there a way to get Mozilla to read files from wget?

I was trying to download MOPSLinux from their Russian FTP server, using Firefox-->FlashGot-->KDE-Kget and it kept sitting there for about a minute, then popping up a dialog box asking for a Username & Password to access the FTP site.
I tried the usual anonymous type of login information combinations, to no avail; the box kept reappearing.
Finally for the heck of it, I tried Firefox-->FlashGot-->Wget and presto! It began downloading right away, no questions asked.
This is on Slack64 with the stock KDE installation + the KDE3 compat libs.
Here's the transfer currently going on the Wget window:

I'm using 10.04 beta...
If I go to system - preferences - personal file sharing, I cannot select "share files over the network." The panel is greyed out and the message "This feature cannot be enabled because the required packages are not installed on your computer" is shown
It ever so usefully doesn't tell me what those packages are though! - It'd be nice to have more useful error messages or the ability to click to install them...
Anyway, what do I have to do to get this going again?! I've installed everything to do with samba, webdav that I can find but still no cigar...

I recently installed the latest version of Ubuntu to setup a home media server. Previously, I was running a Windows Home Server. I added a new HD and mounted it during installation. This was ext2. I think mounted my 2 drives that had NTFS partitions on them from the Windows home server and copied all of my files over to the new ext2 partition. Everything looked great. I then re-partitioned by two old Windows Home Server Drives to ext3 partitions to setup a new file system for storage.
This is when the bad news became evident. While all of my .jpg, .mpeg, etc. files are there on my ext2 file system, I can not open them anymore. All programs (IE, paint, windows media player, Itunes, Photoshop, MS Office, etc.) are unable to open files they normally process. Did I somehow lose part of the files (a header, attribute or something) during this copy process?

I am using ubuntu 8.04.When I install software from internet then files are downloaded to /var/cache/apt/archives so i keep those debian files in safe place so that I can install that software on another stand-alone computer.
MY question: When we run 'apt-get update' for first time after fresh install it downloads some files. Can i store those files & point to them for a networkless computer which has no internet ? If this is possible it will allow me to 'apt-get check' on stand-alone computer to see if any package is not proper.

I'm trying to download a set of files with wget, and I only want the files and paths "downwards" from a URL, that is, no other files or paths. Here is the comand I have been using
Code:
wget -r -np --directory-prefix=Publisher http://xuups.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/modules/publisher There is a local path called 'Publisher'. The wget works okay, downloads all the files I need into the /Publisher path, and then it starts loading files from other paths. If you see [URL]..svn/trunk/modules/publisher , I only want those files, plus the paths and files beneath that URL.

I've been using Ubuntu on my fileserver for quite a while now, and I've always really had this problem, but I want to finally address it and get it fixed. At seemingly random points (when my fileserver is under stress - typically while I'm writing lots of data to it), my fileserver will crash. It generally completely crashes, not responding to any further file requests or any of my SSH commands, and must be reset hard (typically by flipping the power switch). After such an occasion, I end up with some corrupted files. It seems to corrupt a large array of files (it's not an isolated issue - for example, it corrupts files that were not being accessed anywhere near the time it crashed, including files that had never been accessed during that period of uptime). The files don't get completely smashed, but they're definitely corrupted (artifacts in images, skips in audio and video files, often complete failure of binary files such as virtual hard drives or disc images).
I'm using Ubuntu Server 11.04, but similar issues to this happened for me in 10.04 LTS (in fact, I upgraded to try to solve them). I'm using mdadm to create an 8-drive raid6 array. The drives are 1.5 TB each, mostly Samsung HD154UI, but with a WD drive in there too (sorry, I can't find the model number at the moment). The hard drives themselves appear to be working fine - SMART reports no issues with any of them, mdadm says they're all up, and I have no reason to believe that the drives are at fault here (although I can conduct further tests if necessary). I've posted about this problem before here and here. In these cases, the issues seemed to be with XFS - in fact, I switched from XFS to ext4 on my RAID array because I simply believed XFS to be unstable. Unfortunately, this issue occurs with ext4 as well, so I'm fairly certain it's an mdadm issue. Here is the output of "cat /proc/mdstat", for those interested:

I have a CentOS 5 server running as a web server. The web services are okay. Ping, ssh work fine both ways. But when I try to wget or yum update or install, I get a timeout. The URLs are resolving properly. And there's no difference if IPtables is turned off or on.

Discovered today that my /share directory is missing or corrupt. All fields (permissions, ownership, inode, etc) read '?'. Will a fsck from single user mode fix this? Tried rebooting several times, etc. All other system functions see to be ok, except all the files in /usr/share are missing, the directory 'share' blinks red and obviously dovecot will not run - which is keeping our IMAP from running.

There is some issue with the latest version of LinuxDC++ (version: 1.2.0~pre1~bzr Core version: 0.75). I have upgraded to the latest version a few days back from launchpad repos due to the frequent crashes and system hang-ups. My complete and incomplete downloads folder are same. While my download was going on, LinuxDC++ deleted all the files from the downloads folder.
After about half an hour of tweaking, I updated my database using updatedb, and found my files in ~/.dc++/Filelists/anantwqqwe.BMIU2NFCFXB7ERTSG62PRSQPRJIN63A56EEGO6Q . What does that supposed to mean and why its doing this way? This is the second time this has happened to me, the last time I was unable to locate the deleted files on my system and I suppose they were not there. I use 64-bit Ubuntu 10.10(maverick).
