Ubuntu :: Wget On A Jpg Not Working?
Dec 17, 2010
I 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 have a website that I need to go to often and disable a monitor. To disable I need to login to the website-> click on monitor -> then uncheck a box.
I am told that I can do this through a scipt using the WGET command. I got the parameterized query and then tried to execute it through a *.sh script.
The script generates a php file in the location from where it is executed. When I go to the site and check the monitor is not disabled.

If 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.

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.

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.

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'm trying to use wget on an ubuntu 10.04 server 64bit, with 16GB RAM and 1.1 TB free disk space. It exits with the message "wget: memory exhausted". I'm trying to download 1MB of some sites. After different tries this is the command I'm using:
Code:
wget -r -x -Q1m -R "jpg,gif,jpeg,png" -U Mozilla http://www.onesite.com
(I only need the html documents, but when if I run the -A options only the first page is donwloaded, so I change to -R).
This happens with wget 1.12 version. I've tried the same command in other computers with less RAM and disk space (ubuntu 8.04 - wget 1.10.2) and it works just fine.

I am using wget to grep some data from a .htaccess protected website.I don't want to use the --http-user= and --http-password= variables in the script so I tried to create a ~/.wgetrc file.Whenever I run my wget script, it will never use the http_user and http_password examples to login to th website.

At the middle of download I have shutdown my laptop (downloading was not over) and when I started my laptop again. I have executed the same command to continue downloading but I have got the error :

I used the crontab to start wget and download the file with the following
Quote:
14 02 * * * wget -c --directory-prefix=/home/Downloads/wget --input-filefile=/home/Downloads/wget/download.txt
But it doesn't shows a terminal and so not able to get the current status and stop wget. So how can I start wget with a terminal using crontab?

I'm trying to figure out how to use wget to save a copy of a page that is frequently updated. Ideally, what I'd like it to do is save a copy of the page every minute or so. I don't need multiple copies; I just need to know what the most recent version was. Also, if the page disappears for whatever reason, I don't want it to save the error page, just wait until the page is up again.

I've looked around the other threads as well as the wget man page. I also Googled for some examples. I still cannot work it out. From the page [URL] I want to download the 48 linked files and their corresponding information page.To do this (the first file) by hand I click on the line that saysApplications (5) Go to the first optionDell - Application Open and copy the linked pageApplies to: Driver Reset Tool Then back on the first page click on the Download button. On the window that opens up I choose to save the file.
Then I move on to the next option (which is Sonic Solutions - Applications) and repeat this until I would have all my files. I do not want to download the many other links on this page. Just the above mentioned, so I can take it back to my internet-less place and refer to it as if I was on the net. I am using the 9.10 LiveCD at my friends place.

I am interested in making wget do a slightly different function for me. I have downloaded it, built it (1.12) and it works perfectly right out of the box. would like to have it login to my creditcards.citi.com https website, give my user id, my password and "select NEXT-SCREEN label=Account Activity", then capture the account activity that returns.
I got these three values in my firefox Selenium script that runs perfectly time after time. My big picture goal, is to be able, on a crontab, to dump my account activity every night at midnight. I am not married to this idea if anyone has a better or different route.

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.

If 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?
