At my work location, I frequently run into cases where the firewall does not correctly pass date and timestamp information back to wget. Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Angelo Archie Amoruso [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2003 6:36 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Wget 1.8.2 timestamping bug Hi All, I'm using Wget 1.8.2 on a Redhat 9.0 box equipped with Athlon 550 MHz cpu, 128 MB Ram. I've encountered a strange issue, which seem really a bug, using the timestamping option. I'm trying to retrieve the http://www.nic.it/index.html page. The HEAD HTTP method returns that page is 2474 bytes long and Last Modified on Wed, 30 Oct 2002. Using wget I retrieve it (using -N) on /tmp and I get : (ls -l --time-style=long) -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2474 2002-10-30 15:53 index.html Then running again wget with -N I get "The sizes do not match (local 91941) -- retrieving" And on /tmp I get again: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2474 2002-10-30 15:53 index.html What's happening? Does Wget check creation time file time, which is obviously : -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2474 2003-08-05 12:28 index.html ???? Thanks for your time and cooperation. Please reply by email.
