Hi I encountered some issue with the wget command line due to different versions in the different environment (DEV,PROD).
In PROD, wget is 1.9.1, and in DEV, wget is 1.12. I am not sure if the difference in version is causing my output to be different. The command line is something like this: wget ftp://*username*:*password*@abc.abc.com/abc/abc/*_20110119_File.csv --tries=3 --waitretry=10 --timeout=60 --output-document=File.csv In the FTP server, there are 2 files: 123456_20110119_File.csv 345678_20110119_File.csv These 2 files will be download and concatenated to the output file File.csv in DEV (wget 1.12) However actually these 2 files are not concatenated to the output file File.csv in PROD (wget 1.9) From the wget document and after much googling, i understand that the actual (or latest) behaviour for this parameter is: ‘--output-document=file’file. The documents will not be written to the appropriate files, but all will be concatenated together and written to Problem is the the PROD behavior is the 'correct' one for this legacy program. And the UNIX administrators will upgrade the wget in PROD to 1.12. This legacy program will fail. Unfortunately, my team do not have control/say over the UNIX environments. Question - is it possible to configure in the wgetrc to just download the first file instead of merging the files into 1 file? Or have it in the parameter? I need the output to be File.csv.. I am desperate for help, searched high and low on the internet, and tried some of the parameters but to no avail. Please help. Thanks
