Hello,

I am trying to download from a list of files (jpeg images). The website
utilizes Cyrillic in its URL. I get the following error message: wget:
unable to resolve host address 'xn--h-xubc'

I've checked the links manually and the do work.

I am enclosing a shortened version of the file list.

I've tried different commands to no avail:

wget.exe -i C:\dl_files\url-list.txt --secure-protocol=auto
--remote-encoding=Windows-1251 -nc -c -P C:\dl_files\

I've used Windows-1251 as I did not see a list of encoding names in the
manual https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html#Wgetrc-Commands 

wget.exe -i C:\dl_files\url-list.txt --secure-protocol=auto -nc -c -P
C:\dl_files\

 

Apparently the problem is caused by Cyrillic characters. I have inkling that
I am not using the correct options for the program.

I would appreciate if you gave me a hint on how to solve the problem. 

 

Regards,

Max
