Please do not use SourceForge as your source for Guacamole release artifacts. 
Since there are still a significant number of downloads at that location, no 
doubt largely from third-party automated scripts, recent release artifacts have 
been uploaded there, but it should be considered a secondary downstream 
distribution channel that exists only for compatibility's sake. You will not 
find any links to SourceForge on the Guacamole website, release notes, or 
current documentation. New scripts (and humans) should not use it. The only 
exception here is historical, pre-Apache releases.

The proper location is that hosted by the ASF and can be found through the 
downloads section of the release notes for the release in question:

http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/releases/0.9.13-incubating/

In this case, the full URL to the artifact would be:

http://apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi?action=download&filename=incubator/guacamole/0.9.13-incubating/binary/guacamole-auth-jdbc-0.9.13-incubating.tar.gz

The SourceForge download thing looks to rely on JavaScript within an HTML page 
to facilitate mirror selection and download, which will only work with a 
browser and will break usage of wget. I'm not sure whether there is an 
alternative URL which would work with wget, but please just switch over to 
using the correct download location hosted by the ASF.
