RE: wget hangs or downloads end up incomplete in Windows 2000 X P.
I tried --passive-ftp parameter on the Windows 2000 machine, and it hung during a file download with 3 seconds left. Never timed out. :( -- Ants.

Not really. I know XP has its ICF enabled but 2000 doesn't have one. I can try it and see what happens. I added --passive-ftp parameter after wget.exe part.

What did the log say when wget seemed to hang or regarding to the missing or corrupt files, or regarding the parsing of the directory index (or whatever it was) linking to those files ? If nothing usefull is logged, try again with -d (but be prepared, a huge amount of information will be logged - better redirect it to a file with -o log.txt or -a log.txt).

Hello. I downloaded wget v1.9.1 (complete) from http://xoomer.virgilio.it/hherold/. I am having problems in downloading almost a GB of files (over 2600 files and 250 folders). Randomly, the download will just stall completely and never resume OR the download completes, but download is corrupted (sometimes missing files and subfolders). I also had this problem with old v1.8.2. The only way to fix is to set pause one second for each process, but this takes too long (almost an hour) with so many files and folders! Here's what I am using in batch file (download.bat -- changed URLs, account, and passwords for sample): @call wget -c -l0 -r -nH -w0 ftp://domain\username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Unreleasedbuilds /blah/blah/1/setups/SUBSETUP/* @call wget -c -l0 -r -nH -w0 ftp://domain\username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Unreleasedbuilds /blah/blah/1/setups/SUBSETUP/* I used a Pentium 3 1 Ghz system (512 MB of RAM) with Windows 2000 SP4 (all updates) and a Pentium 4 3 Ghz (HT enabled) with Windows XP Home SP1 (all updates). Each computer is using 100mb connection for network. Doing a copy in Windows' Explorer through network share has NO problems. I assume this method is slower transfer compared to wget command. I'd like to use script so I don't have to do this manually. ;)
wget v1.9 (Windows port) newbie needs help in download files recursively...
Hi. I am trying to get wget.exe v1.9 to work under Windows 9x and NT5 OS', but I cannot get it to work the way I want it. I am trying to download subfolders/subdiretories and binary files recursively from a specified folder. Notes: The FTP server is Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0). The password has $1 in it. I revised the texts to not show the real details due to private information. The example is in Windows 2000 SP4's CLI: C:\test\wget-v1.9wget -r ftp://domainname\user_name:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/builds/productname/version/8/subfolder/layout/* --14:07:02-- ftp://domainname%5Cuser_name:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/builds/productname/version/8/subfolder/layout/* = `192.168.0.222/builds/productname/version/8/subfolder/layout/.listing' Connecting to 192.168.0.222:21... connected. Logging in as domainname\user_name ... Logged in! == SYST ... done.== PWD ... done. == TYPE I ... done. == CWD /builds/productname/version/8/subfolder/layout ... done . == PORT ... done.== LIST ... done. accept: Unknown error I can do a manual FTP login and stuff without any problems, but can't do recursive downloads (limited due to ftp.exe). Any ideas?
