Humm. Well, ain't sure why I ended up using --password instead of --http-user. But in any case even with the correct attribute wget still hangs.
So I decided to use the backup page instead of the export page and it seems to do the job for me (then I just make sure that my scheduled backup the bootstrap directory). wget --user=superuser --password=passowrd --no-check-certificate -O /var/magnolia/bootstrap/website.xml "https://localhost/cms/.magnolia/pages/developmentUtils?command=backup&templ ates=on¶graphs=on&dialogs=on&website=on&users=on&groups=on&roles=on&secu re=on&rootdir=WEB-INF%2Fbootstrap%2Fcommon" Christian > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: March 5, 2007 16:22 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [magnolia-user] Wget to backup content not working. > > From the wget man page: > > --http-user=user > --http-passwd=password > Specify the username user and password password on > an HTTP server. > According to the type of the challenge, Wget will > encode them using > either the "basic" (insecure) or the "digest" > authentication > scheme. > > Can you verify your variety of wget actually uses --user and > --password instead? wget might be waiting for login from std in. > > --David > > Christian Sylvestre wrote: > > There is nothing, no information in any log file. > > > > As for still running.
