Hi, I've a problem with wget, and hope that you'll be able to help me :
I've to download biological DBs on a weekly basis and I use wget.on a PC-linux system The problem is that one on the DBs has recently raised the size of... 2186384957 bytes ! (cf ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/blast/db/nt.Z) I noticed an error during download. In fact, the file was correctly downloaded, but wget returned an error status, and the progress status showed a negative progress (from 0 to -101%). The header of the log file was as follow : --16:25:38-- ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/%2Fblast/db/nt.Z => `nt.Z' ==> CWD not required. ==> PORT ... done. ==> RETR nt.Z ... done. Length: -2,108,582,339 I use the latest version (1.8.2), that I tried to compile with the 'large file' options (-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64), without any success... Thanks for any help you could give me. Congratulations for wget : really nice tool ! T.
