Hello, I am a former computer tech, and I've followed all instructions closely regarding wget. I am using wget 1.9 in conjunction with the wgetgui program.
I have confirmed resumability with smaller binary files, up to 2.3 gigabytes in size. What happens is, that when downloading the wikipedia database, which is about 8 gigabytes, using wget, the download proceeds and is resumable up to about the 4 gig mark, then, when I attempt resumption, the internet connection appears to be working, but the file just sits there, and doesn't increase in size. I theorize that the datastream is being corrupted, and my next step will be to "shave" pieces of the file off the end, in several megabyte increments, until I reach the uncorrupted part. Please let me know what's going on and why this is happening at this email address, as I am not a developer and not currently subscribed to the mailing list, but I do need to have wget working properly to get the database. Thanks, Jonathan. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
