download from command prompt

rmugunthan · 11-17-2011, 11:11 AM

Hi,

Someone explain how to pass the authentication information in "wget" to download file from the oracle OTN site.

OR any other options are available to download from the oracle OTN site form the linux command prompt.

i am using RHEL 5.4 64bit OS...

Perhaps something like:

Code:

wget --user=user --password=password http://whatever/file

Kind regards

You can also use text-based browsers like links or w3m for that.

kindofabuzz · 11-17-2011, 11:24 AM

Code:

man wget

hi,

I tried with "elinks" browser, from that unable to download. Also i tried with "--user and --password" options in "wget", this also not helps to me..

Any other ideas or concerns on this???

Well, I searched on net and found it is issue with wget not able to parse more than 255 chars in a file name.

The file you are trying to download has a long name, so it is causing issues.

As per the link http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?21714

it is solved in wget version 1.12!. If you are using old version, then please upgrade. If the newer version is not present in the OS repo then install it using rpm/deb.

If nothing works, simply download it to a Windows machine and then use winscp to send it to the linux machine (Port 22 needs to be allowed for the Windows IP in the Linux box).

Hoping for a simpler solution.
