Filed under: General,linux — Tags: , , , — admin @ 7:33 am

First you need to make sure you have the latest version of wget, some distros are still being released with older versions of wget which has some bugs regarding mirroring functionality. currently the latest version is 1.13.4, so if you don’t have the latest version, you can download and build it from following link :

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/

after building the wget, make sure the latest version is being used :

wget -V

output :

GNU Wget 1.13.4 built on linux-gnu.

Wgetrc: 
    /usr/local/etc/wgetrc (system)
Locale: /usr/local/share/locale 
Compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSYSTEM_WGETRC="/usr/local/etc/wgetrc" 
    -DLOCALEDIR="/usr/local/share/locale" -I. -I../lib -I../lib -O2 
    -Wall
