Previously I have downloaded the website using an offline browser called extreme picture finder. 90 % 0f the files of which I want have been successfully downloaded and so I want to download remaining 10 %. I have read the manual page of wget and examined some of the tutorials found by searching web related to wget. I have tried what I found in tutorials and I am providing the output of those commands. I have issued the command as below wget -c -t 0 --recursive --force-directories -o logfile.txt ‐‐recursive ‐‐no-clobber ‐‐accept jpg,gif,png,jpeg,mp3,MP3,pdf For the above command I got the output as belowidn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://%E2%80%90%E2%80%90recursive/ Resolving ‐‐recursive (‐‐recursive)... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘‐‐recursive’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://%E2%80%90%E2%80%90no-clobber/ Resolving ‐‐no-clobber (‐‐no-clobber)... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘‐‐no-clobber’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://%E2%80%90%E2%80%90accept/ Resolving ‐‐accept (‐‐accept)... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘‐‐accept’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://jpg,gif,png,jpeg,mp3,mp3,pdf/ Resolving jpg,gif,png,jpeg,mp3,mp3,pdf (jpg,gif,png,jpeg,mp3,mp3,pdf)... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘jpg,gif,png,jpeg,mp3,mp3,pdf’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ idn_encode failed (-304): ‘string contains a disallowed character’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://%E2%80%90%E2%80%90directory-prefix=/mnt/source/downloads/lectures/ Resolving ‐‐directory-prefix= (‐‐directory-prefix=)... failed: Name or service not known. wget: unable to resolve host address ‘‐‐directory-prefix=’ --2017-09-29 18:08:43-- http://www.pravachanam.com/categorybrowselist/20 Resolving www.pravachanam.com (www.pravachanam.com)... 162.144.54.142 Connecting to www.pravachanam.com (www.pravachanam.com)|162.144.54.142|:80... connected.

After that I have issued the command as below wget ‐‐level=1 ‐‐recursive ‐‐no-parent ‐‐no-clobber ‐‐accept mp3,MP3 http://www.pravachanam.com/categorybrowselist/20 On executing the above command it has created outfile.txt file and a directory called www.pravachanam.com under my current directory. wget has created some directories but not same as the source website I mean it has not maintained the directory structure same as source website.In the outfile.txt I have found some lines ending with .mp3 and I have tried to examined the corresponding file in the directory created by wget but failed to locate the file and even failed to directory structure related to mp3 file. I have installed and tried gwget which is the gnomes GUI for wget and in that I have tried a number of options or settings but it has failed to download I mean it has downloaded the home page and then stopped and after that it has displayed message as successfully completed downloading the website. In the GUI version of wget there is no options for selecting all the options found in the command line version of wget. Please try suggest how to download mp3 files from a website with the following options using wget. 1)option for maintaining directory structure same as source website. 2)option for rejecting download of already downloaded files I mean skip those. 3)As I want to download all the mp3 files except the folders and files containing some words like xyz and so can you suggest how to skip download if the files or folders contain xyz in their names. 4) option to download files recursively and not to visit other website's. 5) option to try downloading files infinitely in the case of network failure. 6) option to resume download the files which are downloaded partially previously. 7) option to download only mp3 and reject all other file types if possible including html,php,css files. Many of you may suggest that try to the manual page of wget and experiment on your own but taking advice and help from expert people like you is the signal to success. At present I am also reading the manuals and guides of wget but the help provided by you is most valuable. I am requesting as many people as to reply to this thread and help me. |

...where you were given ideas on how to easily write a script to download the 'missing' files. And you AGAIN show zero effort or understanding of things, because you STILL refuse to read a man page. You have issued 'your' command (which is essentially syntax you were handed by someone else, since you didn't do any of your own research), but seem to ignore the fact that YOU HAVE NOT PROVIDED A URL TO DOWNLOAD. The errors are crystal clear, if you tried to read or understand them. It's telling you point-blank that it can't resolve "--no-clobber"....why on earth does that not indicate to you that you've not put in the right syntax, or get you to read a man page?
Again, WE ARE NOT GOING TO DO THINGS FOR YOU. You've been here for years, and every thread is much in this vein, where you play the "I'm new, please help experts, I cannot read ALL THIS DOCUMENTATION...etc, etc...." every single time.
No...show effort and do your own work.
::EDIT::
Wow...really? You're just going to continue changing the wording until someone reads the man page for you and writes you a script?
