Hi,

I use now the latest version (23.03.2018 Version 11.2) but somehow wget64.exe is crashing.
Maybe someone has an solution for this? 11.1 works fine (i thing its using the x86 version of wget).

I have a x64 bit system and OS...

Kind Regards

This happens with current wget versions when file name scrolling is enabled (which it is by default). Try the .wgetrc posted by boco here :arrow: viewtopic.php?p=25379#p25379 in your %UserProfile% directory.

okay I have created a file with notepad and saved like .wgetrc ( and copied to my %userprofile%)
And put this information in it.

timeout = 60
continue = off
progress = bar:noscroll
http_keep_alive = off

But still crashing :(

Sorry, my bad. wget looks for .wgetrc in %HOME% which is not set by default on Windows. You have to either set %HOME% to %UserProfile% like this
Code: Select all
set HOME=%UserProfile%
or point wget to the .wgetrc file with
Code: Select all
set WGETRC=%UserProfile%\.wgetrc
(or any other path you see fit). For both approaches you can use the file wsusoffline\cmd\custom\InitializationHook.cmd (rename from .cmdt). But make sure the file is really named ".wgetrc", not ".wgetrc.txt" as Notepad likes to add this extension when not "All files" is selected as file type.

Simply having .wgetrc in the same directory as wget.exe is enough.

Moin!

Der .wgetrc-Eintrag korrespondiert sicherlich mit den Optionen

Code: Select all
       --progress=TYPE             select progress gauge type
       --show-progress             display the progress bar in any verbosity mode

...für die Kommandozeile, oder?
Was soll ich da denn mal setzen?

Danke & Gruß

See wget Help/Manpage (search for "scroll"):
Code: Select all
−−progress=bar:noscroll

Hi problem solved. The solution of Boco has worked ;)
Little minor problem when I create an ISO of the W10 updates I get during the update an error

w100-x64\nld\sxs folder not found (I guess enable .net 3.5)

I will try to solve this manually :D
And I will let you know in this thread...

Kind Regards, Rene

*edit my minor problem has solved. just copy the sxs folder from the install media in to the client folder :lol:

Uff, schwierig einzuschätzen. Sagen wir so: da es ja diesen Thread hier gibt, der eine (hoffentlich) funktionierende Problembehebung enthält, erachte ich die Dringlichkeit als nicht so hoch. Aber mal sehen, wann die nächste Welle von Hilferufen eintrifft (weil die Suche nach "wget" im Forum nicht funktioniert :evil:).
