Hi,
I am unable to wget a http link from the same server on which apache is configured.
Following is the error message.

Please have a look here:

It is an explanation why your error occurs. If you still have problems don’t be shy to ask again.

Thanks for your quick reply.
But I tried all the above steps, but still getting the same error.

(Michael Träumner) #4

Ok, can you give us some infos about the permissions of the directory please? Do you have an index-file at the directory?

=====================================
Permission for that file (Document Root) :-

drwxr-xr-x

Also I have index.php inside document root
Permission for the file index.php is :- -rw-rw-r–

Permission of file which I am unable to wget is -rw-r–r-- and name of that file is date.php

Could you have a look at your httpd.conf please. There should be the following lines:

<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.html
</IfModule>

If so, please change to:

<IfModule dir_module>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
</IfModule>

Get it from this site:

The entry is already present in the configuration file.

DirectoryIndex index.html index.php

@mrmarkuz Do you have another idea?

(Markus Neuberger) #9

No, sorry but I’ll have a deeper look at it in the evening…

To clarify further,
Its an AWS server on which I want to do wget.
The script which i want to wget, downloads and update some entry in db. Also if I run that script from firefox browser , i am able to run the script.I am getting error only when I run it from my AWS server.

(Markus Neuberger) #11

Could you please post the full wget command you used? As far as I understood only wget is not working, Firefox works. Does it work on another client with wget?

(James Shawn) #12

i remember i had this problem with steroids for sale myself. a friend of mine greatly helped me. will ask him and might come back with updates

(Jeroen Visser) #13

Is this not due to forced Options directives, that can not be overruled ? Have you tried adding date.php to the DirectoryIndex ? (not too well versed in AWS)

(Tejas) #14

@mrmarkuz
Full wget command:-

wget http://alliances.tendersinfo.com/comtex/datewise_feed.php?tender_type=projects

Although i am able to wget all other links on the server. I am facing problem with the links which are located under /home//html/services/viewdata path only.

@planet_jeroen
Tried your idea also but no luck.

(Marc) #15

Try with curl -L, it might show additional error information

(Michael Träumner) #16

Please try with:

wget -U mozilla http://alliances.tendersinfo.com/comtex/datewise_feed.php?tender_type=projects

(Tejas) #17

@m.traeumner - Tried that also but getting same error.

@dnutan - Please find the output of curl command :-
Command - curl -L (http…)
Output -

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /orientswiss/on this server.

(Michael Träumner) #18

Could you please compare the permissions of the folders and files which work for you with the permissions which don’t work.

(Tejas) #19

@m.traeumner Permission is same in both the files which i am trying to wget.

(Michael Träumner) #20

Sorry, I don’t have an other idea at the moment.
