Update of bug #55771 (project wget):
Status: None => Inspected
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #2:
The current version 1.20.3 saves 'rufus-3.4p.exe' in case 3. You are using an
older Mingw32 version. Could you try the 1.20.3 version from
https://eternallybored.org/misc/wget/ to make sure if it's a Mingw or a wget
1.20 issue !?
The cases 1+2 show an issue with long Location: headers that would create file
names with more than 255 characters in length. As 255 seems to be your max
file name length, wget tries to shorten these names too early. Wget also does
not send Cookie: headers in the second HEAD request that are set in the 302
response before. This might be the reason for the 403 Forbidden.
This needs investigation.
GNU Wget2 (current master) does not have any of these issues. But i can't
point you to an WIN32 executable.
