Hi all ! It might be a bug in wget (or me not being a pro with messages ...).
I wrote a simple bash program performing some periodic wget request and some sleeps between each request called prequest.sh I do execute this program through ssh and I would like this program to run even if ssh connexion is lost. I did use in ssh : nohup ./prerequest >/dev/null 2>&1 & Now here is my “bug” If I use wget with -q option, it runs fine and keeps running even if disconnected I I use directly wget without -q, it runs fine but wget are not performed if i’m disconnected. Prequest seems to run as the sleeps are done. I honnestly see no links between the -q option (no output) and the ssh disconnection effects and I’m very interested in understanding the issue or let you know that there might be a bug in wget. Thansks all and have a great day. Lionel Deschamps
