Daniel Manrique, thank you for following up on this issue. The recommendation you posted worked like a charm:
wget -c "http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/info.aspx?na=41&SrcFamilyId=1CD6ACF9-CE06 -4E1C-8DCF- F33F669DBC3A&SrcDisplayLang=en&u=http%3a%2f%2fdownload.microsoft.com%2fdownload%2fe%2fa%2f9 %2fea913c8b-51a7-41b7-8697-9f0d0a7274aa%2fExcelViewer.exe" -O ExcelViewer.exe As well, I was/am using an ext4 filesystem. Despite this, as long as the functionality to download the previously mentioned file is available with the appropriate switches we can chalk this up to this being an education issue and mark this Invalid. ** Changed in: wget (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/714399 Title: wget not downloading ExcelViewer.exe To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wget/+bug/714399/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
