Hey Hoffman, Thanks for the solid solution. But I am stuck in again. $wget http://build.ofbiz.org/ofbiz-trunk-current.zip or $wget http://build.ofbiz.org/ofbiz-rel9.04-current.zip typing those commands ofbiz.zip is not downloaded anyway. so, have no idea of downloading it. What should be the command exactly. even I tried lw-download something like this. Not working. I find an error 404 not found. like the page cannot be found in any browser we see. 404 error means the same. So.. please help me. Thanks
