Post by: bcliburn on January 18, 2006, 04:37:19 AM

[root@sme1 ~]# wget
-bash: wget: command not found
[root@sme1 ~]#

Anyone know how this could have happened?

This command may not be in your path.
To find out ther path, type: whereis wget

[all@canopus ~]$ whereis wget
wget: /usr/bin/wget /usr/share/man/man1/wget.1.gz

In your particular case, try:  /usr/bin/wget

I know I am a linux newb but could I have un-installed it without knowing it?

I finnaly tried 'yum install wget' and now it works again... :oops:

wget is standard issue on the two systems I just checked, sme 6.01 and sme 7-preRC1. Hard to tell what happened.  To check if an wget is installed, do: rpm -qa | grep wget   . To check all installed rpms, do:  rpm -qa | sort | less and scroll up and down the list. All the best and enjoy SME!
