I tried webttrack on Debian stable and ran into the same problem, looked in to searches for why for a while. After being frustrated and saying things should not be this way. Computers are not supposed to make things more difficult, but easier, right?
On an impulse I did an: aptitude search httrack p httrack - Copy websites to your computer (Offline browser) p httrack-doc Httrack website copier additional documentation p libhttrack-dev - Httrack website copier includes and development files i A libhttrack2 - Httrack website copier library i webhttrack - Copy websites to your computer, httrack with a Web interface i A webhttrack-common So I installed httrack and it worked straight away: httrack "http://yoursite.ca/"; -O "~/yourdirectory" When it's done point your browser to: yourdirectory/index.html http://btmash.com/article/2011-05-25/mirroring-website-using-httrack Very cool No GUI or web browser, just command line. But it works right now, and I am good with that. Keep it simple works sometimes. On Tue, 2014-02-25 at 15:20 -0700, Zander Robertson wrote: > You would think that should work.
