    Hi,
    I try to download some http files using wget and it works fine;
    when I try to use https:
    wget https://website.com
    I get the following error
    https://website.com: Unsupported scheme


    my installed version is

    wget -V
    GNU Wget 1.9.1

    Can you tell me where I can find a version compatible with https

    thanks

    For a newer version of wget, try installing it with yum:

    https://bitbucket.org/ibmi/opensource/src/master/docs/yum/README.md

    then you can use this command:

    wget --no-check-certificate https://website.com
