 Posted: Thu Apr 03, 2025 2:21 am Post subject: Why does my new busybox wget not work? |
 |
|
Inside a sparkly new initramfs, busybox is not doing as I ask.
New busybox wget 192.168.1.1 returns
| Code: | | wget: bad port 'http' |
Old busybox wget 192.168.1.1 successfully obtains a file.
New busybox appears to contain a complete wget:
| Code: | grep -i wget .config
CONFIG_WGET=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_LONG_OPTIONS=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_STATUSBAR=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_FTP=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_AUTHENTICATION=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_TIMEOUT=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_HTTPS=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_OPENSSL=y
|
Ah. Why does my new wget return "bad port" whereas the old wget does not?
| Code: | tmp/busybox_old | head -n 1
BusyBox v1.25.1 (2017-06-28 12:04:29 AEST) multi-call binary.
bin/busybox | head -n 1
BusyBox v1.36.1 (2025-03-30 13:43:38 AEDT) multi-call binary. |

| Code: | $ qlist -vI busybox; busybox | head -n 1; busybox wget ftp://ftp.funet.fi/dev/10Mrnd
sys-apps/busybox-1.36.1-r3

Works for me. ... but that's ftp.

wget: error getting response: Connection reset by peer |
And the config: | Code: | $ fgrep -i wget /etc/portage/savedconfig/sys-apps/busybox-1.36.1-r3
CONFIG_WGET=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_LONG_OPTIONS=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_STATUSBAR=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_FTP=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_AUTHENTICATION=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_TIMEOUT=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_HTTPS=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_WGET_OPENSSL=y |
What's the version you have installed via portage? (qlist -vI busybox).

This feel like you missing /etc/services file or something mis-configure about nss. The messages seems indicate wget cannot translate the word "http" to number. |
