Problems with TProcess and wget

[kevinspencer33]

I'm trying to do a kind of wget front-end, and I have a big problem with Tprocess... the program executes well programs but never appears the index.html file I try todownload for testing. I'm not sure if it's downloaded and I can't find it or it don't work at all.

Code: [Select]

procedure TForm1.BitBtn3Click(Sender: TObject);
var AStringList: TStringList;
begin
   AStringList := TStringList.Create;
   Process1.CommandLine := 'wget '+ edit1.Text;
   Process1.CurrentDirectory := '/home/isaac/';
   form1.Caption:= Process1.CommandLine;
   Process1.Options := Process1.Options + [poWaitOnExit];
   Process1.Execute;
   AStringList.Free;
end;           
I hope somebody can help me.

   Process1.CommandLine := FindDefaultExecutablePath('wget')+' '+ edit1.Text;

Thanks bu it seems that this isn't  the problem... i thing the problem is the output file, because  I can execute other programs.
I've put this line

Code: [Select]

Process1.CurrentDirectory := '/home/isaac/';just to try if its downloaded to  "/home/isaac/"... and it don't work... 

Or there is another way to do it?

Try using an explicit -o for output when calling wget.

Tried too... no results....

And I discovered something : the  "Process1.ExitStatus" returns 2.... so I'll Google it later and try to figure out what's happening.

I installed a newer version of Lazarus, and Tprocess work well... but the project that i was coding don't run well... so lucky is the first part of the program that I've write.
