error: Cannot open cookies file

[juandavidgutier]

I am trying to download the products Tair_f_inst and Rainf_f_tavg of GLDAS (3/12/2023 4:15 EST). First, I downloaded a link list using the Data Access option (Subset/Get Data) of Giovanni. I get the name of the files to save in my computer from the list (subset_GLDAS_NOAH025_M_2.1_20231203_200550_.csv). I am using the wget method to download the files and include the next line for extra argument of download.file function, extra = paste('--load-cookies ~/.urs_cookies --save-cookies ~/.urs_cookies --keep-session-cookies --user=', NASA_user, ' --password=', NASA_pw, ' --content-disposition', sep = "")

However, I get the next error: Cannot open cookies file '~/.urs_cookies': No such file or directory
Error in download.file(url = url, destfile = paste(save_directory_path, :
'wget' call had nonzero exit status

Here is my code in R, and I am using R-4.0.5 with Windows 11

NASA_user <- 'xxx'
NASA_pw <- 'yyy'

list = read.csv("D:/clases/UDES/scripts/nasa/script_month/subset_GLDAS_NOAH025_M_2.1_20231203_200550_.csv", sep=",", header=FALSE, stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

directory_save <- "D:/clases/UDES/scripts/nasa/"

first_position_name_list = 144
last_position_name_list = 157

save_directory_path <- directory_save

x <- length(list[,1])
name<- c(1:x)

for(i in (1:x)){
url = list[i,1]
name[i] <- substr(list[i,1], first_position_name_list, last_position_name_list)

download.file(url = url,
destfile = paste(save_directory_path, name[i] , sep = ""),
method = 'wget',
extra = paste('--load-cookies ~/.urs_cookies --save-cookies ~/.urs_cookies --keep-session-cookies --user=', NASA_user, ' --password=', NASA_pw, ' --content-disposition', sep = ""))
}


Here is the head of the list:

Hello,

Unfortunately, I get the same error (Error in download.file(url = url, destfile = paste(save_directory_path, :
'wget' call had nonzero exit status) when I try to download the files using the script I shared with you. Previously, I did not tell you that I am using wget version 1.19.4.

I appreciate it a lot if you could help me to solve the problem.

Best regards,

Juan
