Hello. Try using the --follow-redirects command-line option. Does that resolve your issue? (For all options, see this project’s README.md and/or run waybackpack -h.)

Hi,

I might add a disclaimer that I am not an experienced programmer etc, but I do my best to learn. I am running Python 3.9 and trying to setup but experiencing the follow issue:

[email protected]/bin/python3.9: can't find 'main' module in '/Users XXXXXXXXX

Any ideas?

I had a similar issue. Adding --follow-directs option solves this issue.

@BEaXt7f97 Can you provide steps to reproduce this error? Did you make any changes to the source code?

This works:

waybackpack http://acasaredonda.com.br/ -d ...

But this (note the lack of slash after the domain name) causes spurious redirects:

waybackpack http://acasaredonda.com.br -d ...

From the browser's perspective these two URLs are equivalent, so they should both work the same way in waybackpack too.

Thanks for flagging, @jwilk — very interesting. It seems that from the perspective of the Wayback Machine, these are different resources. A bit frustrating that they don't do any internal resolution. But I'd be wary of blindly choosing one URL over the other. I'd be interested for your perspective on ways to handle this, as well as the perspectives of anyone else with deep experience/familiarity with the Wayback Machine's logic.
