CentOS6 the highest version of the wget is 1.11, but it is very regrettable that this version has a bug, there is no way to download the HTTPS link, so some people to avoid this situation will help the script plus not check SSL parameters--no-check-certificate, but obviously this method I am not Especially recommended, after all, this is not without solution.
In fact, the solution is not difficult, it is to GNU to download the new version of the wget to compile and replace the action.
Here's how:
Yum-y install OpenSSL openssl-devel gcc make Perl
CD ~
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/wget/wget-1.16.tar.gz
Yum-y Remove wget
TAR-XZVF wget-1.16.tar.gz
CD wget-1.16
./configure--with-ssl=openssl
Make && make install
Ln-s/usr/local/bin/wget/usr/bin/wget
Cd..
RM-RF wget-1.16*
Once you've replaced it, you'll be happy to download it.
No workaround for wget https links under CentOS 6
