Wget error while downloading from https website

Hi,

I would like to download a file from a https website. I don't have the file name as it changes every day.

I am using the following command:

Code:
wget --no-check-certificate -r  -np --user=ABC --password=DEF -O temp.txt https://<website/directory>

I am getting followin error in my temp.txt file:
Quote:
Unable to load xml from message: Root element is missing.
I searched the entire forum and did google search but nothing helpful.

I plan to write shell script to automate this once I make this wget command to work.

Help is appreciated.
