Hi.
The steps in my reply were 1) to make sure I got the same response as you, 2) to try a different download mechanism to see if it was different, and 3) to try a text-mode browser to see if it was able to figure out the URL.
So looking at the results, 1) I was able to verify your error, 2) I saw as RudiC pointed out that the file had apparently been moved at IMF and it showed a re-direct URL, 3)I noted the
links2 browser was able to follow the re-direct, but it required some manual interaction.
I don't know anything about finances or the IMF, but I thought that the fiscal year rolled over at July 01, the date at which you seemed to start having trouble.
It's possible that
wget and/or
curl might have the ability to follow a re-direct, but if so, then they are not set to do that by default on my machine.
In poking around at the IMF, I was able to see lots of links at
IMF Data , and some of them pointed to to places like:
http://www.imf.org/external/np/sta/c...015/042915.pdf
You may need to seek advice from IMF folks, and/or look around the IMF web-pages to see if the data in which you are interested can be found in some place other than the URL to which you usually use, in the manner you usually use.
Best wishes ... cheers, drl

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Ns_AbsoluteUrl, Ns_ParseUrl, Ns_RelativeUrl, Ns_SkipUrl - URL manipulation routines
SYNOPSIS
#include "ns.h"
int
Ns_AbsoluteUrl(Ns_DString *pds, char *url, char *baseurl)
int
Ns_ParseUrl(char *url, char **pprotocol, char **phost,
char **pport, char **ppath, char **ptail)
char *
Ns_RelativeUrl(char *url, char *location)
char *
Ns_SkipUrl(Ns_Request *request, int n)
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Ns_AbsoluteUrl(pds, url, baseurl)
Construct an URL based on baseurl but with as many parts of the incomplete url as possible. Return NS_OK or NS_ERROR.
Ns_ParseUrl(url, pprotocol, phost, pport, ppath, ptail)
Parse a URL into its component parts. Pointers to the protocol, host, port, path, and "tail" (last path element) will be set by ref-
erence in the passed-in pointers. The passed-in url will be modified.
Ns_RelativeUrl(url, location)
If the url passed in is for this server, then the initial part of the URL is stripped off. e.g., on a server whose location is
http://www.foo.com, Ns_RelativeUrl of "http://www.foo.com/hello" will return "/hello". Returns a pointer to the beginning of the
relative url in the passed-in url, or NULL if error. Will set errno on error.
Ns_SkipUrl(request, n)
Return a pointer n elements into the request's url.
