I got historic house prices in UK from: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/price-paid-data-downloads

I ran the link for all historic house prices:

wget http://prod.publicdata.landregistry.gov.uk.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/pp-complete.csv -P /dbfs/FileStore/tables

to download the file.

I tried multiple times, and get a small file, 7MB:

The webpage says it is 4GB:

Any suggestions what I can be doing wrong?

Should that:

wget -P <path> <URL>

Your case:

wget -P /dbfs/FileStore/tables http://prod.publicdata.landregistry.gov.uk.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/pp-complete.csv

More detail: wget

Update:

wget -P /dbfs/FileStore/tables  --no-check-certificate --no-proxy http://prod.publicdata.landregistry.gov.uk.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/pp-complete.csv

  • Do you have enough free space in your directory? Try to continue downloading : wget -c prod.publicdata.landregistry.gov.uk.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazon… in the same directory you were during the original download.

  • as downloading, I got this error: *** WARNING: skipped 2928116 bytes of output *** . The number corresponds to the missing data. Very odd
