| httrack warns that it couldn't create a temporary reference file when I use it
to fetch a Python script.
I run the httrack -g command to fetch the script in an empty directory and see
this output:

The script downloads just fine.
Apart from the warning, everything apparently works.
This last appeared on the forum in 2009 and there was no clear resolution.

To answer the questions from that thread:
I have plenty of space left on the disk.
I have full permissions on the directory.
It's not clear what the complete file name of the temporary reference file
should be.
