[pca] PCA & WGET issues

[Coskun, Aydin]

Hey Martin,

No there is no characters (like " or ' or \) in the password. I
deliberately used only UPPER CASE and lowercase mixed with numbers in
the password no special characters. 

Please see the debug output below. Looks like we have another problem at
this time, the "getupdates.oracle.com" can't be resolved. I have tried
to access it from two different networks but no luck. 

I know this is not related to my initial issue but do you folks know if
anything changed between last year and now on this
"getupdates.oracle.com" address?

Just to be sure: You aren't using any quotation characters (like " or '
or \) in 
WWWWWWW, are you? The password should be written here as-is.

Please comment out this option:

Then run "/pca/Scripts/pca --debug -d 119254-78" again and show the
debug output.
