Yes, I just tried it on a host that didn't have it. Centos 6.5 64bit After installing the minecraft module & java I pressed the download and install button which gave me this:
Creating base directory /usr/local/minecraft ..
Failed to get server download URL
If I try it again it just tells me:
Failed to get server download URL

It reported no urls in the download cache. I rebooted both servers and
tried it it again. Both failed. I upgraded one to Webmin 1.68 and it tried
it with no luck. If I look in the webmin log file, I see this: Error:

This error has appeared on both an Ubuntu (16.04beta) and a Debian 9.0 server, with Webmin 1.791 and the released Minecraft module as well as latest Git.
Clearing cache makes no difference.
Miniserv log shows (this is with latest Git minecraft module):

If you're running on Windows and just want to set up a server easily, download minecraft_server.1.9.exe and run it.

Are you running that wget command on the same host as Webmin and your Minecraft server? Because I've seen cases in which the CDN (cloudflare) in front of minecraft.net can block access to the website from some IPs.
ALso, the latest release of the module in github allows you to specify a version to download on the Module Config page.

Odd, this works OK for me. Does it happen if you re-try the download?
This is in the webmin error log

New install. But it still does it even if there is a server jar in the directory.
New install

I just did a fresh install of Webmin and the minecraft module, performed the initial download of the .jar from within Webmin, and it worked fine.
Maybe it's something in my distribution. What did you use?

Ubuntu, but that shouldn't matter.
Try clearing Webmin's download cache at Webmin -> Webmin Configuration -> Proxy Servers and Downloads.
It reported no urls in the download cache. I rebooted both servers and
tried it it again. Both failed. I upgraded one to Webmin 1.68 and it tried

I just noticed this when ran this under the root user.
wget -O - -q https://minecraft.net/download/ | grep 'minecraft_server'
It makes this file name '-' in the directory and no I don't know how to
delete it.
You can delete it with :
rm ./-

Yes, it is one and the same host and wget downloaded the desired minecraft.jar.
Aha, that helped. Entering 1.9 it downloads it fine. Using "latest" fails as described above so I guess a regex issue.
Last edit: ryates 2016-03-21
seems that the URL that gives the latest version now is:
https://minecraft.net/en/download/server
