http://www.unix.com – Hi Everyone, I have a problem with wget using an input file of URLs. When I execute this -> wget -i URLs.txt I get the login.php pages transferred but not the files I have in the URLs.txt file. I need to use the input file because it will have new products to download each week. I want my VA to fill that file with the URLs that we need to transfer to my server. There must be some login necessary as I must login through http with a user name and password. Is that what I need on the command line or is there a cookie type problem,. See, I can login and download the files just fine but want (HowTos)

Stories similar to Wget -i URLs.txt problem

Introduction wget and cur, are great Linux operating system commands to download files. But you may face problems when all you have is a dynamic url.

How do I download a file retrieved via a GET request? I tried wget http://www.example.com/?page=download&dl=123 and wget http://www.example.com/dl.php?dl=123, but they don't work. Going to the URLs in a browser works fine, but wget and curl don't. How can I download the file from the command-line?

I am trying to pass a URL into a variable so that I can call it later with wget in order to import dynamic data. Here's my thought process. First, I take a file (stat.txt) that has several lines of different URLs with identifying tags before the http:// and pull out the handful of lines that I need with grep. Then I strip the identifying tags off to obtain the URLs by themselves through sed.

I've found only puf (Parallel URL fetcher) but could to get it work with reading urls from file and something like

puf < urls.txt

does not work either.

The operating system installed on the server is ubuntu.

Introduction wget is a wonderful tool, specially when you need to download files on remote servers / machines.

wget output file names 44 weeks 1 day ago

Hi,

I have a list of urls in my input.txt file like this

input.txt

Code: http://unix.com/index.html?acc=OSR765454&file=filename1.gz http://unix.com/index.html?acc=OBR765454&file=filename111.gz http://unix.com/index.html?acc=ORS765454&file=filename1111.gz http://unix.com/index.html?acc=OST76454&file=filename11111.gz http://unix.com/index.html?acc=OS5454&file=filename1111

We will migrate an entire intranet from one CMS to another. All URLs will change in a non-predictable pattern, but I can capture a file with original,new URLs I can feed into anything. I have hundred thousands of URLs, not just a few hundred.

What I would like to do: every URL that is not found (404) should be checked against the database and if a new URL found a 301/308 issued instead.

Hallo guys, I am new to Linux, I like to transfer multiple files from server A to server B. Source files URLs (from server A) are in a file called "list.txt" Eg.

PHP Upgrade questions 2 years 26 weeks ago

Hi,

Using CentOS5, I had PHP upgraded from 5.1.6 to 5.2.10.

While using 5.1.6, I was able to include a URL from another site, after the upgrade that no longer worked.

I went to the php.ini file and looked under

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Fopen wrappers ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

I ONLY SAW THIS LINE: ; Whether to allow the treatment of URLs (like http:// or ftp://) as files. allow_url_fopen = On
