General :: Curl - Download A File From A Website In Command Line?

Aug 9, 2011

I need to download a file from a website which has a URL formatted like:

[URL]

This redirects to a .zip file which has to be saved. There is also a need to authenticate based on username and password.

I tried to use wget, curl and lynx with no luck.

UPDATE:

wget doesnt work with redirection. It simply downloads the webpage instead of the zip file. curl gives the error "Maximum redirection exceeded > 50 " lynx also gives the same error.

General :: Curl -K Command Outputs Weird Symbols Instead Of Downloading URL From File?

May 16, 2011

I'm on Ubuntu 11.04. I have read around about how to use curl to download a list of URLs from a text file, and everyone says to use Code:curl -K URLlist.txt. This is what the curl man page says as well. However, for even a simple file with one URL, this command outputs a bunch of weird symbols for me instead of downloading the file.For example, I have a text file "test.txt" with one line in the following format:

Code:
url = "http://www.example.com/image.jpg"
I use the curl command to download this file:

General :: Download NVIDIA Driver From The Command Line After Kernel Update?

Nov 19, 2009

General :: Curl - Curl API To Configure Only The Required Protocol?

Jun 24, 2010

Is there any curl API to configure only the required protocol. If I have proper openssl installed, the installed curl will have all the protocols (like HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, File etc...) supported by default. Is there any way to allow or disallow only some of the protocol at the runtime. Say I need to support only HTTPS, FILE and I dont want to allow HTTP. Is there any way to do this?

General :: One Line Command To Delete All But The Last N Revisions Of A File

Mar 31, 2011

What's a Unix/Linux one-liner that will let me delete all but the most recent N revisions of each file?

I've got a bunch of files with revision numbers as part of a legacy asset-management system:

Sep 9, 2011

I've got files in a directory as follows:

I want to list all the files that don't have a copy with the same filename with -1 somewhere in it. So, in the example above, the results would be 3.png.

NB: the file and its copy with "-1" in it will be the same filesize, if that helps.

General :: Send A File From One Computer To Another By Command Line?

Jan 27, 2010

I've got a Debian Squeeze computer on which the graphics have packed up, but the terminal in single user mode work perfectly fine.

There are a few files on this Debian computer that I want to transfer off, to a networked computer, but I have no idea how to do this.

The destination computer is a freshly re-setup Mandriva install, without (as yet) samba. I don't think it's necessary though. The Mandriva install works fine, has graphics, etc, but can't see the Debian Squeeze computer on the network, possibly because it's in single user mode, thus prompting the problem of how to transfer the files, using only a command line.
