Ubuntu :: 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:

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.

By issuing the 'nm' command on shared library (internally using one static library), the functions exposed by static library is also being listed, Which allows to use internal functions which is of course not intended. I have one static library having A(), B() and C() functions. Creating one shared library which has function XYS() that is using A() and B() functions from Static library. While doing 'nm' on shared library, all the static library function are being listed.

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?

Is there a way to set up a custom keyboard layout? (ex: set q to the f key, etc.) I have looked around, but have been unable to find one.
If there isn't one, then a (basically) equivalent solution for me would be to map some of the symbols I need (ex: Δx,Σ,ect.) to ctrl-/,ctrl-., ect. through keyboard shortcuts. The problem I run into here is that I do not know of any commands that paste a specific symbol into the focused text input area. Does anyone know of one?

I am trying to connect to the web interface found at [URL] using curl. This first requires login information to be entered at [URL], but I am having an issue with the login process. I am trying to submit the following form via POST:
Code:
<form action="j_security_check" method="post" id="login_form" name="login_form">
<center> <table style="background: #cac1cf;FONT-SIZE: 12px;">
<tr> <td align="center" colspan="2">Please enter your username and password:</td>
</tr> <tr> <td align="right">Username</td>
<td> <input name="j_username" style="width: 250px" id="j_username" type="text"/> </td>
</tr> <tr>
<td align="right">Password</td>
<td> <input style="width: 250px" name="j_password" id="j_password" type="password"/> </td>
</tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center">
<input value="Enter" name="enter" type="submit"/>
<input value="Clear" name="Clear" type="reset"/>
</td> </tr> </table> </center> </form>
The command that I am using for this is the following:
Code:
curl -c cookies -b cookies -L -d "j_username=user%40domain.com&j_password=pass" [URL]
The command is properly formatted as far as I can tell. I tested it with another website using a similar authentication scheme using different POST variables specific to the form and it worked fine.
When I run the above command with the -v tag, it reveals this:
Code:

I cannot tell why the login timeout is expired when I try to do this, and my investigation toward this end has been fruitless. I saw a brief snippet on Google that vaguely suggested that the underscores in the domain name were at fault, but replacing these with their encoded counterparts did nothing to resolve the issue (that, and underscores should be fine when sent unencoded according to the standards). I have extensively perused the man pages and have come up with nothing to adequately explain this behavior. I also talked to a friend who has worked with curl in his line of work, but he mostly has experience in the context of PHP and has not dealt with this issue before. I am running GNU/Linux 2.6.35-22-generic-pae.

I have Ubuntu 9.10 installed and up to date.
I have an HP Laserjet 2200 connected via USB with 64MB of memory. When I print page 2 of this document (for example) [URL] the delta-symbol and minus-signs do not show up, although I see them in Adobe reader version 9.3.
I have tried several of the available drivers for the printer (including the "[recommended]" one) and none of them produce these symbols.
I'm guessing this is a font issue. I don't know how to show you what font stuff I have installed.

I have a quirky situation whereby I'm using SED to selectively comment out a line in a crontab job (on Solaris, I know but it's connected to the Linux function I'm working with).
What's happening is this.
Remove hash symbol
Code:
/opt/csw/bin/gsed -i '/^.*/usr/local/scripts/mirror-fix.sh.*/ s/^#//' $TEMPFILE
Restore hash symbol
Code:
/opt/csw/bin/gsed -i '/^.*/usr/local/scripts/mirror-fix.sh.*/ s/^/#/' $TEMPFILE
The problem I'm running into is that the script can sometimes prepend an extra hash # symbol if run more than once (I have a lockfile that I poll for to discourage this, but that's not perfect).
I wonder how I can modify that sed statement to remove any/all leading hash marks up to the first other character, in this case it's a 0 (zero) which is a crontab file.

I have a Cygwin script that connects to a web site with the bash command "curl". Phasing out Windows, I need to port everything to Linux. Ubuntu bash doesn't recognize "curl". There has got to be an equivalent.What would it be? Beneath the dashed line the top of the cygwin man page. And while on the topic of the bash commands available on Ubuntu, where could I find an exhaustive list?

I've been installing/tweaking F12, and I've found something that I can't say I've ever seen or expected to find before: the contents of my ~/Documents folder has lost its permissions and ownership info. I restored it from a backup last night/this morning, and I've rebooted a few times since then. Other folders from the backup are OK, just Documents.I don't know what my options are. I could try to blow it away and restore it, but that doesn't answer what caused it. If there's a "relabel" or something, that might help... though I've never had to do it before. Could it be that after these two-and-some-change years, my hard drive is giving out? Good thing I have a recent backup... but it'd be a shame to lose all my work getting F12 to work again.
