Im trying to extract a line from wget’s result but having trouble with it. This is my wget call:

$ wget -SO- -T 1 -t 1 http://myurl.com:15000/myhtml.html

Output:

 --18:24:12--  http://xxx.xxxx.xxxx:15000/myhtml.html            => `-' Resolving xxx.xxxx.xxxx... xxx.xxxx.xxxx Connecting to xxx.xxxx.xxxx|xxx.xxxx.xxxx|:15000... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response...   HTTP/1.1 302 Found   Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2008 23:24:12 GMT   Server: IBM_HTTP_Server   Expires: Thu, 01 Dec 1994 16:00:00 GMT   Location: https://xxx.xxxx.xxxx/siteminderagent/...   Content-Length: 508   Keep-Alive: timeout=10, max=100   Connection: Keep-Alive   Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Location: https://xxx.xxxx.xxxx//siteminderagent/... --18:24:13--  https://xxx.xxxx.xxxx/siteminderagent/...            => `-' Resolving xxx.xxxx.xxxx... failed: Name or service not known.

if I do this: 

$ wget -SO- -T 1 -t 1 http://myurl.com:15000/myhtml.html | egrep -i '302' <br/>

It doesnt return me the line that contains the string. I just want to check if the site or siteminder is up.

  1. The output of wget you are looking for is written on stderr. You must redirect it:

    $ wget -SO- -T 1 -t 1 http://myurl.com:15000/myhtml.html 2>&1 | egrep -i '302'
