Hi I am a new member,can any one help me


#!/bin/sh
# 'clear'
for i in $(seq -w 15 37)
do
#echo $i
string1= wget --dns-timeout=0.001 http://napdweb${i}.eao.abn-iad.ea.co.../test/test.jsp;
if [ "$string1" = "$Resolving napdweb${i}.eao.abn-iad.ea.com...failed connection timed out." ];
then
echo "May be napdweb${i}.eao.abn-iad.ea.com...has hung, please restart."
else
echo "Everything is good and fine"
fi
done
~


After the wget command is executed,i assigned that string to another string called string1. so in the next step when that string1 is equal to a particular string as i given in program, it should display a msg as server is down please restart otherwise else part should be displayed.I dont know why my logic is not running can any one solve it plssssssss

Hi! your variable is set incorrectly and your logic is a bit wrong. Try changing your script into this:

Hope that helps.

Hi,
to assign the output of wget to string1 You should use this insted:
or backticks ` `insted of $() will be fine too. But are You sure the returned string is the best way to determine failure/success? You will get several lines of output depending on what's gone wrong. Try using wgets return value instead, $?. A value of 0 is usually success, 1 or higher is failure.

I doubt if it will work with wget(assigning the output of wget to string1), at least with my box, I didn't get any output..

Or I am just missing something...
