Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Curl/http 503 error with bash script Post 303008602 by kieranfoley on Monday 4th of December 2017 07:23:28 AM

Hi RudiC,

I'm not sure what you mean? The LINK variable is defined from this line in the script.

Code:
LINK=`cat $TEMP_DIR/test_xml.out | grep link | sed 's/<link>//g;s/<\/link>//g'| awk '{sub(/^[ \t]+/, ""); print}'`

Once the script finishes running (albeit with the 503 service available error) I am able to define the LINK variable from the command line and run the curl GET using $LINK or using the variables contents - either way it works when I run it outside of the script.

If I echo the $LINK variable within the script to get it's contents it is what I expect it to be.
