Curl statement throwing extra statements

Hi all,

I am running a curl statement in my script to extract some information form a remote server.

My curl statement is :

Code:
curl --socks5 142.133.134.164:1082 'http://11.229.52.71:8011/WebApp/common/version'

This gives me an output of :


Code:
[root@Redhat6664x scripts]$ curl --socks5 142.133.134.164:1082 'http://11.229.52.71:8011/WebApp/common/version'
<html><head><title>Version Rev-632_20151524</title></head><body><pre>
VERSION=Rev-632_20151119142524
PRODUCT=My
BUILD_VERSION=Rev
      SRC_TAG=R2.3.0.48
      GIT_TAG=ce8bc092f184b11cae797e41165a0553c5b53f45
     JOB_NAME=C_DEV
 BUILD_NUMBER=632
   BUILD_DATE=Thu Nov 19 14:28:54 2015
</pre></body></html>
      VERSION=R2.3.0-48.1
BUILD_VERSION=R2.3.0
BUILD_RELEASE=48.1

I am trying to extract only some data like the lines that have VERSION in them but when I do that using grep , I see some extra lines coming in :

Code:
[root@Redhat6664x scripts]$ curl --socks5 142.133.134.164:1082 'http://11.229.52.71:8011/WebApp/common/version' | grep VERSION
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
105  1261  105  1261    0     0   8402      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 12362
VERSION=Rev-632_20151119142524
BUILD_VERSION=Rev
VERSION=R2.3.0-48.1

There is this extra text coming in:

Code:
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
105  1261  105  1261    0     0   8402      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 12362

How can I get rid of this in the curl statement ?

Please show us the output from the commands:
Code:
curl --socks5 142.133.134.164:1082 'http://11.229.52.71:8011/WebApp/common/version' 2>curl.2out | grep VERSION > curl_grep.1out
ls -l curl_grep.1out curl.2out
cat curl.2out

Try the silent flag:
Code:
-s/--silent
    Silent or quiet mode. Don't show progress meter or error messages. Makes Curl mute.
