UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi,

For one of our requirements, we are using curl command from a Linux box to call the servlet using PEM certificates type. Once servlet is trigger, the data will be loaded through servlet. If the servlet thread is completed successfully, then the control should return to Unix and based on the process status, I need to do some operations.

The problem is if I can check the code as ${?}, then return code as 0 for successful servlet triggered without any waiting for the thread to complete. I need the flow to be synchronous.

Is there any way that I can check the status of thread or if the process is completed then only I will my next operations.

The command I am using is

Code:

curl --cert ./cert.pem:user --cacert ./cert.pem --insecure --cert.-type PEM "URL"

I need the status if the servlet thread is completed without any exception.
The $? value only returns if any error during servlet call..

Please help.
