I've had very disapointing results with the new link checker. I'm going to modify it to go back and use the regular old LWP or IO::Socket.

I'll hopefully post an updated version this weekend.

Cheers,

Alex

i'm using links1.1 and i'm getting error 500 for all the links. will i be able to use the updated version?

Alex,

Can you update us on the current status of this project? Thanks.

Bob

The fixe mentioned in one of the thread (changing $@ to 1 in line 69 of nph-verify.cgi DID work for me. The script does not report what it does untill it is done which takes a few minutes....

If you replace

sub verify_links {
# -----------------------------------------------------
by

sub verify_links {
# -----------------------------------------------------
$| = 1;

then the output will be immediately flushed in nph-verify.cgi.

Best regards,

Rainer
