Check URL using DOS script

Sorry, that's the best I can do. The problem is that your PC will have to access every URL and wait for the web site to finish loading it until you know if the picture exist or not.

Normally these kind of things are done with web crawler tools from a server but that's another issue and one I can't help you with.

Hey Dude,

Finally i was able to install the GetGnuwin32 and i did all the installation specified in the document. Now i could see the Wget exe and i tried to

D:\GnuWin32\GetGnuWin32\bin> wget.exe Error 404 (Not Found)!!1 ... 4530698365

I could see the result on the command prompt and i can see the image downloaded on the root folder. Now Could you please help me on reading the URL.txt has 200000 urls and need to output which URL has doesn't have image on output.txt.
then i tried to achieve the ecat output by below code,

Code:

@echo off
(for /f "usebackq delims=" %%a in ("url-list.txt") do (
    "D:\GnuWin32\GetGnuWin32\bin\wget.exe" --spider "%%a" || echo missing %%a
))>url.log
pause

i am good now. but seems to be this is not fastest way i am looking for as it takes plenty of time to output the result. please guide me with the fastest way to achieve this

use wget -S --spider

post results

Here's a very simple solution that will do it 10 times faster:

Split the file with URLs to 10 separate files and create 10 versions of the batch file that reads each URL file, and create 10 different output files. Then run all 10 simultaneously. When all have finished you add all output files into one single file.

Happy to hear it worked out for you :)
