Yes, the purpose is to populate the cache. I works fine for us. Any correct link that returns a 200 will cause vBGT to get populate the cache. We use wget, as described and it works great for you.

I am not following your problem.

If it is not working, you need to post examples from your input and output file, as requested. Otherwise, how would we know if your input file to wget is correct?

Here it is:

detest2.txt

wget -b -O /dev/null -i detest2.txt -o links.txt

links.txt
For some reason it seems to save to /dev/null right now - I am calling wget from "httpdocs" = forum root

just wget http://www.myforum.org/showthread.ph...=2&language=ja

gives:

Here is another example:

If I click a link I can see vbenterprisetranslator_cache_xyz table increases - when I run wget the table dosent increase. wget simply has no effect on the cache in my end.

If I want to manully empty the cache at some point. Then I can simply "empty cache" in phpmyadmin for the 3 vbenterprisetranslator_cache tables?

Thanks.

It works for us, not sure why it does not work for you.

Anyway, if you get it to work for you, please post back your working wget code. Thanks for posting.

Cheers.

I will, surely would be easier that way.

Hey KrisP,

You can always test it by sending the output to a file (or the screen) versus sending the output to /dev/null.

Pulling with wget is not any different than pulling with a browsers, etc, as you know well, so you can check it easily by sending the output to a file or the screen.

Hey KrisP,

Try this and see if it works for you...

wget -b -i detest2.txt -o links.txt

or

wget -i detest2.txt -o links.txt

Hello Again KrisP,

I just tested it with

wget -b -O testfile.txt -i detest2.txt -o links.txt

and it works fine....

I could see the translations in the testfile.txt

All was OK.

Piping the output to /dev/null does not stop wget from pulling the file and vBGT from translating it....

Cheers.

Yes writing to a file then the cache get filled! Problem is that this takes 20 times longer than downloading with "Website downloader for windows".

Unfortunately I started a large file with wget - it could take days.

Do you know how I could terminate a running wget job?

EDIT: Seems kill "pid nr" did the job.

Sorry, but that is ridiculous.....

Obviously, if you don't know how to kill a running process on unix/linux you don't have enough experience to actually know what you are talking about regarding performance.

There is no reason that wget runs longer than something else (especially a windoze platform), unless you have a configuration problem or are running on different platforms , different networks, etc, etc.

You are posting misinformation base on your lack of knowledge and experience, obvious by asking how to kill a running process.
