Nagios Support Forum

Hi Support,

I want to crawling into the websites and find the broken links. Is that possible in Nagios?

Thanks in advance
Vijay.

You could write a script that did this but I don't think there are any existing plugins that do it.

Thank you very much jsmurphy for your quick reply

Yeah, in theory what you'd have to do is:
- use curl to grab the page content
- use a regular expression match to pull all of the links into some sort of list or array
- loop through the list of links and make a curl request for each link found on the page, check the http error code returned by curl.
