Making two requests

[Hacxx Under]

Hi,

I'm trying to use curl command line to send two requests. One is a post and
the second is a get. The problem is that they do not work.

Only this seems to work.
curl.exe --get --insecure "http://www.example.com"

I have read the documentation on the site and the manual in curl command
line but the best i got was

curl -d score=10 http://example.com/post.cgi --next
http://example.com/results.html

But nothing happens ( the %temp%>1.txt) returns empty

Any help on this subject?

Thanks

I have tested

curl.exe -d "param1=value1&param2=value2" -X POST http://127.0.0.1:81/data

And nothing happens. Also the latested DOS version of curl, wget, etc
are corrupted. When opening with WinRAR the application starts
blinking and when double clicking nothing happen.

Thanks

Hello,

One is a post and the second is a get. The problem is that they do not work.
curl -d score=10 http://example.com/post.cgi <http://example.com/post.cgi> --next http://example.com/results.html <http://example.com/results.html>

Try turning the very helpful, verbose mode on, like:

curl -v -d score=10 http://example.com/post.cgi <http://example.com/post.cgi> --next http://example.com/results.html <http://example.com/results.html>

Two additional thoughts. You will need to:

1. add --get to the first request, and
2. specify the -d (data) with appropriate data in both requests.

Verbose mode output will help you debug and build the correct command.

Hi, Thanks for the reply.

Using the verbose mode (-v) doesn't change anything. The result was
and still is a empty line. No errors are visible - so - the query must
be correct nevertheless nothing show up in the server log.

I tested with the following line (removed <text> from your query
because "The syntax of the command is incorrect.")
curl -v -d score=10 http://example.com/post.cgi --next
http://example.com/results.html

Do you have more working query to test out?

Well then, it seems you have a problem. With -v, you should get a screen full of info that curl provides to tell about the request.

I tried:

curl -v http://www.google.com <http://www.google.com/> and got a bunch of lines (> 60) that ended with some html (in text) informing me that that page had been redirected to another.

If you are getting a blank line, something else might be failing.
