Hi Alex and others,
I would like to use lftp to automate reverse mirroring of web-albums
generated by http://booh.org/
So far I've come up with the following script to use with -f:
set net:max-retries 1
open <user-entry>
lcd /local/path/to/generated/album
mirror -R <album-basename>
("set net:max-retries 1" tries to workaround "useless" reconnects when
user entered an error in site name or credentials - but it would be
good to avoid retries on these problems yet benefit from data
transmission errors retries, though I haven't investigated that yet)
My problem is to handle the case when the opened URL has a mistake in
the path part. So far (with fish) I've seen something like:
cd: Access failed: /bin/sh: line 8: cd: /public_html: No such file or directory
and the script carries on, and would mirror at an improper remote
location I guess.
Is there any way to detect this kind of errors? I know lftp tries to
carry on as much as possible when facing non fatal errors, but in that
case it is just not what I'd like :/
Thanks for any help!
