Does File/Folder Exist....Web

Postby mikKummerfeld » Fri Dec 14, 2012 1:56 pm

Hello Guys,

I developed a new setup and update downloader for all of our 20 products and every version.

how can I check whether the setup files or zips are available on our webserver.

Code: Select all

does file/folder exist http://www.domain.de/setups/$produkt$/files/$downloadversion$/MikBisWinWeb_$downloadversion$_$setupname$.$setupformat$


does not work. How can I check that ?

Any Idea? Files are up to 300MB large so no way to download first and check
Kind regards

Deir Heiko,

the command can't be used over an URL.

By the way, the only possible suggestion that comes to my mind, it is use a separate file to keep track of the available file list.
Doing this, you could first download this files and if the file to download is listed with it, then effectively download the file.

Regards.
