Hi,
I installed klinkstatus to check links in a websites.
It works fine.
Now i want to create crob job(scheduled job) for checking a website by using klinkstatus in daily at specified time and creating its output in html format and that must be emailed..
how to do it?

Thanks

klinkstatus looks like a graphical application and (from a quick look on the website), doesn't seem
to have a useful command line interface that can be started regularly through cron.

A few other options, but I'm sure there are plenty:
W3's link checker:
http://www.w3.org/QA/Tools/
Wget, using --spider option

Hi timmeke,

You can configure in KLinkStatus automated checks; it can send mails with ouptut in html format like you requested.

Which version are you using?

We need KDE4 version of KLinkStatus; that version is too old I'm afraid.

Hi, my another system has klinkstatus 3 and i installed klinkstatus (4:4.3.2-1) through
GDebi package installer but it comes with
Error:Breaks existing package 'quanta' dependency klinkstatus (= 4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1)
why?

Ramakrishnan,

For reference, a ticket was created in launchpad: Question #93797

Ramakrishnan,

The problem is that there is no Quanta available for KDE4 and Quanta depends on the old version of KLinkStatus; therefore you should uninstall Quanta or ask for a better way to your distribution mantainers.
