I tried Linbot 1.0 and generally think it's great. The problem I had with it was that it would ONLY check remote sites but not my zope test machine http://localhost for whatever reason. Only the root url was displayed in the report. I tried pylice which is also written in python but it also refused to scan my localhost. Then I tried to scan from an external machine - same thing! The same content server as static pages from apache: works. Could that be a zope issue?
I too have had this problem. And it also happens with some of the other (perl based) link checkers.
Try instead pointing it at the FQDN for your machine instead of localhost. Why? Most likely because gethostbyname() doesn't resolve for localhost. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw@kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder@kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=--
