Anyone got John Alldred's LinkCheck application to work? Despite
making changes to the !Choices file and increasing the WimpSlot (now
1024k) I get an error Subscript out of range 0 0 [15@9720]. I have a
website with a good number of directories and html files.
Are there any other reliable 32-bit link checking utilities I could
use?

However, it's shareware with a ukp10 registration fee, and I don't
know how you get it registered now. Andrew Conroy at CJE now looks
after Paul's software, so perhaps he knows how to do this.
BTW I think LinkCheck works with Aemulor, but I haven't used it for
years.
With best wishes,
Peter.

You could always make a temporary copy of, say, half of your website and
check that, then check a copy of the other half.

How can you know the line count of the source without having the source?

Subscript errors probably are simple to find & fix though.

isolation (ie you'd be checking external links) but I suppose that's not the
case? You're also checking links within the site?

limits requests to other servers to no faster than 1 per second, it may well
take quite a while. I can't quite see how your internet connection speed
would matter, as the check code is running on a w3c server and presumably it
fetches pages directly from the site under test.
One can also download and run it oneself, but that requires one's system to
be able to run Perl.

How many files do you estimate you need to process? Try that.
Have you tried increasing memory to the maximum your machine will take?

To add...
I have just tried it here with my 'small' website.
I increased max1 and max2 to 1000, and WimpSlot to 5M.
There were actually 501 files for max1, and 834 for max2, and it used
well over 4M of the slot. But it seemed to read it all, at least.

It deliberately pauses between each check so as to work on slow sites.
