findstr /r /i /c:"h ttp://234.56.78:[0-9]*/live/osidosi_[0-9]*" log_prof_info_809809808.txt>extractedline.txt

worked fine for me - no need for the FOR and note that > above will creata a new output file containing the one line. This should be changed to >> if you want to append to any existing content.

Try this line:

for /f "delims=" %%A in (' findstr "h ttp:\/\/234.56.78:[0-9]\/live\/osidosi_[0-9]" "log_prof_info_809809808.txt" ') do >>extractedline.txt ECHO %%A

for /? says:

FOR /F ["Options"] %variable IN ('command') DO command[Parameter]

Note the single quotues '.

put the command in single quotes instead of double quotes. And: you forgot the * after [0-9] two times (repetition of previous char)

for /f "tokens=*" %%A in ('findstr "h ttp://234.56.78:[0-9]*/live/osidosi_[0-9]*" log_prof_info_809809808.txt') do ECHO %%A>>extractedline.txt

(there is a space in h ttp - I assume, you are aware of that)
