WebCopy / Trying to Copy a Website with ...
Last post by Ulurat90 - September 30, 2024, 12:52:09 PM
Hi there,

i try to copy a Forum. The Forum is 20 Years old an has a lot of data. At least und runned 4,5 days and it was not even at 50%.

So i need the posts an the attachments. The attachments are just visible when you are logged in. So i added my login in data with the link to the login prompt as a form.

So when i run the index.html the site looks like i am not logged in. And i dont get all the attachments i need.

Can you help me? Thank you!

WebCopy / I believe content is downloade...
Last post by Shplad - September 03, 2024, 05:48:05 PM
Hi:

I'm fairly technical but have zero knowledge of web technology.

I've run copy operations on a website I want to download. It takes several hours to download, and the folders are full of files. However, when I double click on the first file in the folder, it shows me an unformatted page with the links on the site I had wanted to copy. However, if I click on any of those links, it simply takes my browser to the actual site on the Internet, instead of displaying local content.

What am I doing wrong?

How curious. WebCopy does download to temporary files and then renames when downloaded, but they should be in the appropriate destination folder not temp.

Firstly, what version of WebCopy are you using.

Secondly, did you save the project and if so are you able to share it for me to investigate. You can send the file via PM if you do not wish to make it public.

Alternatively, if you're able to reproduce with a distilled sample, please provide details.

Regards;

Why some images, for eg.: https://img.7zap.com/images/oem/vag3/groups/3.png are downloaded and saved but renamed and stored in TEMP folder ?

https://img.7zap.com/images/oem/vag3/groups/3.png -> C:\Users\USER_PROFILE\AppData\Local\Temp\br3clmdl.hsh

WebCopy / Re: Need to control timeout fo...
Last post by Richard Moss - August 18, 2024, 08:00:09 AM
Hello,

The default timeout is 10 seconds but WebCopy currently doesn't expose this as a configuration setting. I've added issue #516 to expose the setting and it will be in the next nightly update.

Retrying to failed downloads is currently slated for 1.11 (#206). That was intended to be an automatic feature, but I've added a note to the issue regarding the possibility of manually triggering a retry.

PS: I don't have a huge amount of time for support requests unless they relate to genuine bugs or feasible feature enhancements. The software is free, so for the most part you're on your own.

Hi!
Any reaction to post? Any updates? Is this forum for serious discussion or just for throwing dust in the eyes?

Update from my side: tested with latest night build (cyowcopy-1.10.0.898-x64-nightly) - problem is still exists. For one test site with low speed ALL files targeted for crawling (jpg pictures) is get "The operation has timed out" and files wasn't downloaded.

Developers, have you plans to fix it?

Thanks

WebCopy / Failed to load image resource ...
Last post by Steve_Gibson - July 03, 2024, 07:35:58 PM
I have long been a huge fan and promoter of WebCopy. I have a long-running (19 years) popular podcast ("Security Now!") where I've several times promoted and strongly recommended WebCopy. It has never given me any trouble... until today.

Today, upon startup, the opening splash screen came up and stalled. Finally, after quite a pause, the following series of five "Failed to load image resource" errors were presented in succession:


Since I hadn't run WebCopy for a while I figured I'd download the latest and greatest. This jumped me from a 2021 release to 2023. But... no change.

The only thing funky about my world may be that this machine I'm using is still Win7... but WebCopy states that it's still compatible with Win7, and the last time I used it I had no problems.

Note that I searched high and low on this site for any way to create a "ticket" or just to let Richard know about this little glitch. Also... after dismissing the five error messages, WebCopy ran and performed flawlessly.

So... just a heads-up, Richard.  Thanks for the terrific world-class solution.  I've sent money a few times, including again today, since I would LOVE to have you keep this alive, though it's already excellent!
