Hi
it seems like I can crawl my domain from another server with no problems, I am thinking that the php version and the settings you are using for your dev is important, please advise these as I think this help
thanks in advance

Hi,

that's weird  - since it crawls other domains succesffully, this is unlikely related to php settings (we tested the script in various environments and default settings should always work fine). Looking at the debug output, the script can't even connect to a host, perhaps this is a hosting configuration issue. I'm not sure why this restriction might be applied, but if you had a chance to ask the hosting support, that would be great. Please let us know!

I'm getting the same error as stated above... Funny thing is, the online version of your script works perfectly... No clue on why mine won't work, do i need some weird php setting enabled?

Hi,

could you please try to contact your hosting support with the question if there are some restrictions in connecting to the host the script is running on?

Hello,

this is related to a firewall installed at your server, you should make sure it is configured to allow local network connections via port 80 (http) for php scripts.

On the configuration settings I removed the trailing \ from the website URL (that was pre-populated). This fixed this problem for me.
