(Geez, a story with 850 chapters and 18 pages just of ToC...  I downloaded the first 5 chapters without issue.)
You can try: - Increasing slow_down_sleep_time: (default is 5 for novelfull.com)
- Only downloading a hundred or so chapters at a time using story URL with chapter range. Ie, https://novelfull.com/the-genius-sys...out-equal.html[1-100], then when that finishes, wait a while, then update by story URL with [101-200], etc.
- Set continue_on_chapter_error:true -- not necessary a good idea if you don't also do ranges, because FFF will continue trying for the next 600 chapters of failures if you give it the whole thing and it starts failing.
The advantage of continue_on_chapter_error:true is that FFF will keep all the chapters already downloaded. The downside is that continuing to try while failing may get you blocked longer.
Maybe I will investigate adding an intermediate setting that keeps chapters that have succeeded, but still stops on first failure.  |
This is what I have for my settings:
Default ini for FFF and this:
[novelfull.com]
use_flaresolverr_proxy:true
slow_down_sleep_time:7
## flaresolverr_proxy_timeout is in integer milliseconds.
## Keep flaresolverr_proxy_timeout set smaller than connect_timeout
## otherwise the connection *to* flaresolverr will timeout first.
flaresolverr_proxy_timeout:59000
If 5 is better, or 10 is better?
Thank you for looking into it. I very much appreciate the help as I really only read books from this site because most of the others that are similar don't work with FFF. I can certainly try to do that, as updates may be easier. I've actually wondered the same, as all 3 attempts that downloaded all stopped at different spots with the same error.
Ironically, the site itself has been acting weird even with updates, as I have books with over 3k chapters but FFF will say the site only has 1100 chapters available - yet the site shows otherwise.
Most likely, it is as you suspect and the site itself will probably become more unusable in this manner.
