Expensive,

I’m trying to hold a conference of records at CREA-RS website, but every time this giving the following error:

Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) : 
  Timeout was reached

Does anyone know what might be going on? R is connecting normal to the internet. Follow the code I’m trying to run:

b2 <- "http://apolo.crea-rs.org.br/apoloaplsrv01/servlet/org.crears.apolo.prod.hsel_profis_consulta_site?,0"
r <- POST(b2, encode = 'form', body = list("_PRF_NROCPF"  = 12345678910))
r post httr

  • Here ran normal... You made many queries? Did your IP was blocked?

  • It gave error already in the first one, and by the browser I can enter the site

  • Do you have any firewalls? Other webscrapping codes work there?

  • Yes, they work. readLines(b2) works also.

The httr package, for some reason, does not use the computer’s proxy configuration. To resolve, you need to load the package devtools and call the following function:

set_config(use_proxy(url="IP/URL DA PROXY", port=PORTA DA PROXY))
