    Do you use any filters?

    I can also confirm this with 85 collected proxies with GSA PS. I'm only running GSA PS as a future backup so the current low level is no concern for me. It isn't usually this low.
    Filters I run are -

    Since we're dealing with a resource that's free to everyone, this may be temporary
  • I have no filters at all (see attached) and only 74 proxies

    It ran for the last several days with one reboot at the middle

    OK you win :smile:
    For the rest of us, we aren't so lucky. I'm glad I reverted to using private proxies

    Hi Sven, no change with the new version.
    would sending you logs (if any) will help?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    OK send logs, but most likely they do not hold much information.
  • If you are really struggling I eliminated the problem by

    1. Backing up C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\GSA Proxy Scraper
    2. Cleanly Uninstalling GSA
    3. Clean any remnants remaining with a Free Uninstaller
    4. Reinstalling GSA

    The important files seem to be stored in the above directory

    Or you clear the cache in options->provider

    Hey Sven - Great suggestion
    Thanks
    I did try that, and it ignored so many providers when I tested it, under the Settings /  Automatic Search / Test Option, and I know the providers wernt Dead.
    I know you can change the Depth that GSA Scrapes, as per the Tutorial I created

    But it is ignoring sites for a certain time if they do not update there proxies in a longer time. It is not completely ignoring them.
    Thanked by 1Ritchievalens
