Timeout in options of website contact

hi @Sven

can you increase timeout from 120 seconds to 200 or so as recaptcha solving is taking roughly around 150 to 200 seconds

so that FORMS  can be submitted to sites using recaptcha

    That timeout is for bits seen from a server. If a server didn't give any reply for 2 minutes, its dead! A captcha service however is having a URL you call to check for the status. It either gives back the result or a "wait, not ready" kind of message. So this will not have any impact to increase it to 200.

    ok

    If it is dead than Does it mean that submission after 120 seconds is not possible whether captcha is solved or not ?

    so this will apply to gsa ser timeout too ?

    All those 120+ recaptcha solves are probably being dead before it is solved.

    See it works like this:
    1. captcha is send to the service
    2. an ID is replied that is used in the next step to check for the status
    3. another request is done with that ID as parameter to check if the captcha is already solved
    3a. If it is not, it tries again in like 10 seconds
    3b. If it is, it does no longer send any packets to the service and continues with the submission
    In no way it is ever hitting that 120 sec limit for a pure download of data.

    (120 sec is just for download of html form, data and not including the solving of recaptcha, submission ?)


    if captcha solving is taking 190 seconds between step 1 and 3b , it is already past 120 seconds.

    SO will the submission take place or aborted ?

    you can overwrite the timeout of captcha services in their options.

    ok

    but can you tell me

    3b. If it is, it does no longer send any packets to the service and continues with the submission

    Again, this timeout has nothing to do with this solving!
