Web Connector Issue

I'm trying to connect to this Web (www.carrefouregypt.com) to scrape data in 'Anonymous' mode

I got a 'time out error' so I put time out after 100 min in 'advanced' way. 

but also I got a message tells me "The remote name could not be resolved: 'www.carrefouregypt.com'" 

 

Can u help me with this, please?

Hi @AhmedHisham 

Can you provide a screenshot of the page when you connect to the web ? It seems that there is something wrong with your URL format.

The normal URL should be in this format : http://www.xxxxxxxxx.com
