Okay, now this is strange--I tried using your .site and .html files without
any modificaiton except for changing the local filenames and paths. I
didn't save the error output, but I kept getting an error message which
said that the login could not be executed because something was waiting for
the queue to empty, and then amessage that said I was being redirected by
META to a login page.
After trying that a few times, Sitescooper begain to note that the
locally-stored page on my PC was not changing, and I could not get it to go
past that page, either by using the -refresh switch or by deleting cache
files from my PC manually. Here's the error message I got there:
C:\sitescooper>perl sitescooper.pl -site new_york_times.site -doc
Reading configuration from "C:\sitescooper\sitescooper.cf".
Using site choices from "C:\sitescooper\tmp\site_choices.txt".
Restricting to sites: new_york_times.site
SITE START: now scooping site "new_york_times.site".
Reading level-3 front page: file://c:/sitescooper/new_york_times.site
2002-Jan-04: New York Times: no new stories, ignoring.
SITE END: done scooping site "new_york_times.site".
Finished!
