Jsoup SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

I get a SocketTimeoutException when I try to parse a lot of HTML documents using Jsoup.

For example, I got a list of links :

<a href="www.domain.com/url1.html">link1</a>
<a href="www.domain.com/url2.html">link2</a>
<a href="www.domain.com/url3.html">link3</a>
<a href="www.domain.com/url4.html">link4</a>

For each link, I parse the document linked to the URL (from the href attribute) to get other pieces of information in those pages.

So I can imagine that it takes lot of time, but how to shut off this exception Here is the whole stack trace:

java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

I think you can do

Jsoup.connect("...").timeout(10 * 1000).get(); 

which sets timeout to 10s.

Ok - so, I tried to offer this as an edit to MarcoS's answer, but the edit was rejected. Nevertheless, the following information may be useful to future visitors:

According to the javadocs, the default timeout for an org.jsoup.Connection is 30 seconds.

As has already been mentioned, this can be set using timeout(int millis)

Also, as the OP notes in the edit, this can also be set using timeout(0). However, as the javadocs state:

> A timeout of zero is treated as an infinite timeout.

I had the same error:

java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
	at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method)
	at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead(SocketInputStream.java:116)
	at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:171)
	at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:141)

and only setting .userAgent(Opera) worked for me.

So I used Connection userAgent(String userAgent) method of Connection class to set Jsoup user agent.

Something like:

Jsoup.connect("link").userAgent("Opera").get();

There is mistake on https://jsoup.org/apidocs/org/jsoup/Connection.html. Default timeout is not 30 seconds. It is 3 seconds. Just look at javadoc in codes. It says 3000 ms.

This should work: Jsoup.connect(url.toLowerCase()).timeout(0);.

Set timeout while connecting from jsoup.
