Issue downloading a complete website for offline use with HTTrack
Some servers requests headers from the browser. To mimic this exact behaviour follow these steps:
- Press F12 on the browser and look for "Network" or "Net" tab
- Open the webpage you want to download
- Expand the first item on the list, that should be a GET request
- Check where it says "Headers". If you're using Firebug in Firefox, you may also click "view source"
- Copy all of the headers atarting on the line that reads "Host:" by painting them with the mouse and pressing CONTROL+C
- Go to HTTrack and click the "Set options" button of your current download (under the urls).
- Go to the "Browser ID" tab leave "Browser identity" empty, HTML footer "(none)" and on the "Additional HTTP headers" paste what you've copied on step #5
- You're all set.
