here is my Python code which I'm using to extract the Specific HTML from the Page links I'm sending as parameter. I'm using BeautifulSoup. This code works fine for sometimes and sometimes it is getting stuck!
import urllib
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
rawHtml = ''
url = r'http://iasexamportal.com/civilservices/tag/voice-notes?page='
for i in range(1, 49):
#iterate url and capture content
sock = urllib.urlopen(url+ str(i))
html = sock.read()
sock.close()
rawHtml += html
print i
Here I'm printing the loop variable to find out where it is getting stuck. It shows me that it's getting stuck randomly at any of the loop sequence.
soup = BeautifulSoup(rawHtml, 'html.parser')
t=''
for link in soup.find_all('a'):
t += str(link.get('href')) + "</br>"
#t += str(link) + "</br>"
f = open("Link.txt", 'w+')
f.write(t)
f.close()
what could be the possible issue. Is it the problem with the socket configuration or some other issue.
This is the error I got. I checked these links - python-gaierror-errno-11004,ioerror-errno-socket-error-errno-11004-getaddrinfo-failed for the solution. But I didn't find it much helpful.

It's running perfectly fine when I'm running it on my personal laptop. But It's giving error when I'm running it on Office Desktop. Also, My version of Python is 2.7. Hope these information will help.
