When I use HTTrack, nothing is mirrored (no files) Whats happening?

First, be sure that the URL typed is correct. Then, check if you need to use a proxy server (see proxy options in WinHTTrack or the -P proxy:port option in the command line program). The site you want to mirror may only accept certain browsers. You can change your “browser identity” with the Browser ID option in the OPTION box. Finally, you can have a look at the hts-log.txt (and hts-err.txt) file to see what happened. Q: There are missing files! What’s happening? A: You may want to capture files that exist in a different folder, or in another web site. You may also want to capture files that are forbidden by default by the robots.txt website rules. In these cases, HTTrack does not capture these links automatically, you have to tell it to do so. • Either use the filters. Example: You are downloading http://www.someweb.com/foo/ and can not get .jpg images located in http://www.someweb.com/bar/ (for example, http://www.someweb.com/bar/blue.jpg) Then, add the filter rule +www.someweb.com/
