Issue
I am currently trying to crawl a website (around 500 subpages).
The script is working quite smoothly. However, after 3 to 4 hours of running, I am sometimes getting the error message which you can find bellow. I think it is not the script which makes the problems, it is the website server which is quite slowly.
My question is: Is it somehow possible to send more than 3 "failed requests" before the script automatically stops/ closes the spider?

Solution
You can do this by simply changing the RETRY_TIMES
setting to a higher number.
You can read about your retry-related options in the RetryMiddleware
docs: https://docs.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/downloader-middleware.html#std:setting-RETRY_TIMES
