playwright is timing out before running page.pause()

Question

everything was running fine the code opened a website and carried out some functions

i took a 60 min break and now playwright refuses to do even the most basic function

it loads the website and times out i wrote a new code to test what was wrong and even that failed

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
import time
with sync_playwright() as p:
    brower = p.chromium.launch(headless=False, slow_mo=50)
    page = brower.new_page()
    page.goto('https://www.zameen.com/')
    page.pause()

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "e:\playwrightzameen.py", line 6, in <module>
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  File "E:\pyton\Lib\site-packages\playwright\_impl\_connection.py", line 419, in wrap_api_call

i tried to uninstall and reinstall playwright

Often this happens when the site is blocking your bot. You might try waiting until domcontentloaded to speed it up. — ggorlen, Dec 09 '22 at 18:24

That happens because your webpage did not load totally, you can set a timeout like:

page.goto('https://www.zameen.com/', timeout=100000)

Or you can even don't wait till your page is loaded and just navigate without waiting the page to be fully loaded with timeout=0

page.goto('https://www.zameen.com/', timeout=0)
