There are several potential solutions to this issue:
Increase the timeout value: You can use the CURLOPT_TIMEOUT option in cURL to specify a longer timeout period. For example:
curlsetopt($ch, CURLOPTTIMEOUT, 30);
This sets the timeout to 30 seconds. You can try increasing this value to see if it resolves the issue.
Try a different User-Agent: Some websites may block requests from certain User-Agents, so you could try setting a different User-Agent in cURL. For example:
curlsetopt($ch, CURLOPTUSERAGENT, 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.36');
This sets the User-Agent to a Chrome browser on Windows. You can try using a different User-Agent to see if it helps.
Check for rate limiting: Some websites may limit the number of requests you can make within a certain time period. You can check if this is the case by adding a delay between requests using the sleep() function. For example:
sleep(1); //add a one second delay between requests
This will pause the script for one second before making the next request.
Use a proxy: Some websites may block requests from certain IP addresses, so you may need to use a proxy to make your requests. You can use the CURLOPT_PROXY option in cURL to specify a proxy server. For example:
curlsetopt($ch, CURLOPTPROXY, 'http://username:password@proxyserver.com:port');
This sets the proxy server to 'proxyserver.com' using the HTTP protocol and port number. You will need to replace 'username' and 'password' with your proxy credentials if required.
