There could be several reasons why downloading from a URL link using Playwright with headless mode enabled is failing, including:
The URL is incorrect or inaccessible: If the URL is incorrect or the resource is no longer available, then the script will fail to download the resource.
Firewall or network restrictions: Sometimes, a network or firewall may block certain downloads, which can cause the script to fail.
Incorrect download path or lack of permissions: If the script is unable to write to the specified download location, then the download will fail. This could be due to incorrect or insufficient permissions on the folder.
Browser-specific limitations: Some browsers may have limitations on downloading certain types of files or from certain URLs.
To troubleshoot the issue, you can try the following:
Verify that the URL is correct and accessible.
Check if any network or firewall restrictions are in place.
Ensure that the download path is correct and that sufficient permissions are granted to the folder.
Test with different browsers to see if the issue is specific to one browser.
Try running the script with headless mode disabled to see if the issue persists.
