Python: requests.exceptions.ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool

Question

I am trying to monitor some application URL via below code but it's giving me error. Please suggest what is the issue in here?

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import requests
import os

f = open("sites.txt", 'r')
dns = f.readlines()
for obj in dns:
#    try:
        url = "https://" + obj
        print(obj)
        response = requests.get(url, verify=False, timeout=5)
        if response.status_code != 200:
            print("Site not rechable", url)

[user@server]$ cat sites.txt
www.google.com
web1.com

result:

[user@server]$ python3 monitor.py
www.google.com

I can confirm that google is reachable from the server and I am able to get the curl result.

Simply, the second website is dead https://web1.com/, so requests is throwing an exception. You need to intercept it: You need to check it:

import requests
dns = ['www.google.com', 'web1.com']
for obj in dns:
        url = "https://" + obj
        try:
            response = requests.get(url, verify=False, timeout=5)
        except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
            print("Site not rechable", url)
