Hi,

 

I use

a polygon > boundsExtractor > OSMDownloader

 

but i get error

 

OSMDownloader_HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): HTTP/FTP transfer error: 'Couldn't resolve host name'

OSMDownloader_HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): Please ensure that your network connection is properly set up

OSMDownloader_HTTPCaller (HTTPFactory): No proxy settings have been entered. If you require a proxy to access external URLs, please ensure the appropriate information has been entered.
