RSS/OPML feed error

[tuler]

I'm getting this:

Error on line 127 of /home/content/s/l/y/slybguy/html/serendipity/bundled-libs/Onyx/RSS.php: The specified file could not be opened

When I add the RSS/OPML feed side plugin to my blog at http://www.slybaldguys.com/serendipity/.

I'm trying to display the feed from the following url:

http://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.ph ... ;type=rss2

I know that this feed works because I display the same feed on my homepage using Carp.

Any ideas?

Hi!

Does the plugin generally work with other feeds? It might be related to a firewall on your webserver.

Is your blog on the same server than what you call "your homepage"?

I've tried several feeds and I get the same error with all feeds. My blog is on the same server as my homepage.

I host my site with a goDaddy affilliate if that helps.

Any other information that I can provide you?

Hi!

I don't know about your "Carpe" system, but did you setup a HTTP proxy to use there? Do you know which HTTP retrieval system Carpe uses? Does it use 'curl'? Because serendipity does not use curl because out of compatibility issues.

You might need to install the "Manual Trackback" (serendipity_event_trackback) plugin, this allows you to setup a HTTP Proxy that will be used for most HTTP Requests; I do think that GoDaddy is not allowing straight calls.

Ah, and if godaddy is still using Serendipity 0.8, that would be the problem. Only since version 0.9 serendipity no longer requires "allow_url_fopen" in the PHP config and uses the PEAR HTTP Request method.

I didn't have to setup an http retrieval system for Carp, but it may have done it during the install of the program. Carp is just php script that takes an rss feed and turns it into html.

I'll try this.

I did find that I'm running 0.8.2. Do I need to upgrade to 0.9 to use this?

Thanks for all of your help!

Oh. Then you definitely need to upgrade! 0.8.2 also contains a security problem. The best thing for you would be to upgrade to 1.0.1.
