A small RSS Aggregator situation

Post by arkanium »

Hi.

I'm a newbie who, a couple days ago, took Serendipity for a test drive. I did a fresh install and then installed the RSS Aggregator plugin. That's all. So far, I haven't been able to make it work.

The error log shows me the following:

Code: Select all

[31-mar-2008 21:34:03] PHP Warning:  Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/arkanium/public_html/test1/plugins/serendipity_event_entryproperties/serendipity_event_entryproperties.php on line 546

[31-mar-2008 21:40:54] PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  no_create in /home/arkanium/public_html/test1/serendipity_admin.php on line 235
But I'm not even sure if those errors are related to RSS Aggregator not pulling feeds. Any ideas? :?

Thanks.

Hi!

You don't need to worry about the undefined Indexes; this is not really a problem, but a message of PHP to inform you about it. In usual envoronments, PHP does not care about missing indexes (which is why a scripting language is easy to code with).

Anyhow. Which s9y version are you using? How did you setup the RSS Aggregator plugin, with which options and which kind of feeds?

Did you call your RSS Aggregator URL to make it fetch its data, like mentioned in the descipriotn of the plugin?

Version 1.3.

Well, I FTP'd the "serendipity_event_aggregator" folder into the plugins directory. Then I activated it via admin screen. Used Slashdot and phpBB feeds for testing.

Yes, via cron.

Thanks.

Sorry for being unprecise. What are your configuration settings for the plugin? Which URLs exactly did you use?

Yes, via cron.

Thanks.
Have you enabled the "debug" option of the aggregator plugin and captured the output you get from cron?
