rss feed query
|
Can't Post
|
|
I've followed the instructions in the Listings Manager tutorial to try and get an rss feed working. The feed seems to be updating and it validates OK so I must have done something right. However, when I run http://www.mellowneedlecrafts.co.uk/cgi-bin/products/exec/publishcron.cgi?page=1 in my browser nothing happens. Am I doing something daft?
Contents of publishcron.ini
#--------Search URL - replace with the full URL to your Article Manager search engine)
search_url = http://www.mellowneedlecrafts.co.uk/cgi-bin/products/exec/search.cgi
#--------Search Queries
page1 = /home/mellowneeduk/public_html/cgi-bin/products/listings/rss.xml
query1 = search=1&perpage=30&template=rss_template.xml
#--------Uncomment (remove the starting #) from these queries to add additional queries.
#page2 =
#query2 =
#page3 =
#query3 =
publishcron.cgi and publishcron.ini are in the following directory:
http://www.mellowneedlecrafts.co.uk/cgi-bin/products/exec/
publishcron.cgi = chmod 755
publishcron.ini = chmod 766
The listings directory is located at:
http://www.mellowneedlecrafts.co.uk/cgi-bin/products/listings
The rss.xml file is also in the listings directory. The rss_template.xml file is in the templates/_generic directory.
In the Listings Manager setup the program path is:
/home/mellowneeduk/public_html/cgi-bin/products/exec
Did I put the correct path into the publishcron.ini file or have I made an error somewhere else?

Hi Annie,
Thanks for your post. I took a look at the link to your Publishcron, and it appears to be working as expected -- are you still having trouble? I was able to see your RSS feed here:
http://www.mellowneedlecrafts.co.uk/cgi-bin/products/listings/rss.xml
...so it looks like it's working as expected. Let me know if you're still having trouble. :)

Hi Annie,
Can you let me know what browser you use when you view that? When I go to the page, I am seeing the RSS output. Do you see anything on the page, or is it totally blank?

Hi Donna,
I was using Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows XP and the page wouldn't change - nothing would happen at all. However, I also have Firefox so I tried with that and the following appeared. Is this what I should be seeing?

Hi Annie.
Thanks for the update!
That’s definitely what you should be seeing, so it looks like things are working nicely in FireFox. I am not actually quite sure why it isn’t showing up properly in IE though but I am also getting the same thing happening here so I would need to have a closer look.
Would you mind sending me a support request with some FTP details so I can get in there and do some testing?

I look forward to hearing from you  .
