Wish i understood all this malarky - can you explain that URL to the cronsphp file? Were the bolded bits relevant to said persons server/domain?

I'll chop it up for you:

/usr/local/bin/php -q

Basically the first part will allow you to run the php file.. This includes the destination of the php command and the execution of it.


/home/name/domains/domain/public_html/cronrss.php


The second part is the location of the cronrss.php file. The easiest way to specify the location is by going to your SMF forum and go to the following location:

Admin > Server Settings > Core Configuration > SMF Directory

The SMF Directory will be the path to your files and in particular you cronrss.php file.

Add these together and you have the command i used in my crontab

comesee

i do not have fake cron.. can someone please attach one for me to download.


here is my feedpostersql   please can you see any error in it.

Would it be advisable to contact my host to see if my set up is different?

I spoke to the host and the path was correct - all working - cheers Trip :)

I have installed the mod on my forum. Successfully, it says.

However, there is no link to the settings page in the admin menu. And when I go to
http://verben.texttheater.de/forum/index.php?action=feedsadmin ,
the start page of my forum is displayed.

I verified that fsockopen is enabled. What else can I do?

That means the mod did not install. Check permissions on all the files and folders that it writes to.

I always get XML error: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 10 and I don't know why. Can u help me.

Just posting here for a cry for help. I have messaged the author of the mod but I think he is busy.

Here is my issue:

The RSS Poster worked a couple of times, where the bot posted the news (although in unformatted HTML). In trying to get this issue fixed by disabling/enabling and uninstalling/reinstalling, the bot seems to no longer show feeds regardless of what I do.

Am I not completely uninstalling it? I really don't understand why this is not working now, when it worked earlier. Any help is good, thanks :)

Go back a few pages - say 46 onwards - i was having the same issue and its to do with Cronjobs on your server :)

Thanks, I applied the modifications manually and it works now.

Oddly though, a new topic is opened for every item. And only the latest item is posted, even if there are more new items around. Is that the expected behavior or is something malfunctioning?
