RSS feed / scheduled task not updating - Date set as last update at 8th Aug
Hey,
I don't know why but my RSS feeds aren't updating, I tried to add a few new feeds but they aren't retrieving at all, there is no last date set when I run manually and in the log, the last update it is showing is from 8th Aug (4 days) ago. But when I run the scheduled task manually, it is loading a few other feeds I had setup previously and also getting the feed without any problems.. Not sure what is going wrong. The last checked for the feed is staying at "-" - So the feed isn't being checked, even when run manually.. Thanks |
I have the same problem.
On another forum I have it pulls in the rss feeds fine |
Same with me...Tried it on my other site with the same feed and its working no problem...
|
Do you run 4.2.0?
|
No, I am running 3.8
Read threads from people having the same problem for a few years now but there hasn't been a fix... |
Anything in your error_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host)? Are your other Scheduled Tasks running?
|
Nothing in my error logs Lynne and the other scheduled tasks are running, including RSS feeds - I added a few others that I know are working, and updating, but they aren't working with vB..
Thanks Lynne :) |
So when you run the task manually from the adminCP, do you see any messages?
Do you have anything entered in "Search Items for Words"? And I guess you've tried copying the url to your browser to see if it's working? Maybe try creating a new feed with the same url and post it to a junk thread somewhere, and see if that one works. |

Hmm...OK, well, you could try removing one of the ones that's not working and recreate it. If you do that, you might get duplicates (if they were ever working at all, that is), but it could fix the problem.
|
None are working since I made my first thread, I have tried to add others that I know are working, but they aren't running at all.
Previous feeds that I added are still working right now...I have added around 7 feeds now that aren't updating or even being checked, but they are working fine on a test forum, just not on my live forum... The last date checked is just showing "-" and they aren't showing any posts at all. |
Are you sure the script isn't timing out? It really sounds like the script isn't getting around to some of the feeds.
|
Hey Lynne,
The script is running no problem and also displays the page after running - Showing if any posts have been made or not. Do you know what order vBulletin runs the feeds? In the order they were created, name or....? Thanks again Lynne! |
The script that runs when you click to run it manually is different than what runs when it runs via the Scheduled Tasks.
I honestly do not know what order it goes in. This is a query which doesn't have an order: PHP Code:
|
I don't know why the new feeds aren't working...
I added a few general, daily updated feeds just to check it, they aren't being checked / updated at all either, so something is definitely wrong.. The feeds are working in general, but no recently added feeds are working, the older feeds are still working and adding the posts. |
The "last checked" doesn't get updated unless it runs successfully and finds at least one item. But that doesn't help a lot, it could fail to connect, fail to get the xml, have an xml error, find no new items, or not find any matching search terms (which shouldn't apply to you since you said you have none). It's difficult to debug it "blind" - when you run it from the admincp some of those errors will print a message, but I'm not sure all of them do.
Hate to ask this, but are you sure you selected "Yes" next to "Feed is Enabled"? If you wanted to dump you rssfeed db table and attach it to a post, I could see what happens when I try it on my test forum. |

I'm not getting any errors at all when running. I will get a dump of the table now and attach it :) Thanks for helping :) |
How about posting the links to some of the feeds that aren't working? Are you sure they actually have recent stuff to post in your forums?
