RSS Feed Problem
Greetings, I recently upgraded my website using your latest zip download. I backed up my database, renamed my public_html to public_html1, then installed the new files using your auto-installer. I restored my database. Everything looks great, and I love the new look! You have a great product! My problem is I can't get the RSS feeds working. I bought all the modules originally (last March), so I uploaded the .pm files using ASCII, set the permissions to 755. When I go into the Extensions Manager, I try to "generate a RSS file" and I get the following error: The website cannot display the page HTTP 500 Most likely causes: The website is under maintenance. The website has a programming error. What you can try: Refresh the page. Go back to the previous page. More information I checked all my folder permissions, they are 755. I even changed everything to 777, still no luck. Also, the "RSS Feeder Manager" is grayed out, and says I need the "RSSMaker" module. I uploaded the RSSMaker.pm files, so I don't know why it is grayed out. Thanks for any help you can provide. Dean

Re: RSS Feed Problem

You need to upload the 2 files:

AutoRss.cgi       (set its permissions to 755)
RssMaker.pm

Also I tried to see your RSS feed here:

http://www.bid4critters.com/cgi-bin/auction/auction.cgi?action=Browse&Search=Category&Cat_ID=17&CatA_ID=0&Lang=English

and it seems not installed, you need to upload the file:

RssFeeder.pm

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I did already install those files under the cgi-bin/auction directory and set the permissions. It doesn't work. Also I do not have an RssFeeder.pm file. It did not come in my modules file from you. These are the files I received:

RSS Problem

Hi Ahmed, The new files seemed to work. I can click on the orange RSS button and it asks me if I want to subscribe - thanks!  One more question:  The blue "RSS" text above the orange button in the category page - what is that for?  When I click on it, I get a 404 error.
