feeds don't work anymore

posts: 1

i've upgraded from version 5 to 7.
I get no answers from tiki-blogs_rss.php and tiki-blog_rss.php?blogId=2.
Before upgrading all works well.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Markus

I had this problem with first install of Tiki 7 on a Fedora 13 system.
I found this tracker entry: http://dev.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker_item.php?itemId=3454
I installed php-xml, and it fixed the problem.
Good luck,
Tom


I use a hosting company for my site.
Also since updating from 5 to 7 my RSS feeds have stopped working.
If php-xml needs to be installed I can't do it.
Is there anyway within tikiwiki to check if it is installed?

I had hoped that using tikiwiki would not require anything more than a standard hosting package. Is this RSS feed a bug or is more software required to be installed by my web host?
Or is it something else?

Thanks

Sorry, I am not an expert on php-xml, and I do not know for certain if this is your problem. My main sites cannot upgrade to Tiki 7 because I don't have PHP 5.2 installed.

I installed PHP 5.2 on my home server and installed Tiki 7 there, and I found that the RSS did not work. If you read the "workaround" and comments on the tracker I linked to, you will know as much about php-xml as I do.

On my Fedora 13 home server I issued "yum install php-xml" and it installed without problems. Then I issued "service restart httpd" and after that RSS was working.

I had an earlier version of Tiki installed on my home server before, but I don't remember if I tried using RSS with it. I loaded one of my production Tiki 6.1 sites into Tiki 7 on my home server to see what the differences with Tiki 7 would be. That site used RSS on the home page, which made the problem stand out, and why I searched for a fix.

I don't think you will be able to install php-xml, unless you have a dedicated server. Contact your host and ask them if they could install php-xml for you, or have them check that it is installed. It shouldn't be a problem for them.

In the hope that someone might find this thread and will answer this question. I have php-xml installed but still get RSS feed errors.
Are there any known RSS Feed problems. I have updated to Version 7.1 RC1 in the hopes that the problem might be fixed but no luck.
Can anyone confirm or deny RSS Feed issues in version 7
