  28  *************************************************************************
  29  1.    Fatal error: Failed opening required '/path/to/script/rss_fetch.inc' 
  30      (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php/pear') 
  31      
  32      This could mean that:
  33      
  34      a) PHP can't find the MagpieRSS files.
  35      b) PHP found them the MagpieRSS files, but can't read them.
  36      
  37      a. Telling PHP where to look for MagpieRSS file.
  38      
  39      This might mean your PHP program can't find the MagpieRSS libraries. 
  40      Magpie relies on 4 include files, rss_fetch.inc, rss_parse.inc,
  41      rss_cache.inc, rss_util.inc, and for normal use you'll need all 4 (see the
  42      cookbook for exceptions).
  43  
  44      This can be fixed by making sure the MagpieRSS files are in your include
  45      path.
  46      
  47      If you can edit your include path (for example your on a shared host) then
  48      you need to replace:
  49      
  50      require_once ('rss_fetch.inc');
  51          
  52      -with-
  53          
  54      define('MAGPIE_DIR', '/path/to/magpierss/');
  55      require_once (MAGPIE_DIR.'rss_fetch.inc');
  56  
  57      b.  PHP can't read the MagpieRSS files
  58      
  59      All PHP libraries need to be readable by your webserver.
  60      
  61      On Unix you can accomplish this with:
  62      
  63      chmod 755 rss_fetch.inc rss_parse.inc rss_cache.inc rss_util.inc
  64      
  65  *************************************************************************
  66  2. Cache couldn't make dir './cache'.
  67  
  68      MagpieRSS caches the results of fetched and parsed RSS to reduce the load on
  69      both your server, and the remote server providing the RSS.  It does this by
  70      writing files to a cache directory.
  71  
  72      This error means the webserver doesn't have write access to the current
  73      directory.
  74      
  75      a. Make a webserver writeable cache directory
  76      
  77      Find the webserver's group. (on my system it is 'www')
  78      
  79      mkdir ./cache
  80      chgrp www directory_name
  81      chmod g+w directory_name
  82      
  83      (this is the best, and desired solution)
  84      
  85      b. Tell MagpieRSS to create the cache directory somewhere the webserver can
  86      write to.
  87      
  88      define('MAGPIE_CACHE_DIR', '/tmp/magpierss');
  89  
  90      (this is not a great solution, and might have security considerations)
  91          
  92      c. Turn off cacheing.  
  93      
  94      Magpie can work fine with cacheing, but it will be slower, and you might
  95      become a nuiance to the RSS provider, but it is an option.
  96      
  97      define('MAGPIE_CACHE_ON', 0);
  98      
  99      d. And lastly, do NOT
 100      
 101      chmod 777 ./cache
 102      
 103      Any of the above solutions are better then this.
 104  
 105      NOTE: If none of this works for you, let me know.  I've got root, and a
 106      custom compiled Apache on almost any box I ever touch, so I can be a little
 107      out of touch with reality.  But I won't know that if I don't feedback.

 110  3.    Fatal error: Failed to load PHP's XML Extension.

 112  
 113      -or-
 114      
 115      Fatal error: Failed to create an instance of PHP's XML parser.

 117      
 118      Make sure your PHP was built with --with-xml
 119      
 120      This has been turned on by default for several versions of PHP, but it might
 121      be turned off in your build.
 122      
 123      See php.net for details on building and configuring PHP.

 130      You need to put http:// in front of your the URL to your RSS feed

 133  5.    Warning: MagpieRSS: Failed to parse RSS file. 
 134      (not well-formed (invalid token) at line 19, column 98)
 135  
 136      There is a problem with the RSS feed you are trying to read. 
 137      MagpieRSS is an XML parser, and therefore can't parse RSS feed with invalid
 138      characters.  Some RSS parser are based on regular expressions, and can
 139      parse invalid RSS but they have their own problems.
 140  
 141      You could try contacting the author of the RSS feed, and pointing them to
 142      the online RSS validator at:
 143      
 144      http://feeds.archive.org/validator/

 149  
 150      Its a 404!  The RSS file ain't there.
