RSS Updating Issue

[dsouvik215]

Hi All,

Small little problem.

Since i have upgraded to the latest SVN, i am having an issue with RSS auto updating.

This is the first upgrade i have done in a little while.

The issue is that i have the RSS feed in rutorrent, i can see and refresh it manually and i can see the little 10 minute or so timer counting down, however rutorrent counts down with the timer but nothing ever actually happens. It just keeps counting down and never refreshes the rss feed. I can manually refresh it and things start to auto download, but if i leave it for a day, it will not auto update.

I am running rutorrent latest SVN + rtorrent 0.8.9.

execute = {sh,-c,/usr/bin/php /var/www/rutorrent/php/initplugins.php churchi &}

Is present in my .rtorrent.rc file as well.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

did you check the rss conf.php?

Its default is 30 minutes.

Mi Mate,

yes i have. i changed it to 5mins to check, the counter counts down but nothing gets updated on the feed. Manual update still works.

This only seems to have happened in the last few SVN updates.

I have the same problem on my box and another mates box. Same SVN version and same issue. Used to work before the SVN upgrade. So i am thinking it could be something with the latest updates in the code.

Is there anything i can turn on to debug this or provide more information?

cheers.

Check permissions. rTorrent user must have read/write/execute access to all subdirectories inside share/users/churchi/settings.
Check web-server errors log.
add to rtorrent.rc line
log.execute = /tmp.exec.log
and check - is rss update is running every 5 min.

Thanks Novik,

That fixed up everything. What i ended up doing is adding the user churchi to the www-data group who owned all the files under the /rutorrent/* directory.

Not sure why this all of a sudden happened, but its back working now.

Thank you for your help.
