Ok, I was hoping to find a post that would help me out but didn't. I have version 1.0 final and have installed rss importer. Everything works great. the problem i am having is the cron I have set up isnt running the import.php. I had rss import set up in my older RC4 site and it worked fine.
I have copied the import.php to my root directory, CHMOD'd import.php to 644, and have my cron set up like this:

/ramdisk/bin/php5 -q /home/MYHOSTUSERNAME/public_html/MYROOTDIRECTOY/import.php

the difference that I see with this from my previous install, is that instead of import.php it was import_rss.php

is there something Im missing? Thanks.

The rss import module has not changed. There is no difference between the one released in Pligg 1.0 RC4 and now.

Mine works when I use this url, but the problem is that it isn't importing images this way. It use to work perfectly this way in pligg 9.9.5, but not anymore. Its driving me nuts!! I can only import with images if I import manually via the admin panel. But this is so impratical for me, I really need this cron job.

/usr/bin/php -q /home/myhostusername/public_html/import.php

For some reason when I try to run the cron from modules/rss_import/import.php, it says no such file or directory.

My Host gave me this path to use, /opt/php/bin/php -q /home/myhostusername/public_html/modules/rss_import/import.php, but I receive this error - 'you need to copy this file into your root Pligg folder.' The problem is that when I run the import.php from my root pligg folder, it will import, but without any images.

Can any admins duplicate this problem by running import.php from the root directory?

Thanks,
Jon

Here is the solution,
1. copy import.php to your root directory
2. open import.php
Here is what it looks like

<?php

if (strpos($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 'rss_import') > 1){
	die('you need to copy this file into your root Pligg folder.');
}

include_once('../Smarty.class.php');
$main_smarty = new Smarty;

		include_once('../config.php');		
		include_once(mnminclude.'html1.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'link.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'tags.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'smartyvariables.php');
		
	include_once('../modules/rss_import/rss_import_settings.php');
	include_once('../modules/rss_import/rss_import_main.php');
	
	rss_import_do_import(false);

?>

3. remove the ../ in front of all of the paths. for example
Make

include_once('../modules/rss_import/rss_import_settings.php');
	include_once('../modules/rss_import/rss_import_main.php');

into

include_once('modules/rss_import/rss_import_settings.php');
	include_once('modules/rss_import/rss_import_main.php');

4. Talk to your webhost and find out how to cron through your server and cron the import.php in your root.
5. You are done
Hope this helps

Thank you, but I already have my import file in my root directory as well as removed all ../ , I still get no images when I import through a cron job, only the stroy without an image.

I'm using Pligg 1.0 (newest), my import.php is in root directory, it contain:

<?php

if (strpos($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 'rss_import') > 1){
	die('you need to copy this file into your root Pligg folder.');
}

include_once('Smarty.class.php');
$main_smarty = new Smarty;

		include_once('config.php');		
		include_once(mnminclude.'html1.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'link.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'tags.php');
		include_once(mnminclude.'smartyvariables.php');
		
	include_once('modules/rss_import/rss_import_settings.php');
	include_once('modules/rss_import/rss_import_main.php');
	
	rss_import_do_import(false);

?>

Exactly the same problem here. This is going on for years and nobody cares about solving this...

[chencb]

nobody to solve it? why not provide a simple help note in the module?
