new feeds not loading

[ginahoy]

When I log in, there's a red error message at the top:
"Update daemon is not updating feeds."

When I click on the error message, I get this:
Update daemon is taking too long to perform a feed update. This could indicate a problem like crash or a hang. Please check the daemon process or contact instance owner.
Last update: 2010.02.01, 3:06

what to do?

[fox]

Well, looks like it works now.

[ginahoy]

It was broken for most of yesterday PM. I guess it's nice when things fix themselves

[fox]

Works now = I have restarted the process.

[ginahoy]

Fox, looks like the process might need to be restarted. I'm getting same error as before.
Thanks, David

Hmmm. It could be that one of the feeds is hanging the update daemon. Well, let's try it again.

[ginahoy]

all is well again. Thanks

[ginahoy]

Hey Fox, the Online version appears to be down. Same error as noted in OP. Thx

[fox]

Looks like the daemon chokes on several feeds in the database and hangs.

Code: Select all


ttrss_online=> select feed_url, update_interval, last_update_started from ttrss_feeds order by last_update_started desc limit 2;
             feed_url              | update_interval |    last_update_started

Update attempt for these two feeds have been initiated last, I'll disable them for the time being to see if that helps.

Ok. Error message is now gone and I received feed for this forum (my earlier message, but not yours, yet). However, I have about a dozen news feeds (NY Times, AP, local newspapers) and none of those updated. I know there's a lag in TT-RSS so maybe I just need to chill for a little while...?

BTW, the two bad feeds you listed are not mine

UPDATE: Two more feeds have now updated.
UPDATE: All feeds have updated

[fox]

I have added some sort of basic protection against stuck update processes, we'll see how it goes.

Hey Fox, your new code may have a bug... my feeds haven't updated today. Or maybe a coincidence?

My feeds normally display well over a hundred news stories by now. I'm not seeing any error messages.

[fox]

Yeah, lol. I kinda threw away the baby with the bathwater there a little bit. That is fixed now.
