Feed not updating #390

Open mohit-patel opened 4 years ago

mohit-patel commented 4 years ago

I have added a couple of feeds, but only one shows up. The feed seems stuck on a particular date. I haven't been able to update it. I had added the BBC feed in a previous attempt at installation. I have since removed elfeed and reinstalled, but BBC still shows up while the ones I have added don't. My .emacs has the following: (setq elfeed-feeds '("http://nullprogram.com/feed/" "http://planet.emacsen.org/atom.xml"))

I think I am doing something wrong. What could it be?

Did you heck *elfeed-log* buffer?

I'm having the same issues, however I'm using elfeed-org. I ran elfeed-org-export-ompl just to see if it had loaded my feeds correctly, and it looks like they are all listed in the opml file.

In my database directory /home/gregf/.emacs.d/var/elfeed/db I see a file named index that looks like this.

Looking at elfeed-log I see the following.

Nothing in the messages log either.

Curl is in my path, but I also tried to manually specify the path to it. I'm on FreeBSD 12.1-STABLE.

Two generic suggestions (everything is working fine for me and I have no clue what could go wrong in your case):

  1. Try to reproduce with emacs -Q + bare bones elfeed (+ elfeed-org)
  2. Backup your elfeed database to different folder and try to update elfeed with standard database location purged.
