That explains a lot, lastRSS is the solution I chose in the end, unfortunately I had to choose between PHP5 being necessary, or fopen() being necessary. fopen() seems more prevalent.

Ok, reported to the Snoopy devs here:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1503597&group_id=2091&atid=202091

Okay, the problem IS with Snoopy.

Snoopy sends an HTTP/1.0 request (as opposed to HTTP/1.1 which most apps now use), and gets a 301 redirect in return.

Given that most HTTP clients can cope with 301 redirects, I suggest this is a bug (or perhaps “feature request”) for the Snoopy devs…

Hmm, the ATOM feed (https://ma.gnolia.com/atom/lite/people/barryprice) validates fine:

https://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fma.gnolia.com%2Fatom%2Flite%2Fpeople%2Fbarryprice

But I still get the same problem using it in the script. I don’t get a 301 in lynx or wget, I guess I need to figure out how to get Snoopy into debug mode ??

Looks like the problem is in Snoopy rather than Magpie though – I wonder if I can retrieve the feed using php/curl and stuff it through Magpie manually… Hmm.

Thanks man, I’ll point it out to them.
