[TYPO3-english] Ameos - Formidable - Rss Parser - No Items to display

I have tried the thing you suggest – but not much luck…



With
function writeXmlFile($sFilePath,$rssData,$bUTF8 = FALSE){
An empty file is created in upload/tx_ameosformidablerssparser/ (size 0 
byte – showing size ‘—‘ in Quixplorer).

With:
function writeXmlFile($sFilePath,$rssData,$bUTF8 = TRUE){
An empty file is created in upload/tx_ameosformidablerssparser/ (size 3 
byte)


I have inserted ‘debug($rssData);’, but nothing shows up in FE – neither 
|debug| nor any xml codes

------
function writeXmlFile($sFilePath,$rssData,$bUTF8 = TRUE){	
debug($rssData);
	$rFile=fopen($sFilePath, "wb");
	if($bUTF8 === TRUE) {						fputs($rFile, "\xEF\xBB\xBF" . $rssData);
	} else {
		fputs($rFile, $rssData);
	}
	fclose($rFile);
	return false;
}
------

Install tools are set to this:
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['devIPmask'] = '*'
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['sqlDebug'] = '1'
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS['FE']['debug'] = '1'

-----

I have also tried to install ‘ameos_formidable_rss_parser’ on a new 
TYPO3 ver 4.2.1 installation – hosted by the same provider – on the new 
installation I only installed:

TemplaVoila!
ameos_formidable
MagpieRSS 0.72
ameos_formidable_rss_parser

Same result – ‘No Items to display’

Then I installed ‘ameos_formidable_rss_parser’ on an older TYPO3 ver 
4.1.5 installation – also hosted by the same provider – here are the 
fees perfect. This site also use uft-8.

Is it possibly that something missing in the 4.2.1 installations – is 
there something that has to be installed on the server, or something 
must not be installed on the server?

Regards
Jogvan
