lack of news

Post by Red Squirrel »

I don't know what's up with the news bot, but it's not posting anymore. Lot of stuff broke on the server when I did an "upgrade" and that's one of them. The DB file is being thrown somewhere else or something, and I just don't have time these days to start troubleshooting these things, so it will be a while until you see anything posted, unless it magically fixes itself.

No news? Would this problem be less noticable if I review C&TCF tomorrow or in a few days?

Sure we do need more articles here, I have no time to write any myself, not until I get back to college anyway.

But in this thread I'm talking about outside news from other sites. I really don't know why, but when news gets parsed it's not being added in the right "to post" database, it's just being thrown in the home directory of the news account, which is a really stupid place for it, given the bot can't access that.

I might have to just force it to use a full path rather then relative. But I hate having to hard code stuff like that as I may want to move the folder some day without having to recompile, but oh well.

Forgot to post that I fixed it. :lol: As you can all see, news is being posted on the home page.
