Is there some reason I can't call a perl script directly for RSS feed? I've built my own screen scraper to harvest weather info for my own personal RSS feed. I don't feel like going through all the extra work of calling it from another file. Wanna just have the perl script spit out the RSS when it is run.
I've tried everything I can think of. The feed works perfect outside of LCD Smartie, but all I can get out of smartie is "[RSS: HTML/1.1 403 Forbidden]"
I did set it up to manually write a .rss file and have smartie read that. That worked fine, but I don't wanna do it that way if I can help it. I want automation. Can't run cron on hypermart's servers, as far as I know, or I'd do it that way.
Our new official repo is on github

Permissions are set correctly. I can use the feed in any aggregator I've tested it with (except LCD Smartie). I can grab the feed with Firefox and view the source - totally legal. I've checked the output with http://feedvalidator.org. No problems.IFR wrote:maybe you need to set permission to read rss feed?
