[also responding on the melkjug.org-feedback list] Hey Nick, Thanks for the heads up. As for the first problem, here's what's happening: we are fetching the resource at http://feeds.wired.com/wired/politics, getting back a text/xml document (which we identif as a feed), and passing it to feedparser. However feedparser is choking on parsing the feed. From the log on the live site:
2009-01-28 09:57:11,122 ERROR [melkjug.controllers.feed] Error locating feeds in http://feeds.wired.com/wired/politics: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melkjug/melkjug/controllers/feed.py", line 134, in _find_feeds_in_url ff, response, content = self._check_for_feed(url) File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melkjug/melkjug/controllers/feed.py", line 170, in _check_for_feed ff = feedparser.parse(content, url) File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melk.feedparser/melk/feedparser/parser.py", line 52, in parse melkify(ff, url) File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melk.feedparser/melk/feedparser/parser.py", line 74, in melkify e['melk_id'] = identify_entry(e, url) File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melk.feedparser/melk/feedparser/parser.py", line 93, in identify_entry return melk_id(eid, normalize_feed_url(feed_url)) File "/usr/local/melk/deploy/0.4.1/src/melk.util/melk/util/hash.py", line 63, in melk_id hash.update(iid) UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 29-32: ordinal not in range(128) I will look into this further and get back to you. As for the second issue, Luke can probably tell you more.
