I have fresh install of 4.7.4 and feedparser. Creating new content aggregator item, I enter the URL http://search.ebay.com/ws/search/SaleSearch?sofocus=bs&satitle=hdd+playe... and it get's cut down to http://rss.api.ebay.com/ws/rssapi?FeedName=SearchResults&siteId=0&langua... when I enter it into the link field, and of course you can't even submit a working version of this feed. This is brand new install of Drupal using default theme. I thought this was already fixed?

When you installed the module did you get any SQL errors in the Watchdog Log/on screen?

The feedmanager modules install script specifically changes the way a URL is stored in the database using:
db_query('ALTER TABLE {aggregator_feed} CHANGE url url TEXT NOT NULL');

Your URL works fine for me here on a test site, although I have been fiddling with it over the months so may try a fresh install later today for you.

What database backend are you using?

there aren't any sql errors......the problem is on the form, the link field in HTML is maxlength 128:

<div class="form-item">
 <label for="edit-link">Link: <span class="form-required" title="This field is required.">*</span></label>
 <input type="text" maxlength="128" name="edit[link]" id="edit-link"  size="60" value="" class="form-text required" />
 <div class="description">The fully-qualified URL to the complete story.</div>

That will teach me to leave form fields to Drupal's defaults! Set to 1024 characters now.

Using the RSS feed http://rss.api.ebay.com/ws/rssapi?FeedName=SearchResults&siteId=0&langua... as a test, everything worked nicely. I didn't even know eBay had RSS feeds until this issue was posted ;)
