PHP 5 confirmation

could you post the leech settings and the settings on the particular feed that is producing the duplicates?

i'm getting this error as well.

eg feed on my site and settings below:

- feed: http://www.reliefweb.int/RWFeed/Feed?Type=RSS20&ID=02-P&cc=irn
- URL of logo image: http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/304rw_logo.gif
- URL of site: http://www.reliefweb.int
- Author of feed: ReliefWeb

I've got: Generate GUIDs, Publish news items, Update already existing news items all checked on the feed.

In admin/settings/leech i've got the following set up:

- Show link to feed with each item: Inline in body/teaser
- Show link to items with each feed: In links list
- Advanced settings:
- Select parser: leech_news
- Use source link is checked

In admin/content types/page i've got the following settings:

- Enable leech is checked
- Generate GUIDs, Publish news items, Update already existing news items all checked
- Delete news items older than: is set to never
- Promote items: is set to 3
- Use dates found in feed (if possible): is checked
- Show "original article"/"visit site" link: is set to always
- Default leech opml options: is set to my leech template i created though the story content type using the instructions in the Leech README.txt included in the 4.7.x-1.x-dev 2007-Jan-23 release

In my watchdog all feed items are getting the same location - there is a list of various story items in the watchdog table but only one appears:

Location http://www.s176613701.websitehome.co.uk/leech/refresh/727?destination=no...

hope that helps - if you want any more info drop me a line on my contact form - i'll be at my desk most of the day tomorrow

I see the same thing happening. The watchdog entries show several nodes being created by leech, but they all are the same node id so only one node is actually getting created. Also, perhaps related, when I run the leech manually, I don't get any errors, but I do get a blank page as the result.

stanbroughl,

Does the duplication happen if "update already existing news items" is checked off?

ac4lt: Can you reproduce the blank page error? If yes, it would be really helpful if you can turn on showing PHP errors and tell what you see if you run the leech manually. The blank page surely indicate that there is a PHP error somewhere. Do you use PHP5? (I use PHP4 for the development, that's why I think about PHP error)

I find the errror, Something wrong w/ leech + PHP5. I start to catch the problem, but finally I know what casuses this nasty thing.
I use PHP4 + Mysql 5 at my dev site, so I that's why I cannot reproduce the error until now. The reported PHP error warned me.

Aron, do you still need the errors from me? I can try to reproduce it if you do.

hi alex,

yes this doesn't fix the problem

This is a PHP 5 error. Upgraded two days ago, and since then the leech module has been working very strangely. Hope it will get fixes soon.

Have the same problem with Drupal 5 and PHP 5 , is there any patch for this issue ?

Leech isn't compatible w/ PHP5 at the moment. I assume I can create a patch for this critical issue on Friday this week.

The problem was reference-passing instead of value-passing of objects in PHP5. The CVS contains the fix.
