When creating/ refreshing a feed I get the following:

warning: file_get_contents(http:) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Applications/xampp/xamppfiles/htdocs/*/sites/all/modules/simplefeed/simplepie.inc on line 7759.

This is because no URLs are being sent to simplepie. Looking in to this I noticed that the database table 'simplefeed_feed' remains empty. For some reason, none of the following functions are being executed when feeds are added/updated; simplefeed_load(), simplefeed_insert(), simplefeed_update().

Any idea why this is happening?

I am using Drupal 6.5, and latest versions of CCK and Views. (Problem was with D 6.4 also)

Did you install the simplepie.inc library in the module's folder? This is a dependency.

Yes, I did install simplepie.inc - the error/warning message makes this quite clear ;)

Thanks

The same problem in 6.6
simplepie.inc version is 1.1.1

When I'm creating a node (feed) I don't have a field "URL" and a "feed settings"
I don't know why.
I have a multisite with different databases. One site works fine with this module other don't.

SOLUTION IS:
Remove a node type called "Feed". This type was leaved by module FeedAPI . This module wasn't removed correctly - see a tables "feedapi_*" in database...
After removing a type "Feed" created by FeedAPI you will see a type "Feed" created by SimpleFeed (which can be deleted).
Use it in usual way.
Create -> Feed (You will see a field URL and more).

Huh? This doesn't make any sense!

I think he's saying that another feed module is using the same database name space and you need to delete (uninstall) the previous Feed content type so that SimpleFeed can create it's own content type Feed.
