it doesn't generate the XML file about dir2cast HOT 9 CLOSED

Ben got it fixed, thanks so much. This is a great software, it is going to make my life easier.

do you know I have to regenerate the podcast xml everytime i add mp3 file?? or it will do it on intervals?

Glad you got it fixed.

If you use the OUTPUT_FILE setting, you will have to regenerate it yourself.

If you leave the OUTPUT_FILE setting comment out, but put dir2cast.php in the same folder as your mp3 files, and then set your itunes URL to website.com/dir2cast.php, then it will regenerate by itself with no need for you to do anything.

Can you give me a bit more information on how you use it?

If you want it to output a file called podcast.xml, then you will have to uncomment that line (take the ; away before OUTPUT_FILE)

I did ucomment it and also created the Folder /XML myselef manually but still generates following error:

Writing RSS to: /xml
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/library/public_html/newversion5/dir2cast.php:1923) in /home/library/public_html/newversion5/dir2cast.php on line 1480

from dir2cast.

`fopen(/xml): Failed to open stream: Permission denied

This error occurred on line 1924 of /home/library/public_html/newversion5/dir2cast.php.`

I'll get around to fixing the warning at some point, ultimately it's harmless

fopen(/xml): Failed to open stream: Permission denied <- this is your problem. I presume you've configured OUTPUT_FILE = /xml. Try configuring OUTPUT_FILE = xml/podcast.xml or OUTPUT_FILE = XML/podcast.xml if the folder you created was in uppercase.

"/xml" would refer to a file in the root of the whole filesystem, not within the podcast folder.

As is often the case - the error message tells you exactly what the problem is!

from dir2cast.

Normally you wouldn't configure OUTPUT_FILE at all, you'd just set the URL to yourwebsite.com/dir2cast.php and let dir2cast.php take care of the rest. If you can get it to work without changing the .ini file at all, then you can tailor it to your needs later.

let me give it a try again, but it wasn't generating the XML file for iTunes before automatically. It was actually dumping them into temp.
