Can't add AppleGeeks...

[anonymous]

Tried to add AppleGeeks? to my comic folder, and wasn't able to:

I'm sorry, I couldn't retrieve http://www.applegeeks.com/rss/.
MagpieRSS: Failed to parse RSS file. (Empty document at line 1, column 1)

I tried looking into this further but it appears the RSS is legitimate: Firefox has no trouble with it, and it is a HTTP 200 response (not a 302 or something).

[nathan@sunset ~]$ telnet www.applegeeks.com 80
Trying 207.44.236.29...

The only thing I can think of is that MagpieRSS might not support chunked responses?

Thanks for reporting. The problem seems to be with gzip. As a temporary fix you can add

define('MAGPIE_USE_GZIP', false);

to your dbinit.php file.

Closed by [1477]. The website was sending the header

Content-Encoding: gzip

with the incorrect case.
