Can RSS Read Feed Time Out Be Increased?

[sab12397]

My RSS feed works fine when viewed in browser but SAB times out retrieving it.

Can the timeout be increased? (180 seconds would probably be a safe value)

Would be even better if the RSS timeout could be set on the Special Config page.

Thanks

Good idea.

Thanks - I should have posted this in the Feature Requests. Is it easy to change something in the code to increase the timeout temporarily?

There will soon be 0.7.7 release that will possibly contain it.
One issue is that RSS access is done by a third-party library.
I haven't looked into it yet.

Sorry to disappoint you.
Because we still support Python 2.5 (required for the Windows binary)
an alternative time-out value cannot be implemented.
At least not without rewriting significant parts to lower level functions, something we won't do.

Thanks for looking.

Is this something that may be supported in the future?

I am using Python 2.7 Linux is there a simple number I can change somewhere?

Thanks

If you're using the source distribution of 0.7.7
Find sabnzbd/util/feedparser.py
Find line 3005

Code: Select all

            return opener.open(request)

change it to

Code: Select all

            return opener.open(request, timeout=120)

or whatever other number you like.
