Describe the problem you’re having:
Trying to refresh feeds within web interface won’t work and produces a “Communication problem with server” yellow icon on the left of Actions pull-down menu.
If possible include steps to reproduce the problem:
Trying to refresh / force feed update using SIMPLE_UPDATE_MODE to true or by clicking on the feed (any feed).
Please provide any additional information below:
Updating using update.php WORKS, either with --feeds or as --daemon but I am not using cron and I don’t want to.
so you’re too lazy to check browser console, even though you’ve literally been told which button to press, but not too lazy to bump your thread daily until you get a fix. interesting.
anyway, the “news” is as follows:
it’s going to get fixed when i’m done with other stuff
continue to post like this here and i’m going to probate you into next millennium
Hi fox,
maybe this helps, I’m not a webdev so please advice which information could help:

it looks like you get a timeout while updating because it takes too long to update a single feed (there’s provisions to prevent timeouts for sequences of feeds but nothing can be done for a single one)
this i’m afraid is a limitation of simple updates, i suggest you switch to a proper update method, i.e. daemon or at least a cron job
e: either that or increase maximum script lifetime for php (if you can)
I running Tiny Tiny RSS on a VPS which I reserved 2GB of RAM and 2vCPU only for TT-RSS which I believe is a “proper server/instance” specially I only have one user, which is me.
I also have this error on this new installation, I tried with MySQL and Postgress and I understand is is an issue with the update.php
As I mention it is a VPS so I can’t create a system deamon and when I try to run /opt/alt/php73/usr/bin/php /home/USER/www/update_daemon2.php --feeds
I have this error : error: getopt() failed. Most probably you are using PHP CGI to run this script instead of required PHP CLI. Check tt-rss wiki page on updating feeds for additional information.
Don’t get me wrong, your software make me happy and do stuff for me only it could do it (sorting, filtering and republishing RSS) but forcing user to have root access on their host is quite arch no ?
Do you plan to make a version of update2 non daemon ?
Are you sure you are in fact running ttrss on a VPS? Being on a VPS usually includes having root access which in turn means you should be able to install php-cli and run update deamon the way it is supposed to be used.
