Hi All,

I've installed the latest ES, also tried the stable 0.20.x releases, with the 0.1.0 river and nothing seems to happen. I cant see any requests hitting our server which hosts the RSS feeds. There just doesnt seem to be any activity.

I followed the examples in;

[http://www.pilato.fr/rssriver/](http://www.pilato.fr/rssriver/)

> **[dadoonet/rssriver](https://github.com/dadoonet/rssriver/)**
>
> rssriver - Elasticsearch Rss River (PROJECT STOPPED)

Doesnt seem to work. Here are the steps I followed after installing the river.

# Create index

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/someindexname/](http://localhost:9200/someindexname/)' -d '{}'

# Create river

curl -XPUT 'localhost:9200/\_river/someindexname/\_meta' -d '{  
"type": "rss",  
"rss": {  
"feeds" : [ {  
"name": "somerssfeed",  
"url": "[http://someurl/rss.xml](http://someurl/rss.xml)",  
"update\_rate": 120000,  
"ignore\_ttl": true  
}  
]  
}  
}'

# Create mappings

curl -XPUT '[http://localhost:9200/someindexname/page/\_mapping](http://localhost:9200/someindexname/page/_mapping)' -d '{  
"page" : {  
"properties" : {  
"feedname" : {"type" : "string"},  
"title" : {"type" : "string"},  
"description" : {"type" : "string"},  
"author" : {"type" : "string"},  
"link" : {"type" : "string"}  
}  
}  
}'

# Perform search

curl -XGET '[http://localhost:9200/someindexname/\_search?pretty](http://localhost:9200/someindexname/_search?pretty)'

In /var/log/elasticsearch/[clustername].log file I can see the following entries when I restart ES;

[2013-03-27 14:41:32,109][INFO][river.rss] [servername] [rss][someindexname] Starting rss stream  
[2013-03-27 14:41:32,401][INFO][river.rss] [servername] [rss][someindexname] creating rss stream river [someindexname] for [[http://someurl/rss.xml](http://someurl/rss.xml)] every [120000] ms

But once again, nothing happens. Any help/ideas would be brilliant.

Cheers,

Kris
