I am a RoR newbie. I have a problem with getting the rss content when using rss:maker.make (using rails 2.2.2 and Ruby 1.8). I am trying to get the full XML definition to be written to a file. When I try it locally it works fine and I get the data in the content object. However, when I try this on a hosted environment content does not contain any data. Also when I output the object using object.inspect, the content object look different. Code: content = RSS::Maker.make(''2.0'') do |m| m.channel.title = @mychannel.title m.channel.link = @mychannel.link m.channel.description = @mychannel.description m.items.do_sort = true # sort items by date for myfeed in @myfeeds puts "new items found" i = m.items.new_item i.title = myfeed.title i.description = myfeed.description i.link = "" i.date = Time.parse(myfeed.created_at.to_s) end end puts content.inspect File.open(destination,"w") do |f| f.write(content.to_xml) end object inspection Locally, #<RSS::Rss:0xcf730a8 @converter=nil, @rss_version="2.0", @do_validate=true, @version="1.0", @encoding="UTF-8", @xml_stylesheets=[], @channel=#<RSS::Rss::Channel:0xcf7306c @title. .....
