Joomla-SMF 1.0.2a Config RDF Problem

[skunk]

When running the configuration for the first time I get the following error:

Warning: fopen(http://www.joomlahacks.com/news/mh_announcement.rdf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. in D:\htdocs\\administrator\components\com_smf\rdf.php on line 40

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in D:\htdocs\\administrator\components\com_smf\rdf.php on line 40

This seems to be trying to talk back to the joomlahacks server and failing (it would, the server is not allowed to access the internet).  But this is stopping the configuration of the bridge.  There is no save button so I cannot complete the configuration.

Help.

I commented out the following lines from the rdf.php file

Code: Select all

if($age > $timeToLive) {
  			$ip = gethostbyname(substr($url,strpos($url,'www'),strpos($url,'.com')-3));
  			if ($ip == substr($url,strpos($url,'www'),strpos($url,'.com')-3)) {
  				return false;
  			}
  			$rdfHandle = fopen($url,"r"); // Open the RDF file for reading
  			$rdfData = fread($rdfHandle, 64000) ; // Read in the RDF data. 64K limit on filesize, should be enough.
 			fclose($rdfHandle); // Close the Data feed

  			// OK there is more recent news, so rewrite the cached news file..
  			$localFile = fopen($basename, "w") ; // Open the local file for writing
  			fwrite($localFile, $rdfData ) ; // Pump in all the data into the file.
  			fclose($localFile) ; // Close the local file after writing to it
  		} // end IF

and the page loads correctly with just the following error at the bottom:

Code: Select all

 Error: Cannot reach JoomlaHacks.com feed!

But this does not stop the configuration running.  Is there some way to have the RDF fail to load and not crash the configuration page.  BTW my php is just not up to that task.

Cheers
