SimplePie Not Parsing RSS Feed


I've been using SimplePie for about 4 yrs now w/Curl...and it's worked great up until 2-6-17.

For the last 12+ hrs I've been trying to narrow down why it won't parse any of craigslists list feeds. I've tried ever possible scenario available. I do get a 200 return with the data, but it includes it with an error.

is invalid XML, likely due to invalid characters. XML error: Not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1, column 1

Here's the weird thing, it works with fopensocket with no problems.

Here here some of my settings:

Ubuntu 14.04

Apache/Ngnix

PHP 5.6

Host: VPS DigitalOcean

SimplePie v-1.4.3

$rss = new SimplePie();

$rss->set_feed_url('http://detroit.craigslist.org/search/apa?availabilityMode=0&bedrooms=3&format=rss&min_price=800');

$rss->useragent= 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.7) Gecko/20070914 Firefox/2.1.0.7';

$rss->get_item_quantity( 10 );

$rss->force_feed(true);

$rss->force_fsockopen(false);

$rss->set_input_encoding('UTF-8');

$rss->set_output_encoding('UTF-8');

$rss->init();

$rss->handle_content_type();

Here's the return of the header:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Cache-Control: max-age=900, public Last-Modified: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 18:24:12 GMT Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 18:24:12 GMT Content-Encoding: gzip Vary: Accept-Encoding Content-Length: 5991 Content-Type: application/rss+xml; charset=utf-8 X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN Server: Apache Expires: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 18:39:12 GMT

I've done a RSS validate and it didn't have any significant errors.

Also, tried it on a brand new server/same settings and got the same result.

They do work on the demo site simplepie.org/demo...so I'm thinking it has something to do with my server settings.

Any help would be appreciated!


Solution

  • Found it! Now works with older proxies What to do with extra HTTP header from proxy?

    I added this on line 158 of FILE.php

                // cURL automatically handles Proxy rewrites, remove the "HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established" string
                $this->headers = explode("\r\n\r\n", $this->headers, $info['redirect_count'] + 1);
                $this->headers = array_pop($this->headers);//$this->headers[0];//
                if (false !== stripos($this->headers, "HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established\r\n\r\n")) { $this->headers = str_ireplace("HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established\r\n\r\n", '', $this->headers);}
