Update Regarding Broken Feed on MacCraic Podcast

Sorry folks, I made a bit of a boo-boo with the file for the podcast.   I broke the cardinal law of not checking something after you make a change.

I had uploaded the file and checked to see it was working.   Then I went back in and enabled stats on the podPress plugin and happily headed out for the day.  I was at a friends birthday party in The Church Bar on Mary Street last night and didn’t get in until 3:30am this morning.  I brought MacCraic.com up on my iPod Touch (why I don’t know call it cosmic intervention) and discovered that the feed was broken.   I was too tired to even think about why so I left it until this morning.

Everything seemed ok but I checked the super notes on the podPress wiki.   Fantastic help in there, especially for a noob (or should I say knob lol) like me.   It turns out that the enabling the stats feature can cause some feeds to break on some servers.   I guess mine is one of them.   Not really important as I can use Libsyn’s stats anyway.   So I turned it off and hey presto feed is back working.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this.   And a big thanks to shaznyc for contacting me and letting me know it was down.   I really appreciate that.   Beers are on me the next time I’m in the Big Apple.

On a side note we are hoping to do a quick show on Tuesday after the Keynote.   Here’s hoping there will be loads of new shiny things to talk about.

Take care all.
