I tried this about a year ago. The only way I found to get it to work (on a test server) was to create new directory (I named it rss) in koha/opac/htdocs and access it with http://mycatalog.com/rss/file.xml. On 1/1/22 8:43 PM, Bales (US), Tasha R wrote:
Good evening,
I've been reviewing the sample templates and configuration files for custom RSS. On my system, these are installed here: /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/rss. I'm stuck on where to place the XML that is produced in order to make the output accessible/subscribable via the OPAC.
I've tried placing the XML files into koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac and into koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/rss. Then, I tried accessing the files (with permissions set to 755) using the following guesses at URL scheme:
http://mycatalog.com/cgi-bin/koha/lastAcquired.xml (results in a blank page that has only the words "not found" in the upper left) http://mycatalog.com/cgi-bin/koha/rss/lastAcquired.xml (results in 500 internal server error) http://mycatalog.com/lastAcquired.xml (results in an Error 404 in the OPAC, "Sorry, the requested page is not available")
I'm sure the issue is a matter of ignorance on my part as to what the best and acceptable locations are for placing "local" files. I apologize for that, but please know I invested a couple hours before asking. Thanks in advance if anyone has tips as to where to place the files, and then, how to access them.
