Yes. It's very hard to construct recipes inside of Calibre's GUI.
Read This.

is there a built in error messaging that I'm not seeing? Same with the printing, you say you like to " print the results when the recipe runs, then I can see if it's doing what I expect." So you simply insert print statements on the variables? I'll try that.
I do it this way:
Code:
ebook-convert myrecipe.recipe output_dir --test -vv>myrecipe.txt

using as you suggested. However, now I have just the table of contents of rss feed but each link simply leads to:

"This article was downloaded by calibre from http://www.metronews.ca/toronto/local/article/589013--caribana-brings-the-summer-spirit-to-toronto"
It looks like that worked. That shows your recipe created the correct link and Calibre went there. However, when I went there, with scripts blocked in FireFox, I got nothing but photos. Allowing scripts produced the article text. You may need to deal with this issue to get anything.

Try posting your recipe (Inside code and spoiler tags) - I'll look at it.
