Kovid,
When I got up this morning I rebooted my machine and now the error is either much better and/or much stranger than before. The lead custom source in my list is a version of the Jerusalem Post that I use for benchmarking. When I click on it it does in fact download the Jerusalem Post. If I now click on my last entry, which is Whispers in the Logia - a new source using the newer 'recipe' I am told I am downloading the 'Jerusalem Post' but in fact it does download the Whispers in the Logia. If I click on the hourglass I am showen that, indeed, librs500 v4.46 is processing the Jerusalem Post. If I now click on the New York Times things get very strange indeed. My user name and password are embedded in the profile but I none the less get the following error message:

Quote:
ValueError: The The New York Times recipe needs a username and password.
Failed to perform job: Fetch news from Jerusalem Post
Detailed traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "libprs500/parallel.pyo", line 139, in run_job
File "libprs500/ebooks/lrf/feeds/convert_from.pyo", line 40, in main
File "libprs500/web/feeds/main.pyo", line 126, in run_recipe
File "libprs500/web/feeds/news.pyo", line 816, in __init__
File "libprs500/web/feeds/news.pyo", line 393, in __init__
ValueError: The The New York Times recipe needs a username and password.
Log:
Fetching feeds...
Note that line 1 says that the New York Times recipe needs a username and password and that the second line says it failed to perform job: Fetch news from Jerusalem Post.

I have attached a pdf file containing 8 screen shots documenting my stepwise operations and what librs500 is displaying. It may very well be that this is what was going on last night but my connection was so miserably slow that I canceled what I thought were multiple downloads of files I had no interest in.
