NY Times Headlines builtin fails

[Waitingforatrain]

Am new to this whole recipe thing. Was trying to use the builtin to retrive just the headlines and it fails with this. Help please? The full New York Times works but am trying to reduce file size and am mainly interested only in the headlines (en). Thanks.

Probably the markup on the todays headlines page has changed and the recipe needs to be updated for it.

Hi Kovid,

I tried the new recipe you made for both nyt headlines and subscription and it doesn't seem to be working yet.

I get this message for New York Times Headlines:

Would you have any ideas about what's going wrong?

I just tried the headlines recipe -- worked for me. You sure you using the updated recipe? Just use the builtin recipe, it is updated automatically.

Thanks, it seems to be working just fine for me too.

[Acryde]

Oh I didn't know that the recipes are updated automatically, that's good to know! So, I tried again yesterday and today using built-in recipes both for NTY headlines and NYT sub but it is still not working...

What's going wrong? Is it possible that I modified the built-in recipe and now it's not updated automatically any more?

[kovidgoyal]

Use the builtin recipe, not the custom one.

[Acryde]

But as I said, that's what I did... I even removed my custom recipes based on NYT to be sure not to use them again but it's still not working... That's why I was wondering if it is possible that I changed these builtin recipe and that it is why it's not working anymore?

[kovidgoyal]

No, you cannot change builtin recipes. It may be that the NYT serves you different content because you are in europe (I am guessing from the french localistaions in the log).

[Acryde]

Ok, I see. Yes indeed I'm french and am trying to retrieve these news from Paris. Thus I guess it's quite complicated to fix the code in order to make it take into account multiple locations. It's a pity but not a big deal, I'm already very happy with le monde's recipe you fixed!
Thank you
