Here is a thread of several people who have discovered this problem:

https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=29989&forum=28

This is a VERY big problem and no one who can fix it seems to care in the least.

This problem WILL cause many people to use an alternate CMS that does allow functional RSS inputs because that is one of the most important features of a CMS.

This problem NEEDS to be fixed... PRONTO

Can you:

1. Detail the environment your site is using (using Apache vs. IIS, which ver of PHP 5, version of mysql)
2. Try enabling register_long_arrays in your PHP.INI and see if the headlines module then functions properly?
3. If #2 fails to fix your problem, turn on PHP Debug Mode in System -> Preferences -> General Settings. Try the failing action again. If any errors are displayed, respond to this message with the error text.
4. If #3 does not display any errors, turn on MySQL Debug Mode and try the same action again. Respond with any queries that are colored red.

Oke, I've tried all of you're suggestions, but nothing helped .
Only difference is I used .htaccess because i'm not able to access/modify php.ini. Both debug modes showed nothing wrong.

Did you verify that your settings actually changed the running values? Not all settings done under .htaccess will be enabled at the backend.

I'm confused, are you the same user as toosxzi? i.e. Pronto...

No, i'm not, Just someone searching the forums for an answer to my problem. I found this thread and tried the suggestions.

About the setting using .htaccess. How can I check?

Simple way to get all the info is a file you create, name it <anything>.php . Put one line in it:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

All will be told in the output.

@DonXoop
Is there an entry in phpinfo that indicates whether the host has granted permission to use htaccess to modify settings?

I don't think so, since whether .htaccess files are allowed depends on the Apache configuration, not the PHP configuration. .htaccess file).

What exactly does your .htaccess file look like?

Thx Dave_L. I'm just following the thread because toosxzi mentioned using htaccess and PHP5 and as you had pointed out in the aforementioned post, it can be a method of resolving the long_arrays setting issue. I believe some hosts just don't allow you to use htaccess and I wondered if there was an easy way to tell, rather than by contacting them.
