What is Gregarius?

Gregarius is web-based RSS/RDF/ATOM feed aggregator. It was designed to run on your web server, allowing you to access your news sources from wherever you want.

How much does it cost?

Gregarius is free software, released under the GNU General Public License

Where can I download Gregarius?

Gregarius can be freely downloaded from the Gregarius sourceforge.net download page

Where can I ask for help?

I’m considering setting up a mailing list. In the meantime you can contact me directly by email.

The front page (index.php) loads correctly, but I’m getting “404 Not Found” errors on the other pages

This is usually caused by conflicting mod_rewrite rules defined in a subdirectory of your web server.

Here is what you should try:

1. Make sure the mod_rewrite is installed and enabled in your web server’s configuration file

2. Rename the “rss” directory to “gregarius“, for example

3. In Gregarius’ .htaccess file, right under “RewriteEngine on“, add a new line:

   RewriteBase /gregarius/

   (Assuming that you are accessing Gregarius on http://your.site.com/gregarius/)

4. Make sure that your apache configuration file has an “AllowOverride All” directive for the directory Gregarius is installed in.

Can I prevent people visiting my Gregarius installation from accessing the Administration area?

Refer to the Password-protecting the Administration section document.

I defined the Administrator username and password in the rss_extra.php file, but the authentication doesn’t seem to work!

This is usually the case when PHP is installed in CGI mode. You should use either of Apache’s native authentication methods instead.

Some of the pages in the administration section return a 404 error.

This happens when mod_rewrite is installed but an “AllowOverride none” directive prevents the rewrite rules from taking effect.

Follow the steps described above. If everything fails go to: http://yoursite.com/rss/admin/index.php?domain=config and toggle rss.output.usemodrewrite to off
