PLEASE help. Server change and FutureRSSS no longer works

I've just moved my feed to a new server. On my previous server FutureRSS worked perfectly. I have reconfigured the script exactly as I did the first time to reflect the server changes but the script no longer works.

My new server is dreamhost.com
The server is using PHP 4.4.2 I have also tried it using PHP 5.1.2

The script is located at http://www.dailyaudiobible.com/feed/dailyaudiobible_future-rss.php

The feed is located at
http://www.dailyaudiobible.com/feed/dailyaudiobible.xml

I am DESPERATE to get this figured out. I have one of the most popular spiritual podcasts on iTunes but it is a daily 7 day a week cast and without FutureRSS I am toast. I am going to have to manually do this until I hear from you because when you hit the script at this point NOTHING happens. It just sits there. Dead.

Thank you for your help.

Can you post what the following section of your script looks like?

Code:

#-------------------------------------------
# Script setup area
#-------------------------------------------

# $cfg["rss_feed"]='http://www.mydomain.com/myfeed.xml';
$cfg["rss_feed"]='myfeed.xml';

$cfg['fetch_method'] = "fopen"; // fopen, curl
$cfg['url_override'] = true; // Warning! security unsafe!
// use "url" parameter to pass RSS feed to script
// example: http://localhost/rss_proxy.php?url=<url>

$cfg["filter_method"] = "time"; // time - display item if ITEM_TIME <= CURRENT_TIME
// date - display item if ITEM_TIME <= endOfDay(CURRENT_TIME)

#-------------------------------------------
# Script
# plz, do not change anything below this line
#-------------------------------------------

Thanks

Sure here it is.

ADDITIONALLY, I know the feed is being hit because I changes the title from "RSS Proxy" to "DAB Proxy" and that is what displayed in iTunes (DAB Proxy) with an error indicator. I am updating the feed manually until I can get the script to work.

Many servers don't allow the use of 'fopen' to retrieve anything but local files. Try changing this line in your script:

$cfg['fetch_method'] = "fopen"; // fopen, curl

to

$cfg['fetch_method'] = "curl"; // fopen, curl
