Thanks Peter.
I tried clearing the cache files but that still gave the same problem:
'Digest does not exist'

Checking the cache file created when accessing http://test.ijhedges.com/digest3.php/AW3CCP51OY.html
shows:
a:2:{s:12:"content-type";s:25:"text/html; charset=utf-8
";s:7:"content";s:23:"Digest does not exist.";}

I don't know if this provides any clues. If not, I'll call it a day on the cache. Until now, it has provided great service from the time you introduced it, thanks.

Regards,
Ian

As you say, the local cache was only a beta - basically cobbled together by me a few years ago without knowing any PHP. I have no idea how PHP 5 would change its operation or how that could be rectified. At least, not without knowing what any of the errors are - they might give a clue.

At a system level, perhaps the cache files have a different user permission than those used by PHP 5 - so you could try deleting all the cache files and seeing if it will start from fresh..

I take it no-one has any input for this.

Thanks, Ian

I have been using the local cache file (from the old forum http://www.feeddigest.info/oldforums/3_363_0.html) since it was released in 2005 and have had no problems until now.
For technical reasons, I have had to update my sites to run PHP 5, which has caused the local cache file to stop working. It also stopped the PHP include working, but that was resolvable by changing to the PHP CURL method.
I know the local cache was only ever a beta, but does anyone know how to change it to work with PHP 5?

Thanks, Ian
