There may be several reasons:
- network problem
- wallabag can't fetch content due to the website structure
By default, if a website can't be fetched because of a request error (a 404 page, a timeout, a SSL problem, etc.) the error log message will be displayed in the WALLABAG_DIR/var/log/prod.log
file.
If you find a line starting with graby.ERROR
during the timeframe of your test it means the request failed because of an error.
Please report that error (and the whole text around in the log file) when opening an issue on GitHub.
If you can't find an error message in the log and really can't find a way to parse the content after trying the previous 2 steps, you can enable log which will help us to find why it fails.
- edit
app/config/config_prod.yml
- replace in line 18
error
todebug
rm -rf var/cache/*
- empty file
var/log/prod.log
- reload your wallabag and refetch the content
- paste the file
var/log/prod.log
in a new issue on GitHub
You can try to fix this problem by yourself (so we can be focused on improving wallabag internally instead of writing siteconfig :) ).
You can try to see if it works here: http://f43.me/feed/test (it uses almost the same system as wallabag to retrieve content).
If it works here and not on wallabag, it means there is something internally in wallabag that breaks the parser (hard to fix: please open an issue about it).
If it doesn't works, try to extract a site config using: http://siteconfig.fivefilters.org/ (select which part of the content is actually the content). You can read this documentation before.
You can test it on f43.me website: click on Want to try a custom siteconfig? and put the generated file from siteconfig.fivefilters.org.
Repeat until you have something ok.
Then you can submit a pull request to
https://github.com/fivefilters/ftr-site-config
which is the global repo for siteconfig files.
If you can't wait for update from fivefilters - you can place your config file into directory
vendor/j0k3r/graby-site-config
in your wallabag main directory.
Keep in mind these changes will be erased if you update your wallabag.
If wallabag failed when fetching an article, you can click on the reload button (the third on the below picture).
