I attempted to add another dispatch domain to a Kynetx app yesterday and could not get the app to fire on the new domain. I’ve seen some lag on domain updating before (usually limited to an hour or so), so I decided to wait a day and see if it updated.
After about 24 hours, the app still will not fire on the new domain. So, I removed a domain that had been in the app for a while to make sure I was not me making a typo (if it was a typo, the app would update correctly and would not fire on the removed domain). Unfortunately, it still fires on the domain that was removed.
So now the app fires on a domain not listed in the dispatch{} section, but doesn’t fire on one that is listed. I have tried the testing version of the app and the production (deployed) version, but both have this same problem.
Any ideas? Anyone know of downtime with Kynetx’s dispatch domains server?
Update: the app also fires on a google search to annotate the results from the same domains in the dispatch. This is also not working. I have added a few more domains, and the app does not fire on any of them.
Update:
select statements:
select using "google.com|bing.com|yahoo.com" setting()
for the search annotation
select using ".*"
foreach datasource:spreadsheet("&sq=domain%3D" + page:url("domain")).pick("$.feed.entry") setting (site)
for rule that fires on that domain.
Keep in mind, I didn’t make any changes to the select statements or rules.
New domains I added, to both the spreadsheet datasource and the dispatch domains:
3flamingosyogurt.com
massageenvy.com
abcapartmentsolutions.com
worldsoffun.com
Long story, short: The Google Doc datasource had been set to not republish itself upon updating.
There were other complicating factors, but I’ll leave those out for now :).
Moral of the story is always republish your datasources.
