miniflux retries

Feeds often timed-out with the errors like this1:

dial tcp: lookup <url> on 127.0.0.11:53: server misbehaving

This issue is probably due to a low connection timeout limit. After a few errors Mini flux will cease to retry automatically. However, retrying manually is not an option as this occurs several times a day. From this issue, there is a flag called -reset-feed-errors that will remove error counts on all feeds so that Miniflux will attempt to fetch the feed again. Run this as a cron job makes a pretty acceptable workaround for this annoyance.


  1. dig @127.0.0.11:53 url inside the container shows no problem whatsoever. ↩︎
