simplepie error : XML or PCRE extensions not loaded!

using simplepie it does not load the target feed, and does not display any errors. Just nothing. 

if your feed is init'd with $feed check for feed errors with: 

      $feed = new SimplePie();

$out .= "feed errors: " . $feed->error . "<br />";

or 

echo $feed->error

then to fix the error: XML or PCRE extensions not loaded!

you will need to install xml for php on your server

check version of php and install xml for that version

fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;

for my server it was 

sudo apt install php7.4-xml

Ah well there goes that hour... but now its fixed for next time hopefully this may save you the same weird error when using simplepie.

Our brains are wired to find things we are looking for - if your always cynical or waiting for things to go wrong, then your life will reflect that. On the other hand, having a positive outlook on life will bring you joy and provide you with inspiration when you least expect it ☀️🍉🌴
