For full clarity I'm running 3.18b on Windows Server 2008.

I tried the other posts suggestion of making an rss-test file as instructed and that gave no errors. Given that went okay enough I decided to follow this suggestion replaced all the JS modules in my exec folder with current ones pulled from git and got better results than before - running the timed event no longer results in the previous error, but a new one regarding the server response being "empty."

I've forgotten exactly what that error said as in the middle of typing this message up to generate that error again I got a DIFFERENT one indicating my message base name was incorrect, which had not shown before. Fixing that typo (I often incorrectly format my message base names when putting them in manually, one day I'll get it right) resulted in the code executing with proper import messages via jsexec.

I'm not quite sure what I did to get it going. I played around with debugging in jsexec just to see if I could see where the issue crept up (no dice) and following that it just magically worked.

It certainly seems out of date JS may have been a key factor. In whatever case, it is working now, so, I guess mission complete for the time being? We'll see how it plays out.

As always I greatly appreciate the help. I wish I didn't have to ask so often but these things elude me at times...

Wish we could figure out where the actual issue was...
