So I don’t know what to do. yes cloning and compiling it because is the [latest release is 2.5.6](https://github.com/ICT4H/openmrs-atomfeed/releases/tag/openmrs-atomfeed-2.5.6) , so 2.5.7 being requested for should be the snapshot version of the module which you will get by compiling it ---

I did it, and now I have this when trying to start the atomfeed module in OpenMRS ![Screen Shot 2021-03-23 at 15.24.35](https://talk.openmrs.org/uploads/default/original/2X/3/33455604573e7de0a546e2dcdbc2343150037871.png) Any Idea @gcliff, @dkayiwa ? ---

@anatoleabe could there be a reason why you are using this [platform version](https://github.com/savicsorg/openmrs-module-savicsgmao/blob/master/pom.xml#L56) instead of the latest one? This could be the cause of the incompatibility with the latest snapshot version of Atom feed module ---
