Looks like the RSS - XML options are not working...

When i go to:

http://my.rsscache.com/.../rss/world/index.rss

The XML I get states: "Problem Accessing This Feed"

Should be fixed now. I had forgotten to tell the newer webserver that .rss files should be parsed as PHP (since that's how the RSS gets generated). When RSScache's cache blows out, things should be back to normal -- I just tested it with the raw URL and got a properly formed RSS document back in return.

Should be fixed now; I had neglected to configure one of the web servers to treat .rss files as PHP, so it was delivering php source code instead of RSS. Oops.

I cannot access the RSS feed. Perhaps I am doing it wrong but using FeedReader for http://my.rsscache.com/www.rockclimbing.com/rss/messages/index.rss I get

"The feed at URL address http://www.rockclimbing.com/rss/messages/index.rss is having problem being parsed by our system. The problem can be caused by incorrect formatting of the feed or access problem to the feed's publisher Web site. Try validating the URL with this link: http://www.feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http://www.rockclimbing.com/rss/messages/index.rss. If the URL doesn't validate, please contact the feed's webmaster. For more help, contact us. Thank you."

If I try to access http://www.rockclimbing.com/rss/messages/index.rss directly, I get an error from FeedReader stating "..does not contain feed subscription information".

Am I doing something wrong or is the RSS down?

By the way, I tried to look in the Help page (http://www.rockclimbing.com/site/faq/) but the page is blank.

Nope, it looks like the feeds are hosed (...again). I'll fix them.

You're the 3rd person in recent memory to have said this -- I can't for the life of me seem to replicate your problem. It's slow as hell sometimes, but I can't seem to get a blank page -- it loads the FAQ for me. What kind of browser are you using?

I am using Firefox and am using the Help link from the menu at the top of the screen.

I took a look at the source in Firefox and it is

"< body>< /body>"

(My spaces before the 'body' and '/body so I could get them to display as text)

I tried it in IE and the same problem, only the source is

"


< BODY>< /BODY>"

The FAQ is fixed (I also pushed out a bunch of improvements to search and removed the excess padding from the FP photo).

However, RSS feeds are behaving very, very strangely. I'll have to debug them later, as I need to run now. Sorry.
