Hi Sergiu,
For about a month, I have been happily getting watchlist updates from a private RSS feed by appending &basicauth=1.
My feed URL is in the following format: http://subdomain.domain.com:8080/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/WatchListRss?xpage=pla...
Sometime this week, it suddenly stopped working. I deleted the feed and tried to re-create it, but each time, I get the error "Outlook cannot process the RSS content from [feed URL]. The link may not point to a valid RSS source."
I am using Outlook 2010 for RSS feeds and Internet Explorer 9 for browsing. (I cannot change these tools; they are our corporate standards.) We are currently running XWIKI 4.2 milestone 1.
Do you have any ideas about why basic authentication might *suddenly* stop working -- or only work intermittently?
Thanks! Lisa
I'm not sure it's the auth part that's broken. Try to open the URL in a browser and then validate its output, for example using http://validator.w3.org/appc/#validate_by_input -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@ http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users Hi Sergiu, it does not validate. However, RSS feeds ARE still working on our two *development* instances (not production); and those URLs do not validate either. I am checking with my the server administrators; they might have changed a security setting, or something like that, on the production server.
