After further testing, I believe we're having trouble on the instances where
LDAP authentication is enabled. In the instances where we are using local
users, private RSS feeds are working. Do you have any advice?
Thanks, Lisa

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=pl…
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?
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

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.
