Shaun Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 My RSS feed was working great on all browsers until I checked it a couple of days ago and found that it has stopped working. I uninstalled the "feeder" module and re-installed it, still not working. I also checked the rss.xml in the root folder as this is what the error message seemed to be pointing at, but could not remove the white space (pardon my ignorance for trying this :-) ).I did some research online but did not find anything, the only thread I found was someone mentioning it may be the "&" symbol in the product description. As a precaution, I added a bunch of new products with no "&" symbol but this did nothing. I am totally stumped why this would stop working, anyone have any ideas?

rocky Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 It looks like the problem is that there is a character at the start of the file that shouldn't be there. Make sure that there is no space character or any other characters before the <?xml. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hey Rocky, thanks for the reply. What you suspected is exactly what I tried to change with the "white space" at the beginning of the file. I tried a different way in that I opened the xml file in Visual Studio, copied all the code and pasted it in Notepad++ which looked good without the white space at the beginning of the file.However, as soon as I saved it, the white space automatically appeared, try as i might, I cannot delete the white space.

Shaun Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 Can anyone help with this? I've tried everything I know to try get this working again but to no avail (uninstalled both Feeder and BlockRSS modules, re-installed, deleted positions, hooked again into left column block....but still getting the xml parse error) :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Hey Akbar, I checked my rss.php file and I do have the correct ">" code. I suspect my problem is the rss.xml file, thanks for trying though :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
