Not sure if this is an error in coding at the website, or a glitch
with SM
2.0.1's News & Blogs function, but here are the details for your
purrusal:
Website is http://www.earthsongsaga.com/index.html. When I attempt to
subscribe to the page (Bookmarks | Subscribe to This Page), it opens
up a feed
page with a "Subscribe to this feed using" box at the top. As I
stated above,
I use the News & Blogs feature in the drop-down box, but when I click the
Subscribe button, the Mail module comes to the fore, and the Status
Bar has a
line in it that states "http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml is not a
valid
feed." That's it. Nothing more. No way to troubleshoot the problem or
investigate why it's not considered a valid feed.
Additionally, this feed *was* considered valid by SM 2.0, and I was
already
subscribed. It was after I upgraded to 2.0.1 that SM started giving this
notification in Mail/News.
OS is Win XP SP3 with mostly current patches (behind a few,
probably). (And
for those checking UA's, yes, I'm still using 1.1.18 for active
mail--at least
until Karsten gets Mnenhy finalized for 2.0.x.)
TIA for feedback, analysis, and advice for the site author if
necessary --
I'm thinking a site-problem.
I get the identical response in tonight's Linux trunk nightly
(experimental-SM-2.1a1pre):-
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091231
alias Firefox/3.5.4 Lightning/1.1a1pre SeaMonkey/2.1a1pre ID:20091231000353
I even tried manually entering the page's RSS-button's URL
"http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml" into Blogs and News feeds
subscription page, and got the identical "not a valid feed" response.
OK, I just tried it in stable SM-2.0:-
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4) Gecko/20091027
alias Firefox/3.5.4 Lightning/1.1a1pre SeaMonkey/2.0 ID:20091027201209
and go the same-result:- "http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml is not
a valid feed."
Do you think it now really isn't a valid feed? Barry.
