RSS returns 404 error in IPS 4

Featured Replies

Posted

Hello,

I have just installed IPS 4 and when I try to go to RSS notifications it gives a 404 error. To reproduce go to notifications -> show all notifications -> RSS. The url is like this:

http://www.server.com/forum/notifications.xml

 

It also happens when you go to: new content -> rss. The url is like this:

http://www.server.com/forum/discover/1.xml

This two xml files don't exist and neither does the discover directory. Is this working for everybody ?

Work fine - those files (and the discover directory) don't exist because they are friendly urls.Look at your ACP, search for 'Friendly' and look at the resulting 2 items - one if for enabling/disabling friendly urls and the other is for customising the urls....and that is where you will see the above urls.

What happens when you call http://www.server.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=notifications&format=rss

Thanks Daniel,

Great reply. I wish I had gotten this reply from the client area when I reported this issue instead of the reply I got.

The problem is solved now, it was an issue with the server I use for static content because it wasn't sending the request to apache for .xml files.

Regards.
