Redirect of RSS feed resulted in invalid URL

I have changed my feed to FeedBurner and used the instructions for adding the <itunes:new-feed-url>
to the original RSS. Now the feed points to http://http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheRabiesShot. With the extra "http://" it comes back with an error. I probably made a typo when redirecting the feed, but now I have no idea how to tell iTunes the actual URL.
http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=182953106 is my podcast here.
Any help would be appreciated.

How about a feed for the most popular threads on discussions.apple.com? Like the one available for the old site.

Help: Editing RSS Feed Button for Feedburner URL

I have an RSS feed on my iWeb site - just the standard RSS item from the iWeb menu, but I'd like to change the URL to the feed to a Feedburner URL.
Is there any way of doing this without having a custom button? I can't see any way using inspector or anything...
TIA

I think I'll just create a custom button with the RSS link on it, containing the link to the Feedburner feed.
After looking around a bunch, I'm not sure you can do this as an iWeb setting...

RSS Feeds in J2EE

Hi,
We are planning to develop a webapplication which includes a RSS feeds which uses a standardized XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favorite websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. How we need to go about in java j2ee? Is there any JAVA API which supports this I saw JavaMediaFramework whether this is of any help. Please send few links on how we can develop this which will help me a lot.
Thanks.

Thanks gimbal, I am using the ROME API to create RSS feeds and publish it (standalone application). Where I am getting the updated details from the DB
to display the updated RSS feeds results every 2 minutes using my TIMER scheduler.
My queries are:-
How i can publish these information in the web?
Is it like rather than creating a stand alone desktop app. with main(String args[])
create a servlet application which will be running in a servlet container, create an index.html for this application which will have
the URL for RSS feeds to be accessed by the users?
How these updated RSS feeds which is been published will be accessed by the consumer's and how we can notify these users about an
updated RSS feeds?
From the receiver end whether they need to install any RSS reader or aggregators to access the updated RSS feeds?
Please clarify as you have already an idea about this as I am understanding how it works.This will be of great help.
Thanks.

Alternate ways to update RSS Feed URL in iTunes Store

Hey all,
Ok, so I am having issues with updating my iTunes Store RSS URL. Here's the storyin a nutshell. If any of you have experience with this i would really appreciate some help, because I have been stuck for week now.
I started my podcast using Podbean.com as a host, and when I first submitted my podcast URL to th iTunes Store, I used the RSS URL that podbean gave me which was http://unfilteredandrew.podbean.com/feed/. A few weeks later, I decided to move my host to SquareSpace, therefore I have a new RSS URL for the podcast now. I understand the directions frovided by Apple on how to change the URL by inserting the <itunes:new-feed-url> tags into the XML file. This is where the problem lies. Podbean.com is not able to instert this tag into my the XML file (its a long story, I have been dealing with thier incompitent customer service for weeks now). Let's assume for now that this method is not optional.
SO my question to you guys is - is there another way to update the RSS URL feed? Currently the iTunes Store see's http://unfilteredandrew.podbean.com/feed/as my RSS feed, but I want it to see the NEW one which is: http://andrewunfiltered.squarespace.com/podcast?format=rss
Please help!!

Ignore the 301 redirect - this is really intended for other rss readers than iTunes.
If you are creating a feed somehow and submitting that to Feedburner, which then passes it on to iTunes, and if you can add the tag to that original feed it will also appear in the Feedburner feed and the redirect will take place.
If you are creating the feed only in Feedburner by entering details, there you cannot directly edit the feed - I don't know whether Feedburner provides a way of doing this: most online podcast creation services don't.
If that's the case then you will have to abaondon the old feed. You should attempt to get the old podcast removed from the Store - instructions here (though there have been a number of reports that iTunes Store staff are simply not bothering to carry out this process) - and submit your new feed as an entirely new podcast. You will probably need to make a small change in the title, as a bug in the Store software may tell you that the podcast has already been submitted: and of course you will lose any subscribers or comments.

Error messages when submitting a validated RSS feed URL to iTS.

Why do I keep getting error messages when submitting a validated RSS feed URL to iTS. Feed is http://streaming.integrationworks.com:3000/archive/feed2.xml
I get variations on the follwoing message: "We had difficulty reading this feed. Bad http result code: 504"
I validated this file at http://www.feedvalidator.org/. I am able to manually place it in iTunes (Open Stream) and download episodes. I can paste the URL in my browser and retrieve an RSS feed page.
Any ideas?
Rick

You have to remember that when subscribing manually, it's only your iTunes application which is doing this - the Store is not involved at all. When submitting, the Store software checks the feed as a technical check before its assessed for content by humans; but how this is done and what sort of call is made to the server is another of Apple's dark secrets.
You're the third with a similar situation in the last couple of days, and I've seen this arise before: though the specific message about a proxy server is unique to you. (A proxy server would act as an intermediary - anyone accessing the feed would ask the proxy for it, and the proxy would retrieve it from the actual server and pass it back, masking the original server's URL in the process. Whether this is actually what is going on is obviously something only your server technicians can say - and then there's the question of what is different about a request from the iTunes Store.)
If all else fails you could place the feed on another server and try again - you could do this and leave the episode media files where they are, they don't have to be on the same server as the feed, as long as the server in question can handle 'byte-range requests' (which is a quite separate can of digital worms).

Firefox changes the url of my RSS feed. How do I fix this?

It changes the URL from http://www.vict-consultancy.co.uk/rss_feed.rss to feed://www.vict-consultancy.co.uk. The result is the xml code is shown as text on the web page http://www.vict-consultancy.co.uk/rss_feed.rss
The RSS feed seems to be working properly in other browsers (IE, Safari, Opera), it's only Firefox that is doing this.

This is only a problem if you open the feed link directly in the location bar.
If a feed is added via a link tag in the page code then it should work as you can via the above posted code.<br />
Firefox 13 doesn't have the "subscribe to this page" icon on the Navigation Toolbar by default, so you would have to add it yourself to easily discover live feeds.
<pre><nowiki><link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="http://www.vict-consultancy.co.uk/rss_feed.rss" />
</nowiki></pre>

Script to open RSS feed url's and post those in the background to a webpage

Dear everyone,
Im trying to work on a script that should do:
- Read My Apple mail RSS feeds every 120 seconds
- extract a NUMBER from the links from those RSS feeds
- then post them to a website url site.com/rss.php?id=<extracted id>
- It should run totally in the background of my apple
- The links should be posted in the background also without opening any browser or safari
Is this possible?
I have my apple now 4 months and this is my first applescript project, so its a bit too much for me, ive spend several hours investigating on how to do this can someone help me out a bit please?
on idle
if application "Mail" is running then
-- read RSS feeds from apple mail
-- Extract link ID www.site.com/?id=12345
-- Post Id 12345 to http://site.com/rss.php?id=<the id>
end if
return 120
end idle

Read My Apple mail RSS feeds every 120 seconds
Start by using a different RSS application.
Mail.app doesn't provide any access to RSS feeds via AppleScript, so there is no chance of doing this with Mail.app (or, at least, no easy way to do so).
Try something like NetNewsWire instead.
Once you have a viable app, the first part is pretty straightfoward:
on idle
if application "NetNewsWire" is running then
--extract a NUMBER from the links from those RSS feeds
tell application "NetNewsWire" to set numLinks to total unread count
end if
return 120
end if=idle
From here, though, I don't know what you're trying to do. You say:
then post them to a website url site.com/rss.php?id=<extracted id>
Do you mean you want to post the number of RSS messages (since that's what you asked for earlier), or do you mean you want to re-post the RSS articles? Or do you mean you want to download the links and re-post the entire linked article?
That's three options (and there are probably more), each of which require a different approach.

IWeb09 RSS Feed Button not providing the correct URL

I use iWeb 3.0.1 and MobileMe to host my own domain. However, I want to add a Blog with RSS feed. When I insert the RSS Feed button it creates a link to http://www.<domain>/username>/Blog/rss.xml. This doesn't work in RSS readers since the path is not valid.
However, if I manually edit my RSS reader to point to http://web.me.com/<domain>/<username>/Blog/rss.xml it correctly finds the RSS XML file indicating that the Blog pages are being published correctly.
Is there a bug in iWeb or have I not configured something properly? I can't find a way to manually edit the RSS feed button.

Your domain uses URL forwarding with masking. It has no meaning for links. It's just cosmetics.
This is the webpage that counts :
http://web.me.com/philipksmith/philipksmith/Blog/Blog.html
The blue RSS button is the wrong one.
!http://www.wyodor.net/_Discussions/WrongRSSButton.png!
Why not enable personal domain and use your domainname properly.
To use your domainname, follow the instructions in your MobileMe account where you setup Personal Domain:
https://secure.me.com/account/
Where you'll find a link to [iWeb: Using your own domain name|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1107]
Or read it in the [MobileMe help|http://help.apple.com/mac/1/help> : Account > Setting up a Personal Domain
You can have only one domainame with Personal Domain at MobileMe. To use the other one you have to enable URL forwarding where you host your domainname.

My RSS Feeds in Outlook link to articles online and today for no reason I keep getting url fail messages in outlook. Somehow the two aren't communicating correctly anymore. Any thoughts?

Today or over the weekend, for no reason that I can tell, all of the links in my email (just checked that too) and my RSS feeds no longer link to FireFox. The following error appeared in Outlook "General Failure. URL:... An error occured in sending the command to the application." I'm not sure if it's Outlook or Firefox but this just happened for no reason that I could tell and I'm not computer savvy enough to go in to Outlook and figure all this out. It's worked with no issue for well over a year. The only recent change to Firefox I've made is to add an Amazon wish list toolbar...which I'm not even sure how to delete if that's the issue...but I'm not sure that it didn't work after installing that add-on. I've made no recent changes to Outlook (2007).

Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app. I am certain other applications also need this information. Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information. Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

Safari mangles url for rss feed

I have a local test 'domain' on my 10.4.11 system. That domain name is cvwa without any dots. This has the ip address of localhost and/or the ip address of the internal network (like 10.0.0.8). Urls like http://cvwa/default.shtml work perfectly on both Safari and on Firefox. However, if I use http://cvwa/tryrss.xml, Safari first, briefly shows feed://cvwa/tryrss.xml (as it should) but then immediately changes to http://tryrss.xml/ which, of course does not exist. Firefox has no trouble with it and correctly handles the feed. Further, if I put the same xml file on the outside with a complete domain name like www.cvwa.org, then both Safari and Firefox correctly deal with the feed. Is Safari broken or am I doing something bad? The test feed is http://www.cvwa.org/tryrss.xml if you think the xml is at fault.
I have turned proxies off completely for this test but it is the same on or off.
10.4.11, Safari 3.1 (but behaved the same just before the recent update to Safari)

Go to your blog and click on the RSS button in the URL window of Safari to view the rss feed. Then copy the RSS feed page's URL from the URL field at the top.

RSS Feed URLs

I need help pronto! I have podcasts on iWeb and I wan to put them on my existing website and not on .mac. I clicked publish to folder and it asked me for a URL for an RSS feed. Do I put my site address there? What do I put? I don't know. Please help!

Do I put my site address there? What
do I put? I don't know. Please help!
Yes, you put your site address, like http://www.myname.com.
Make sure when you upload via ftp that you upload 2 things: the folder with the same name as your site has inside iWeb, and the index.html file published alongside that folder. If you don't do the folder you will break the rss link.

Transform TREX search results to RSS-feed

Is it possible to transform the results of a search query to a rss-feed or an xml file that can be used by a feed reader?
Basic idea is to create an information service that runs a scheduled search on defined topics and provides the results in a list that can be sent by email or combined with search results from other sources, e.g. Google News.
Is using the Open Search API the right way?
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Matthias

Hi Richard,
I think, you will mostly have to discuss this with Google. Just like TREX has ways to assume other engines results as TREX' own, Google may have these ways. But integration will mostly have to come "top down" from Google in that case.
And it might be easier to find a way to make your pages (it's a catalog, I assume?) accessible to the Google Crawlers, rather than trying to handover the index.

HELP?!? - Trying to find an RSS feed URL

In the latest update of iTunes the Podcast page has been reworked, and you can no longer find the little "i" icon that used to tell you about the Podcast, and it would display the URL of the RSS feed.
Anyone know how to find a podcast URL feed now that the icon is missing in the new iTunes???
Any help would be great. I just want to look at some of the feeds I like to see how their code compares to mine for accuracy.
Thanks!

Scratch the above....it was answered elsewhere, thx
