RSS feed error

mojoPortal Version 2.3.5.8 SqlCe
Operating System Microsoft Windows NT 5.2.3790 Service Pack 2
Database                                   MySQL

I have set up a blog on the following page:

http://blog.themorgan.org/secrets-from-the-vault.aspx

When I click the RSS subscribe button I get the following error:

http://blog.themorgan.org/Error.htm?aspxerrorpath=/Blog/RSS.aspx

I have another blog set up on this page:

http://blog.themorgan.org/the-diary-exhibition.aspx

And the feed button works.

Does anyone know what might be causing this error?

Best regards,

Dan

Re: RSS feed error

You'll need to look in the system log (Administration, System Log) to see what error is being generated on the server side.

If you can't figure it out from the error message, you can post the error here, and someone should be able to help you.

Re: RSS feed error

Thank you for your reply. I think this is the error from the log:

2011-02-03 08:31:24,214 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.Global - 69.86.78.37-en-US - /blog9rss.aspx
System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: value

   at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive()
   at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

I'm new to MojoPortal, so I'm not sure what this means. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Dan

Re: RSS feed error

It means the feed is not valid because title is a required field for RSS feeds and the feed apparently does not have titles.

You can also check the validity of a feed with the w3c feed validator.

Hope it helps,

Re: RSS feed error

Hmm, the blog feed should have titles coming from the post titles. There was a bug fixed in the blog feed in the latest release so you might try upgrading.

http://www.mojoportal.com/mojoportal-2361-released.aspx

http://www.mojoportal.com/upgrading.aspx

However, I'm unsure what is going on since the fixed bug had to do with folder based child sites not root level sites. You might also look for the feed url in Administration > Advanced Tools > Url Manager and make sure it points to the correct pageid and module id. If you moved the blog from one page to another it may cause errors, you would need to correct the real url to have the correct pageid if you did move it to a different page.

Hope it helps,

Joe
