Hi Nicholas,

Try the following:

Instead of using the proxy url to your RSS Feed,type the direct RSS Feed url eg.http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/rss/news

This should work for you

Hi panayiotiscy,

I have tried it with the espn url and with http://www.nation.co.ke/-/1148/1148/-/view/asFeed/-/vtvnjq/-/index.xml and still it is not shwing anything on the screens. If I try to preview the presentation on my local machine the ticker shows the below error "Click here to understand missing RSS  data".

And when I use a url I had previously created using Yahoo Pipes, that is: http://pipes.yahooapis.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=23cfcfc972efde42bccaa18e0da19fc0&_render=rss , it displays well when i preview it on the local machine but does not show anything on the screens.

What might be the problem?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hi Nicholas,

      I ve tried one of the urls that you have provided me: http://www.nation.co.ke/-/1148/1148/-/view/asFeed/-/vtvnjq/-/index.xml on our Dmps running 5.2.1 and it's working fine.

     Maybe try restarting one of your dmps and re-send the presentation with the desired url.??

Hi panayiotiscy,

I have tried restarting and pushing the same presentation and and the RSS is not showing anything. I have used both the urls even the one form yahoo pipes but it's still not showing anything. I have even disables the proxy on the DMP but its still not working.

Please help.

Nicholas,

Have you resolved this problem?

We currently have the same problem with DMS v5.2.1.  If you copy the XML file and place it on an IIS server with no authentication, then it should work.

I don't know if version 5.2.2 fixes this.  But was told that we should not go to v5.2.2 as it has bugs.
