PTechC Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Hey guys, I use Feedly for my news articles, and am using Neowin's RSS feed in there. Whenever I click on a Neowin story, it opens a page with a URL that references feeds.neowin.net, and then doesn't load. For example, I clicked on the story titled "OneDrive app is preventing Windows 10 users from upgrading to May 2020 Update". The site opens a page with the following URL: https://feeds.neowin.net/~r/neowin-main/~3/EbAA6soUmKk/onedrive-app-is-preventing-windows-10-users-from-upgrading-to-may-2020-update That page does not load in Chrome/Edge Chromium/Firefox/Android Chrome, and gives me the following errors: Chrome: This site can’t be reached feeds.neowin.net unexpectedly closed the connection. Try: Checking the connection Checking the proxy and the firewall Running Windows Network Diagnostics ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED Edge: Hmmm… can't reach this page It looks like feeds.neowin.net closed the connection Try: Checking the connection Checking the proxy and the firewall Running Windows Network Diagnostics ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED Firefox: Secure Connection Failed An error occurred during a connection to feeds.neowin.net. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Android Chrome: This site can’t be reached feeds.neowin.net unexpectedly closed the connection. Try: Checking the connection ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED Obviously, I'm not sure what's going on, but it causes me to have to manually go to neowin.net, and then find the story from the URL (because by the time I do it, I don't remember what story I clicked on to read, since I open a bunch at a time from Feedly). This is a royal pain in the a$$, and I'm hoping you guys can ether shed some light as to why this might happen if it's on your side and then fix it, or if it's something on my end causing issues. I do use Ad Block Plus on my PC, and Blokada on my Android 10.x phone, if that helps. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first question is pretty obvious: what happens if your try again with your adblock disabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTechC Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Heh, forgot to mention that I did try that, but it still didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueScreenJunky Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think the whole domain feeds.neowin.net is broken : https://feeds.neowin.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted July 28, 2020 Supervisor Share Posted July 28, 2020 summoning @DaveLegg Is this something you could take a look at when you get the chance? I don't make use of RSS myself otherwise I'd see if I could replicate the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveLegg Developer Posted July 28, 2020 Developer Share Posted July 28, 2020 @PTechC What's the URL of the feed you're using? PTechC 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTechC Posted July 29, 2020 Author Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) I'm using: https://www.neowin.net/news/rss on Feedly. EDIT: Ok, looks like I have it fixed. I removed the Neowin source, and then did a search for it (just typed in Neowin into the Feedly search), and re-added it. Seems to be working now. The link to the RSS is the same, but I had to remove it, re-add it, and then it worked. News stories, upon clicking, are now going directly to the article without any errors. Thanks for the hint that prompted me to try that fix, @DaveLegg :). Thanks all! Edited July 29, 2020 by PTechC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it's on of those things in technology, similar to the 'if it's not working right, reboot it!'... sometimes a problem just needs a good kick. It was just weird that it worked fine for the longest time, then stopped. I'll take it either way . Brandon H 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
