Hi all, I tried to subscribe to a news feed from the Forum (Unanswered SAS Discussions) but I keep getting the message Unable to download feed This feed download was interrupted. I am using IE10. Do the feeds work for anybody these days?

The unanswered thread (https://communities.sas.com/community/feeds/unansweredthreads?community=2007) seems to be working for me. I don't have IE10 on my desktop. I'll connect to a test machine when I get a moment and see if it is working there.

Any news?

: using the link that Rene provided it worked for me with IE10.  Chrome also was able to access it but, with Chrome, it came across as XML text.

Thank you for your time Art. Now I know the problem is at my end. Did you have to enter your username and password in the properties of the feed to access the content? - PG

I simply clicked on the link that Rene provided.  I didn't have to enter anything.  However, that may not be the same link that a feed provides.

Well, clicking that link gets me to the feed subscription page ok. But after I register, the feed doesn't work. I get the message I mentioned earlier, whether I add a username/password property to the feed definition or not.

That I will leave to Rene to respond.

I can't reproduce the problem so I have others testing it. I hope we get information from them tomorrow.

Several people in my group have tested the RSS feeds in various browsers and releases. None of us can reproduce the error that you are receiving. We did all use the feed functionality built into the browser.  Are  you using a special feed reader?

Thank you for your efforts. I am using the built-in feed reader in Internet Explorer version 10. I can read other feeds, i.e. from the BBC, without any problem. - PG
