Error:"Could not parse feed data" when google alerts rss link

Closed this issue · 6 comments

Hi,
I use goread on Google App Engine with https,
When I import 1 google alerts rss link:
https://www.google.com/alerts/feeds/11417126274666643498/15999350246225937995
I receive this error: "Could not parse feed data"
Please fix it,

Thank you

This appears to be a badly UTF-8 encoded feed. When viewing that link through chrome, there is no encoding error. However, if you curl -O test.xml https://www.google.com/alerts/feeds/11417126274666643498/15999350246225937995 and view test.xml in your browser, you will see chrome print an encoding error. I think this is a bug with the feed itself. If that's true, I can do nothing. I'm pretty confused as to what's going on here, though, so I could easily be wrong. For now, I'm unaware of how to fix this. Sorry.

Thank you for check this issue; that feed I import into another feed reader like: goread.io or feedly is all OK, (only on my hosted goread is error); so I in future you can fix this please do it soon because google alerts feeds is very important for me as many others. Thank you.

Leaving this open instead so I may try again.

Thank you :D

This is fixed now. Thanks for the report.

Thank you so much 🎯
