    Hi , my blog http://www.mrlupin.com/Blog is using wordpress 3.3.1 and recently i don't know why my feed does not work anymore though I can still post on my blog and people can access to my blog.
    when I try to connect to http://www.mrlupin.com/blog/feed
    I've got a 404 error

    any clue?

    It appears you are missing the /feed folders. I went to your website and tried to click on the RSS feed links at the bottom of the page and none of them work. Look in your files and make sure you have the /feed and the /comments/feed folders. I hope this helps!

    @Tim S: Um... there are no physical /feed and /comments/feed folders. They are virtual folders.

    @mrlupin: Have you tried:

    - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    - switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    - refreshing your permalinks

    - resetting your permalinks to the default setting

    Sorry, esmi didn't realize it. Thanks for the correction. I didn't mean to mislead.

    No probs. In this case, there is no blindingly obvious reason why the feed isn't being generated on demand - hence the suggestion to rule out theme & plugins. :-)
