# rss feed error

 * I am getting this error message in 3.2.1. (If it matters, the last plugin I installed
   was Hiddy Captcha? to block comment spam.) This is the error message found in
   the Incoming Links box on the dashboard: **RSS Error:** A feed could not be found
   at [http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://www.mysite.com/](http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://www.mysite.com/).
   I read the information and it is not a resolved issue from the years that came
   up in the query. Is this my host’s issue or a wordpress issue?

 * I’m getting the same or similar error on my website:
    RSS Error:A feed could 
   not be found at [http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://naturalremediesforhepc.com/](http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch_feeds?scoring=d&ie=utf-8&num=10&output=rss&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://naturalremediesforhepc.com/)
   Can anyone help.
 * What I think I need to do is somehow locate my RSS feed and change the code to
   match my home page where I post all my posts. But I don’t know how to find it…

 * It’s your host, not your plugin. That feed is from google and some hosts have
   trouble with it.

 * Me three. Exact same (or similar) problem.
 * `"RSS Error:A feed could not be found at http://. . ."`
 * I just temporarily avoided putting RSS on my widget until I can get the problem
   fixed. The Google page comes up and the RSS feed gets attached to my Google home
   page, but it is empty. No actual feed is displayed.

 * My host is with fatcow.com. I have another website at fatcow that has no problems
   whatsoever, but it uses a different theme. Maybe it is a problem with the theme?
   Mine is Coraline 1.1.
 * If I type in http: // www . mysite . com / feed / the google page comes up offering
   me to either semd it to my Google Homepage or to Google Reader. I select, “Google
   Homepage.” It works but doesn’t display any feed. If I add that address into 
   the RSS widget, that’s when I get the error.

 * I use Hostgator -I’ll give them a call and maybe they can help me with my RSS
   feed. Maybe they can help me fix it. It was working when I first put up my site
   about 3 weeks ago…then one day it wasn’t.
    I’ll also try a different theme…first
   to see if maybe that will fix it. I did change it. thank you, sherrylwiseman

 * Right, if the URL works outside of WP, it’s the way your host lets feeds get 
   imported that way. IIRC it’s CURL, and recently there was a server update that
   broke it for a lot of people.
 * It’s your server, not WP, and there’s a server patch for Apache (or … PHP, I 
   forget which was stupid) and it’ll be resolved.
 * THANKFULLY this feed is not terribly needed for your site to run 🙂 Any decent
   analytics plugin will give you the same.

 * Thanks for all of your responses. I still don’t know what happened. But sometimes,
   you wait a day and look again, the problem is solved. I guess WordPress tweaked
   something because as I was preparing to report the issue to my host, I noticed
   all was back to normal. Back to blogging on Blackbiter.com!
