    • Invalid RSS feed - wrong encoding

    Posted by sooeydoo

    On checking with FeedValidator, it returned the following errors for the Articles RSS feed from my tikiwiki website:

    This feed does not validate.
    *
    Your feed appears to be encoded as "UTF-8", but your server is reporting "US-ASCII"
    *
    line 40, column 242: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x97 in position 4546: unexpected code byte (maybe a high-bit character?) ^

    *
    line 27, column 13: author must include an email address (10 occurrences)

    I can't understand this at all. Please help!

    You need to modify your PHP.ini file and tell PHP to generate all content in UTF-8:

    Copy to clipboard
    default_charset = "UTF-8"


    You can also do this through Apache Virtual Hosts settings.

    But Damian, I'm on a hosted server, and I do not have the rights to change the php.ini file there. Is there any other way of rectifying this?


    Thanks so much,
    Sooraj.

    Right now it says for default_charset - no value (under both Master and Local values).
