I have a similar, yet different, problem — I have permalinks enabled (www.robservatory.com), and yet, the /feed directory feeds don’t work at all. I get 404s or just no response from the browser. The “old style” URLs are working fine.
Permalinks seem to be working right in general, as the stories themselves can be read via their permalinks…
Any ideas? I’ve searched the forums, but not found anything useful.
thanks;

Seems you have problems with your .htaccess… Try to renegerate the part of .htaccess that is needed by WordPress to run with “nice” URLs.
Here’s my feed-related part:
RewriteRule ^feed/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /index.php?&feed=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /index.php?&feed=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$ /index.php?&paged=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^comments/feed/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /index.php?&feed=$1&withcomments=1 [QSA,L]
RewriteRule ^comments/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /index.php?&feed=$1&withcomments=1 [QSA,L]

What I’m seeing with your feeds looks to be this problem:

Thanks! That did the trick. Feeds are working again…
