# Valid feed but error

 * When moving site from one domain to another everything worked except from the
   WP RSS Multi Importer plugin.
 * To solve the problem I have deleted the plugin, and re-installed it. But with
   the same error message: “You have one feed and it’s not valid. This is likely
   a problem with the source of the RSS feed. Contact our support forum for help.”
 * Category option are set to: FEED
    RSS Feeds is set to that category The feed:

 * Any help will be appreciated!

 * Hi,
    The feed looks fine as I was able to read it using my plugin. The error 
   you are getting means that the wordpress rss reader (called simplepie, which 
   is what my plugin uses) is unable to read the feed. The fact that this worked
   on one domain and not another (did you change web hosting services) suggests 
   the problem resides with the server your web site is on. It may be blocking getting
   RSS feeds, or as one user found out when they did some checking they found out
   the error was this:
 * RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: There are no HTTP transports available which can complete
   the requested request.
 * Again, this is a problem with the web hosting company. So, the first question
   is whether you switched hosting companies when you changed domains…or did you
   not change hosting companies but you are now on a different server?

 * Hi Allen,
 * Thanks for the quick reply.
 * Yes, the moving included switching hosting company.
    Do you know if “RSS Aggregator”
   use the same “simplepie”? That plugin was working on the old server as well as
   the new one. On the old server both plugins was installed at the same time and
   running fine.
 * The reason why we are running two different RSS plugins is that, we want to show
   two different numbers of feeds on different pages.

 * yes, RSS Aggregator also uses simplepie. Right, but you can use my plugin on 
   different pages, showing different number of feeds on different pages.

 * Then there must be an error somewhere in the RSS Multi Importer. Any suggestion
   how I can troubleshoot?
    Please keep in mind that I am not that proficient in
   php.

 * I’m not sure why say there is an error in my plugin. Unless you tell me the error
   I can’t determine what is going on, especially since I don’t have any of the 
   14000 other people who downloaded the program who have told me there is an error.

 * Well, in other words – its not working as it should (and did on the other server),
   and I am only interested in trying to find a solution.
    As the other RSS plugin
   is working jumping to the conclusion that simplepie was not to blame was close.
   Any suggestions how I can troubleshoot further to find the source of the problem?

 * ok..let’s try this…does your theme allow you install the wordpress RSS widget(
   it comes with most themes and is a generic widget..you can see it here
 * [https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3132388/screenshot_426.jpg](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3132388/screenshot_426.jpg)
 * put the rss feed into that widget and see if that works..that there is no error,
   etc.
 * Since that widget that is embedeed in wordpress also uses simplepie, then if 
   that works there is something else going on..and I’ll look to see what that might
   be.

 * also, while you’re doing that, I’m wondering if you could try getting rid of 
   the https: at the beginning of your rss feed…that is use this:
 * [http://www.webcruiter.no/webservices/webcruiterculture.asmx/RSSFeed?company_id=1234782315&CultureId=DA](http://www.webcruiter.no/webservices/webcruiterculture.asmx/RSSFeed?company_id=1234782315&CultureId=DA)
 * and see if that changes anything..thanks

 * GREAT!
 * That was apparently exactly the problem. Why did I not think of trying that???
 * It’s working!
 * Thanks for all your help. It was beyond excellent!
 * Expect a little donation a few days from now 🙂

 * actually, don’t worry about a donation, just rate my plugin by going to
    [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-rss-multi-importer/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-rss-multi-importer/)
 * I think the problem is probably that your server doesn’t want to go fetch data
   from secure sites (https)..I’m going to see if the other plugins strip out the
   https and that’s why they work when mine hasn’t stripped them out.

 * I will do both! Hope you don’t mind 🙂
 * You are probably right. And thinking of it, it’s kind of silly using secure socket
   when RSS broadcasting job offers.
 * But really great that you will look into it.
 * BIG thanks!

 * Also, who do you use for a web hosting company as I may take out a monthly plan
   there to see if I can reproduce the problem..it would be much easier to fix if
   I can get the problem myself. Thanks.
