 * Greetings,
 * I am running WP 2.6 on several domains. I updated several days ago.
 * One site the blog feed and the comments feed work with no problems.
    [http://www.flyboyjon.com/blog/feed/](http://www.flyboyjon.com/blog/feed/)
   and [http://www.flyboyjon.com/blog/comments/feed/](http://www.flyboyjon.com/blog/comments/feed/)
 * On another site nether are working.
    [http://www.steamfaire.com/ops/feed/](http://www.steamfaire.com/ops/feed/)
   and [http://www.steamfaire.com/ops/comments/feed/](http://www.steamfaire.com/ops/comments/feed/)
 * On the third site the entries feed fails but the comments feed is fine
    [http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/feed/](http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/feed/)
   and [http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/comments/feed/](http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/comments/feed/)
 * I checked all of the PHP files for spaces and tabs outside the PHP tags. Lots
   of spaces, no tabs. Removed them all and uploaded the files. The problem still
   persists.
 * The error is:
 * >  XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity
   >  Location:
   > [http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/feed/](http://www.wanzeraviation.com/airship/feed/)
   > Line Number 2, Column 1:<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?> ^
