RSS feed not working

[nichu42]

Hey,

Is the RSS feed working for you?
Since a few updates ago, my RSS reader reported problems with it. Now I wanted to investigate, but opening https://changedetection.cloudron.example/rss?tag=&token=xxxyyyzzz (link from CD home page), I get 500 Internal Server Error.

The log shows

Jun 22 12:53:23 ERROR:changedetectionio:Exception on /rss [GET]

Is it just me or is it ChangeDetection or Cloudron?

Not sure where the issue comes from, but I cannot reproduce this at least and the RSS feed works as expected.

@nebulon Thanks for testing on your end! It suddenly stopped working for me, no idea why (I didn't change anything, only automatic updates).
I now switched to notification via ntfy. But depending on the number of update notifications, I might need to go back to RSS. I'll do a re-install first in that case.

Working fine here..
