Consuming RSS Feeds in ASP

[kuttyjapan]

Hi,

I try to consume an RSS in ASP using XML.

My Page:
http://articlesbazaar.kuttyjapan.com/Household.asp

RSS to consume :
http://ezinearticles.com/rss/Home-and-Family-Home-Improvement.xml

But it throws the following error

Error Number : 507
Error Description : An exception occurred

I am using the following algorithm

It always fails at the following line.

xmlHttp.Send()

Please help.

Have you tried the code with any other RSS feeds? I've found using xmlhttp and xmldom somponents to display RSS feeds to be a little erratic at times, either not displaying the feed or producing the error that you mention. I've looked around the web for ages and unfortunately am yet to find a solution

I think it is MSXML 3 at fault, try using 4 or 6, this has been an issue with msxml3 on windows 2003 since windows 2003 has been around.

TO fix it I had to recycle the pool, it happens about every 3 hours or so if the feed is used much on XML3.
