"Error while using XML iview" with XML iview template

[Former Member]

Our portal platform: HP-UX, WAS 6.40 JAVA, EP 6.0 SP14

We created an XML iview using XML iview template and configured the XML source URL with RSS feeder addresses such as"https://forums.sdn.sap.com/rss/rssmessages.jsp?forumID=41". And then select RSS to XHTMLB as the XML transformation format and save. When I try to preview the iview, I always got error "Error while using XML iview, please contact your system administrator". Here is the log and among which I found an error "java.net.UnknownHostException: news.163.com". Does this indicate that the Portal server is not able to interpret the address of the URL host?

Hi Yepin Jin,

I am facing the same issue did you solved it?
