I am a bit baffled here and hope you can help. I am migrating my blog from wordpress to drupal. I have set up an alias using path so that the defaults wordpress rss path (~/feed) redirects to the drupa rss path (~/rss.xml). This appears to be working fine.

The problem is that once I switch the site over to Drupal, google feedburner can no longer access the feed. I can, through my browser, see that the feed works just fine by requesting either URL. But feedburner just returns a 502 or 503 error for the feed:

"An error occurred connecting to the URL: Error getting URL: 503 - Service Unavailable"

When I switch my domain back to using Wordpress, everything works just fine once again - even though the URL for the feed has not changed.

I'm not sure this is a feedburner module problem (I've tried with and without the module), but figured you would probably have a better idea than anybody what might be happening.

Is it possible some syntax in my feed is incorrect? If so how can I bring it in line with Google's standards? It seems like its working fine for everyone else, though.

Okay, so I must be pretty stupid here. I was trying to do all this while I had the site in maintenance mode.

duh.
