FeedDemon sync problem and fix

Mon, 24 Apr 2006 at 20:09 • Chetan • Filed under Uncategorized

..synchronized feeds couldn’t be updated while our server was down, and to make matters worse, FeedDemon kept displaying a “synchronization service unavailable” message every time it tried to connect - so not only could you not get new content, but you were also bombarded with error messages you could do nothing about.

Yes, that’s right. To continue receiving updates during the outage, I had to turn off the synchronization I had applied to on two of my regular folders. They remain turned-off for now. But, it looks like Newsgator is on it to avoid a recurrence of this problem.

In a nutshell, FeedDemon will attempt to detect when a connection failure is due to a problem with our server, and when this happens it will provide a simple way to temporarily disable synchronization so that synchronized feeds are retrieved from their source rather than through NewsGator.
