I success add the RSS Feed
But when I load the link /rss.xml
I got a error
"{"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"An unexpected error occurred while generating the RSS feed. Please try again later."}"
And also there is a error in the backend
"2025-06-15 13:12:21,063 WARNING [plone.restapi.search.query:119][waitress-1] No such index: 'show_inactive'
"
Can someone point out when I am doing wrong?
You need to provide more steps. How are you creating RSS feed. You have to create content-type RSS_Feed and generate link from there. That's the whole idea of having a backend addon.
Yes I have the backend addon and frontend addon
I install the frontend addon by edit and add
/test-project/frontend/packages/volto-test/package.json
"addons": [
"@plone-collective/volto-rss-provider"
],
"dependencies": {
"@plone-collective/volto-rss-provider": "*"
},
and install the backend addon by edit and add
/test/backend/pyproject.toml
dependencies = [
...
"rss-provider"
]
Than I go Site setup > Add-ons and install the rss-provider
Next I go in the test site and added a rss_feed and fill up some information. and it do list the items normally.
After I go to that url/rss.xml
It result
{
"error": "Internal Server Error",
"message": "An unexpected error occurred while generating the RSS feed. Please try again later."
}
You need to save the page. And click on "Copy feed link".
yes save and published
And I click Copy Feed link too
And while visit http://192.168.141.130:3000/test/rss.xml
{
"error": "Internal Server Error",
"message": "An unexpected error occurred while generating the RSS feed. Please try again later."
}
And the copied link nothing very strange
In my current development site, I have the index 'show_inactive'. Querystring Search — plone.restapi v9.14.0
Do you have this index (in portal_catalog?)
What happens if you add an index (Bool) with name 'show_inactive'.
Can you help me by tell me details steps for doing that？
I am new to all of this.
Thanks
Go to:
http://localhost:8080/Plone/portal_catalog/manage_catalogIndexes
At the top of the page, add an index 'bool'. (click on the 'Add' button on the right side.
Thanks for your idea, but it just make the content disappear after login 
You might have to reindex (that index).
Anyway: can you check if the error is gone ?
