#4426: trouble with feedburner + gzip

     Type:  defect   |      Status:  new             
 Priority:  normal   |   Milestone:  2.3 (trunk)     
Component:  General  |     Version:  2.2.1           
 Severity:  normal   |    Keywords:  feedburner, gzip
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 I'm running 2.2.1-RC1

 When having Gzip enabled in Wordpress (Options -> Reading ->  WordPress
 should compress articles (gzip) if browsers ask for them -> Checked), the
 feeds for FeedBurner will stop working.

 Turned Gzip on, example from FeedBurned page (was just working):

 {{{
 XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
 Location: http://feeds.feedburner.com/willerwin
 Line Number 1, Column 1:?
 ^
 }}}

 On the administration page when logged into FeedBurner, I'm told:

 {{{
 The URL you entered does not appear to be a valid feed. We encountered the
 following problem: Your server is sending us some non-XML data. This is
 usually caused by your blogging platform or server generating an error
 page that is not in a valid feed format (usually it is plain-text, or
 HTML). Please confirm that you source feed is working properly.
 }}}

 When validating the feed (just show you can see how it's showing up on
 http://feedvalidator.org, I get this:

 {{{
 Sorry

 This feed does not validate.

 In addition, this feed has an issue that may cause problems for some
 users. We recommend fixing this issue.

 When Gzip in wordpress is disabled, FeedBurned support works.
 BUT
 While having Gzip ON, and not using FeedBurner and using the built-in
 Wordpress feed (http://www.willerwin.com/wp-feed.php), the Feed shows up
 properly.
