      This problem might not be specific to 3.0 but I've not had a chance to test on 2.10 yet.

      If a page on Confluence has the unicode 0x14 character then any feed that tried to use the content of this page will cause the following to be logged:

      <HTML page content snipped> is not legal for a JDOM character content: 0x14 is not a legal XML character.
javax.servlet.error.request_uri: /createrssfeed.action
os_authstatus: success
Parameters:
spaces : conf_all
publicFeed : false
title : Internal Blog RSS Feed
timeSpan : 5
rssType : atom

      The page that did have the bad characters was -
      https://extranet.atlassian.com/display/RS/Lost+Opportunities+Detailed+Report

      • although I've since removed the 0x14 character from that page.

            I doubt this is specific to 3.0. We haven't made any significant changes to the way RSS is generated, and we've never filtered it for XML-illegal characters.
