Hi -

I've been using PmWiki with a distributed science team for a couple of 
weeks, and it's working out quite well. Thanks for providing a great 
app.

I do have a problem, however. I've turned on RSS output in 
local/config.php. When I enter a command like

https://.../pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.RecentChanges?action=rss

in Firefox 1.0 on Linux or Safari on Mac OS X, I get the message

XML Parsing Error: xml processing instruction not at start of external 
entity
Location: https://.../pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.RecentChanges?action=rss
Line Number 2, Column 1:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
^

Any idea why this occurs?

Here's my server profile:

Red Hat Linux (2.4 kernel)
Apache 2.0.52 with SSL
PHP 4.3.10
PmWiki 2.0.beta26

  phpinfo shows:
XML support active
XML Namespace Support active
EXPAT Version 1.95.6

Thank for any help.
