I am very new to webdesign and using IIS and I am trying to put an RSS feed on my page that has 1 item that is an audio file. I created the .rss file and validated it using an online validator and I put it and the .mp3 file in my wwwroot folder. However when I try to access the rss feed by going to localhost/mypodcast.rss, I get an error screen saying:
HTTP Error 401.3 - Unauthorized You do not have permission to view this directory or page because of the access control list (ACL) configuration or encryption settings for this resource on the Web server.
Here is my .rss file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>Calorie Counter</title>
<link>localhost</link>
<description>Weight loss website</description>
<language>en-us</language>

<enclosure url="localhost/MyPodcast.mp3"
length="1837924" type="audio/mpeg"/>
</item>
</channel>
</rss>
Is there something I need to configure on the IIS to allow .rss files? Or is there a problem with my .rss file?
