I’m quite puzzled about what’s going on. I changed it to this:
# BEGIN WordPress
AddType application/rss+xml xml
<FilesMatch "\.xml$">
ForceType application/rss+xml
</FilesMatch>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.sqldownunder.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://sqldownunder.com/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
And if I access http://www.sqldownunder.com/SQLDownUnderMP3Feed.xml it
still comes back as text/html.

Hi Greg,
This rings bells for me about the order it applies the rules and
subsequently stops processing the remainder of the rules.
There is another way you could do this. It is to put a explicit rule for
your xml file before anything else and then do a FilesMatch .xml then do a
ForceType to rss+xml
Have a search on those two terms and you might find some examples

Hi Brains Trust,
Hoping someone on the list knows about this stuff.
I've moved our old site at www.sqldownunder.com to a WordPress site at
sqldownunder.com (long story). Most things are ok now. I added a DNS HTML
redirect from www to http://sqldownunder.com and that seems to get people
there.
One issue though is our RSS feed. It was
http://www.sqldownunder.com/SQLDownUnderMP3Feed.xml.
I set up a mime type mapping from xml to application/rss+xml in the
.htaccesss file and if I access it via
http://sqldownunder.com/SQLDownUnderMP3Feed.xml it works fine. If, however,
I access it via http://www.sqldownunder.com/SQLDownUnderMP3Feed.xml, it's
returned with the mime type text/html and fails. I've got the following in
the .htaccess file:
# BEGIN WordPress
AddType application/rss+xml xml
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.sqldownunder.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://sqldownunder.com/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Anyone have any clues on this?

Greg
