Environment
All
Resolution
The issue is seen in the Spotfire Server Version 12.0.0 and later and has been addressed in
TIBCO Spotfire version 12.4.
For the TIBCO Spotfire Server version lower than 12.4
This error is seen if the RSS feed consists of less than 3 items as the code designed expects to show the first 3 items.
So as a workaround in order to avoid this error the RSS feed must be modified so that it contains at least 3 items.
