When I press save button post publishes properly and new page also loads! When I press Publish button blank page opens instead of a page showing that post is published successfully!
BUMP!
Try removing http://rpc.pingomatic.com from your options->writing screen and see if that makes a difference. Let us know if that helps.
Hi,
I have the same problem on my blog.
I tried to remove the RCP link to pingomatic in options, but it didn’t solve the problem.
I hope someone will find a solution to this problem…
Problem solved now but not know how it has been solved!!! I did not remove pingomatic but still now everything worked!! Maybe 2.0.1 version is responsible for it!!
Thanks anyways!!!
I have the same problem. First, it was happening with 1.5.2 install but when I upgraded to 2.0.1 nothing changed. I removed pingomatic link but still no change.
Help.
I am experiencing the same thing, could it be related to certain themes?
bump – I’ve had the same prob since 1.5. Never found a solution to it.
I’m using 2.0.2 and have noticed a similar problem. If I edit a post and click the Save button, I can see that the edit went through pretty much right away by visiting my site in another window. But the edit page takes a looong time to come back and when it does, it is blank (view source shows nothing).
From Ecto, I get a “connection lost” error after a while of “busy cursor/spinning”. Again, the post actual _does_ go through.
Anyone have suggestions of diagnostics or things to try to track this down?

This worked for me!!!! Woohoo!
I tried that and it didn’t make a diff for me.
I installed WP (latest version as of 05/06) on two domains on two servers. One blog works perfectly and the second just started acting up with the post.php pop-up problem two days ago.
EVERYTHING is the same (same ping sites, same plug-ins, etc.). I do not have rpc.pingomatic.com on either site.
When I post something, it saves the post but it doesn’t seem to ping everything (it is much quicker 3 seconds verus 15 seconds on the working blog) and then Foxfire wants to know what I want to do with the post.php file… save to disk or open with some program.
If I save it and look at it, it’s blank.
This is very irritating!
It used to work without error but not it pops up every time I post a message.
HELP!
Hmmm… oddly, I just deleted my entire list of ping sites and ADDED rpc.pingomatic.com (so now it is the only ping site listed)…
And it worked (no post.php pop-up)!
I’m as confused as ever now.
Thanks! I was having a similiar problem, and removed the rpc.pingomatic.com and it works great now. thanks.
This could be down to a memory usage problem, see this post for more details.
I had this problem too. Even after removing the pingomatic URL it still didn’t work. I solved by going through my ping list and eliminating the ones that timed out.
