# Ecto Parse Error

 * All of a sudden, I am getting parse errors while using Ecto to check on / post
   to my WordPress blog. For example :
 * > Method “metaWeblog.getRecentPosts” produced a server error: “parse error. not
   > well formed”.
 * This is the full error text Ecto returns. Here is what is bizarre about the whole
   thing :
 * 1. Previously rock-solid stable, and no errors.
    2. I have changed nothing on
   my end of the connection. 3. My host claims they didn’t change anything. 4. I
   didn’t change any WordPress file (or any file at all) on my server, aside from
   posting. 5. On a separate test blog (hosted on the same server, same PHP, and
   same MySQL, same 2.0.6 WordPress install), everything works perfectly.
 * The server is reporting :
 * faultCode -32700
    parse error. not well formed
 * I find a lot of half-solutions and “me too’s” on these forums, and the internet
   in general, but nobody has posted a specific, confirmed fix for this. Does anyone
   know what the fix is, and are you willing to post a specific, fully-detailed 
   fix to this problem?
 * Thanks for the help !

 * SOLVED !
 * The problem is defined by Googling “WordPress.net.in”
 * THE SOLUTION :
 * The nut of it is replacing these files with known good copies :
 * index.php
    xmlrpc.php wp-admin/admin.php wp-admin/index.php wp-includes/wp-db.
   php wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php wp-includes/gettext.php wp-includes/default-
   filters.php
