Error with XML-RPC

    I’m having some serious bother with XML-RPC and xmlrpc.php.

    My xmlrpc.php file is in http://wilde-world.co.uk/xmlrpc.php

    However when I try to get Flickr to point to it so I can blog photos, it says it has an error and suggests that my blog and username and password is to blame.

    I also try to get ScribeFire to point to my blog and while it finds my blog’s xml-rpc on its own it won’t log in either with my admin account or the seperate account I have set up with it, claiming that the username and/or password is incorrect.

    This is not true as I can log in directly to my WordPress install using both accounts so they do work.

    So, what is wrong with my XML-RPC guys?

    for future reference, and just a friendly headsup, your 2 hour later bump just removed you from the queue of unanswered posts. That queue tends to be the first place ppl look when answering.

    Patience goes a long way here, and typically its nice to wait 24 hours before bumping. Impatience, on the other hand, while tolerated, doesn’t enamor anyone to your cause.

    We all volunteer, and if no-one has answered yet then there a good chance that no-one knows the answer.

    There are several threads on this same subject that have existed for months and so far as I can tell, none have been answered.

    Also, please note that neither post2blog nor blogdesk nor livewriter will work with WordPress due to this same xmlrpc.php error.

    Yes, and it’s quite likely that none of them will be answered. Nobody ever gives enough information to make any sort of informed guess at what is going on.

    We cannot solve problems in a vacuum.

    The problem is not a WordPress related one, it’s a server or site-specific issue. WordPress does indeed work fine with several XML-RPC capable clients, including all of the ones mentioned in this thread. Many of the main WordPress developers use XML-RPC on their own sites. Any bug in this respect would be noticed fairly quickly.
