 * I am getting this same error. I was getting the 1680 error when trying to verify
   URL.
 * I have not contacted Blubrry support yet for this 500 internal server error when
   verifying URL.
 * Replacing Powerpress plugin 6.3.3 with version 5.0.10 fixes the verify URL error.
 * I have disabled all other plugins from my site. I changed themes to the twentyfifiteen
   and still get the verify URL error using Powerpress 6.3.3 plugin.
 * I can post more details about my setup.

 * More troubleshooting here. I found a version of Powerpress plugin ver 6.2.2 and
   get the AJAX Error: Internal Server Error.
 * Again, going back to Powerpress plugin ver 5.0.10 fixes the URL issue.
 * What has changed for verify URL from ver 5 to ver 6? Is it expecting a new setting
   that needs to be set somewhere?

 * Hello martymankins,
 * Your issue is not the same as nepali65. nepali65 was having an issue signing 
   into Blubrry services. You are having an issue with the verify button.
 * Can you tell me more…
    - URL to media File that has the error.
    - Version of WordPress you are using.
    - Info about your site. Go to PowerPress > tools menu, select the “Diagnostics”
      option. At the bottom of this page, enter my email address cio [at] rawvoice
      dot com and then click send to share your site setup. Please also do the CC
      option so you get a copy.
 * Sometime in version 6.x we changed from using CURL directly to using the WordPress
   built-in http library to get the media file during URL verification. I will try
   to duplicate the same setup you have in order to duplicate the issue.
 * Also, if don’t mind replying with all the other places you posted this question,
   it would be greatly appreciated. I believe you may have asked this same question
   on other social sites like twitter or Facebook. We will respond to all inquiries
   everywhere you asked them, it would save our staff a lot of time if you would
   let me know this up front so we do not double, triple, etc.. our efforts.

 * Thanks, Angelo, for the clarification.
 * URL:
    [http://www.banalleakage.com/podcast/BanalLeakage-077.m4a](http://www.banalleakage.com/podcast/BanalLeakage-077.m4a)
   WordPress 4.5 (this also happened with 4.42 before I did the upgrade)
 * Powerpress Diagnostics:
    Email sent.
 * I think the only other place I posted a support issue was on the Blubrry support
   site, when I was getting the 1680 error, which I am not anymore (replaced by 
   the 500 error). I have left a reply on that post to let them know you are helping
   me here. I looked on Twitter and Facebook and don’t see any posts I have made
   concerning this support issue.

 * Can you try verifying this URL: [http://content.blubrry.com/demo/BanalLeakage-077.m4a](http://content.blubrry.com/demo/BanalLeakage-077.m4a)
   Does this also produce the 500 server error?
 * Are you familiar with how to edit your wp-config.php file?

 * The requested URL returned error 403
 * There is a Test option. Clicking that goes to a page with the following:
 * <Error>
    `AccessDenied` <Message>Access Denied</Message> <RequestId>7C27310A1A0D90C0
   </RequestId><HostId>kMXTKYc+VB3csoLvwlHFE9gr83FP6icNbmhOP1V1eARvRtxIPQeH5Zz/t70OKsGisOWlKMbk7Xs
   =</HostId> </Error>
 * Yes, I am familiar with editing my wp-config.php.

 * Sorry, I should have tested my upload before sending the URL. Please try verifying
   the URL now. [http://content.blubrry.com/demo/BanalLeakage-077.m4a](http://content.blubrry.com/demo/BanalLeakage-077.m4a)
 * In your wp-config.php, please add the following line to the file:
 * `define("WP_DEBUG", true);`
 * Make sure this is added before the require line near the bottom. This will print
   debugging information which may be more helpful than the 500 server error.

 * Still getting 500 Internal server error.
 * Also, added the WP_DEBUG to my wp-config.php before the require line.
 * Is it printing the information to a log file somewhere? When I verify URL, the
   screen looks the same with the error that comes up.

 * The information about PP 5.10 working but the latest not working was very helpful.
   The download logic did not change between these 2 versions, only the getID3 library
   changed.
 * There was a bug in older versions of getid3 when dealing with m4a files with 
   chapters (enhanced podcasts).
 * Do you mind manually installing a development version of PowerPress with the 
   lastst getid3 library? Link: [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/powerpress.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/powerpress.zip)

 * Same 500 Internal Server error, using that development version of the plugin 
   you attached above.
 * FWIW, the podcast I am using doesn’t have chapters.

 * Hello Marty,
 * Again, thank you for indicating that 5.0.10 worked but newer releases do not.
   I have combed over the code differences and have narrowed the problem down to
   2 possibilities. Either something changed in getid3 library (what I suspect) 
   or the code that we changed for setting the getid3 temp folder is the issue.
 * If you can try this latest build, it uses the version of the getid3 library from
   5.0.10. [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/powerpress.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/powerpress.zip)
   Make sure you delete the old zip before downloading this one so you don’t accidentally
   use the previous version.
