Title: Jetpack Publicize Error code: -32301 Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Jetpack Publicize Error code: -32301 * [Gail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gail65/) * (@gail65) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-publicize-error-code-32301/) * Hi. I decided to set up Jetpack’s Publicize module for my Facebook and Twitter accounts, but whenever I click on either of those buttons, I get this message at the top of the screen: * Something which should never happen, happened. Sorry about that. If you try again, maybe it will work. * Error code: -32301 * I could really use some help resolving this issue. My blog is here: * [http://dappledthings.me](http://dappledthings.me) * Thanks. 🙂 * [http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * Plugin Author [Jeremy Herve](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jeherve/) * (@jeherve) * Jetpack Mechanic 🚀 * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-publicize-error-code-32301/#post-4080448) * Jetpack and other services use a file named xmlrpc.php to communicate with your site. Unfortunately, that file doesn’t seem to be publicly accessible on your site: [http://dappledthings.me/xmlrpc.php](http://dappledthings.me/xmlrpc.php) * If you use a security plugin that may block access to the file, you will need to configure the plugin to allow XML-RPC access. * If you do not use such plugin, I would recommend that you contact your hosting provider and ask them if they currently block access to your site’s XML-RPC file. * Let me know if it helps. * Thread Starter [Gail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gail65/) * (@gail65) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-publicize-error-code-32301/#post-4080498) * Jeremy, * Thanks for your response. I noticed you responded to a similar post earlier, but the error code was a little different. Can you tell me what the drawbacks would be to allowing XML-RPC access? Before I do anything, I would like to know if it would represent a security threat, etc. Thanks again! * Plugin Contributor [Richard Archambault](https://wordpress.org/support/users/richardmtl/) * (@richardmtl) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-publicize-error-code-32301/#post-4080599) * Hi Gail, * The xmlrpc file did have vulnerabilities in the past (fixed long ago), as you can read about on this very old post: * [http://digwp.com/2009/06/xmlrpc-php-security/](http://digwp.com/2009/06/xmlrpc-php-security/) * I am not aware of any current vulnerabilities in the file. As Jeremy said, if you want to use Jetpack, access to that file abosultely needs to be available. * [9ete](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hawkeye126/) * (@hawkeye126) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/jetpack-publicize-error-code-32301/#post-4080711) * Adding the allows fixed this for me * Order Deny,Allow Deny from all #Allow from x.x. x.

The error code I’m getting is -32300 * I had already established a successful connection to LinkedIn a long time ago, but today WordPress told me there were problems. So I disconnected Jetpack from LinkedIn and tried to reconnect again, unsuccessfully. * I am a newbie when it comes to code.
