 * Hi all,
 * I’m trying to use the Campaign Monitor Synchronization plugin with a new list
   i’ve created specifically to gather e-mails from the website…. and i’m getting
   the following error :
 * Campaign Monitor synchronization error.
    Failed to deserialize your request. 
   Please check the documentation and try again.Fields in error: subscribers
 * I’m using wordpress 3.8.1 with WooCommerce and also have the ‘User Role Editor’
   plugin activated to create a few user roles…
 * Can this be due to incompatibility issues ? Is there anything that can help me
   debugging this ? Please let me know if further information is required ! Thanks
   for all the help anyone can give!

 * I guess there is some data in ‘subscribers’ that breaks the json. What is stored
   in the field ‘subscribers’? can you disable this field in the plugin options 
   and try again?

 * I’m getting this error too.
 * I don’t check any fields, and the “subscribers” isn’t even on that list.

 * The previous error is fixed with the update you just pushed. But now its giving
   me this error:
 * `Fatal error: Error making request with curl_error: Operation timed out after
   10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received`
    originating from transport.php – line
   158

 * Hi kakashigr,
 * Seems done. We did not increase the version number, so you need to de-install
   the plugin and install it again.
 * The SVN commit only updated a few files, so it was incomplete. In the meantime
   we have no idea if this problem caused your bug. Please let me know.
 * Cheers, Carlo

 * Hi kakashigr,
 * I am very sorry you experience these problems. Could you please upgrade to 1.0.8
   now?
 * Thanks a lot for you patience, Carlo

 * I’m afraid I still get the error
 * `Fatal error: Error making request with curl_error: Operation timed out after
   10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received`
 * thats on my VPS.
 * On my localhost, I get name or service not found after waiting for a long time
   each time.

 * Hi kakashigr,
 * Is Curl enabled on your servers, localhost and VPS? It seems more like a server
   related error.

 * Hi kakashi,
 * If you don’t know how to do it (check if curl is installed or not), please follow
   this tutorial to create a phpinfo.php file that will show you what you have (
   and have not installed) on your server :
 * [https://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/764/How+can+I+create+a+phpinfo.php+page%3F#gs](https://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/764/How+can+I+create+a+phpinfo.php+page%3F#gs)
 * It’s linked to mediatemple website but its instructions are pretty much generic…
   As soon as you’ve done the phpinfo file and upload it to the server, please open
   the file in the browser and try to locate the following ::
 * ‘cURL support : enabled ‘ … if it shows disabled, then it’s bad news for you 
   and you need to yum curl back to php!
 * yummy! 🙂 hope this helps!

 * Lena suggests: Maybe it is not cURL but some host that can’t be resolved or something
   like that, some DNS resolving error

 * kakashi,
 * Maybe you could give us access to a public server. We are happy to help you.
