XMLRPC Error 503

    Everything was fine until the last few of days, since which time whenever I try to publish from Live Writer I get:

    The server reported an error with the following web address:

    http://www.diaryofanadi.co.uk/xmlrpc.php

    503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

    I cannot immediately see any reference to this problem other than historical, but in the last week or so I have updated WP and Jetpack.

    Is anyone else experiencing it, or is it a known issue at the moment?

    did you find a solution to this? i am wondering if this is related to

    either of the following:
    upgrading to wordpress 3.6 from 3.4.x
    upgrading jetpack.

    either way, it broke my Windows Live Writer and my IFTTT and I am very upset.

    I keep seeing posts saying it can be related to xmlrpc.php, perhaps my host is blocking it….

    I also see posts about xml-rpc being enabled by default….

    I also see posts about maintenance mode….

    I can’t find a solution as of yet, since i have no .maintenance file in my root. my .htaccess file has not been changed. So I am a bit clueless for now. If I do find something, I will post it here. Hopefully if you do, you post here as well and we can get through this.

    I also reached out to my webhost to see if they got anything on their end they can look at.

    Well, I also did both of those things – I suspect it was one of those that did the damage.

    I have noticed that although the 503 error is reported, drafts are posted to my blog (most of the time) from WLW – but it is messy.

    I also notice that if I post the draft several times, it turns up as a separate post each time in the WP control panel.
