Rich: Thanks for letting me know. It turns out the upgrade I did on my server last night to php 5.2.2 broke the xmlrpc webservice.

It turns out php 5.2.2 has a nasty bug which leads to $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA never being set which breaks most PHP xmlrpc and soap implementations out there!

It’s now all fixed.

I am seeing the XML-RPC Error:-32700:parse error. not well formed message again, but I am running with version 1.7 of class-IXR.php which was the fix that had previously been suggested. This is standard in WP 2.2.1 install. This just started happenning in the last two days, and I have not updated anything on my server during those days.

Any suggestions on what I should look at would be appreciated. I am still new to WP, but I am not afraid of a bit of code. My sources are unmodified at this point, other than the import plugin code I had to modify to import my wife’s blogger blog, as the standard ones did not work for a custom server or handle the images properly. In general I have been quite happy, but I am still running into little weirdnesses.

Hi artistique. I’m not sure the exact cause of that error.

However other users have found that if they update to the class-IXR.php from the current WordPress trunk then this error is fixed so I recommend you try that.

In the area where the version is supposed to show up, I get an error “XML-RPC Error:-32300:transport error - could not open socket…” Any idea what that might be, or how to fix?

Thanks!
