XML Parsing error on image upload

  • Unknown's avatar

    Suddenly blog desk stopped working for me. Nothing has changed with the Blog Desk, so I’m guessing something might have changed on WP’s End.

    BlogDesk was successfully uploading images inline with my entries, with the caveat that the images took a day or three to show up on all the mirrors. However it was working, now upon trying to upload an entry with inline images I immediately get and error that reads:

    An error occurred while uploading the post.
    Error uploading images
    XML Parsing Error: Invalid procedure call or argument

    …and nothing shows up on WP.

    FWIW, Uploading a test entry with text only still uploads fine.

    Anyone have an ideas?

    Thanks,
    Jon

    Help anyone? Is anyone successfully uploading images via XML (external client). I’d at least like to know if I’m alone in my problems.

    You are not alone as I too seem to be having this issue. Hope it gets fixed soon or someone responds here :)

    I also posted about this over on the BlogDesk forums.

    http://forum.blogdesk.org/viewtopic.php?t=169

    Although it does seem like something changed or broke on the WP side since no changes were made to Blogdesk’s software recently.

    Maybe this is the accidental result of fixing the mirroring problem for images uploaded via XML? Just a thought since I thought I saw a thread suggesting that might have been fixed.

    jb… I saw your thread there as well. This just started for me today, and I have never uploaded a picture with blogdesk before… so am awaiting with baited breath, the answer from either forum ;)

    For me it’s not working….images or text posts

    I installed the program the other day and setting it up when it asked for the blog id I had no idea what to enter, so when I clicked the button to the right, it found nothing and came back with the error msg “XML Parsing Error Invalid procedure Call or Argument”

    I’ve looked several places on this forum and not found an answer. If I’m not looking hard enough, if someone will point me in the right direction I’d appreciate it. Thanks…

    Using MS XP OS if that makes a difference.

    Did you enter the endpoint?

    It’s your blog address with xmlrpc.php appended to the end.

    So mine is http://dark2light.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php

    There appears to be a general issue with XMLRPC on WordPress.com since the weekend. Both Flock Blog Post tool and LouderVoice review publishing are unable to post.

  • I’m looking into this.

  • The source of the problem has been found and fixed.

    Thanks Joseph! LouderVoice now working perfectly again.
