Nope, this version of the metaweblog script doesn't fix it yet.
w.bloggar gives another error on almost every action i do: "The categoy functions aren't supported. Specify your category under Blog ID".
I haven't the foggiest idea what that means.
Also, my ecto (1.6, the latest one for windows i believe), doesn't seem to have a console.  |
The category thing came from an error in the getCategory function. Apparently w.bloggar is a little less forgiving than ecto . I've got a new version up which shouldn't have that problem.
Also, to help debug, I've added http://www.rocksandpaper.com/metaweblog_logging.zip which writes all of its output to a file xmlrpc_log.txt. (Be warned that the log file can get pretty big) |

And another step further: I'm getting less errors now, but i can still only fetch entries from 'linkdump', not from 'standard'.
I've been testing with the logfile open, and as far as i can tell, it doesn't return _faulty_ xml, it just doesn't return _anything_. No new entry in the logfile, at least.
Does that ring a bell, or should i try digging deeper?
Also: I'm assuming you wouldn't object if i included your work in pivot 1.30, after it's a bit more fleshed out, won't you.. Of course you'll be credited where appropriate.. _________________ Search the Forum - Pivot Documentation - phpinfo

That's usually the result of a PHP error. Basically it quits and throws back a PHP error message instead of an XML response. Since the error exits the script, it never gets to the point where it logs the response.
I'll look into sending PHP errors to the log file. [Update: PHP doesn't seem to have a reliable mechanism for handling fatal errors. They should, however, show up in your server's error logs]
And if it ever gets to the point where it is working properly, feel free to use it. That's what the GPL is for.  |

For the record!!
I've put up the php file and tried to post a testfile from flickr and got an error. The post is made in pivot, but it isn't rebuilding the frontpage.
Also using w.bloggar the posting is made, but it fails rebuilding the frontpage! _________________ Bakkel´s weblog | weblogforum |

Several people are having that problem. It's a little bit difficult for me to fix because I can't reproduce it -- my front pages rebuild with no problem (in flickr, ecto, and w.bloggar).
I've tried (so far) three different ways of rebuilding front pages (all using existing pivot functions), and the people who were having problems before are still having problems. I'll look into it again when I get some free time.
Also, does flickr actually report the error, or does it report success and then not show up? (If you're actually getting error messages, can you check your server's error logs and let me know what the actual PHP errors are?) |

a quick note from me...
works with w.bloggar out of the box on my domain...
only one snag, this due to the pivot style implementation of categories in pivot, so that instead of choosing which weblog to publish too, you put the category there... pivot is a bit fussy on the category bit _________________ All the juicy stuff is on page three...

on the contrary, i can it treats each category as a weblog... so i choose weblog instead of category...
i'm at work now, but i can put up some screenshots when i get home... _________________ All the juicy stuff is on page three...

| I try to add http://blog.adolvsson.com/pivot/metaweblog.php to my flickr, but all I get is "The username and password you entered do not have any weblogs associated with them." I have checked, double-cheched and re-checked. Username and password is correct. Is there anything else I might have forgotten? Do I need to do something in Pivot? |

Well, the user is the only user and has access to all categories, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I actually don't come that far, since I can't even set up my blog in flickr. |
