Well I did that and no real joy. I do get a different error message though saying that Journler was unable to retrieve Categories.

Thanks for all of your time.[/quote]
Can you please give me your setup. That is what is the format of the two URL's that are required, for the blog and for the xml-rpc file?
thanks |

Apperently there is no one to even try to guess what is going on here. I have spent way too much time trying to figure it out from my end. I truly appreciate the help the EvanAgee tried to give me -- but to no avail.
I have learned that the xmlrpc interface is one that attackers like to use. As such my hosting service, whom I am very happy with and have given me outstanding service for many years and for several web sites, controls this interface.
Consequently, having received no help and having spent a lot of time, I have decided that discretion is the better part of valor and and terminating my short-lived association with Journler.
Please don't bother to reply for as soon as I submit this message I am going to uninstall Journler and remove all traces of it from my computer. |

Well of course I'm going to reply after reading something like this.

By "anyone" what exactly do you mean? And "no" help? EvanAgee offered all the help he could. Were you expecting help from someone on the Journler team? Let me make a couple of points.
1. There is no Journler team. I am a single person trying to handle a massive project with daily emails, requests, bugs and complaints.
2. I am not an expert on every aspect of what Journler does, by no means blogging. I have kept silent, happy that someone who knows more than me is willing to offer help.
3. I'm some eight time zones away from my home right now, at WWDC, learning, as it were, ways to improve Journler. I cannot address every problem when I am away from my computer, without a laptop, emailing and posting to the forum on my lunch break and during the fifteen minutes between sessions.

If your servers don't properly support the xml-rpc interface, then this is NOT a Journler problem. This is a problem with your servers. Journler explicitly requires an xml-rpc interface for blog posts. Don't ask the program to do something it doesn't know how to do and then complain when it can't do it.
Which is not to say this isn't a Journler problem. Blogging is not Journler's main focus. Journler is 1) an offline notebook 2) an information manager and 3) a blogger. Blogging comes last.
If you are looking for a quality blogging program, try MarsEdit, Ecto or iWeb. Journler integrates with iWeb and may be able to do so with the others via AppleScript. |

Your time is wasted? You were working on solving a problem that would improve your life in some small way. It didn't work, no big deal. I spent my time researching a problem that I wasn't experiencing myself because I was hoping to help out someone that was devoted to using this wonderful application. Now that you've (to use a Big Brother All Stars term) "thrown Journler under the bus" because you believe it doesn't interface with xmlrpc correctly you've officially labeled all of the time I spent on researching your problem as "WASTED". I appreciate that.
For the record, Journler is not at fault here. Despite Phil's apologies Journler is doing nothing wrong here, it's your paranoid host (I know, I work for a hosting company) that's causing the problem here. So, if you want to abandon Journler for another app (that will have the same problem no less) be my guest. |

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what this means?
XML-RPC Fault: 2
Fault message: Error parsing request: Malformed request: framework.ResourceNotFoundException: Invalid object reference.
I'm trying to post a test entry to a Squarespace blog (http://www.squarespace.com) but with no luck so far. Their help documentation is clear about what information to input and I followed it exactly.
Any ideas please?
Thanks |

| Are you sure that Squarespace allows posting via XMLRPC? If not I would check with someone on their end and find out, that's the best place to start. I'm not familiar with Squarespace or this problem. |

Hi EvanAgee,
On their FAQ pages they say they allow posting via XML-RPC and give the information I need to input. I'm checking with them and they're trying to help me too.
Thanks |
