biotechbuzz Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 (edited) Hi All- I am having a problem uploading images via ecto and so far have not had any luck on the ecto or Wordpress forums. Hopefully someone here might be able to provide some advice. I can upload images just fine using the default, browser-based Wordpress editor. My images are set to upload to the default directory (wp-content/uploads). However, whenever I try to upload an image (alone or within a post) using ecto, I get the following error: Parsing Failure! Could not parse response for file upload. Please check the console log for more information. When I check the console log, I obtain the following in the "Response" area: Response: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <TITLE>406 Not Acceptable</TITLE> </HEAD><BODY> <H1>Not Acceptable</H1> An appropriate representation of the requested resource /blog/xmlrpc.php could not be found on this server.<P> </BODY></HTML> Can anyone recommend what I might be able to do to get this to work? By the way, this is in reference to biotechbuzz.com, but it is also a problem on another blog that I run. Thanks in advance for any advice that you can provide!

TCH-Thomas Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 Welcome to the forum, biotechbuzz. I had never heard of Ecto before your post, but after some searching I found a post at: http://ecto.kung-foo.tv/archives/001602.php which is indicating this should work. This seems to have been a big problem for many before WP version 2.x so, if you are using anything less than the latest version of wp, I would definately recommend you to upgrade as soon as possible.

biotechbuzz Posted July 9, 2006 Author Posted July 9, 2006 Thanks, Tom. I had looked at that thread previously and, unfortunately, I am still having the problem despite using Wordpress 2.03.

TCH-Bruce Posted July 10, 2006 Posted July 10, 2006 Welcome to the forums biotechbuzz Did you try what the commenter said he did? I figured it out. Using the WP 2.0 xmlrpc.php (not beta), I had to change the permissions on my /wp-content/uploads/ directory to 777. After that it worked. Quote
