Today I changed my ISP to PTCL from Link Dot Net and when I started publishing my blog posts via Windows Live Writer I started having the error
Error attempting to connect to blog at:
www.senseapplied.com/xmlrpc.php
The operation has timed out
I was furious as I was able to upload the blog posts through and still able to post through my Cellular connection but not through my DSL provider .
I tried many things , including editing XMLRPC.php , not recommended , if you have dine it m reinstall WP 2.7 it’s quick and easy .
I also tried resizing my pics , no use
I also tried uploading via Pics FTP , they did uploaded but the problem prevails , the blog post also got published but my Twitter update through Windows Live Writer and TinyURL was not working so finally after looking around I did the following
I posted .htaccess file in /WP main directory , in /WP/wp-content and also in Root directory, i have no clue which one did the trick but now Windows Live Writer is able to publish blog posts without problem and also let the pics upload through FTP
I’m attaching the file for you to copy and install .
P.S if you already have .htaccess file in the directory simply add the following lines to it
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
This will do the trick
