ok my first post wasn't very explicit regarding WHERE exactly the code had to be replaced... and anyway there where still a few redundant define( 'YOURBASEPATH', dirname(__FILE__) ); to remove... so here my version of the "blogg-x_server.php" file, that works like a breeze on my site. 1) download the attached file 2) rename it to "blogg-x_server.php" by removing the ".txt" extension 3) in the mambots/blogg-x_2_0/ directory ON YOUR SERVER, rename the "blogg-x_server.php" to "blogg-x_server.php.backup" 4) upload the new "blogg-x_server.php" file to this directory 5) start Blogg-x and enjoy ! ADMIN EDIT: Removed file to eliminate confusion, mato's fixes have been made in the mambot package attached in the post below.

mato... Interesting, I will take a look into this as well. Interesting that it may cause issues on some servers and not others.
Has it helped anyone else that's been experiencing the same problem?
Thanks...

Have installed the file, can verify both FTP and admin settings, but still receive an error saying initial settings cannot be retrieved.

Give the mambot attached below a try. I changed some of the loop logic and fixed all the items that mato pointed out, as well as modified the getdatabase.php file.
NOTE: This mambot only works with Blogg-X 2.12 and isn't backwards compatible to 2.11.
Make sure to unistall the previous version before installing this one.
Please let me know the results!!
Thanks...

satcom... Great! Can you tell me exactly what problems you were having before using the new mambot? No connection at all? Could verify settings, but got "initial settings" error? Anything else?
Thanks...

No luck with the site I have problem with before. But as I said I guess it s a problem with my host since BloggX works with my other site hosted by a different host! ~R

Roger, I don't think I got any information back from the host, I will check the forums again. But that host does have an odd setup, and the Blogg-X mambot is definitely being blocked, just not sure what they have denying access.
Thanks...

Chris, I can ask them directly if you write it for me (I wouldn't know what to ask...) Roger

Hello, Chris. I have been reading this thread and nothing seems to solve my problem. I have a Joomla site running on Siteground. The address is www.luckynth.com. I have installed the latest version of the Mambot (from your site today) and the latest version of the software. I have also altered the filename as instructed in your forum (from 2_0 to 2_12). I still cannot connect. Frustrating, because this looks like what I need. Good work on the concept anyway. Doug

Doug... Sorry about the confusion, the directory name should not be changed, should still be blogg-x_2_0. Try re-installing the mambot then check the file permissions as outlined in the FAQ's and see if that helps.

Thank you for the update Chris, there are no more errors logged on the server side !
But i can't logging with this version...
On the client side, i have this :
- in error.log :
Avoiding obscuring previous error by supressing error encountered while ending request: org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcClientException: Exception closing URLConnection ExecuteRequest server.get_startup_settings
- in output.log :
Error in getStartupSettings function in Joomla10.java file Exception: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Object Error trying to get startup settings ---- Error getting userlevel ----
i hope it is helpfull... i can't do JAVA !

Doug, I'm on Siteground and I found the file permissions were the culprit. Switch them to 755 for the folder and 644 for the files and I got it to work (with the new mambot installed and published).
You might have gotten it already but just in case....
