Ok, my (intranet) site is on win2003 with IIS and behind the company's proxy. Tongue

I can't seem to connect.
I'll try to snif network data out, to see what happens...

It give's me back this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class database in d:\websites\esg\includes\database.php on line 23

Maybe PHP 5 is more strict in the order of declarations in the code than older versions ?

So, I changed the order of the following code in blogg-x_server.php

define( 'BASEPATH', dirname(__FILE__) );
require( BASEPATH . '/../../includes/mambo.php' );
include( BASEPATH . '/../../configuration.php' );
include( BASEPATH . '/../../mambots/blogg-x_2_0/getdatabase.php' );
include( BASEPATH . '/../../mambots/blogg-x_2_0/xmlrpc.inc' );
include( BASEPATH . '/../../mambots/blogg-x_2_0/xmlrpcs.inc' );

Now it gives me back "restricted access" (see below)

Bob... Hmm, I will take a look at the code and see if I can get around "redeclaring" the database class.

Thanks...

I am having the same problem, just downloaded the first time today.  My site is with Aplus.net and all permissions are correct, user ID and passwords verify in Account Settings, Firewall settings are okay. I'll keep checking back for a solution, I'm really looking forward to being able to use this software.  It'll make my life so much easier.

Thx,
Diana

Hi Chris,

I read this topic carrefully, and it seems that my problem has already been solved : ftp and connection tests are ok, but I get error while getting initial settings.
I deleted almost all pre-defined categories (Latest news) and I think that's why it doesn't work.

I saw that your sent a correction release for the mambot in the following reply :
Re: cant' connect
« Reply #18 on: October 07, 2006, 09:59:12 AM »

But my problem is that I cannot find your correction file (nothing attached to the post...) Sad

Could you please tell me where I can get it Huh

Thank you for your help, and congratulation for your gret job !

I'm having the same issue.  I've installed Blogg-X 2.12 for OS X, and when I click on verify username and password, it doesn't do anything.  However, when I click on the ftp settings, it says it's all good in the hood (well, in not so many words any way).

I tried the changing the file and directory permissions, but no dice. 

I have the same version of the Mambot installed, and I'm not behind any proxies.  Please advise.  This tool seems really cool.  It would be real cool to use if it could work (though it's a little weird having an application that resembles an XP program on my very mac desktop  Wink ).

Thanks for your help in advance...

peace,
verasch

bloggx is not working.  I tried it on a fresh Joomla 1.0.12 install and when I try to verify Joomla setting the error.log file on my PC contains the messages below.

Any advice?

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....

You are right. When i change the folder&files access properties, it works properly.

Thanks so much for the great tool.

Having the same problem as most of you. Also using Siteground and Joomla 1.0.12. Went thru all the usual suspects:
1) Installed new mambot version 2.12
2) Changed permissions to 755 folder and 644 all files
3) No proxy
4) Username and password verify fine (has having trouble before changing permissions)

Still I canot connect to the server. What else should I try?
Thanks for any help.

BTW, BloggX looks awesome as a tool. Thanks for the great work, Chris.

I get the same error in the error.log file in Blogg-X\bin:

Avoiding obscuring previous error by supressing error encountered while ending request: org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcClientException: Exception closing URLConnection
java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: connect
   at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method)

...
Avoiding obscuring previous error by supressing error encountered while ending request: org.apache.xmlrpc.XmlRpcClientException: Exception closing URLConnection
ExecuteRequest server.get_startup_settings

(It's really long)

I've read through several threads in the forum and haven't been able to find a solution, although I don't know how to check if my web host is blocking this program or not, which someone had mentioned.

* Permissions are 755 and 644 as instructed.
* I'm using Blogg-X 2.12 and the corresponding mambot.
* I have 32 *'s in the password.
* I'm not using http:// in front of my website URL.
* Register Globals is ON (I can't turn it off because my websites will stop working), it's just how I code.
* I CANNOT sign into FTP (address incorrect or not available) but I can sign on through Windows Explorer with the same settings so I know they're correct.
* My Windows firewall is OFF.  I have a router firewall that wouldn't prevent this from getting out.
* I tried removing that last line of code from the blogg-x_server.php script but it didn't fix anything.
* When I click to verify the login settings for Joomla! nothing happens but I do get "There was an error trying to initialize settings..." when I open Blogg-X or close the Account Settings window.
* I can guarantee that I deleted the Latest News section.  If there were others I deleted, I wouldn't know what they were to add them back in but would be willing to give it a shot if you think that will fix it.
* (I've done everything suggested in the 5-9 posts I read)

That java error looks pretty suspicious but I was never much of a wiz at java.

I'll check back.  I tried Blogg-X about 6 months ago on another computer and couldn't get it to work so I was hoping it would work on my new one.  Until they can make Microsoft's Blog This or Windows Live Writer work with Joomla! (which I was reading maybe Joomla! 1.5?) Blogg-X is my last great hope.  I usually enter blogs in Notepad and update Joomla when I get around to it which is monthly at most.

Looking forward to a fix.  Thanks so much!

Okay, mine is still not working but I had a thought...

Do these problems have something to do with the new Joomla! 1.0.13 version? At least on my end. They totally changed the way passwords are handled.

Thanks in advance...
