I currently use drupal 4.5.2 and while trying out ecto 2.2.2 i ran into a big snag everything is working great except adding images/thumbnails.
I use drupal with Clean URLs enabled
whitch means that valid urls read
http://www.domain/directory/files/image.jpg
and not
http://www.domain/directory/files?file=image.jpg
this breaks the image/thumbnail links posted by ecto once they are on the site.
ecto gets the URLs from Drupal(via http://www.domain/path/xmlrpc.php) so...
why is drupal telling Ecto links should be formatted http://www.domain/directory/files?file=image.jpg
when i am using clean url's?
and how can i change that behavior in drupal so I could use ecto?

blogapi and ecto
I have been trying to post with attachments (images) with ecto, without success. If you want to see how well this can work with Drupal, the fastest is to install another version (don't forget the db prefix in conf.php) and the simplest download for a packaged version is at:
< http://james.seng.cc/wiki/wiki.cgi?Drupal_For_Bloggers >
this is based on 4.4.
I made 4.5.2 work (a little) by inserting a line to insert the mysql db entry that corresponds to the xmlrpc url return value in blogapi's newmediaobject, I haven't been able to find a description of how this was intended to work, though.
The problem with Drupal for
The problem with Drupal for Bloggers is it is missing out on the UI enhancements for 4.5, the security enhancements and the lack of a direct upgrade path. Pity about the fork.

seems to me that when clean urls is checked whatever formats the url and/or outputs it to xmlrpc.php isn't doing it's full job. but where does one submit a bug like this? is there a clean urls project or a project that deals with creation of xmlrpc.php? or do i send it as a bug for just drupal in general?
For core modules, submit
For core modules, submit against drupal core.

ecto and drupal
I get ' a list of blog could not be retrieved, please verify my settings' I have. Naturally I cannot post with ecto either. This is both on my client test engine, and on remote server. An actual example of my Access point (XML) is:
http://localhost/~'user'/drupal-4.5.2/?q=blog/feed/1
(I'm on Drupal v.4.5.2)
Any suggestions?

Wrong access point
The access point is always http://www.example.com/xmlrpc.php
The handbook instructions for w.bloggar are similar enough that you should be able to figure it out for ecto.

OK got it.
OK Got it. Thanks for your replies and sorry I didn't pick up the instruction from a search. It makes a very real difference to my choice of engine for personal use. I have been testing drupal alongside two others in the past four days. I highly favour drupal at the moment, and this should clinch it.
