Everything's working fine in my installation, except for posting new stories via ScribeFire using the BlogAPI. When I try to, it's giving me this error:
"Error: The server returned an HTTP 406 status code
URL: http://explodicide.com/xmlrpc.php"

I know that the username / password is correct, the file is there, and the script is at least running, not just crashing out when opened in a browser. The BlogAPI module is turned on, and configured to allow posting of stories.

I'd try another external application, but I can't seem to find any blog client apps that will work with Wine in Linux. All that I've found are based off the .Net framework, or ActiveX plugins. :P

I'm trying to set up ScribeFire (2.2.9) or Google Docs to work with my Drupal (6.2) site but when I try to set up the account I get the ScribeFire error message "The server returned a malformed response. Please check that your blog and API URLs are correct." In Google Docs it simply says an error was encountered and they will look into.

During the ScribeFire set up process I do the following: I select manual configuration, I select Drupal from the blog system type, I replace "myserver" with my domain name so the result is: http://subdomain.domain.com/xmlrpc.php, then type in my username and password.

I have ScribeFire and Google Docs set up with other blogs and both work fine so I think I must be doing something wrong within Drupal. ?

I have the BlogApi and the Blog modules enabled and have activated blog content.

Found the solution - in my case it was a theme issue - but I show how to debug it here to find the problem - good luck.

Not quite sure how to check for this in Drupal, I can't quite seem to find a way to export the XML, or view it somehow. Then again, it's 4:30am, and I'm dead tired at work. so who knows.

Rename xmlrpc.php to something else e.g. blogapi.php :)
