Jetpack showing error xml_rpc-32700

Hi!

As that line states, your xmlrpc.php file needs to display only: “XML?RPC server accepts POST requests only”, but I see errors in your xmlrpc.php file. It suggests that some plugin, theme, or wp-config.php file in your WordPress has extra “whitespace” (new lines, spaces, tabs, …) before the first “<?php” in the file. This problem is another symptom of a more common problem: the “Headers already sent” problem: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_do_I_solve_the_Headers_already_sent_warning_problem.3F

Can you check your wp-config.php, theme files, and plugins for such whitespace?

Hi
Richard
Can you show me the detail way to get out of this? Because I just love this plugin and except this am not going to try any thing else. But I don’t know how to solve this, sorry am not a master in programming languages.

So kindly make it ease for me.

Thank you.

Hi,

The link I pointed you to does give some information on how to check for whitespace in your varying files. Try those instructions, and let me know if there’s anything that’s giving you trouble in particular.

You may also want to contact your webhost about the first error here:

https://www.infagalaxo.com/xmlrpc.php

Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/infagala/public_html/wp-includes/load.php on line 278

That is also affecting Jetpack’s connection.

hi @richard same problem for me
https://lifeofinterests.com/xmlrpc.php
and the solution in that link did not help

the problem can be solved my just inserting

if ( defined( 'XMLRPC_REQUEST' ) )
		ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );

in /** */
ur code will look like

/**
if ( defined( 'XMLRPC_REQUEST' ) )
		ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );
*/

hope this helps.

HI
@lifeofinterests

I have one doubt where I will find this code and can change it?

its on line 278 in load.php

Open your website control panel . I am using Cpanel , if you are using the same well and good it’s easy for me to explain. Browse through /home/yourdomainname/public_html/wp-includes/load.php path. Now we have to edit load.php file. There is a small change in the 278 line. In Cpanel you don’t have number lines for the code. So do what I say, Press ctrl+f to open search box. Type xmlrpc in the search box. You will be directly taken to the line will we have to edit. You will see the following code.

if ( defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ ) )
ini_set( ‘display_errors’, 0 );

this code should be kept in the comments. After adding the comments the code should look like the below..

/**
if ( defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ ) )
ini_set( ‘display_errors’, 0 );
*/

Save the changes. Now go to dashboard and try to connect with wordpress.com site. You will definitely get connected with the wordpress.com site and both the problems will be solved.

If you test the https://yourdomain.com/xmlrpc.php URL it should display the following message in one line.
XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only.
It should look the small when you open with your domain URL. If all is well then after installing jetpack you will see this pic live with your site. Hope this will help you.

You are right,, @lifeofinterests It worked,,
Thanks a lot, for making it happen,,,,

Sir,
kindly change the topic to resolved.

Done!

@lifeofinterests

Excellent! That worked!

If it doesn’t work for anybody, I’d suggest looking up the plugin support page for basic requirements and plugin conflicts.

Hello! Sorry to start this topic up again but I was having the very same issues…

https://www.miseducated.net/xmlrpc.php

I tried inserting the part above as stated and it didn’t take my error away. I also have another one that seems like it’d be an easy fix.. I hope?

Thank you so much for reading!

@amberrenee If the fix above didn’t help, I would suggest that you contact your hosting provider to let them know about the issue. They should be able to help you out.

I’m having the same issue. I commented out the above code and it didn’t help. Here is my error.

Error Details: The Jetpack server could not communicate with your site’s XML-RPC URL. Please check to make sure https://ncfmaryland.org/xmlrpc.php is working properly. It should show ‘XML?RPC server accepts POST requests only.’ on a line by itself when viewed in a browser and should not have any blank links or extra output anywhere.

It happens after I install the plugin and try to connect to wordpress.com
