I have a WordPress site running on OpenLiteSpeed, and accessing XMLRPC with cURL like:
curl --data @hello.txt https://gateblogs.com/xmlrpc.php
with the correct info in hello.txt
, returns:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<methodResponse>
<params>
<param>
<value>
<string>Hello!</string>
</value>
</param>
</params>
</methodResponse>
but, Jetpack Debugger gives me a Communication error. I don’t get this because XMLRPC obviously works, and Jetpack worked with Apache, so I know none of my plugins are blocking it.
I also used:
curl -A ‘Jetpack by WordPress.com’ -is -H ‘Content-Type: text/xml’ --data ‘<?xml version=“1.0”?><methodCall><methodName>demo.sayHello</methodName><params></params></methodCall>’ ‘https://gateblogs.com/xmlrpc.php’ && echo
Apache(what works) returned: 0; path=COOKIEPATH Set-Cookie: QnKVvgyjBb=e4x5FOl1S%40; expires=Wed, 28-Mar-2018 15:06:28 GMT; Max-Age=3600; path=COOKIEPATH X-LiteSpeed-Cache-Control: no-cache Vary: Accept-Encoding Expect-CT: max-age=604800, report-uri=“https://report-uri.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/beacon/expect-ct” Server: cloudflare CF-RAY: 402aa831dc789248-EWR

The only difference I see is the second Set-Cookie for Litespeed

Hi @realNerdOfLinux,
I believe the answer is a bit easier than what you are trying to do. Are you sure Jetpack has access to your server and especially this file?
I’ll recommend to first allow access to the file. To do so, open your .htaccess file in your website
If you don’t want to allow access to the whole world, you can allow just JetPack’s IP addresses. To do you’ll just need to do the following
You’ll need to change XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX with Jepack’s IP address.
The other solution might be just allowing the JetPack’s IP addresses in your server’s Firewall.
