XML-RPC timeouts

  • We have a site that has been experiencing a significant number of timeouts when attempting to create new posts via the XML-RPC API. It had been working fine for years in processing hundreds of posts per day. But for the past 6+ weeks only a small fraction (sometimes none) of the requests complete, and all the others time out.

    The site is hosted in a multi-instance Azure web site using a ClearDB MySQL instance. The service that uses the API to create posts runs separately and posts serially (API calls never overlap).

  • Hello EdKaim,

    Try checking your PHP logs for additional clues.Enabling debugging may provide a more detailed error:

    Also, disabling mod_security is a good test. I recommend re-enabling it after you are finished testing.

    Hope this helps,

    @edkaim any news on this topic ? I have exactly the same problem.

    I use XMLRPC to upload a image and publish an article.

    After the 2nd publication I get timeouts and the frontend (my normal wordpress website) is not reachable anymore.

    I am using Java XMLRPC client.
