Can't add blog due to XML-RPC service not found

[CatsAreGods]

Hi,

This is weird because I have three virtually identical blogs on the same server. Two of them set up with no problems, the third gives me the above error (and yes, it's turned on...). I believe the only difference is that on this blog I haven't installed the WPtouch plugin; all other plugins and settings are the same. I'm using the just-updated 1.1 version with the just-updated 2.0.1 firmware update from Apple.

Thanks in advance.

You're RSD points to  http://scott-m.net/xmlrpc.php?rsd which returns a web page instead of an XML-RPC response.

I looked at your pages source code, and for some reason it has to EditURI alt tags:
<link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href=" http://scott-m.net/xmlrpc.php?rsd" />
and
<link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href=" http://catreligion.org/xmlrpc.php?rsd" />

The application appears to be selecting the first one (on scott-m.net, which isn't a 'real' domain). I would check your theme and make sure it is not hard coded in the header or somewhere else, or grep the entire install directory for 'scott-m' and see where it is.

But anyways, this doesn't appear to be a bug in the code (although we may want to have some check that throws a specific error when more than EditURI tag is found)

based on other feedback this appears to be impacting a few themes out there which have incorrect RSD values.

I updated the FAQ with steps to check for a valid RSD / xmlrpc file:  http://iphone.wordpress.org/faq/

closing out.
