PrimaryBlogger updates

Posted on by primaryt

We had scheduled some PrimaryBlogger maintenance time in tonight to update the file system and that meant that some admin pages would not be available. We didn’t expect a) it would take so long, b) it would be so disruptive, c) teachers would still be adding posts to their blogs at 22:30.. We have put it off till midnight when it will start again..

Apologies!

WordPress mobile error: “the target server failed to respond”

Posted on by primaryt

When joining a new mobile device to wordpress it looks like the first request is a GET request.

My Varnish config only included support for POST requests to xmlrpc.php

I updated my config to read:

// set backend, pipe, strip cookies from xmlrpc 
  if (req.request == "POST" && req.url ~ "xmlrpc.php") {remove req.http.cookie;set req.backend = mainserver;return(pipe);}
  if (req.request == "GET" && req.url ~ "xmlrpc.php") {remove req.http.cookie;set req.backend = mainserver;return(pipe);}

and it sorted it! Huraa
