Hi,

I am looking forward to use this new feature. But for the moment, I am stucked.
While using JoomlaPack Remote, I receive the following message when trying to get profile:

Could not connect to server. The error message was:Invalid payload received from xml-rpc server

Tabs 1 Basic
domain/xmlrpc/index.php port:80
user is super admin
Tab 2 Downloads
Test ==> Connection established
Tab 3&4 not using Proxy

Any help welcome.

Thanks,
Alain

I assume you are using JoomlaPack remote since this is the only that this error is able to work. I do remember this happening in the SVN releases. I believe it was because you need to go into Global Configuration and enable web services. 9 out of 10 times this was the issue. Please let me know if this works or not.

Thank you

FANTASTIC!

Backup done successfully

I am using JoomlaPack since the beginning and ... I am impressed by the quality of the improvements.

I am not sure how to manage the profiles, but haven't read the doc yet.

But I DID read the JoomlaPack Remote Doc and haven't seen any note concerning the web service. I suggest you to upgrade the document ;)

Thank you very much for the good work.

Regards,
Alain

One more quick question!

Where does JoomlaPack Remote keep the Site settings?

I don't find them back the directory in which the application was started.

Thanks,
Alain

You mean the information per site? Like the settings for each site?

This is for Windows XP

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\JoomlaPack Remote

That was it!

Did I miss the info in the documentation ;)

Thanks!

Autant pour moi :?

Ok, I admit, I read it ... quickly ;) Web Service found, but in this case I meant the info about "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\JoomlaPack Remote" ...

Thanks.

ah sorry. Umm I am not sure if that is the documentation. I can talk to our documentation group leader to see if that can be added but it will be different for each Operating System.

No problem! Now that I know it, I don't need the info anymore...
I am thinking of the next users ;)

I am having the same problem with the remote control. I can backup by the backend but can't by RC.

Since you have the same problem, did you try the same solution posted in the first page of this thread?

Yes
web services on for both other and inner sites.
url to XML-RPC http://www.domain.com/joomlainstall/xmlrpc/index.php
UN PW is right
get profile button gives "Invalid payload received from xml-rpc server"
download options first two.
FTP test passed.
Backs up by hand.

config file: var $xmlrpc_server = '1';

xml-rpc folder permission 744, 705 in.

Try visiting http://www.yoursite.com/xmlrpc/index.php from your browser. You should receive an error of "XML error: no element found at line 1, column 0". If you receive any other error, you have a problem with your site setup. In this case you should first make sure that you have the xmlrpc directory's files and then check your .htaccess file for any rules which could be disabling access to that directory.

If you receive that exact error I mentioned, make sure that:
1. The Web Services is enabled in Joomla!'s Global Configuration
2. You have installed Akeeba Backup 3.1.5
3. You have installed plg_jpremote version 3.1.b2. If unsure, install it again.
4. You have published plg_jpremote (it installs as unpublished by default)

Please send me a Personal Message with your site's URL and Super Administrator login credentials so that I can debug it from here. Please remember to paste the URL back to this thread when sending a PM. Otherwise, I will have no idea whatsoever why you are sending me the PM for. Thanks!
