   I received this message every time I try to log in. I need to go through a login and password, that I set them in advance configuration but I can't login.

   Would your give me a hand? Thanks

   From looking at your site, it appears that you don't need the HTTP auth to access http://decabo.com/blog/xmlrpc.php - have you tried without the auth settings set?

   It seemed a good idea mrroundhill, but didn't work... if I have the HTTP auth for the .htaccess - .htpasswd, it should work.... any other suggestion??

   I tried to ping your XML-RPC endpoint using an xmlrpc debugger and got the same error, full details here:

   Make sure that xml-rpc services are enabled on your blog, and if this doesn't help i suggest you to contact the web hosting provider help desk.

   Thanks daniloercoli. I have checked the wordpress options and xml-rpc is activated. I will try to find something following this patch, maybe I have to configure something in my server... Any other help is welcomed! thanks all
