WLW and WordPress Invalid Server Response
I have been trying to use Windows Live Writer Beta 2 to post to my wordpress blog but to no avail!
I’d keep getting this error:
Windows Live Writer was not able to automatically detect your blog: Invalid Server Response – The response to the blogger.getUsersBlogs method received from the weblog server was invalid: Invalid response document returned from XmlRpc server
I have just found this solution; add to .htaccess file
<Files xmlrpc.php>
SecFilterInheritance Off
</Files>
Done! It’s all good now.

Alpesh,
I too had same problem. For configuring WLW its asking the path fro xmlrpc.php file. What do I give here?
http:////xmlrpc.php
I have added the code you have given to .htaccess file.
Please help me.

Не помогает этот ваш код, после его вставки в .htaccess сайт вобще перестал работать.
