Windows Live Writer offline blogging software – Error

Asked By shirleytjensen 30 points N/A Posted on - 08/11/2012

I was using Windows Live Writer offline blogging software when I received this error message. My log-in information is assigned to be encrypted because my WordPress settings force SSL on admin pages.

Nevertheless, my SSL certificate is not trusted since what I use is a self-signed certificate. How can I connect again to my blog?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Windows Live Writer

Can't connect to your blog service:

Network Connection Error – Error attempting to connect to blog at:

https://www.calazan.com/nbx-call-reports-problem-retrieving-records-from-the-nbx/

The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust

relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel.

Please try fixing the problem and then try again.

                                                                                  OK

How do I change the trust settings?

Windows Live Writer offline blogging software – Error

Hello Shirley,

If you have been able to use this offline blogging software successfully before, then you should try the following fixes:

•  Go to the Proxy settings and there set it to manual. After that you will need to add your blogging account after your name my blog name – you will need to do that even if you have a domain name – and then try connecting. That should fix the problem.
• If you are still having this issue, try the following workaround:
  • First, you will need to get rid of the WordPress.com blog from Windows Live Writer and then add it again.
  • You will need to ensure that you have got enough space to upload images. You can verify that by checking from Media >> Media Library.
  • After that you should attempt publishing a post without images or just a few small images to see if it works.

Regards,

Carl
