I’m also having the same “We have encountered…” error message show up. Some people have upgraded or reinstalled WP and had it work. So far I have not, no matter what I try.

Some people who have had luck:

Yeah, I see that page fine. Got it set up for MovableTypeAPI and everything. I remember trying this a few months ago and the posts would sometimes go through but it would always return an error. So it continues to say “This document has not been published to your blog” and returns an error even if the blog (sometimes) gets published. :-/

It looks like an error on their side, E. Be sure you have the correct address to your xmlrpc.php file… other than that, it’s probably a technical issue on the Google side.

To test your xmlrpc.php location, just put it in your browser:
http://www.douglaskarr.com/xmlrpc.php

You should get an error stating: “XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only.” That means that it’s up and ready! This is the same file that accepts trackbacks as well.

This isn’t working for me. When I press Test it says “We have encountered an error, which we will investigate immediately. Sorry for the inconvenience.”
