 * hello
 * I am getting this error after updating today to 2.7.
 * Mailchimp says: API Request Error – API is failing – try again. on 2203 in /home/
   u179704334/domains/oxfordtefl.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/mailchimp-for-
   woocommerce/includes/api/class-mailchimp-api.php

 *  ******************************
 * It looks like it is going to connect but then, it says try again.
 * I have try with your support team, with no results.
    They say it is a problem
   with permissions, but I execute all the permissions and still having this problem.
 * it is driving me crazy.
 * Can you help?
 * Otherwise, maybe I should go back to an older version, because this is a problem
   with THIS version 2.7
 * thanks in advanced,
 * gaby

 * Hi [@mgdiazanton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgdiazanton/),
 * Can you please look through this wiki [article](https://github.com/mailchimp/mc-woocommerce/wiki/Troubleshooting-CURL-Errors)
   and see if this is the problem?
 * We’re not really sure of how this particular error would be happening on 2.7 
   vs. 2.6.2 because this is directly related to the CURL API requests being made
   and the HTTP status code was not greater than 99… which means the request didn’t
   succeed.
 * I would also recommend possibly trying to set the [outbound IP](https://github.com/mailchimp/mc-woocommerce/wiki/Configuration-for-outbound-IP-address)
   address on your install to see if this resolves the problem.
 * Thanks!

 * [@mgdiazanton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgdiazanton/) just following
   up to see if you were able to add this [line](https://github.com/mailchimp/mc-woocommerce/wiki/Configuration-for-outbound-IP-address)
   of code to your wp-config and if it resolved your issue?

 * [@mgdiazanton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgdiazanton/) if setting that
   value to your site’s IP address doesn’t resolve it, we’ve got a confirmation 
   from someone who has your same exact problem that setting that config specific
   to this solved the problem.
 * `define( 'MAILCHIMP_USE_OUTBOUND_IP', false );`
 * Please let us know if this does the trick for you too!`

 * Hi [@mgdiazanton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mgdiazanton/), if you haven’t
   already resolved, the v2.7.1 version of the plugin should clear up this issue.
   Please let us know if you’re still having any problems and we’ll be glad to try
   some other troubleshooting steps with you.

 * Hi khungate,
 * I just solved it yestarday.
    I had the help of a developer. We tried your suggestions
   but any of them worked.
 * It seems it was a problem with cloudfare. At the end just turning off the cloudfare
   and loading again the page, connected the plugin to the store.
    So we turned 
   on cloudfare again and it was allright, except that it got stuck syncing the 
   store. I added &resync=1 to the page, and it got solved, as it says in here in
   one of the messages: [https://github.com/mailchimp/mc-woocommerce/issues/441](https://github.com/mailchimp/mc-woocommerce/issues/441)
 * Thanks for all,
 * Gaby
