 * Showing error while connecting my website with jepack.
    Error Details: The Jetpack
   server could not communicate with your site’s XML-RPC URL. Please check to make
   sure [http://entrancemantra.com/xmlrpc.php](http://entrancemantra.com/xmlrpc.php)
   is working properly. It should show ‘XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only.’
   on a line by itself when viewed in a browser and should not have any blank lines
   or extra output anywhere. Find out how to fix this issue here: [https://jetpack.com/support/getting-started-with-jetpack/what-do-these-error-messages-mean/blank-lines-xmlrpc/](https://jetpack.com/support/getting-started-with-jetpack/what-do-these-error-messages-mean/blank-lines-xmlrpc/)

 * Jetpack uses your site’s XML-RPC file to communicate with WordPress.com. Unfortunately
   I cannot access that file on your site at the moment. Whenever I try to make 
   requests to this file, I get the following error above the expected response:
 *     ```
       <br/>
       <b>Deprecated</b>: Automatically populating $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. To avoid this warning set 'always_populate_raw_post_data' to '-1' in php.ini and use the php://input stream instead. in <b>Unknown</b> on line <b>0</b><br/>
       ```
   
 * Could you contact your hosting provider and ask them to take a look at the issue?
   Once the error disappears, you’ll be able to use Jetpack.
 * I hope this helps.

 * When ever I goint to this link [http://entrancemantra.com/xmlrpc.php](http://entrancemantra.com/xmlrpc.php),
   it shows “XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only”. I am using Jetpack Version
   4.4.2 and wordpress Version 4.7.1.

 * The error message I mentioned above isn’t displayed in the browser. It does, 
   however, appear when making POST requests to the file.
 * Here is an example:

 * Your hosting provider should be able to look into this.
 * I hope this helps.
