I send the following XML-RPC fragment to update a page (not a post) to a WordPress:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<methodCall>
  <methodName>wp.editPost</methodName>
  <params>
    <param>
      <value>
        <i4>0</i4>
      </value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>user</value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>pass</value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>
        <i4>30</i4>
      </value>
    </param>
    <param>
      <value>
        <struct>
          <member>
            <name>post_content</name>
            <value>xyz</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>post_date</name>
            <value>Wed Jun 15 15:15:27 EDT 2016</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>post_status</name>
            <value>publish</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>post_title</name>
            <value>xxx Wed Jun 15 15:15:27 EDT 2016</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>post_type</name>
            <value>page</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>comment_status</name>
            <value>open</value>
          </member>
          <member>
            <name>ping_status</name>
            <value>open</value>
          </member>
        </struct>
      </value>
    </param>
  </params>
</methodCall>

I manage to create a page, but not update it.

The server returns: HTTP server returned unexpected status: Internal Server Error

Here is my Java stack, although I am pretty sure, Java is not the reason...

And page with id #30 does exist...

I think I have found the issue, it seems that one, two, or the 3 of the 3 XML_RPC commands fail in an update:

  • post_date
  • comment_status
  • ping_status
