I'm having a bit of trouble using a Wireless Turtle when it comes to connecting to pastebin. I am in SSP and have the Enable the "http" API on Computers set to True. The problem is, every time I try to get something from pastebin, the connection fails. Can anybody help me out?

How does it fail, i.e. what is the error message exactly?

Actually, if I recall correctly, either option works. Whether it's 1 or true. Mine is set to true right now.

is the 'true' case sensitive though?

I do believe it is. Never tested that though. I always just used lowercase since that is what the 'false' option was.

This problem can occur when you got the wrong pastebin id

I have same problem also
Im using Minecraft 1.4.6

When i type in
[indent=1]"pastebin get UXQhUaJ7 pokeHole"[/indent]

It respond whit..
[indent=1]Connectiong to pastebin.com….failed.[/indent]

I check the config file and it is set to

[indent=1]# Enable Command Block support[/indent]
[indent=1]B:enableCommandBlock=false[/indent]

When i try on a computer whit
[indent=1]pastebin get Zx8mH8a3 filebrowser[/indent]

I get same error message.

So what else can i check for

Billiedude, in future please start new threads for you problems. This thread is old.

check for 'enablehttp' and set it to true. Also do not try save the file if the file already exists.

remix, try to understand the problem before you "help."

If http were not enabled, he would get "No such program" when trying to call pastebin.

if the file already existed, he would get "File already exists"

I'm not sure what's wrong, but it's possible his server has been banned from pastebin, which can happen if your server is making too many pastebin requests.
