The following are some common error messages produced by Flickr, along with their explanations:
XML Parsing Error (Code: -1)
This error occurs when Flickr sent back an invalid response (such as an Apache error page instead of the expected XML content). This usually happens when Flickr is having some kind of temporary stability problem, and does not necessarily indicate a problem with
FlickrExport. Please wait and try again. The problem should clear up within 4-6 hours. Please contact support if this error persists beyond this time period.
The API Service is currently unavailable (Code: 0)
Flickr occasionally turns off access to the site for client applications, usually when some maintenance is happening. In this case, there is nothing wrong with
FlickrExport. Please wait until Flickr re-enables access for client applications. This usually happens within 12-24 hours. If this error persists beyond that, please contact support.
