Your usage of the script looks fine. I suspect that either you have the wrong 
version of python installed, or it is somehow missing the "socket" module. 


Try this: open a python shell:
  python
and then see if you can "import socket" and "import xmlrpclib"
>>>import socket
>>>imprt xmlrpclib

If those don't throw any errors, try running lyxblogger on one of the html 
files in the LyXBlogger distribution. For example, 
   cd LyXBlogger_0.38_BETA_1/docs
   python -m lyxblogger devguide.html 

A couple questions:

1. Which version of Python are you running. LyXBlogger runs for sure on 2.4, 
2.5, and 2.6. But it will NOT run on Python 2.7. 

2. What converter did you use to produce the xhtml? 

3. Which version of LyXBlogger are you running?
 
Let me know. I'd love to fix a bug if there's one out there.
