Some blog owners report a problem with editing posts, in post editor.
With any changes made to a published post, an attempt to update shows another monolithic error.
Even with the mysterious error displayed, repeatedly, the changes just made may be visible in the post.
In some cases, a new post editor session - or the post display refreshed - will even show the changes made.
Even with the post editor showing
I just updated my earlier post, Country Code Aliasing Is A Solution - Not A Problem.
My personal and recent experience.
The post, before being updated.
I added the observation to the post
I just updated my post.
Post Editor, showing the added observation.
Then, I clicked "Update" - and waited for an eternity. No matter how many times I hit "Update", I see the same error.

If you see the error, don't give up!

Post Editor, showing this error, after clicking "Update" - just as I updated my previous post.
My previous post - updated, even with Post Editor displaying the error!
This, too, may involve the Blogger / Google CDN - and delay in updating the Blogger database, between the nodes in the CDN.
Just be careful when closing the post editor tab or window, with the warning about unsaved changes displayed.
So, what to do, now? I couldn't even leave that window, to update this post - I had to Stay!
And having updated this post, in this window, I have to close that window, with the changes maybe unsaved. But I'll re read the post as displayed, first.
If you see a mysterious #Blogger Post Editor error "An error occurred while trying to save or publish your post. Please try again.", when trying to update a previously published post, repeatedly, take a moment and verify that the changes being made were NOT saved. You may be surprised!
