| Short description: I am unable to refresh my web site with changes that I
make in FrontPage 2003 from my development machine. When I try to publish, I
get the following error: "Unable to open
'http://hwww.haggard-and-associates.com'. Possible causes: 1. The web server
may not... etc." This is my own server. It does have FP extensions
installed. Would someone suggest a plan of action for how to determine and
fix the problem?
Details: I am unable to publish from my XP Pro laptop running FrontPage 2003
to my Win 2003 Enterprise Server running IIS and FrontPage Extensions 2002.
I have been able to do so in the past. I suspect that I've broken something
while trying to fix another (still unsolved) problem involving some sort of
permissions issue (The server won't let IIS write to a feedback text file).
The changes I've made to the server have to do with user permissions.
While I certainly appreciate anything that anyone can suggest, please keep
in mind that I am a programmer, not a sys admin, and do not know my way
around these sorts of things very well. Therefore, please be specific in
your suggestions. Just telling me that there is a problem with permissions
doesn't help while telling me how to change permissions would be very
useful.
Cheers!

| The problem was, of course, security and nothing to do with the actual
display error message. While working on another issue, I'd changed security
on the web site and that broke FP 2003's deployment of the website.
Here's what fixed the problem:
Start up the IIS Management Console plug-in.
Right click on the web site (In this case, 'Default Web Site') that won't
accept deployment.
Select 'Properties'
This brings up a dialog box.
Select Directory Security tab.
Click on the Authentication and access control Edit button.
Make sure that Enable anonymous access is enabled with the IUSER<machine
name> account.
Make sure that Basic authentication is also enabled.
Click OK and close out everything.
FP 2003 should now be able to deploy.
