Author Problem publishing with FP 2002
JPS

2005-02-02, 2:50 am

I am having problems updating my website. I am running Windows XP
Professional SP2 Build 2600 with FrontPage 2002 SP2. My web hosting firm is
ValueWeb.

I did not have problems publishing in the past and have made updates to my
site before. But now when I try to update (republish) to my site I get shut
out.

When I try republishing my website by clicking on the “Publish Web” icon,
this is the message I receive: "A web does not exist at
http://sayrenature.com/. Would you like FrontPage to create a web at that
location?"

When I try republishing the website using File>Open Web…, this is the
message I receive: “The folder ‘http://sayrenature.com/’ isn’t accessible.
The folder may be located in an unavailable location, protected with a
password, or the filename contains a / or \.”

Here are the ways in which I have tried to resolve the problem:
1. I reinstalled the FrontPage SE
2. I searched for and deleted all .web and .tmp files
3. I repaired IE
4. I ran “Detect and Repair” in FP
5. I deleted the webpage pointer in My Network Connections
6. I removed the terminal forward slash from my site’s domain name and tried
publishing that way
7. I added the www prefix to my site’s domain name and tried publishing that
way
8. I checked my McAfee firewall to make sure that FP had full permissions to
access the Internet
9. I checked IE to make sure that FP and my web hosting firm have full
permissions
10. I bought a 10-pound sledge hammer

Whenever I attempt to update my website (republish), it does not first ask
me for my username and password. This is strange since it used to do so. Even
the ValueWeb people were surprised by this.

Any help would be appreciated before I install number ten in my list above.

Try entering http://www.sayrenature.com/ for the location,
or opening the site in IE and using File Edit w/ FP

Actually, I've tried both of those suggestions before and still have the same
problem. When trying to publish through the wizard or through File> Open Web
both http://sayrenature.com/ or http://www.sayrenature.com/ results in an
error message.

I'm beginning to think that ValueWeb has a corrupted FPSE file.

JPS: Try these articles:

The folder "http://Website" isn't accessible. The folder may be located on
an unavailable volume or protected with a password.
