Can't extend web site to FPSE2002
|
|
| news@fastwave.net 2005-02-03, 8:47 pm |
| When displaying web sites using the FPSE2002 Server Administration web
page, in the right-hand column, all the web sites show as 'Extend' or
'Administration' except one which is blank.
To the left of this column is the version number 6.0.2.6353 which
signifies a 'disk based web site' It used to be a fully functional
FPSE2002 version 5.0.2.4803 web site, and I don't know how it got
converted to a disk-based web site.
How do I revert this web site back to FPSE2002 version 5.0.2.4803,
since there is no 'Extend' link to click on?

| Hi,
This is because, the server based site is edited using frontpage 2003 as a
disk based one. To solve the problem, follow the steps .
1. Open home directory of the web site in windows explorer
2. open the _vti_pvt folder and open the service.cnf file in notepad
3. You can try changing the vti_extenderversion variable in the
service.cnf file in _vti_pvt folder to the current version of FPSE.
Hope this helps
regards
Hari

| Thanks, Hari.
I knew it had to be something obtuse.
Changing 'vti_extenderversion' did not fix the problem, but it allowed
me to access the web site using SharePoint whereby I could delete
FPSE2002 and re-install it. Everything seems to be back to normal
after the re-install.
I'm glad you responded. Thanks, again.
