I just had my server enable FP extensions. My web site has not been moved.
Until now, I have been using FTP to publish (3rd button down when you click
on web site properties). Now I want to us the first button down - FrontPage
or Sharepoint services) - correct? What exactly do I type in the box after
the http:// automatically appears? I have tried just about every variation
of websitename.com and when the next screen appears requesting user and
password, it won't go beyond that but just keeps asking for the user and
password. Do I have to change any settings in FrontPage before I publish.
Is the problem with the server? I was given a new password for the new set
up. Please keep your answers simple :-) Thanks

Apologies for the double post. I was told that the first one didn't go
through.

You can only use the FP SE option If your host service has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed on your online site
If they do use http://www.yoursitename.com/

According to my server, the FP SEs have been enabled on the server. Is that
what you mean by "your online site"? If so, I have tried entering the info
as you suggest below, and it still doesn't work. Does that mean the problem
is at the server's end? Are there any changes I have to make to Tools -
Options or Tools - Page Options?

I am still no further ahead in publishing the web site. My server has server
extensions installed, enabled, etc. but I still can't get beyond entering my
id and password to publish using FP and SharePoint Services in remote web
site properties. Other questions and answers in this forum keep mentioning
installing IIS and server extensions, and I really don't know what that means
- does it mean I have to do something in addition to what is already there?
I think there must be some setting under tools - properties (or page
properties) that I have wrong. I seem to have everything enabled (except
ActiveX and JavaScript which I don't think have anything to do with this
problem). Do I have to install something in addition to what was installed
during the initial installation of FrontPage 2003? Does the fact that I have
published the web site up to this point using the FTP section of remote web
site properties have anything to do with the problem? I am completely
boggled. Thanks ;-{

Yes, I can open in FP using File Open site but not in IE using File Edit
w/FP. I have 2 passwords for the site - the original that I used with FTP
and and new one for FP SE. The original site is still on IE, and that is the
one that I tried to open in IE with File Edit w/ FP (using both the new
password and the old one). The original is not in the same location on the
server as the new one (using FP SE) that we're trying to get functioning.
And no, I haven't published since the SE were added. Is it sounding like the
problem is at the server? He says that he doesn't know FP, but that the 2002
extensions are enabled. Is there some update that he should do? Thanks ;-)

So, you should address the problem of connecting to your site. I take it
you were accessing the site with some username-id\password to view the site.
Can you still do that?

I would suspect that to publish to the site, you have to access the site
with the Administrator username\Admin Password. Do you know those
credentials and can you view the existing site with them?

Yes, I can still access the site (through FP) with FTP using the old password
(but I haven't published since the change to server extensions was made). I
can't access using FP and SharePoint Services using the new password. No, I
don't have access to the admin username and password (at least I don't think
I do).

I think I am at the end of the road and have accepted that I will never be
able to publish a form to the server using FP SE's. That being said, can I
modify the html code in "code view" to be able to publish the form using FTP?
It must be possible because most people don't use FrontPage to create web
sites with forms (and I'm beginning to see why). This is so frustrating.

You want to nail that down, so that there is no thinking involved. You
really must know if you do or don't. That you can't publish with your
anonymous access user name does suggest that you need a different
account to do the publishing. I say that because that is the way it
works on my site.

I really don't know what you mean. I have a user id and a new password. Is
that what you mean by admin username and password? I have not tried to
access with an anonymous username. It's sounding more and more like the
problem is at the server's end. If having a different password for the new
setup means that I have a different account to do the publishing than when I
was publishing using FTP, then I do have a different account. I'm very close
to giving up on the entire thing. But thanks for your reply anyway ;-)

Often a host will have different userID and passwords for FTP vs FP
Contact them and find out what you should be using

I have been in touch with the server many times about this issue and he has
given me the same user id and a new password for FP with SE.

Here are some excerpts from my latest contact with the server:
"What I would suggest you do is make the file, form with FP and then ftp is
to the server. This way you do not need to delete the whole site, and it
should work."
to which I responded: "Do you mean make a new web site with FP, put the form
on it, and ftp it to id xxx and password xxxnew using FTP? Won't that
corrupt the files?"
to which he responded: "Not the entire site only the form, save it to your
computer and then FTP is to the server. Since your web site was FTP in the
first place to the server this should not corrupt anything. You need to make
sure to call the new form from your web. What I am trying to say is that
maybe redoing the entire web site is not necessary."
This is as clear as mud to me. I don't even know what question to ask next.

Obviously an uneducated server host
Any FTP of a FP form will corrupt the form, and may corrupt the site
If you can not open the site in FP directly using File Open Site or in IE using File Edit W/ FP you have a server SE problem or
permissions problem

Thank you, thank you. That makes sense. I'll see if I can get the server to
correct the problem.

Well, the best thing to have him do is wipe your site, and give you a clean
slate. Then you can publish your site, as should have been done the first
time. After that first time completes, then you only have to publish the new
and changed pages.

Thanks. I will pass that on the server. (Wish me luck!) Maybe I will get
this to work after all.

Sorry to break in but I am having the same exact problem. My server also has
the FP extensions active and instructs me that my User ID and Password are
the same as the FTP. I am a new user and the only way my site got up was by
me sending my server my files and he established a public file and posted the
site but I cannot edit my site in FTP and need to get FP up.

Did you ever get help.

I am using Frontpage 2003 and I can't even get to the user ID and password
popup to publish. My host tells me that publishing is the only way to post
to the server using front page. The server extensions are installed. If I
try publishing using FTP, it corrupts their files.

Someone please help

I am having SAME problem.
1. I published to one site at ukhost4U using FP 2003. Worked fine.
2. Published another site at Pickaweb using FP2003. Fine.
3. I set up a second domain with the first host ukhost4U. Tried to publish
a new site. No access, not even to the username and password box. Just
message "Sharepoint services not installed". The Site DOES has FP Extensions
installed. The host has checked and says he can upload from Frontpage. But I
can't. So next I tried using the FTP mode in Frontpage, I got access to the
remote site, uploaded files. But host tells me this has corrupted the setup.
He kindly moved the files into the public_html folderat his end and the site
now works! BUT he says I need to reload the entire site in order to reset the
setup.

But the main question is: Why does FP work sometimes and not always? Only
clue I can think of is that the host tells me the second site is on a
different server to the first one. But he has double checked and says FP
Extensiuons are installed. Driving me crazy. Is this a Frontpage bug?
