Hi folks. I'm new here and am just looking for some guidance. I inherited an
intranet that I did not design, and so I am trying to sort through the piece
s
to see how this thing works. There is really no one else here who knows, so 
I
am kind of on my own.

The site resides on IIS which is running on Windows Server 2003. The site
was designed and built with Frontpage 2002, and the extensions for Frontpage
2002 are installed. The site has a search page that uses one of the built in
Frontpage web components to make it work, but it currently is broken. It is
my understanding that is has been broken for a while.

When trying to use the search, you get the following error:

"FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.

Click the <Back> arrow to return to the previous page."

As I said, the Frontpage Extensions are installed and they have already been
re-installed once which did nothing to fix the problem. Does anyone have any
suggestions where to go from here?  Thanks.

You need to ensure that Index Server/Service is installed and running and th
at Index Catalog is
created for the web site. For help regarding Index Server, post to the Index
 Server newsgroup or the
IIS Newsgroup.

In addition to Thamas' response, you must open the web in FrontPage
using an http://  address (*not* a file location like
c:\website\page.htm), and run Tools->Recalculate Hyperlinks.
This may correct the problem - but not until the Index Service
catalogue has been created.

The error you see is usually caused by FTPing the page to the server,
or by opening the web as a disc-based web using a file location,
instead of opening as a server based web using a location similar to
http://example.com

...and, if Windows 2003 SP1 is installed, many people report that the
extensions do not work, and have to uninstall SP1.  Which I think truly sux
;-)
