Hello everyone,
I hope that any of you can help me. My problem is as follow:
I have a Win2k web server, That I upgraded to FP Ext 2002
I have a main website: http://www.mywebsite.net
I have also created several subwebs as http://subweb.mywebsite.net.
My problem is that I upgraded to FP2003 and now I cannot open some of my
subweb, I can open some, but in the others I get a response "The folder
http://subweb.domain.net isn't
accessible. The folder may be located on an unavailable location, protected
with a passoword, or the filename contains a / or \ ."

I have removed FP Ext 2002 from the server and restore FP Ext 2000. Still
not able to get to those web sites.
Now, here is the kink on all this, If I use a different computer with
FP2000, I have no problem opening the web sites.

Can anyone help me figure this out????

First: subweb.mywebsite.net is not a subweb, but a subdomain.

A subweb is http://www.mywebsite.net/subweb and to be used as subdomain, the
subdomain name must be mapped to the subweb via the web server.

Then to access from FP, open as http://www.mywebsite.net/subweb.

From a browser, you would then use subweb.mywebsite.net

Thank you Mr. Rowe,
My apologies. It is a Subdomain not a subweb. Do you have any ideas???
Thank you in advance.

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

Can you access it the using the example I provided for accessing a subweb?
Keep in mind that Windows 2003 server is configured by default to have most
items turn off by default, where prior versions, everything was on by
default.
