Since you have had a failed publish do some clean up
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
Usually in you IE Temp folder, C:\WINDOWS\Temp and
C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Local Settings\Temp
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
Then open you online web in FP and run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks before you attempt to publish
PS
The size of your site (150MB) may continue to cause you problems (server errors or timeouts)
If your host supports subwebs, you may want to convert some of the folders to subwebs based on content grouping (see FP Help on
subwebs)
Then you can publish the root web (and each subweb) independently
| It is about 150Mb - not sure of a file count. It is just
| a family site, so it isn't like a client or anything, but
| I would hate to lose all of it if something happened to
| the server.
|
| Plus - I am just curious why it quit working when it has
| worked for over a year and nothing changed (that I am
| aware of).
