Error Message when publishing

Hi,

I am getting the following error when I attempt to publish my site using
FP2002:

Server Error: The server extensions were unable to access the file
"htppd.conf". Please check the file permissions"

Does anyone know how this can be resolved? Thanks

One of the first thing to do when you receive publishing errors that ask to
check permissions is to inform your host. Permissions errors 99% of the time
won't be anything that you can fix as they reside on the server and often
need a tweak from an admin. This is especially true when it comes to
configuration files. It could be that the file itself is deleted or the
permissions are buggered and it doesn't enable your user account to read the
file.

Hope tihs helps,

Please await their reply.
