error occurred accessing... files > 1 mb

P

postalgbv

Using Frontpage 2000 on a Win2000 machine with all updates for
everything. I work on my pages on my machine and save them to
\\fileserver\webs\webname\..... on our fileserver here at the office.
I use the server just to store the info..I publish the page to our
webserver furnished by our ISP.

When I add a large photo (>1mb) to a page and save, it tries to save a
copy of the photo into my ...\images directory as it should. But it
gives me the "error occurred accessing..." error. Other than giving me
workarounds using FTP, etc, can someone explain what is happening and
is there a registry fix or something else that is keeping it from
saving the photo into the directory if it's over 1mb? I changed the
photo in Photoshop to just under 1 mb and it works fine..what gives?

It's a known issue with FP 2000 and at this time there is no fix other than the ones you are using /
are aware of.

The default is set to 1 MB anonymous uploads in the FP 2002 SE.

There is a command that you can run on the server that will increase the anonymous upload size for a given web site. The command
(for all ports) is as follows:

owsadm -o setproperty -pn vti_maxuploadcontentlength -pv 3000000

The size at the end of the line is in bytes.

The Owsadm.exe (for FP 2002 SE) can be found at
C:\Program files\common files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\50\bin folder.

OK, well I'm still confused. What is considered my 'server', because I
am using the fileserver here just to store the web on, as if it were
another drive. My ISP has the real webserver with the FP server stuff
setup on it, but that's not the problem right now.

thanks

Change it on both the Win 200o machine and your fileserver
- you can not change it on your host ISP server, but you can ask them to do it

A workaround for your ISP host server is to create a subweb (say media) in your FP web and put all your large media files in it -
then FTP to that folder only on the ISP
