Mismatch with server

J

jjprescott

After I publish my site to the server from my PC 12 of the files show "Unmatched" and the blue arrow is present, as if I need to publish the file. The size, for example, of one of the files on my PC is 3404B and on the server is 3397B. I just tried deleting the file example file from the server then published again. This time the same file on the server is 2176B
10 of the files are .htm files the other two are .gif files. I tried "overwriting all files" on the server but it did not change anything. The site seems to work fine and nothing seems to be missing. Is this normal or should I be concerned?

You didn't say which FP version or operating system, so what I would do is:
Close FrontPage, and then search for and delete all files named *.web and *.tmp and then
clear the browser temporary internet and history files.

Then:
Open the live web in FrontPage, and then select Tools > Recalculate hyperlinks. When done
close the live version and open the local version and then select Tools > Recalculate
hyperlinks.

Then try a publish and see what happens.

Im running 2003. To be clear are you saying to delete ALL *.web and *.tmp on my computer? Or, just in specific files related to FP?

Yeppers, delete all *.tmp and *.web files found when FrontPage is *not* running.

Steve, this did not fix it. Now, there does NOT seem to be a problem. Should I just let it be? Or, will I face a problem down the road? Thanks for your help.
