not responding error when publishing to web

P

progutters

When I go to publish I get one or two errors -
Either it starts saving and then quits responding
or it pops up a box that says I need to 'check your url or network
connecitio and try again'
I have broadband, so there is no connection issue -
I have not had this problem before with Publisher!
What am I doing wrong?

What version of Publisher?
Are you prompted for the user and pswd?
Is this an ftp or http upload?
Have you rebooted (makes sure there is no hanging connection)?
Do you have any object on any page that is overlapping into the scratch area?

Once I click publish web and tell it to to the the my network location, it
then asks me for my username and password, once entered a box shows up at the
bottom and says that it is 'WORKING publishing HTML files' then 1 of 2 things
happens either I get the 'check your url or network connection' error or a
box shows up at the top left and says that is is SAVING, then either I get
the error again or it quits responding and locks up
It is a http upload
I am new to publisher, I had no problems at the beginning until now.

Have you recently changed options of using the subfolder and/or of using
incremental uploading? In both it could be that there are permission issues
on the host server. Ask your web host support to double check and verify
that your account permissions are correct for http publishing and that they
allow the creation of a subfolder and the creation of the xml file type.
And while they're at it, it wouldn't hurt to request they reinstall
FrontPage extensions.

I am having pretty much the same problem with uploading http with Pub 03. I
created a website (2 actually) and uploaded to the server with the original
file and with numerous updates - with no problem. Suddenly, I tried to do an
update and got these errors. After about a week of trying to load,
communicating on this forum and with my host, I copied my file to a cd and
brought it to work and uploaded it successfully. I have broadband at home
and we have high-speed at work. So is that an issue? regardless, it is
quite a pain. The file is too large to load on a floppy, too large to email
and it creates a read-only file on the cd. I supposed I can get a "key" and
transport the file. It's really aggravating though. I am pretty certain
that I am going to pucrhase Frontpage and convert. I am having other issues
as well such as not being able to view my site with netscape. Also, my
photos are loading painfully slow!

David, do FrontPage extensions need to be active when publishing with
Publisher 2003?

FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) are only required if you want to use a
form page on your site and thus want to use FPSE for the forms "back-end"
processing. Or otherwise because you want to be able to use "Web Folder"
(http) publishing rather then FTP. I myself use web folder publishing
exclusively on all my sites.

The most important thing is to pick one protocol, and one protocol only, be
it ftp or http, and only use that. Don't use both randomly.

Well I'd prefer to use http publishing, so I may attempt that again at some
point.

The main point being that using FTP tends to break the FP extensions,,,,so
don't switch back and forth between the two (ftp/http).
