What should I do now to get my site live?

Gail · May 30, 2004

Well, my friends, I have done everything that my host suggested and now I have nothing. I just don't know what to do anymore. I am including their remarks to see if they were even close to having a clue. Of course, if they didn't, I guess it doesn't matter at this point because I don't have a site. Talk about a total breakdown. What do I do from here

Following are the suggestions from my host

"Yes, that is what I am suggesting you do. You have changed names on things so many times that I think you are going to need to go through the process of readding the interactive button again. To delete the current pages off the server, you can go into your file manager and delete the pages that are there. Then once you have them ready to publish again you can just republish with FP and it should be fixed

Please let us know if we can help further.

"OK, I am not sure how you are publishing but your files dont seem to be making it to the server. Here is an article that we have on how to publish your files.

If you have a Front Page web site on your hard drive and you are needing to publish it to the server, you would go to file, publish web and type in http://YourIpAddress and Front Page will publish your site to the server. Prior to doing this, you must first install front page extensions and wait 10 minutes for them to install

To prevent your Front Page extensions from corupting, here are a few things to keep in mind
1. If you are publishing from your hard drive to the server, only go through the Front Page publishing feature to move your files from your hard drive to the server. Don't use FTP
2. Be sure not to let your package run out of space. If you see that you are getting close to running out of space, please let us know at the helpdesk at christianwebhost.com/helpdesk and ask for your package to be increased to the next package. You can also delete any mail that you may have stored on the server or delete files to prevent from running out of space
3. Don't create custom error page
4. Don't use .htaccess file
5. Don't stop the publishing process once you have started to publish
6. Be sure to name all files, folder and subwebs - all lower case, no spaces. This will help with links and search engines but also, if we ever need to manually uninstall and reinstall front page extensions, spaces can prevent the extensions from uninstalling and reinstalling correctly

ftping files to the server while front page extensions are installed will corrupt the extensions. You can probably ftp audio and .cgi or .pl files to the server without any problem. When you ftp anything like cgi scripts to the server, be sure to NOT open those files within your Front Page program as that would definitely cause the extensions to corrupt. You would want to download the scripts to your hard drive and make any changes to the script using notepad and then ftp it back to the server

If you have previous files on the server that were ftp'd and you will now be using Front Page, please back up all files that have been uploaded to the server, and post at the helpdesk and ask the techs to delete all files from the server. This will delete any possible .htaccess files that may be out there from previous ftp publishing that will prevent Front Page extensions from installing correctly
=================

As your Front Page site grows be sure to use subwebs. A Front Page site that grows to over 50 MB will start having publishing problems if you aren't using subwebs. To turn some of your folders into subwebs, open your site in front page and right click on the folders that you have created and click 'convert to web'

Please let us know if we can help further.

I am now getting a message "You are not authorized to view this page HTTP 403. (Forbidden). What the heck is this all about? I am now at my wits end. Can you help

Thanks

Here is the latest from my host:

"What folder are you telling your files to publish to? Are you telling it to publish directly to http://www.bikerburials.com? You cant have it in an additional folder or anything. You just need to take your index.htm file from the root directory of your site and publish it directly up to the server. If you put your files into an additional folder, they wont show up.

I know for a fact that I am publishing directly to http://www.bikerburials.com. I am so uneducated in this whole thing that I am not exactly sure anymore what I am doing. I definitely have additional folders set up for images and buttons, but why would that be a problem? I thought it was okay to have additional folders in my website.

Does this make sense to you

Good Morning Everyone
Wow, what a day I had yesterday. It was in the wee hours of the morning that I (actually Thomas Rowe) finally got the site working. I am so grateful for the help from Thomas. I have no idea what he did (and at some point I would like to know) but it worked! As promised, I am not going to do a thing to my site today. It is a beautiful day so I am going to be outside enjoying it.

I reckon I should fill in my host that things are working now. I will wait until I know how it was fixed so I can tell them so that they too will then be more knowledgeable

Again, and I can't stress this enough, THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH! This could lead a girl to drink :-

Thanks, how very kind of you. I actually had a fun day even though it was doing grueling yard work.

As soon as I hear from Thomas on what he did to resolve my problem, I will be happy to share it with the rest of you fine folks

Have a great evening! I'm not staying on long otherwise I'll be tempted to make some more changes :-

| Wow, what a day I had yesterday. It was in the wee hours of the morning that I (actually Thomas Rowe) finally got the site working. I am so grateful for the help from Thomas. I have no idea what he did (and at some point I would like to know) but it worked! As promised, I am not going to do a thing to my site today. It is a beautiful day so I am going to be outside enjoying it.

Have a great evening! I'm not staying on long otherwise I'll be

tempted to make some more changes :-(

Have fun today.

I'm sure we'd all like to know; "the rest of the story" of

what went wrong in publishing! Keep us posted

| Good Morning Everyone!
| Wow, what a day I had yesterday. It was in the wee hours

of the morning that I (actually Thomas Rowe) finally got the site
working. I am so grateful for the help from Thomas. I have no idea
what he did (and at some point I would like to know) but it worked! As
promised, I am not going to do a thing to my site today. It is a
beautiful day so I am going to be outside enjoying it.

|
| I reckon I should fill in my host that things are working

now. I will wait until I know how it was fixed so I can tell them so
that they too will then be more knowledgeable.

|
| Again, and I can't stress this enough, THANK YOU EVER SO

MUCH! This could lead a girl to drink :-^

| | Thomas,
| |
| | Here is the latest from my host:
| |
| | "What folder are you telling your files to publish

to? Are you telling it to publish directly to
http://www.bikerburials.com? You

| cant have it in an additional folder or anything. You

just need to take your index.htm file from the root directory of your
site and

| publish it directly up to the server. If you put your

files into an additional folder, they wont show up."

| |
| | I know for a fact that I am publishing directly to

http://www.bikerburials.com. I am so uneducated in this whole thing
that I am

| not exactly sure anymore what I am doing. I

definitely have additional folders set up for images and buttons, but
why would that be

| |

| |
| | Thanks.

| | >> To prevent your Front Page extensions from

corupting, here are a few things to keep in mind:

| | > 1. If you are publishing from your hard

drive to the server, only go through the Front Page

| | publishing feature to move your files from

your hard drive to the server. Don't use FTP.

| | > 2. Be sure not to let your package run out

of space. If you see that you are getting close to

| | running out of space, please let us know at

the helpdesk at christianwebhost.com/helpdesk and ask

| | for your package to be increased to the next

package. You can also delete any mail that you may have

| | stored on the server or delete files to

prevent from running out of space.

| | > 3. Don't create custom error pages
| | > 4. Don't use .htaccess files
| | > 5. Don't stop the publishing process once you have started to publish.
| | > 6. Be sure to name all files, folder and

subwebs - all lower case, no spaces. This will help with

| | links and search engines but also, if we ever

need to manually uninstall and reinstall front page

| | extensions, spaces can prevent the extensions

from uninstalling and reinstalling correctly.

| | >> ftping files to the server while front page

extensions are installed will corrupt the extensions.

| | You can probably ftp audio and .cgi or .pl

files to the server without any problem. When you ftp

| | anything like cgi scripts to the server, be

sure to NOT open those files within your Front Page

| | program as that would definitely cause the

extensions to corrupt. You would want to download the

| | scripts to your hard drive and make any

changes to the script using notepad and then ftp it back to

| | the server.
| | >> If you have previous files on the server

that were ftp'd and you will now be using Front Page,

| | please back up all files that have been

uploaded to the server, and post at the helpdesk and ask the

| | techs to delete all files from the server.

This will delete any possible .htaccess files that may be

| | out there from previous ftp publishing that

will prevent Front Page extensions from installing

| | correctly.
| | > ==================
| | >> As your Front Page site grows be sure to

use subwebs. A Front Page site that grows to over 50 MB

| | will start having publishing problems if you

aren't using subwebs. To turn some of your folders into

| | subwebs, open your site in front page and

right click on the folders that you have created and click

Well it seems I have offended someone. I am sorry if I was not following protocol. However, I have worked long and hard trying to create my site since I taught myself the FP program. I believe, though, that you must not be too bright yourself. What the heck does the color of my hair have anything to do with it? Also, apparently, some people care or they wouldn't have helped me as they did. I guess I included my personal trials and tribulations as a way to show the side of me that has a real life, and not a person that hangs out in NG's and makes ignorant comments (such as yourself) to those who are truly trying to accomplish something. Not everything comes easy to everyone, as it apparently does to you. Please show me your work and maybe I will learn a thing or do. And, I have every right to belong in front of frontpage, let alone a computer. It's just that I respect that right and don't make moronic statments like you that are offensive

Have a nice day!

Thanks! As a newbie, I didn't realize there were ignorant people like that who could be so rude. I will do my best to stick to the subject, though, because I know you folks get bombarded all the time with questions

Stefan, I was wondering if you saw the post about how you mentioned that I shouldn't use Word Art. However, you gave me instructions on how to have FP create .gif images for other users. Tools Page Options Authoring and turn on Down-level Images under VML. Guess what, it is already on. Does this mean that my Word Art could be a .gif image but I just need to do something to make it such

Most people I have talked with say they can see the logo. However, I did have one person say they could not see it. I do not know what browser they are using as I didn't know at the time that this was going to be a problem.

Thanks

You didn't violate any protocol.

We have a rude troll that likes to insult people and email viruses every now and then. He/she probably suffers from faulty potty training.

Hi Stefan
Actually, I created the word art in FP 2003. I also noticed when I looked at the logo in code, it is a .gif image. I am aware that I could take a screen shot (I'm not sure how to do that), which is probably what you did for me, but I didn't think it looked the same. What I mean by that is I had formatted the word art with "chrome" and "granite" but the ones you sent me don't appear that way. Thomas mentioned he was going to work with me on it, but I told him NO HURRY! My site is working and for now that's good enough for me. However, I know that I still have things to work on.

Thanks so much for everything!
