Form publishing problems - 12/10/2002 20:19:17   
Please take a look at the form on www.discount-realestatebrokers.com

When filling out and submitting the form I get:

<FrontPage Error.
User: please report details to this site' s webmaster.

Webmaster: please see the server' s system log for more details.>

I set it up with my email address and confirmation page(thankyou.htm)

I had the FP extensions reset.

Would you have any idea why it is doing this?

Thank you,
Herman

How did you publish the forum to the server?

I had this problem before. I created a forum and uploaded it to he web server using CuteFTP Pro. It gave the same error message. I contacted the server administrator. He asked me to publish the form directly to the server using FrontPage. I followed what he said, and it did work. I don' t know how.

Here is anohter web site that I have created which gives an error message.
http://craft-world.dnswh.com/feedback.htm . I uploaded all the files using CuteFTP. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank You

You could both try this:

Open the site live on the server, and do tools > recalculate hyperlinks.

This is often a necessary step for forms and counters uploaded without the FP Publish function.

Vision,
Please see the cut and paste below. It' s from this URL http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q174406:

" If the SMTP host is present when the form is created, but the SMTP host is later removed (and the form has not changed since then), you receive the following error on a default page returned by the form when the form is submitted:

FrontPage Error.

User: Please report details to this site' s webmaster. Webmaster: Please see the server' s application event log for more details. "


Set Up Your E-mail Transport
To send form results to an e-mail host, the FrontPage Server Extensions require a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server. The FrontPage 98 Server Extensions do not support any other form of e-mail server software. Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 and above supports SMTP when IMS services are started.

To send e-mail from the Web server, configure the FrontPage Server Extensions in the Frontpg.ini file on the server to deliver the mail to an e-mail transport. To do this, follow these steps:
On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Notepad.
On the File menu, click Open.
Select the Frontpg.ini file and then click Open.

This file is typically located in the \Windows or \Winnt folder.
To configure your e-mail transport, locate the [FrontPage 3.0] section and then enter the parameter you want. When you do this, use the following syntax.

NOTE: For a list of the supported parameters, please see the " Parameters" section of this article.

Syntax for Windows NT Server:

Parameter=value

Syntax for UNIX is:

Parameter:value

This should be set in the Wexxxx.cnf configuration file where x stands for the TCP/IP port on which the Web server is running, for example:

/usr/local/frontpage


Save and close the file.
Stop and then restart the Web server.
If your web is hosted on your Web Presence provider' s server, you must contact the server administrator and have them follow the steps previously listed.


Would you let me know if it fixes the problem after following the above steps. Thank You...Suby
