Can't publish HTTP - 12/17/2004 21:06:56
Hello:
I am in the process of moving my site to a new server and cannot publish my site using FP2002 HTTP. My original site is still up and running, have not moved my domain till I get the new one working. The NEW server has 2002 server ext. installed, they have also reinstalled them. The HTP error message is: Unable to open http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/ (1) no ext (2) out of service (3) proxy.......... etc.
I did get the site up using a 3rd party FTP software BUT there are problems with the navagation structure that I need to fix and upload it with FrontPage.
When I try to open the web in FrontPage I put the URL in http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/ and get : The folder http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/ isn't accessible?
If I put the same link in Windows Explorer it opens the site.
Any help with this would be greately appreciated.
I am pulling out what little hair I have left :)
Tks.
Bill

Have your host try publishing via FP. If they can publish, then you know you are doing something wrong.

bdannels,
This isn't a URL, it's an IP. Do Publish web site files to the web site (http://www.yoursite.com) - don't FTP which will corrupt the extensions and overlook critical aspects of the navigation structure (as you've already determined).

Well: :)
If http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/ isn't a URL and I haven't moved my domain name (agisolutions.com) yet because I want to get this site up and working first. How do I upload my new site with FrontPage?
Tks.
Bill

RE: Can't publish HTTP - 12/17/2004 22:14:25
You should be able to use an IP address to publish via FrontPage. There might be issues with this down the road when you try to access the website via your domain- I haven't seen it before, but the way the FP Extensions are configured, they might enter the serverIP instead of your domain name inside of the configuration files.
If you follow what I said in the 2nd post, you might figure out what the problem is.

Hello again:
I tried to FTP the files to ftp://65.254.59.194 and got a error message saying: The following pages in your web site contain link or nav bars that use new formating options(It then gave a list or all my pages that have Nav bars) and basically said if I wanted the nav bars yo work, publish to a server that has the latest server ext. on it. My new server has 2002 ext.
Tks.
Bill

Yeah, that is what happens when you FTP.

Larry, I have often used FrontPage to publish to an IP address before I change the name servers for the domain name, so the site is 100% ready to view as soon as it starts propagating. The process usually works very well.
Bill, using ftp for a site that has FPSE installed, can break (corrupt) the extensions. You might need to reinstall the extensions (if you have access to the Control Panel) or ask your ISP/host to do it for you.
When the extensions have been reinstalled try again to publish with FrontPage and let us know the exact error message you get and the process you used.

Kitka,
I need to learn something here. My hands were slapped by one host (CETLink) years ago for doing this same thing - vaguely remember something to do with two sets of files being maintained on their UNIX server - one for the IP, the other for HTTP. Didn't understand why, just haven't done it since.
So, if I understand you correctly instead of designing a new site as a subweb (to the designer's site) publishing files to the new web client's host IP is better because (1) they are "hidden", (2) they will propogate when the DNS change is made and (3) server space and bandwidth on the designer's site remains in tact. Right?
I gather you agree that once the site is active the IP shouldn't be used and the integrity of FP Extensions are probably an issue in bdannels case.

OK, heres where I am at now....
My Host uses Cpannel, I have 2 choices, reinstall or uninstall
I selected reinstall see message received below.
------------------------------------
Attempting to install FrontPage extensions...
Starting install, port: 80.
Created: 16 Dec 2004 02:45:58 -0000
Version: 5.0.2.2634
Server extensions already installed on port 80.
Reverting to upgrade.
Starting upgrade, port: 80.
Created: 16 Dec 2004 02:45:58 -0000

Chowning Content in service /.
Port 80: Upgrade completed.
Upgraded Version: 5.0.2.2634.
Starting chown, port: 80, web: "/".
DocumentRoot: "/home/bdannels/public_html"
Setting Password
Frontpage passthough auth enabled!
FrontPage extensions are currently: installed
----------------------------------------
Then I Loaded FP 2002, clicked on publish web, In the publish destination box I put http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/ , clicked on OK and got this error message:
Unable to open http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/
Server error: The web server "http://65.254.59.194" does not appear to have the FrontPage server ext. installed. Possible causes: (1) The webserver may not have the Server Extensions installed.
(2) Server may be temp out of service
(3) If you are connecting through a proxy server, settings may be incorrect
(4)A error might have occurred on the server.
---------------------------------------------
This is the same error message I got on day one, when they activated my account with the Extensions installed.
---------------------------------------------
Thanks again

Bill,
http://www.dnswiz.com/fptype.asp shows:
WWW Site: http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/
Port: 80
Server Software: This Web Server Does Not Disclose Identity
FrontPage Extensions: NO
It's possible extensions have only been installed to the IP root directory, not the subweb ~bdannels/ although this goes counter to my experience in this area. As to ~bdannels/, I've never seen a tilde used in a path statement before and wonder if this could contribute to your problem as well. Perhaps renaming would help? Worth a try.
Sorry, out of ideas at this point. Hopefully others more knowledgeable than I can step in here.

RE: Can't publish HTTP - 12/18/2004 12:25:39
Larry - Whether it is an IP address used, or a URL used, they are effectively the same thing. DNS is used to mask an IP. DNS relates to an IP, without IP address, you wouldn't have domains.
Bill - REMOVE the extensions, allow ten to twenty minutes for this process to clear, then install the FPSE again, and again, allow ten to twenty minutes for the server to clear out the task, then try and connect to the server...
PS I didn't post this fer nuffin ya kno...
<edit>
Just checked my servers, and you should be connecting to:
http://65.254.59.194/ and then login as bdannels
My servers are setup in a similar way....
Larry - Nice try fella

If I click on the address you listed above it will NOT take me to my site
I don't understand, maybe it's ME trying to upload the site in the wrong area.
Based on the info listed below how should I enter the HTTP publish location in FrontPage?
---------------------------------------------
ACCOUNT INFORMATION:
Plan: Special
Domain: agisolutions.com
IP Address: 65.254.59.194
IP URL: http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/
* You must place your files in the public_html folder and name your main page index.html
FTP INFORMATION:
Host: 65.254.59.194
Username: bdannels
Password: llibbill
Thanks Again
Bill

1) Remove the FTP login details
2) Just do as I say, it will work

Thanks for the link.
I want to thank you and the others for all your patience and help.
I just got a reply back from support on my new server. They said I can not http up load untill my domain name resolves See Below
Thanks again
Bill
--------------------------------------------------
Hello,
Frontpage extensions are enabled and installed by default. Therefore, once your domain name has resolved, you can easily publish your website via HTTP. Please see the following document and demo for further clarification.
Again, you will want to wait until your domain name has resolved.

RE: Can't publish HTTP - 12/19/2004 10:35:39
Dan:
I am at my wits end on this, my domain name has ben resolved/changed to my NEW server. I don't think everything is working correctly and I am NOT smart enough to tell if I am correct.
The server support people are getting very short with me at this point, not sure what to do next. Maybe everything os OK and I just don't understand what's going on.
Question (1) If it says that my domain name is resolved to 65.254.59.194 Should I be able to get to my site by typing in
http://agisolutions.com OR http://65.254.59.194/ ? are they not the same?
Question (2) Is there anyway "http://agisolutions.com" is still going to my old server or looking like it's going to my old server?
Question (3) When I uploaded my files to the NEW server I uploaded then to "http://65.254.59.194/~bdannels/" do I have to I have to delete them and publish them to "http://agisolutions.com"?
Thank you for any input you can give my to get through this.
Bill
