Re: FP Search function

I called doDaddy with the info in your last post,
and their response is that "...we don't support
search on Windows servers, but we do on Linus servers.."
Their rationale was that the Windows servers were
more prone to security issues than Linux.
They will not offer any other choice.
Are you aware of other hosting providers that provide
the full range of support for FrontPage?

Going by the FPextensions version number
FPVersion="5.0.2.6738" from http://www.vinceg.com/_vti_inf.html ,
you are on a Windows 2003 server. Based on previous posts, GoDaddy does
not support the FP search component on Windows 2003.

Ronx,
I 'recalculated hyperlinks' on the site, and that did not fix the problem.
I created a new page directly on the server,
http://www.vinceg.com/vag_search_3.htm,
and the page that was returned had one line at the top:
"[FrontPage Search Component]" but did not have the
search form or any components (text box, buttons, etc.)
Could this indicate corrupt or out-of-date FP extensions?
My next step is to ask goDaddy to reinstall FP extensions
but I did that before my original post.
Thanks again,

nortbots.htm only appears in five cases:

1) You are testing on a disc-based website, including a FrontPage
disc-based web that is being browsed through a web-server.

2) You are testing on a website that does not have server extensions
installed or running.

3) The site (or form page) was FTPed from a disc-based web, or
published using a FTP address for the destination, or published to a
file system destination including a network share or UNC address (like
\\machinename\path\webname), or to an address like C:\sitename .
Publish must be to a URL of the form http://example.com

4) The site was correctly published, but the extensions were not
installed correctly or were mis-configured. Re-installing the
extensions may correct the problem.

5) There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this
problem.


In your case, either 4 applies, or it sounds like you FTPed the page.
Try opening the remote web and running Tools->Recalculate Hyperlinks.
Or remove the form and redo it on the server (remote web).

I created a page with a web search form and published it.
http://www.vinceg.com/vagsearch.htm

When I enter search terms, I get a 'Page not found'
The page that couldn't be found is:
http://www.vinceg.com/_derived/nortbots.htm.

I've seen info on this problem, and tried editing the
code on the server, but no success.

Thanks for any info on this (old?) problem.
