Re: HTTP & FPSE

Hi David,

Thanks for your speedy reply.

I actually have my site though a company called Ufindus, but I can only
assume they use Easy Space.

I have searched my hosts site many times over the last few days and have
read all the information on this subject. They have assured me that I do have
the correct hosting package and that FPSE can be installed without upgrading
to a different package!

There is even a section on their help pages that mentions Publisher forms
and the
requirements - FPSE installed & HTTP Upload. So they are clearly aware of
the issue.

I have been to my 'Active Add-ons' and selected re-install 'FrontPage
Extensions' three times over the last few days and receive a message saying I
have been placed in a queue.

For my own sanity, can you please clarify when you said:

"then you also know that you cannot use HTTP uploading protocol."

Do you mean that either 1. you can't even attempt to begin the upload, or 2.
you can upload in HTTP but the site won't work?
So even though FPSE are not installed on my site should I at least be able
to upload, or will one not work without the other.

Thanks again for your invaluable help, this has been driving me crazy for
the last few days. I have been using Publisher for the last 7 years and have
already created two sites in Publisher, but I have always used FTP with no
problem. However now that I want to add a publisher form, I’m hitting
problems and unfortunately have a very unhelpful host who I am stuck with
till November!

Regards, Laura.

If you are using Easyspace for hosting, I found this within a few minutes of
reading their support:

"If your FrontPage built website includes any of the components listed above
then you will need to select either Business or Pro NT hosting packages,
where they are free components of the package. Do not select any Linux
packages." (This applies to your Publisher built site that uses FPSE)

Perhaps your hosting program does not include FPSE?

I also found this:

"Installing or Reinstalling FrontPage Extensions


To Install/Reinstall
To install or reinstall FrontPage extensions
login to the Control Panel
Select Website
Choose domain name from the drop down list and hit proceed
Go to the tab 'activate Add-ons' and select 'FrontPage Extensions'
Choose the packages and hit activate

Reinstallation will be needed if extensions have been damaged and are
producing an .htaccess error when your website is viewed. "

Search under support at your host for "front" or FPSE or FrontPage and you
will get a list of topics about using FPSE and how to upload. If you aren't
using a form, then you can use FTP.

I have Publisher 2000 and am really struggling to upload in HTTP protocol.

I have read all the information pages you have recommended and trawled
Yahoo
for the last three days, but with no luck.

I also know that FPSE are not installed on my site
http://www.ab-courier.com/_vti_inf.html as i don't see the Front Page
Configuration Page. However my host assures me they are installed.

I have gone into 'My Network Places' clicked 'Add a new network place' but
every HTTP address I try will not work. However I have managed to upload
in
FTP protocol via 'My Network Places'. I have spoken to my host and they
have
told me my HTTP URL is http://www.ab-courier.com. But this does not work.

I am missing something simple, as I feel like I have hit a brick wall with
my host.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Laura.
