"Couldn't open file C:\Documents ..." error while editing localhost copy

Lately while editing our FP2003 localhost, I've been
getting an error message reading:

"Couldn't open file C:\Documents and Settings\Local
Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\FrontPageTempDir\761d414a.htm."

I close the error window and another similar
filenamenumber.htm takes its place. This dance continues
for 6 or more file names. I shut down FP and reopen and
everything is fine for a while.

When I look in Temporary Internet Files there is no
\FrontPageTempDir\. However there is a folder named
FrontPageTempDir in C:\Documents and Settings\Local
Settings\Temp but it has nothing in it.

It seems to have something to do with the number of pages
I have open. Sometimes it's only after I've edited about 6
pages.

It appears also that it's related to FP2003 in combination
with my new clean install of XP Pro (on a RAID-0). I just
switched from XP Home to XP Pro. I've used FP for several
years (versions) and never had this problem.

Today I did a clean install of FrontPage 2003 which puts
FP in C:\Program Files\microsoft office -and within about
six pages it brought up the same "can't... " error message.

I've looked in:
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Local
Settings\Temp\FrontPageTempDir (which as I mention is
always empty)

and,

C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\Application
Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache (After this
morning's error message I looked in \Cache and it only had
6 files, which I deleted)

I have also deleted, via IE's Tools>Internet
Options>Temporary Internet Files>, both "Delete files"
and "Delete cookies."

A search for 761d414a.htm (hidden files) brings up nothing

I have 1.00 GB of RAM.


Got Solution?

Thanks,

Kerry

This is a known problem without a fix, at the moment

The FP2003 temporary files are located at

%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir

Type this into the address bar in Windows explorer.
