FP Has a Directory Name Stuck In It's Craw

[jim evans]

A few days ago I created a directory name for example MyFolder. Later
that day I deleted this folder. Today I created a directory named
myfolder. The first time I published myfolder with its contents
everything went fine. A few hours later I added a JPG file named
mypicture.jpg which is used/referenced by an html page in the same
directory. Now I get the following persistent error that halts
publication.

Server error: The folder that would hold URL 'MyFolder/mypicture.jpg'
does not exist on the server.

I am unable to do anything to stop this error. I have searched the
entire directory on my local computer that contains this web. The
string MyFolder does not exist in this directory.

I use FP 2002
My host supports FP and extensions
I develop locally and publish using http

Go to http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm and download FP
Cleaner.
Run the routines that clear the web cache files and FrontPage temporary
files - see if that helps.

That worked. Thank you, thank you.

It removed about 140 temporary files. That didn't help. It deleted
about 35-40 web cache files -- that fixed it.

Well, it isn't a perfect fix. Every time I reopen FP I have to run
the program again. It works one time.
