Front Page 2003 File Population

[Tileman]

Recently my server switched my website to a Linux server and migrated all
my pages etc. They had trouble migrating and either didn't take all the
pictures or put some of them into other files. Plus EVERY item that comes up
in the folder list in Front Page were in there 3 to 4 times. If I tried to
delete a page so there would be only one of that page remaining, it would
delete all of that same page. I had them switch the site back to the old
server that was working, and on the internet it displays correctly with all
the pictures, but when I go into Front Page to change something, the previous
files are still there in triplicate. What would happen if I deleted ALL the
folders and re-published them from my computer.
Need help !!!

Go here: http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm and download FP Cleaner ( with Expression Web and
SharePoint Designer support )
Download links are at the bottom of the page.
Run the functions that clear:
The Hidden Temporary files.
The Hidden Cache (*.web) files.

See if it makes a difference.

Thanks Tom.

Steve Easton is the author of that utility, so you can be fairly sure it's
safe.

Do a virus check on it after downloading if you're uncertain (which you
should do on any downloaded executable as a matter of habit....)

Thanks. I will try that suggestion when I come back from vacation on December
9th.

Steve,
Thanks for the information that you suggested concerning my plight on FP. I
downloaded and ran the program yesterday (after getting back from my
vacation), and it worked great. You're a godsend. I'd never tried these
forums before, but now I'll look to them for suggestions to problems I have
with my computer and software. Many thanks,
Tileman
