"Internal error: the disk web operation terminated unexpectdly."

[James M. Haberman]

Help!



I have a web that I created in Front Page 2000 version 4.02.6625 on the
local drive of a networked PC running Windows XP Pro version 5.1.2600,
Service Pack 1). FrontPage is installed on the same local drive. I've
uploaded the driver from my local drive to a remote web server repeatedly
via FTP with no problems, and the site performs flawlessly. Two problems,
however:



1.) When I attempt to publish the web to a new location on the same local
hard drive, I receive this error message: "Internal error: the disk web
operation terminated unexpectdly." [sic]



2.) When I attempt to import a file larger than 1 MB into the web, I receive
this error message: "An error occurred accessing your FrontPage web files.
Authors - if authoring against a web server, please contact the webmaster
for this server's site. Webmasters - please see the server's system log for
more details."



NOTE: I have the same results when attempting both tasks with the same web
on a Windows 2000 Pro (version 5.0.2195, Service Pack 4) laptop running
FrontPage version 4.0.2717.



Problem no. 1.) is the most critical, but I don't have a clue as to how to
attack it.



I attempted to solve problem no. 2.) by adding the string value
vti_maxformcontentlength with the data value set to 100000000 to the

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\All
Ports

key in the Windows registry as detailed in
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=814332. However, this had no effect.



At this point, I'm in serious danger of losing my sanity. Any ideas,
especially regarding problem no. 1?



Thanks!

Both are probably related to problems w/ the >1 MB file
On your server you can increase the limit
There is a command that you can run on the server that will increase the anonymous upload size for a given web site. The command
(for all ports) is as follows :
owsadm -o setproperty -pn vti_maxuploadcontentlength -pv 3000000
The Owsadm.exe can be found at
C:\Program files\common files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\50\bin folder
The size at the end of the line is in bytes.

Thanks for the suggestion, Stefan. In the meantime, I simply upgraded to
FrontPage 2003 which immediately solved both problems. Based on what I've
read, one or more Windows updates caused problems with earlier versions of
FrontPage. Just a coincidence, no doubt. Certainly Microsoft couldn't have
been engaged in planned obsolescence. )
