Publishing problem - please help

[Guest]

I maintain 2 websites that I created in FrontPage 2002. They reside on 2
separate servers. I am having the same problem when trying to publish both
webs, making me think it's a problem on my end and not the servers. I have
been successful in publishing up until recently.

When I try to publish (File/Publish Web), I select the proper destination
and then the box pops up for entering a user name and password. I enter this
information and click OK. The box just keeps coming back time after time. I
click cancel and I get a message saying "A web does not exist at (whatever
location I tried to publish to) Would you like Frontpage to create a web at
this location?" If I click OK, it says it's unable to open the location and
lists a few reasons which are mostly server related. The people who hosts my
sites say they can access them and it is not a problem on their end.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Make sure the webs have the FP SE
- try browsing to the home page in IE and use File Edit w/ FP to see if they open in FP

Depends on how you are publishing
- FTP (a server w/o the FP SE)
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318272
- HTTP (a server w/ the FP SE)
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/198523/EN-US/
(you do not use a folder name w/ http)
