Background picture missing when post at non .mac-server

Hi, I am new at this so you have to excause me if I ask stupid qustions.
I’ve just made a homepage using Iweb. When published at:
http://web.mac.com/katamaleegarden/ it looks the way I want it to look, when published at:
http://maleegarden.com the background picture isnt there. What have I done wrong?
MiniMac Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Welcome to the discussions, Malee.
It looks like the problem is the name of that image (and one other image on your page AND other images on other pages). .Mac can handle names like these
http://web.mac.com/katamaleegarden/iWeb/7CDA7829-0DE9-11DC-AD00-000D93787A30/Ima ges/balkongfontän1-2.jpg
http://web.mac.com/katamaleegarden/iWeb/7CDA7829-0DE9-11DC-AD00-000D93787A30/Ima ges/Orkidé8-1.jpg
But when you post those to another server, they become
balkongfontaÌˆn1-2.jpg
OrkideÌ8-1.jpg
The easiest way around it is to change those names so that they don't use any special characters, like
balkongfontan1-2.jpg
Orkide8-1.jpg
If you go back through and change your image file names so that they don't have those characters, you shouldn't have a problem with missing images on these pages either:

Can you post Web-Gallery to a non .Mac server?

iPhoto 08 and web gallery look pretty neat.
Do you have to post the Web Galleries to .Mac or can you use a different server.
Would like to continue post our college sports photos to our campus (OS X) server using web-gallery.

Jack, I don't think you can post web galleries to a non .Mac server. There seems to be a lot of support behind the scenes that makes Web Gallery work as it does. Normal HTML doesn't work like that.
What you could do, which would bring some of the reflections-on-black look, is send the photos to iWeb and use the export HTML option (not sure what it's called) in the File menu to create a gallery that you could host on a non-.Mac server. It wouldn't look exactly the same but you'd get whatever is possible without the .Mac-supplied functionality.

Comments Not Working on Website - published to non-.mac server

Hi there. I've read on a few non-apple sites of users having trouble with Comments and some other functions of their websites, built in iWeb, not working when they publish to a non-.mac server. I've built my website in iWeb, published via CyberDuck to a BlueHost server -- but now users can not post comments on my blog.
Has anyone found a way to fix this issue??
It seems incredibly pointless to even now have my own domain. I'm super close to giving up on iWeb all together because of this ridiculous issue.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, blog comments are a MobileMe only feature along with the hit counter etc.
You have to publish to MobileMe if you want these features.
There are workarounds however. If you want to continue to use an iWeb blog, then you can use a third party comments feature. Take a look here http://www.intensedebate.com. It is free to set up on the site and all you then do is copy and paste the code into an html snippet on the page you want comments to appear in whatever format you want them.
Your other option is to ditch iWeb and if it is just a blog you want, use something like http://www.wordpress.com. This is free and you don't need a domain name and the blog is published on WordPress servers.
Your other option for a blog is http://www.posterous.com.
The iWeb blog system is not that good, so you might look into changing if a blog is what you want rather than a website.

Using unix 'diff' command to publish iweb to non .mac server

It is a common problem that you can't upload incremental changes to a website a web server that is not a .mac. Recently I found that the unix (shell) 'diff -qr' works nicely for this.
However I can't seem to get this to work in automator. That is where I need some help.
What I did :
I have an iweb website in my directory
Documents/website
I made a second directory where I store my uploaded version of the website:
Documents/websiteonserver
Using a shell script I want to compare the differences between these two directories using the diff command in a shell script. When I run 'diff -qr websiteonserver website' in a terminal window, it gives a nice overview of which files are changed and which ones are new. When workin with iWeb this saves me a lot of time uploading my homepage to a non .mac server. I can only upload the changed files, which is usually only a few. Diff does not look at timestamps (which are useless in the iweb case) but it actually looks into a file and with the -q option it stops when it finds a difference. With the -r added (-qr) it also looks through all subdirectories and compares files with the same name.
I like to automate this process so that my wife can update our family homepage with just one mouseclick (or as few as possible)
Unfortunately the diff command in automator gives an error, and there's no info on why it does this.
The commands I gave:
cd Documents
diff -qr websiteonserver website
(using PWD i verified that the path is correct like this). The only stumbling block for automator seems to be the diff command. Anybody any suggestions on this?
The next challenge is to take the diff output and use that to upload only changed/new files to a ftp server.
Any help / ideas are welcome
Greetings,
Adriaan

Dear Cyclosaurus,
I used a single command as us specified. It really helped to add the path to the directories I wanted to compare. So now at least I got it two work partly:
It seems to work only if I compare two files. Comparing directories still does not work. Maybe diff generates some kind of error code when doing this??? It does not do that in the shell.
If I compare all files in directories + subdirectories , the workflow does not work. It seems as if it only accepts a single output line or so from the diff function. If there is more output (or maybe some newline character) the workflow halts. Very peculiar.
mmm.... I will try to make a shell script which I can run in automator. In the script file I will then generate a txt file. Then the automator can run the script and then it can open the resulting file in a text editor. See if that works.
mmm nope. I made a script like this:
#!/bin/bash
diff -qr ~/Documents/websiteon_theserver/ ~/Documents/website/ > ~/Documents/logfile.txt
I modified the atributes to executable and I could run it from the command line. The logfile.txt was created and has the correct info. I could not run it from automator...
I did copy the last line from the script into automator. And also there it does create the logfile, but the automator still says there was an error and stops.
maybe I should try Applescript, were it not that I am totally clueless on that language...

Non mac server publishing

When publishing to a non .mac server certain features do not work... any way to get them to work. rss for one
Are there any other features that I need to know about that may not work?
Thanks
Mac Book Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) Iweb 1.1.2

RSS should definitely work. It's just a matter of entering the correct domain name in the "Publish to Folder" dialog box and also uploading the correct items to your server. I can help you with this if you desire.
As far as other .Mac only features that won't work for you... these include blog commenting, search, password protection, the enhanced photo template slideshows, .Mac counters, etc.
Of course, you can find replacements for all of these features...

TimeCapsule Wifi unstable (when on a non-Mac devices)

I have a TimeCapsule and I connect many devices to Wifi: --> iMac,Windows Vista PC, Samsung Galaxy Tab with Android, Iphones, etc..
I am having wifi crashes mainly when connected on a Vista PC or Android Tablet. Suddenly the internet crashes and I need to reconnect manually. When streaming online content (video from Youtube or audio from interent radios) fron non-MAc the crash will happen at some point (sometimes earlier, sometimes later)....but this is not limited to content streaming as it also happens when surfing the web.
I noticed that the wifi network disappears from the list for a while, as if AirPort restarts. I need then to reconnect manually.
Whern on a Mac device, this seems not to be a problem and I do not experience crashes....
I upgraded firmware to the latest version, but nothing changed.
Does anyone know this issue and the reason why and how to solve it?
Unfortunately my experience with Mac products is that if you remain within the "Mac world" using Mac products, your are good to go, however compatibility with other brands is an issue, and this is a great inconvenience when we talk about an Air Port!...
Thanks a lot for any advvice as I tried everything to solve this and this forum is my last hope.

Different products use different wireless chipsets.. even apple have used different wireless cards in each Generation of the TC and each update of the computers they build. But at least Apple only works with a small range of hardware and can sort out the drivers. Drivers can and usually are the problem, although some wireless chipsets really just don't work well together.. you will notice this on any brand.. to brand difference. Wireless is voodoo still .. it is about 50% science and 80% black arts. (in voodoo you don't need to add up to 100%).
Vista .. shudder.. was built with known issues in the wireless management that were never fixed. Upgrade that computer to XP.. or win7. Vista is just a dog. it will be faster and more stable. Replace the wireless card to match the TC.
Some of the earlier Andoid also are known to have issues.. check if there is firmware update or anything available to help. Android had a really nasty bug. Cannot remember much about it now.. so google.
I would suggest you at least make the wireless have some hope of working.
You will need to do the following.
1. Use SMB names not Apple type naming. SMB is short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric. Apple uses spaces and particularly apostrophe.. don't. That applies to all names in the TC, so change the TC name and wireless name.. give a different name to 5ghz.
2. Use WPA2 Personal (AES) security. Use a passkey of 8-12 characters same rules as above.
3. Lock the radio channels. TC is set to auto by default and will wander channels to find most clear.. the wandering is a problem.
4. You might need to either lock IP via dhcp reservation or manually set IP on the device.. Often issues involve address failing and constant reconnections. It will eventually fill the table.
5. You must use 5.6 utility on the Mac so you can check the log of the TC and actually see the wireless clients.
6. Do not expect vista to get any better.. but at least download the latest driver for the exact wireless card used from the wireless manufacturer.
If none of this works.. use the lateral thinking approach..
Get a cheap TP-Link, edimax etc wireless router. Use it in AP mode.. and plug it into the TC. Use a different name and wireless channel to the TC. Use that for your non-apple products.. it costs $30 or so for N-lite which is all you need. Simple easy effective. That doesn't mean that vista will ever work of course.. vista is fundamentally flawed. Nor can I guarantee early android.. but at least it will be right kind of product.

RSS button on non mac server

Greetings,
Very new at this. I want to install an RSS button on my blog. The mac button doesn't work on Yahoo. Any suggestion?
Any reaction as well regarding the Technorati button?
Counting button?
Many thanks.

I'm not sure why you are saying that the RSS subscribe button isn't working at Yahoo. This is most likely due to the fact that you entered the incorrect host address in the "Publish to Folder" dialog window.
For example...if your hosting account is accessed by typing in http://www.yourdomain.com then you must type this into the URL box of the "Publish to Folder" dialog window. Then when you upload to your host, you must upload the two items that iWeb puts into the folder....
My Folder
\__ index.html
\__ mysite folder
Don't upload the enclosing folder (My Folder)....just upload the index.html file and the mysite folder, so that your server directory structure looks like...
http://www.mydomain.com
\__ index.html
\__ mysite folder
It is important to keep the relationship between the index.html file and the mysite folder intact as published by iWeb....otherwise your RSS feed URL will not work.
On a non-.Mac button, the RSS feed and Podcast subscribe buttons should work fine. The Apple counter does not work on non-.Mac servers. You will have to look into other services like http://www.statcounter.com for that.

Ajax slideshow on non .Mac server

check this out:

Hi Jim,
Like to give it another try, hopefully this host won't crack down on me:

Can I post an Iweb blog on a non-.mac server. I.e. Goddady?

When I try to post an I web blog to my Godaddy account the blog does not display. I know the apple materials state that comments and searching options will not work but as far as I can see there is nothing about it not working at all.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Please provide your url. Perhaps you have not uploaded all the required files. Check Safari > Window > Activity to see if something is marked missing.

GL Account Missing when Posting Up GRPO

The scenario happen like this:
1) Customer creating a PO with 3 items.
2) One of the item that my client created needed to change warehouse, so they make an amendment through clicking into the Item master data, and change the warehouse from WSE 01 to HQ.
3) Then in the PO, they deleted the item line, added new row and selected the same item code again, update.
4) Then they copy the PO to GRPO.
5) Then they have the procedure to update the serial number for the machine.
6) After that, when they want to post the GRPO, it has an error message showing: G/L Account is missing [Goods Receipt PO - Rows - Warehouse Code][line:3] [Message 131-46]
Any idea on this issue?

Hi Micheal.......
You need to set all the mandatory settings required for the transaction documents.
You need to set the GL account determination. You need to set the Warehouse account GL
You need to set the Item Group account GL.
You need to set the Freight accounts.
You need to set the tax accounts.
You need to set the landed cost account......... Etc........

Cost center not updated when posting in non leading ledger

Hello FI Experts
I have two ledgers - Leading and Non Leading Ledger.
When I posted expense entry it updated both the ledgers and updated cost center value. This updated value i checked in cost center report KSB1.
For Ex: Rs. 1,00,000
Now I posted another expense entry in non leading ledger only. For Ex: Rs.50,000
How ever this entry didn't updated cost center report value. I checked in report KSB1
So I want to know:
1. Are there any cost center reports / profit center reports in controlling module where I can get non leading ledger specific amount in cost centers and profit centers
2. Is it possible to run assesment and distribution cycle, cost reposting and other CO transactions for non leading ledger amount
Deepak

Hi Deepak.
You can verify is the cost center was posted on document running tcode SE16N on the FALGFLEXA table, put the document number to do research.
After you can trying to post the new document through Tcode FB50L choosing or not a legder specific, then verify the document was posted correctly running the Tcodes SKb1 or Se16N with FAGLFLEXA table again.
Also you can check this link Checking the Allocation of General Ledgers to Cost Centres

Printer Settings dialog missing when printing to another Mac with Bonjour

I want Photoshop to manage my color settings rather than my Epson 4800 or Epson SPRX 580 printers, so in the print dialog box I select the "Printer Color Management" tab and set color adjustments to the OFF position. This works fine as long as the printer is connected directly to my MacBook or my MacBook Pro. But if I try to send a job on my MacBook Pro via bonjour to either of the printers when it is connected to my MacBook, the print dialog is missing the choices of "Printer Color Management", "Printer Settings", etc.
All that is available are things like "Layout, Cover Page, Scheduler, Summary." The "Printer Settings, Color Management" options only show up on either computer when connected directly to the printer.
Is there a way to get those other choices (Printer Settings, Color Management) when printing over a bonjour network?
I'm on Mac OS 10.5.6 on the MacBook Pro and Mac OS 10.4.10 on the MacBook. I have downloaded all the driver updates from Epson and deleted and added the printers again with the same result.

HP must have release a driver update because we no longer encounter the problem.

Part of picture missing when printing

I have Quark Xpress, which I export into Adobe so it's easier to transport to the printer, etc.
Everything transfers fine and all the pictures show up entirely. When I print it, however, one picture has a "block" missing. It is only the one picture, all the other pictures on that page and the other 40 pages print perfectly.
Anyone have any ideas?
I tried re-exporting it from Quark, checking in Quark for any problems with the picture. The page prints fine in Quark -- Just when I try to print from Adobe, it removes a chunk. Please help!
Thanks!

Similar to Mikey's response… If the logo has a spot color in it and it overlaps any raster image (or vice versa), then the overlapping part will appear white if "Overprint Preview" is turned off in Acrobat. This is really a bug. One possible fix is to export the PDF as an PDF/X-4:2010 in the "Standard" drop down—this preserves all transparency layering without flattening.
This issue causes frequent headaches and confusion in my workplace, especially since a lot of people want/need to hold on to the PDF/X-1a standard, which flattens the artwork.

BUG: registered servers missing when password contains non-alphanumeric

I have a fresh installation of DS7 using Sun Java Web Server 7 to host DSCC7. Using DSCC7 web interface I click New Server and the procedure appears to complete successfully (no errors during creation, registration successful). However in the web interface the new server is not listed.
From the command line the new server is listed.
$ /opt/SUNWdsee7/bin/dsccreg list-servers
Hostname Port sPort Type Owner Flags iPath Description
www-c-directory 389 636 DS nobody /var/opt/SUNWdsee7/internal
Cause: the DSCC administrator's password contained non-alphanumeric characters (e.g. a left-angle bracket plus a few other punctuation characters) with about 10 characters in total.
Solution: from the web interface I navigated to Settings, Directory Service Managers, and changed the password for "admin" to a simpler password containing only alphanumeric characters.
Resolution: the registered servers now appear in the DSCC7 web interface as well as the command line. Oddly I can now return the password back to its original value and the servers still appear in the web interface.

The software has been installed inside a Whole Container, and the container was manually sysidcfg'd after the zone's installation (before the software installation) using zlogin -C.

HELP PLEASE: Trying to upload site to non .mac server

Hi there,
I am a complete newbie when it comes to uploading a site to a server.
I have completed the site I made in iWeb, have not included spaces in the title for each page. All the movies are in .mov or .mp4 format. all my pictures have been attached through iPhoto. I have published it to a folder on my desktop. I am trying to upload to my cousin's server which he created himself using Cyberduck. Unfortunetly he is away the the moment so I can not ask for his assitance. I have the password and user name to the server, & have tried uploading the site once before. nothing came up, apart from a blank page with a few folders that were orignally there before I uploaded the site. Cyberduck says the upload was successful, clearly it wasn't. All the files and folders are shown within the program.
Can anyone help me? I need to upload the site by today, thanks...

nothing came up, apart from a
blank page with a few folders that were orignally
there before I uploaded the site.
This usually means you failed to upload the index.html file. You must upload two items: the index.html file and the folder which has the same name as your site does inside the iWeb app.
Here are some tips:
