"contribute cannot saved your changes on the website's shared settings on your website"

Hello,
I have this message : "contribute cannot saved your changes on the website's shared settings on your website".
We use Contribute 3 (with windows 7)
Could anyone explain me this message et give me a solution?
Thnaks a lot (and sorry for my bad english...)

What do you mean by "turning off the Dreamweaver
administration"?
Is this really the best way to solve the problem? Re-creating
the site from scratch (in terms of users and possibly roles) is not
something I'd like to do...

  • "Contribute cannot verify your connection information"

    Please can somebody help a non-techie from England (New Forest) who has hit a brick wall when using Contribute 3?
    I have a community (voluntary and not-for-profit) website as a sub-domain on my business website.  Don't ask me how I managed it, but I created the community website entirely on the Contribute software.  For unknown reasons, it would not allow me to edit and upload pages etc., even though I have been doing this for some time.  I uninstalled the program, re-installed it and starting again tried to make a connection.
    I got the error message "contribute cannot verify your connection information.  The path given does not match the provided website's homepage; or there may be a permission problem.  Please contact your administrator for assistance".
    Well, obviously I can't administer the site yet because I cannot get a connection!  I have asked my web-hosting company to verify the information I need and he tells me that he is able to get into the site with no problem using the same information - he is using contribute CS4.
    This is killing me with frustration because I so need to get some vital information out to our 34k residents which is time-critical (by 3rd Dec latest).  I have put so much work into this without moaning, but am now at the end of my patience and feel like throwing the towel in.  The site is onevoice.officeoverload.com if you would like to see what I mean.
    Thanks for reading this - apologies that it is long.  If anyone out there can help I would be so very grateful to hear from you
    Best wishes

    Sue,
    Maybe I can help you as I just solved my own connection problem after trying to get help from Adobe online support, phone support, and this forum for over a month.
    You will need to have access to your Contribute Server installation.  If you are using a MS Windows based pc and it was installed using the defaults it should be located here: C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Contribute Publishing Server.  Under the CPS folder there will be a number of folders but you only need to open the database folder.     Inside that folder will be a folder(s) with it's name being a number [1,2,3 - depending on the number of sites that you connect to]
    Inside each of the site folders there will be a groups folder and user folder and a file named connection_key.stc.
    I moved all of my site folders to another folder I created off the root folder [C:/contribute database backup].
    That has the same effect as deleting the folders, but gives you the option to restore them if you need too.
    Then I open the Contribute Client and it allowed me access and I deleted the existing folders and drafts.
    Then I went to the site that I wanted to connect to and recreated the connection using the prompts.  I had to recreate all of the users and assign their roles for the each site.
    I did have a problem recreating one of my sites because it gave me the message that there were "drafts that needed to be deleted or exported", but it wouldn't let me do either of those things.  I did a seach of my computer for the word "draft" and it found two files buried in some hidden file.  I deleted those files and then I was able to recreate that web site connection.
    I think the connection_key.stc file is the important file that needs to be removed as it contains an encrypted string of data.
    In fact I also copied the connection_key.stc from one site folder to another and then I was able to get into the site, delete its connection (it was connecting to the wrong site of course) and then recreate the connection.
    I hope this helps.

  • Contribute cannot verify your connection information... Please notify your administrator."

    After a initial network error last night, The Shared Settings
    file was zapped. Contribute decided I was no longer the Admin, and
    the Editor's connection also disappered.
    I found the note that's pasted here, in the Contribute
    Forums.
    "connect to your server (using 3rd party ftp client) and
    delete the _mm folder located on the root of the website - recreate
    your connections and that should solve the issue"
    I deleted the _mm folder. When I tried creating the
    connection anew, contribute said, "Contribute cannot verify your
    connection information... home/justandpeacefu/html/. Please notify
    your administrator." Now it's the same error every time. I am
    unable to make the new _mm folder.
    Contribute Tech support sent me an email which didn't help.
    It's at the very bottom.
    Items 1-4 in the email are not the problem.
    I am able to connect to the server, after the tech support
    person reset something there.
    I can make folders, and pages in FTP application;
    there are no special characters;
    permissions are fine;
    Item 5 did not have any effect. I turned off Apple's personal
    firewall, quit contribute, and tried again. Unsuccessful. Same
    error.
    ANY SUGGESTIONS, ANYONE?
    Text from Tech Support:
    As we have discussed on the phone earlier today, here are
    common causes of getting a "cannot verify connection information"
    when creating a connection in Contribute:
    1. Not enough permissions on the root of the website - Make
    sure you have enough permissions on the root of the website. Using
    third party FTP software, verify that you are able to create
    folders, upload and rename files, and delete files on the root of
    the website.
    2. There are special characters on the folder name of the
    folder you are trying to connect to - Avoid special characters as
    Contribute is not so compatible with them.
    3. Incompatible FTP connection settings: When you are asked
    to enter your FTP account information in the connection wizard,
    click the advanced button. Make sure that the only options selected
    are: "Choose FTP Server Settings Manually" and "Use Passive FTP to
    connect to the server".
    4. Verify that the FTP server is pointing to your web server.
    Example: upload any temporary HTML file on the root of your
    website; when you visit the URL:
    http://[your_server
    you should see the page render; You should not get a "Page cannot
    be found".
    5. Turn off any software firewall / antivirus running on the
    background to isolate possibly conflicting processes.

    I'm having the same problem as andres in the original post,
    the message comes up when trying to Continue out of the "Remote
    Path Info" box. I am able to browse to the location so Contribute
    does know its there. This is with Contribute 4 on Mac OS X
    connecting to a Linux server.
    I manually ran the FTP connection tests via command line:
    http://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19496
    and all tests passed successfully
    I also downloaded and ran FTP Connection Checker (on my
    Windows machine) at:
    http://store1.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19012
    and passed all tests successfully.
    The wording with these tests imply that they are the same
    tests run by Contribute, i doubt that to be the case since these
    pass but Contribute fails.
    I have tried this with the site root and _mm folder set to
    permissions of 777 with no luck. I am able to connect and edit
    successfully with Dreamweaver and FTP with Transmit (Mac OS X).
    I'm about out of things to try and my deadline to train the
    client is coming up. Any further insight on this would sure be
    appreciated!

  • How can I incorporate DreamWeaver to upload all my images onto the website template in filezilla and make changes to the website template?

    I have all my images and website template in filezilla under hostgator as the web server, and how can I incorporate DreamWeaver so I can make changes to the website?

    You dont have to put everything onto your webserver first. You can start with DW locally (with all files stored on your computer) before uploading a completed site to your server.
    You can follow these instructions to define/ setup your site locally in DW: Defining a site in Dreamweaver
    And check out this tutorial to create your website: Creating your first website – Part 1: Setting up your site and project files | Adobe Developer Connection
    Then follow this to sync your files to your webserver: Adobe Dreamweaver * Getting and putting files to and from your server
    Good luck.

  • Closing and saving spreadsheet changes in the same document?

    Closing and saving spreadsheet changes in the same document? There are several drop-down options for saving a spreadsheet in Numbers except saving to the existing spreadsheet. Excel has a 'save' or 'save as' options what are the equivilents in Numbers?
    Thanks for any response,
    Larry

    Hi Larry,
    Menu > File > Save (command s) will save the document. If it has not already been saved, it will offer "Untitled" as the name. Type a name and choose a folder.
    Numbers (and any app on OS X Mavericks) has Menu > File > Save, and Menu > File > Duplicate.
    To see Save As... hold down the option key when using the File Menu. "Duplicate" will change to "Save As..."
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Why the mac claim that the user password that i enter in the smb file sharing settings is incorrect although it is correct?

    why the mac claim that the user password that i enter in the smb file sharing settings is incorrect although it is correct?

    Maybe the Caps Lock key is lighted?
    Is your Apple ID password the same as your user password?

  • There seems to be a problem between my Eudora on my Mac OSX in that when I click on a link in an e-mail, more and more of them only result in the message "Url is not syntactically valid" and cannot make a connection to the websites.

    This seems to be an increasing problem and is occurring between e-mails and company websites which used to function properly. I used to think it was the fault of the website in not making a connection. But now it is occurring in e-mails which used to be successful, so I think it is a problem with Firefox.

    This?

  • When I start de application, I get two messages at once. The first one tells me that there are two upgraded elements and the second one tells me that a customer of mine has made some online changes on the website. Then I can do nothing more.

    Beste forum,
    Ik heb een groot probleem met Muse.
    Als ik het programma opstart en een bestaande website open, krijg ik twee meldingen te zien: de eerste zegt dat er twee geupsamplede bestanden zijn. De tweede dat er online een wijziging heeft plaatsgevonden. Beide vensters zijn vervolgens niet aan te klikken en het programma doet niets meer.@

    The message tells that published version of the site includes some changes which you can synch to your Muse file, is that after sync Muse hangs ? is it with a specific file or any file ?
    If you try to undo the changes , are you able to open the site and work ?
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

  • Firefox will not respond after restarting my computer after making changes in the cookies and history settings

    I make some changes with cookies and cleared my history for today...and then restarted my computer...now firefox will not open...will not respond...should I uninstall firefox and then reinstall it?
    If I uninstall firefox will the changes I made with the cookies and my history be reversed?
    If I were to uninstall and then reinstall firefox will I loose my bookmarks if I do this? or does firefox remember them...so when I reinstall the previous bookmarks are reinstalled too?

    Does Firefox starts up when you first open it after rebooting the computer but hangs the next time you try to start it? If so, then there's a [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1005487 bug] in Firefox 29 where Firefox hangs on exit when the setting "Clear history when Firefox closes" is selected, so that you get an "already running but not responding" error the next time you ttry to start it. In that case, end the firefox.exe process in the Windows Task Manager (or reboot the computer) then reset your Firefox Privacy options and UNCHECK the option "Clear history when Firefox closes". See this article for details:
    [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
    If that's not the problem and Firefox still not open even after rebooting the computer then try starting in Firefox Safe Mode by holding down the shift key while starting Firefox. If Firefox starts then see the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to narrow down the cause.

  • Cannot find the website

    I'm using Contribute CS3 for the first time and going through
    the connection wizard I'm not even able to find the website even
    though I browse to it. It asks if I would like to try and connect
    anyway. I select "yes" add all my ftp info which I know is correct
    because I can connect with other ftp programs. I am able to connect
    to the server, but then when I try and enter the remote path info
    by browsing to the folder (permissions set to 775) and hitting
    continue, it tells me "Contribute cannot verify your connection
    information..." And that is as far as I can get.
    I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.2 and using Contribute 4.1.0.
    P.S. I have had success using previous versions of contribute
    and the site is hosted with Network Solutions on a Unix server.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I'm also having a similar problem. We are running Macromedia
    Contribute 3. It has worked fine for years but a few weeks ago
    started playing up. I can access the website using my Contribute
    connection but cannot set up new connections on different PCs or
    for different users. I can ftp the site from all computers and
    under all user logins but Contribute gets as far as accepting the
    FTP details, but when I browse to where the site is located on the
    server I get the message "Contribute cannot verify your connection
    details".
    Any ideas? I think it must be conflicting with security
    settings somewhere,
    Naomi

  • Supress Prompt 'do you want to save changes to the design of form...

    Using Access 2007 SP2.
    I have an unbound main form(Master page) with a datasheet subform in an mdb.
    Close button is on the main form with the following code 
    DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name, acSaveNo
    I have tried with multiple scenarios but none of them got succeed(Below are those)
    set SourceObject property to "" while Unload
    SetWarnings  False in Form_load
    When I close the form I am prompted with  'do you want to save changes to the design of form...'
    Is there any way to suppress this annoying message?
    Can anyone help on this
    Thanks in advance

    When I close the form I am prompted with  'do you want to save changes to the design of form...'
    Which form is it prompting you about saving, the main form or the subform?  If you close the main form with "DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name, acSaveNo", I wouldn't expect you to get a prompt about saving changes to that form.  But I could
    see you getting a prompt about saving design changes to the subform.  Are you making any design changes to the subform while in form view, such as filtering, sorting, column-resizing, etc?

  • ITunes 9 - Home Sharing Settings and Saved Game Data?

    The new "Home Sharing Settings" feature to automatically transfer applications from one home computer to another is great. However, it seems like there is a huge omission with this feature if you can't transfer your game settings and saved data when you use this option as a way to change computers to sync an iTouch or iPhone.
    Here's my scenario: originally had iTunes on a Windows PC to purchase and sync up my iTouch. Recently bought another iMac and want to use it as my "master" computer to sync up my iTouch. Used the Home Sharing Settings feature to quickly copy all of my songs (with ratings) and apps from the PC to the Mac. Everything great so far.
    Purchased a few more apps in the iTunes store on the iMac. Plugged in the iTouch to copy the new apps, but of course it wants to delete everything and start over (to be expected I guess). But with that I assume all of my saved game data in my 50+ apps will be lost!
    Any suggestions?

    UPDATE: I've now authorized my laptop with my fiance's itunes account and my personal iTunes account, this is key.
    I'm now able to transfer songs from either her laptop or my iMac (where my music is stored for now) as long as the current logged-in Home Sharing account is active. So it's basically like logging into an ftp server, only one connection allowed at a time.
    So just turn off Home Sharing and then turn it back on again, re-enter the other systems iTunes account info and there you go, you can transfer from that one now. Of course this would be simpler if you were just merging two computers/accounts instead of adding in a 3rd laptop like my experiment. You should just have to make sure all computers involved (up to 5) are authorized for all the iTunes accounts involved.
    And yes using the settings button with in the home sharing window, you should be able to automatically sync any new purchases from the current shared account, music, movies, apps, etc.

  • Registry keys for the per-machine proxy settings

    Hello,
    I'm writing a C++ software that's supposed to set proxy settings for all users. I succeeded at disabling the per-user-proxy-settings through the COM Group Policy objects but I cannot find where to define the machine-wide proxy settings. The most
    logical answer was to modify the values under the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings but IE seems to be ignoring them. Any ideas as how to set the proxy settings in this case ? 

    Hi,
    To configure the proxy server settings on a client computer, create the following .reg file to populate the registry with the proxy server information:
    Regedit4
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
    "MigrateProxy"=dword:00000001
    "ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001
    "ProxyHttp1.1"=dword:00000000
    "ProxyServer"="http://ProxyServername:80"
    "ProxyOverride"="<local>"
    In this file, ProxyServer name is the name of your proxy server.
    Thanks!
