Help with uploading site via ftp

I managed to upload the web site via ftp in dreamweaver. The problem I am having is there was an existing site already on the server. I thought when I "put" the files for the new web site it would overwrite the existing files when it "put" the index.html file. All of my files were uploaded, but when I go to the web site url the new site files do not come up, only the old files. If I type the extension of /index.html the new site files come up. Can anyone help me figure out what I am missing? I need my new site files to come up when they type in the url without typing /index.html Thanks.

What's the web address?
Is there more than one index file in the root folder on the server?
e.g. index.htm, index.html, index.php etc
Have you cleared the browser cache? Your browser may be showing you files stored in its memory rather than downloading fresh files from the server.
Although DW should overwrite old files on the server, it's good practice sometimes to consciously delete what you don't want to avoid filename clashes.

Working with remote site via FTP - getting html only

I''m using DW to remotely work with the website via FTP. Is
it possible to make it NOT download all the assosiated files with
the html, that I'm edtiting? I switched on the prompts in getting
and putting stuff, but it still tries to download or upload
additional stuff. I need it to deal only with html.
Thanks for any clues.

Works good? Make one silly mistake and you are toast.
Use a version control system instead. DW has a primitive one
in
Checkin/Checkout, but it may be all you need.
I would NEVER do what you are doing in a multi-user
environment....

Help with uploading site to Internet (was: I'm Having Trouble Putting)

I just created my first Dreamweaver site and I'm having trouble putting it on the internet. My index page goes (minus 2 images) but none of the other pages go. I checked the site's links and there are no broken links. When I pull up the remote view, all pages and images are listed. Any idea why they're not online?

If they are showing up on your remote view, they are online. Chances are you just need to clear your browser's cache to get a fresh download of the pages/images.
If that doesn't do it, there are a few things to check...
Servers are CaSe SenSitiVe. INDEX.HTML, Index.html and index.html would all be different files to a server, but not your local OS. Links will work locally, but not on the server. Make sure your links exactly match the case structure of the file names they are pointing to.
Verify your server root directory (public, www, ht_docs, etc) IS NOT within your local site. You need to be transferring only the content of your local site folder (local root) to your server's root folder. If you have that server root directory in your local site, you may be uploading to a redudnant folder. Posting a screenshot of your expanded Files window (click the two square button) while connected to show the server next to your local files would determine if this happened.

Can anyone help with uploading photos from iPad to Facebook. Thanks

Can anyone help with uploading photos fom iPad to Facebook? Thanks

What app are you to trying to use ? You can't upload photos to Facebook via Safari, but a number of the Facebook apps support it e.g. the 'official' app : http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook/id284882215?mt=8 (thought it's optimised for the iPhone/iPod Touch it does support uploading photos), Friendly For Facebook (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/friendly-for-facebook/id400169658?mt=8)

I am presuming that without these key pieces of the puzzle one cannot deploy to the iPhone. Can someone from Apple confirm (or correct me)
I've emailed Apple asking for clarification but I haven't heard back yet. I imagine we'll all learn what's going on at about the same time. And yes, until you get a certificate you cannot upload your apps to the iPhone (within the SDK rules).

Please help with any or all: FTP, HTML, .Mac unpub'ing

Dear Helpers,
I too, build my site with iWeb and published to Mac, only to discover that the site was not "built in HTML" so I could not get help with SEO later on. (Then I read a Varrkgirl entry that seems to say that indeed once published, the site does contain HTML code. I am a novice and I don't "see" the code on my published pages..what do I know?) I was told "rebuild your site in HTML", transfer to new host via FTP.
Sooo, I had someone look at the site, put in the HTML code, and then he gave it to me on a disk which I can load onto my computer. I have been told to publish to a new host, via FTP Cyberduck (I see there's a tutorial for that here too) and unpublish my .Mac one. Don't know what in what order to do this.
I need help prioritzing tasks please. and to know if there is an easier way perhaps or if this should/could be avoided. Ultimately, I want a site in HTML code on my published site so that I can get some SEO help with later on. When I published to a folder, I do see code but if I simply upload this to another host would that take care of the whole issue? (i.e. dump the disk my person worked on, etc.)
re: HTML (could I have done this myself with Text Edit? If so, then is there a way to do so at this point, since my site is published to .Mac presently?) If I want to build/change current pages in the future using iWeb I want to know how, and then how to move changes to a new host.
re: Unpublishing my site at .Mac (when? it would seem like before I use FTP but if for some reason FTP'ing does not work then I am without my site, right?)
re:my laundry (really out of hand since beginnng this process of totally ignoring one's life for the web..)
Sincere thanks

HTML:
iWeb pages certainly ARE html code. You just don't edit the code in iWeb. If you need to add some code afterwards, try this:

How to upload site to FTP Host on Yahoo ?

Just finished building a website in Adobe Muse and am a little confused on the info it requires. The website I am trying to replace is "yincae.com" so would that be both the domain name as well as the host directory? Because everytime I put that info, I get an error "Path does not exist". Any help would be useful.

Hello,
In order to upload it to the your hosting Sever via FTP, you need to get this information from your Hosting service provider.
The host directorty s generally not same a domain name. It is the folder on the server where you with to upload it. In case you need to upload it to "Root" folder then you can leave it blank and then upload it.
In case it should be inside some folder in Rot then you can use "/folder name" and so on.
Hope this helps.

Sachin

Request help with restricting site access

I have posted before, and received a mix of condescension and
such, but I am okay with that. I know very little about web design,
but I am willing to learn.
I built a website for my lab (home.uchicago.edu/~beilock) and
the professor for whom I work would like a password protected
portion of the site. Previous advice led me to try PHP/MySQL (for a
newbie like me, these terms were foreign), and I downloaded and
followed all of Dreamweaver's help section and to no avail (it says
cannot connect to FTP host)...and I have tried many things to fix
that, but could not.
Anyway, so this post is for multiple purposes. 1.
Opinions/Advice on the website; 2. Solutions to my connection
problem; 3. simpler alternatives to making a site restricted (I
know nothing of ColdFusion, but if it is easier, please let me
know)
I don't mind being condescended to or berated if you help me
out successfully, in fact, let that be your motivation.
Any help appreciated,
Jamie

Use coldfusion it is the best out there/ quick and easy to
learn. Check out easycfm.com (they have a great tutorial about
security and restricting access)and post any questions there or on
the adobe coldfusion forum.
If you don[t know anything thenm the quickest language to
learn is coldfusion. You then have to decide if you are going to
use access database or mysql. If it is a huge site use mysql if not
use access. Access is like excel and is easy to use, mysql you will
need to use a program like navicat (google it) to connect to the db
and be able to display it like access. They both come with nearly
all hosts. Who does your hosting ask them how to connect via ftp.
You will need a username, password and hostname as minimum. I
imagine you arent trying to connect to RDS at this stage most hosts
dont allow this(remote development)
Well Good luck!!

Why does the site manager create c:\ folders for files that don't belong to the site via FTP?

Hello everyone,
now I've been using Dreamweaver since Ultradev 1.0 and I have just recently upgraded to CS 5.5 Web Edition. Before that I used CS3. I've allways been very satisfied with Macromedia and Adobe products until now
Now I don't know whats happened in the last few years but I am getting the impression that the quality of Dreamweaver used to be alot more stable.
Developing for more than half my life I understand that bugs are usual and that not everything can be cared for, but to be quite honest I also know that there are bugs that just should not happen when you ship a product.
On the other hand I do love some of the enhancements that have come with 5.5, for example the Javascript Framework integration and jQuery code hinting features but what I really cannot understand is why the heck is Dreamweaver automatically uploading files that do not belong to the currently open site to the ftp server? I cannot think of any scenario in which this would be appropriate behaviour. I'd understand it if the files somehow contained links (CSS, JS, PHP, etc.) to the currently open site, but they don't! Dreamweaver simply sets out, every now and again, to creating a totally "dumb" folder structure on my ftp servers when I open a file from outside of the site - which I do very often to copy code I used in other projects.
It's just frustrating having to cleanup the ftp servers because Dreamweaver created folders like this "c:\localhost_root_folder\client_folder\client_project_folder\www\.... and so on", and saves a file in there that has nothing to do with the currently open site.
Now I've looked for settings that would supress this behaviour but I could'nt find any.
Also, I really don't want to stop using the automatic upload function because it speeds up development time significantly.
Does anyone know how to work around this issue, or even better, does anyone know why this behaviour is happening and what it's purpose is?
Thanks in advance.
David

Dreamweaver doesn't "automatically upload" anything unless you have it set to on save. This is a bad practice if you aren't 100% sure of what you're doing. You may see it as a time saver, but if you have to go back two or three times and clean everything up, it isn't. Additionally, you select what is uploaded or not uploaded. If you choose to upload the entire root folder every time, then Dreamweaver will upload everything inside it... not automatically, but because you chose it.
As to the "dumb folder structure", when you define a site, YOU and YOU ALONE define the folder structure. If you are working in multiple sites at once (bad practice unless your are extremely meticulous about details) odds are you will sooner or later save a file from one site, with another site open in the Files Panel and Dreamweaver will save the file to the open site, not the one you opened it from (see why it's a bad practice to do this?).
It's just frustrating having to cleanup the ftp servers because
Dreamweaver created folders like this
"c:\localhost_root_folder\client_folder\client_project_folder\www\... .
and so on", and saves a file in there that has nothing to do with the
currently open site.
It reads like you have defined a testing server and are using it when you put files. C:\localhost is a testing server protocol. If you are testing files and then attempt to put files from the testing server instead of the root folder, they will have the filepath from the testing server and not from the root folder file structure. Again a bad practice unless you are meticulous about details and remember to switch back to the root folder from the testing server panel BEFORE you put files.

Help with new site index.html

I'm new to website design/hosting/etc so I apologize for the newbie questions. I'm using DW8
I have a hobby site on a free host and have been using it for 2+ years without problems. Recently I decided to re-design the website. When I uploaded the new website in place of the old one the host kept saying that the file was not found. So I re-loaded the old site and everything worked fine. So just for kicks I uploaded the NEW index.html file in place of the old one, and again the website could not be found.
So is there something actually wrong with my NEW index.html root file, or do I need to do something else in DW to upload a new site in place of an old one? I have no idea what could be wrong with the new index file; I created it just like I did the old one.
Thanks in advance, joel

Before you upload next time click on Site->Advanced->FTP log. See if you get any errors with that.
If you are not and the files are uploading ok, you may need to get in touch with your host. If something is not working on the account it could be something on their end, whether it be configuration errors or some other random occurrence.
