I am unable to publish to FTP site or Folder ... errrrrr

I am getting very frustrated! I can publish just fine to Mobleme but I have another site that I publish to an SFTP site which worked fine at first. I upgraded to the 10.6.2 and was getting a SFWordProcessing plug in problem.. I fixed that and all was working fine.
BUT THEN I went to add to my blog and the Entries were listed but no pages showing. I couldn't fix it so I then created a new blog and started over and deleted the old one. I tried publishing it to FTP and got a publishing error. I tried publishing it to local folder (desktop) and it got an unknown publishing error.
I need help immediately!!!! I've called the help line and they haven't gotten back with me yet.

  • How to publish to FTP site NOT mobile me???

    how do i publish the site to an FTP site that is hosting for me? i don't have mobile me and dont want it if i don't have to. please help. thanks!

    As you have posted this in the iWeb 08 forum I am assuming that you are using iWeb 08 which does not have a built in ftp to server option.
    In iWeb 08 you need to select the publish to a folder option and your site will be published to your Home Sites folder - there will be an index file, plus the Site folder of the same name that you named your site in iWeb.
    Next you need to download Cyberduck free from the internet - this is a dedicated ftp program that you use to upload your files to your server. Open Cyberduck and enter your host, username and password details to connect with your host and then upload both your Site folder and your index.html file to your server. Your Site folder needs to be placed in the public_html folder on your server or whichever folder your server requires you to upload to. The index file needs to sit outside this folder to point into it.

  • Iweb publishing free ftp sites

    What free FTP sites can I use to publish my iweb document?

    This one has a free version...
    http://www.000webhost.com
    You need to add this line to the .htaccess file to get it to work...
    php_flag short_open_tag off
    Otherwise, if your are new to FTP, you may be better off with paid hosting to get better service and tech support...

  • Publishing error - unable to publish iWeb 08 site

    After re-making my 30 page site using iWeb 08 due to it destroying my iWeb 07 Domain file - I have tried repeatedly to publish the new site without success. Usually I wait 1.5 hrs while the progress bar goes slowly around, then I invariably get a message saying there ways an "error connecting to the server or network error". It takes 1.5 hrs to tell me this?
    However I clearly am connected to the .Mac server because I get the message earlier on stating that "publishing will continue in the background". Somehow the .Mac server doesn't accept the Domain file. I have published the Domain to a folder on my desktop and the site works fine on the browser when I launch it using the index html file.
    I have sent several iWeb feedback messages concerning this problem so hopefully the boffins will fix it. I have no intention of renewing my .Mac subscription if the Domain file can't actually be published.
    If anyone out there is experiencing the same problem please let me know.

    It's hit or miss with me. My web site is about 30 pages, and about every 4th or 5th time I publish, I get either a "Publish Error. An unknown error occurred." or something about a locked file, try again later. It usually is fixed by choosing to Publish All to .Mac and enduring the 30 minutes or so it takes to process. This last time, however, it got done with the upload (about 100MB) and looked fine. Next time I tried to update one page: bang.
    I'm publishing a blog so the situation can only get worse as pages accumulate.
    There is clearly something wrong and clearly somebody is grasping at straws trying to fix it. Until the engineers at Apple figure out what the problem is and releases a definitive patch, I think we're out of luck.

  • Problem Publishing to FTP site-I think it has something to do with encoding

    When I publish to my ftp server, the pages all get messed up. Titles get codes inserted into them ( is always inserted), special characters I have inserted into the text get messed up (like apostrophes, bullets, etc. etc.) It's a royal mess. I end up having to go in and fix it all by hand, which takes WAY more time than just coding the page by hand; I chose to try iWeb because I thought it would be easier and faster. It ends up being much slower!
    You can see the site here: http://www.yorku.ca/earmstro/glossonomia
    I had the site all fixed up, using a 3rd party ftp client to upload, but thought "hey maybe if I upload through iWeb, it will get fixed" and I messed up the whole site again. I'm feeling like I should just give up and start again by hand. This is just not worth it. Argh.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Your server is misconfigured to force all browsers to use the wrong encoding. For fixes see the Server Settings section of

  • Unable to publish a single site when I have created two

    Using iWeb 08, I have created two separate sites. When I select one and attempt to publish to a folder, both sites are included. I cannot find a way to publish one site only. Am I overlooking the obvious or is iWeb so impressed with my work that it insists that both need to be seen?

    I ran into this same problem. I created one for my personal site and then another for my hobbies. The only solution that I found for this is to create a new user, in my case I just called it my website's name, and then publish the website to that user's site file. It's a workaround really, not a solution. But I have not found another way to do it. Hope it helps.

  • How to publish iweb ftp into domain folder thru iweb?

    Hey guys, I have just finished making a website thru iweb for my friend, but he need to edit it in his computer.
    Normally, I can just transfer a domain file via USB, but I can't find mine. I have downloaded the easy find software, and tried to find domain.sites2 (coz my iweb version is 3.0.4). However it doesn't work. I am not quite sure I have saved it into a domain file ( but I am sure I have saved it, coz every time when I made some changes i will click command+s, so I think my file is definitely somewhere in my computer but probably in other forms. WHO can tell me where did I save it when I click command+s??? ).
    Is there an order specifically for publishing it into a domain file? I didn't find an order like that. Is it automatically? Or do I need to do it by myself?
    Another weird thing is that my friend made a website thru mobileme, and it seemed like it can publish a domain file automatically, but ftp can't? Or just I did it the wrong way?
    Also when he transfer his domain file to my computer (when I was still editing my previous website), I opened it and it somehow covered my website, and I can't find it!!!! The last thing is that  except for preview what exactly is publish into local folder for?
    I did come across several problems, guys plz help me out!!! Millions of thanks in advance!!

    Welcome to the Support Communities. If you don't see your Domain file here:
    ...try searching for sites2 rather than domain.sites2.
    And rather than sending Domain files back & forth, consider switching to a website builder which incorporates collaborative website editing — see this post:

  • VS Exp 2013: Unable to create the Web site ... The components for communicating with FTP servers are not installed.

    I have MS Visual Studio Express 2013 It has worked fine for many months and then suddenly (I have made no configuration changes or added new programs) when I try to publish I am getting the message:
    Unable to create the Web site 'ftp://ftp.xx.xx/xxx.org.uk/www/htdocs'. The components for communicating with FTP servers are not installed.
    (I have replaced actual name with x's).
    I had a similar problem some months ago and found that saving all files, closing VS 2013 and re-starting the program fixed the problem. This time it has not.
    I am at a loss to know how to take this forwards. I do not use IIS.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Michael.

    Hi Michael,
    For web site development, so you use the VS2013 express for web, am I right? We have to make sure that it is not the VS version issue.
    As you said that it worked well before, did you install other add-ins or tools in your VS IDE like
    Xamarin or others?
    Maybe you could disable or remove all add-ins in your VS IDE, test it again.
    please also install the VS2013 update 4 in your side.
    Best Regards,
    Jack

  • IWeb Publish to FTP: Double Site Name

    My attempt to mount an iWeb site publishing via FTP to my commercial host server on my acquired domain name josephscriven.org works well EXCEPT when it is up on the Internet a redundant duplication creeps into the URL. After clicking on or entering josephscriven.org the website comes up beautifully but the URL is listed as http://josephscriven.org/Home/Home.html.
    Changing the "Home" to anything else does not help as then the new name is simply duplicated.
    Any thoughts out there?
    Thanks

    I ran into that as well. Even worse, the redirect that iWeb set up to send site visitors to the subdomain that it stored the actual site files in didn't work in some browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, which accounts for roughly 80% of site traffic on most of my sites.
    I just bought a Mac, so I set up a simple test site, just to help me get the feel of it. If you have access to your site via FTP. I had to use my PC for this, since I am thus far unfamiliar with any of the FTP programs available for a Mac, but I'm sure they will work well enough once I figure them out.
    Anyhow, if you access your site through FTP, you can move your site files and folders down one level, back to the command line for your domain, and everything should work fine, without the silly redirect.
    The only glitch I had in this is that the Index.html file that was used for the redirect that iWeb set up capitalized the first letter in the file name, whereas the index.html file used in the site itself was not capitalized. When I first did that, I would get a 404 upon trying to navigate back to the index (home) page of the site using the navigation menu. Changing the site index.html file to Index.html fixed that problem, as you can see in http://www.pinegrovealpacas.net/.

    Hi roddy,
    thanks for responding. I read your link, looked at my settings and they were all correct. I tried to do a republish and got this message: The requested URL /childrenandcaring/index.html was not found on this server.
    When I type the address in the address bar, I go to the site and the page says: This is the new site childrenandcaring.com
    Any other ideas?

  • Unable to access ftp sites

    FF 32.02 on Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit. Attempting to access ftp site produces the following error message popup:
    211-Features:
    AUTH SSL
    AUTH TLS
    EPRT
    EPSV
    MDTM
    PASV
    PBSZ
    PROT
    with the following page displayed after acknowledging the popup:
    The connection was reset
    The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    Cuting-and-pasting the same URL into IE 11.0.9600 results in the page displaying with no problems. Therefore, there is none of the 3 suggestions is the problem.

    The county ftp site doesn't act strangely for me.
    I'm not sure whether these general suggestions are applicable to ftp sites, but just in case:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • I'm having difficulty publishing via ftp to Machighway, I suspect this has to do with the fact I seperated my webpages into 3 sites in iWeb. Can any one tell me how to undo this in iWeb?

    I'm having difficulty publishing via ftp to Machighway, I suspect this has to do with the fact I seperated my webpages into 3 sites in iWeb. Can any one tell me how to undo this in iWeb?

    You'll have to describe in detail the workflow you're using to upload to Machighway and any messages/warnings that you get along the way.  Also what version of iWeb are you using and are you publishing just one of your sites?

  • Unable to access FTP Site via internet

    Hello All,
    Here is a problem that I'm facing accessing my home deployed FTP Server on Windows 2008 Server via internet. Below is the description of setup at my home.
    1. I've a private network behind D-link DSL 2750U router.
    2. I've forwarded Port 21 to my FTP Server in private network (FTP Server IP: 192.168.1.2)
    3. FTP Site is deployed in IIS 7.5 with Anonymous access rights (so obviously no username and password is required to access it).
    4. In IIS 7.5, FTP Site binding is set as "
    5. I'm able to access my ftp site within private network (via command prompt and any browser).
    6. I've registered a domain name ftp.tx-fr.tk for my FTP site so that I can use it from outside world and here are settings.
    7. I'm able to ping this (ftp.tx-fr.tk ) domain name.
    8. All firewalls are disabled for testing purpose (Will implement security later, once primary issue resolves).
    Now here is the problem, whenever I type in ftp://ftp.tx-fr.tk in my browsers,
    IE 9 and Chrome prompts for username and password, whereas Mozilla throws a message as "421 Login Incorrect".
    Same happens when I use command prompt to access the FTP site using domain name.
    Here is the funny part, when I'm prompted for username password, I typed in router's credentials (U:admin, P:admin) and I get
    "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" in IE 9, "421 Login Incorrect" in Mozilla.
    Whereas when CMD is used to access the site, I'm able to log in using router's credential but none of the command executes
    Now is there anyone who can assist me resolving this case?
    Kind regards,
    Aniruddha
