Iweb problems publish second site

Hi everyone!
I use IWeb to make my site with no problem. however now I'm doing another site (diferent file and domain) and can't publish the new site). I've tried to erase my the first site from "sites" but cannot publish the other site!
it doesn't respond to the command "publish".
any help?
thank in advance
rita

I delete "Cache.db" in Library/Cache/com.apple.iWeb ; "com.apple.iWeb.plist" in Library/Preferences.
iWeb publishing don't change.
With Time Machine, I restaure an older version of Domain all in "blue". When I want publish one modification, all the sites turn red.
I chat with french MobileMe support. They say it's a iWeb issue.
I delete iWeb. I install it and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I re-install Mac OS Snow Leopard and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I use iWeb since the first version, and I like it. I have many published pages.
No news from MobileMe. Distressing situation, isn't it ?

  • Original site gone after publishing second site

    I recently published a temporary site with a password to view it in addition to my main web site. I later deleted the second site, but now my main site is not on the web. The sign-in page for the temporary site has replaced it, even though I've deleted the second site from iWeb. How do I get my original site back? I publish to Mobile Me, but with my own domain name. I tried republishing the entire site.

    First clear your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and reload your site.
    If the above didn't help, mount your iDisk and go to the iDisk/Web/Sites folder.  There look for a file titled "index.html".  Delete it.  Go back to iWeb and republish the entire site.

  • In using iWeb to publish my site with FileZilla, I have inadvertently published a subdirectory instead of the root site. Can anyone guide me?

    In the site name I put my site: combustionevent.com
    And I put in my server address in the ftp settings and correct user name & password
    In the website URL I typed in: www.mysitet.com
    But when it publishes, it's found at: http://www.mysite.com/www.mysite.com/mysite_Home.html
    I can't seem to figure out how to get it out of a subdirectory.

    Well, of course you won't be able to because producing the site folder, which is what it is is normal practice for iWeb.  Due to the site structure, iWeb will create and publish a site folder.
    To get over this you have 2 choices:
    1. Change the site name to something shorter and more applicable and upload again and keep the site folder.
    2.  Publish your site to a local folder from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to iWeb, but upload the CONTENTS ONLY of your site folder rather than the whole site folder itself.  Your url will then be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.

  • Iweb keeps publishing all sites

    I am using iweb 1.1.1 I have made a new site but everytime I publish..from "edit"
    publish site, iweb publishes all the sites on my list. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks, Dana

    Dana:
    First this is the iWeb 2 forum and you'll probably get users there who are more familiar with iWeb 1 responding.
    However, are you publishing to MobileMe or to a folder? If you're publishing to a folder then that's normal. I've not used iWeb 1 for quite a while but don't remember it publishing all sites unless there was a change in all of them.
    I believe iWebSites works with iWeb 1 and maybe you should take a look at it. I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
    If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
    This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want. It may be what you're looking for.

  • Using IWeb to publish a site in two languages

    I have used IWeb successfully to create my new website and am using mobileme as the domain provider. I want to produce this website in two languages, ideally having a 'button' to press where you can choose your language option if the site appears in a language you cannot read (ie it is published firstly in indonesian language but there are people who want to access it in english).
    Does anyone have nay experience / ideas about this?
    thanks

    See this page...

    The above site is available in more than one language.

  • Problem publishing my iWeb site to new server

    I have a problem publishing my site to a new server HostGator.
    I click publish, everything continues normally, then I get an ERROR notice:
    Publish Error
    There was an error communicating with the FTP server.
    Try again later, or check with your service provider                  
    Since I changed the settings for the new server all the iWeb pages symbols go pink every time I close and reopen iWeb.  Once I have tried to publish and get the ERROR notice I see that most of the pages have turned blue (suggesting they have been correctly published) and the same 5 pages remain pink (suggesting they have not been published)   I have used the HostGator link
    http://gator694.hostgator.com/~carouge1/carouge-art/Welcome.html
    to look at the uploaded pages.
    All the pages are on their server file BUT the pages which remain pink on iWeb have problems. These problems (missing photos etc.) don't seem to affect the pages when the site is called up normally. The site is apparently still being uploaded to people’s computers through MobileMe eventhough I have changed the server settings! So I’m assuming the page problems will show up after MobileMe stops at the end of this month?  I cannot find an explanation for the failed pages from HostGator or from the Apple online answers.
    Grateful for any advice.

    I am having a similar problem trying to upload from iWeb through FTP to MacHighway web hosting.
    I am using iWeb 3.0.4, the latest version.
    I have followed the instructions on the MacHighway site: https://customers.machighway.com/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=10
    When I type "public_html" into Directory/Path window in iWeb I get the following message:
    Testing failed.
    The directory/path couldn't be found.  Verify your settings and try again.  
    When I type "/public_html" or /public_html/" into Directory/Path window in iWeb I get the following message:
    Testing failed.
    A connection to mel.machighway.com couldn't be established.  Verify your settings and try again.
    Unlike carougeart, however, nothing gets uploaded.

  • Problems publishing iWeb page to my website

    Hello, I'm having a heck of a time trying to get my iWeb page published to the free host server I chose. I have a subdomain name and account at atspace.com and no matter what I do, the darn webpage will not work. I'm a complete newbie to webpage publishing although I have decent knowledge of computers. I went through the entire process of making my page on iWeb, then published it to a folder on my computer, and then have been trying to upload the page to the site using cyberduck, and yet every single time I try to upload any file from the web page, cyberduck connects, but then says the following: ftp error cannot create folder, /About _files About: Permission denied. I've followed all of the steps I'm supposed to from help sites on the web about how to publish an iWeb page to a free host server and it even is connecting to my server, but when I try to upload the actual pages, it won't work. I even downloaded WebEcho as well, and same thing, WebEcho says it worked and that everything is great, and yet I visit the site and nothing works. If I go to my website address it just comes up blank and says that safari can not find the server. I am at my wits end and am becoming incredibly upset with the whole thing. I don't know if iWeb is not working, or the server is not working. I have an account with the server though, I registered the subdomain name, and when I test the connection, it works, but when I type the website address in my browser, it doesn't work. If someone could help me figure this out, I would be very happy and appreciative. Thanks in advance.

    To summarize: you use Cyberduck to upload the files to the server.
    If that's the case it's not an iWeb issue. Its role ends when the pages are published to the folder on your desktop.
    If Cyberduck cannot create folders on the server then you have to find out what the problem is. Either on the server or with Cyberduck.
    On basic question is : do you publish to the correct folder on the server? It's usually named public_html, html-docs. Check with your webhost.
    +*Not sure what you mean by is it published to the correct folder on the server. I published the page onto my computer, it's in the sites folder on my hard drive. iWeb says it's uploaded or whatever and would I like to visit the site. So I click yes and it takes me to this website: file:///Users/ryanfick/Desktop/Ryan%20Fick/About%20.html This is not the server or the subdomain name I registered so I'm not sure what this is. It works though and I can navigate around the website, but when I go to the website I have a subdomain name at, it doesn't find it. Plus, I have no idea what public_html or html-docs means or is, you would need to explain that to me for me to know what or how to find it or use it.*+
    BTW, why not use iWeb to do the publishing. Enter the details in the FTP setup. But check the details with your host first. If Cyberduck cannot publish the pages, then iWeb cannot either.
    +*I have already tried to use iWeb to publish the site as I mentioned above, but nothing is working. Thanks for the quick response, but I'm almost completely lost on almost everything you asked or talked about. I'm a newbie to webpages and ftp and such. I have no idea on most of the questions and comments. I do have a few questions. Do I need to manually go to atspace.com and upload all the files individually? There are like a thousand files under the main files. And second, I've been trying to use Easy iWeb to publish it and it is asking me to input a folder to input on to the website that your iWebsite will be published to. I have no idea what this means or what it wants. It says to leave blank if you want to publish it to the top level of your website. So I left it blank and clicked on check configuration and it says configuration OK. So then I go back to the main page and click on publish to web and it says Ready, uploading, then failed to upload file: About .html at /Users/ Does this help at all? What do I need to do, what is going wrong? I feel like I am in bizarrO world right now where right is wrong and wrong is right and nothing works. Thanks*+

  • Having problems publishing from iweb now mobileme no longer exists

    Hi, I recently downloaded Mountain Lion and have icloud as I understood this would allow me to use iweb and publish my site via icloud. I have since learnt that you can no longer do this.
    I'm not very technical but just wondered if someone can help. Can I use iweb sites that I created when mobile me was around and publish them or do I need to create new ones? Also do I have to publish using an outside host if so who should I use & do I have to pay? If I do need to do this then can you point me in the right direction on how to do this please and thanks.

  • Iweb problems

    I just got my mac a couple of months ago to edit on FCE. I just discovered iweb last week. It's easy to use but I am unsure of the program. I created 1 page with a video embedded in it. It looks great on my mac but not on my PC. The text has a gray box around it until the video is fully loaded. Also once I play the video, if I scroll up or down the video box gets all distorted and tries to stay in the middle of the screen. Are these common problems or is it just my PC. Also is their a way to view the source code in iweb?
    here is the site www.studentlifetelevision.com

    Also is their a way to view the source code in
    iweb?
    You can only view the source code after iWeb has published a site. Then you can view it with any Browser via View > View Source, aimed at whatever pagename.html file you want to see. You can also modify the code with a text editor directly on your server or on your drive before uploading (but any changes are erased if you republish from iWeb).

  • Stolen iWeb Problem

    My laptop was stolen this week. I had been using iweb to publish a site. Does anyone know if I buy a new mac and iweb software if I can continue to publish to my current site without overwriting what is already on the site. THe problem is all my pics in I photo that i had been using were on the laptop too, so recreating this site from scratch could be a ral nightmare. Any advice? Thanks. Jeff

    Oh, Jeff. That stinks.
    Now for the bad news: Unless you diligently backed up (which I am assuming you did not otherwise you would not be asking), you are missing a key file for iWeb and your photos are gone.
    iWeb keeps your sites in a file called Domain. Without it, it is my understanding that the published site is not updatable.
    Now, for those pix. If you have them published on the site or in a gallery, you can get them back in some form. Unless you unchecked the optimize box for the site, they will likely be screen resolution, but at least you will have them. Similarly, if you checked to allow viewers to download from your gallery, then way to go.
    Of course, you don't mention .mac so the above may be completely irrelevant...

  • Using a site in iWeb to publish to an external server - problems with RSS

    Hi!
    I have a rather odd problem. I have a .Mac account, but I also work for a non-profit organization that has asked me to handle their website. I would like to use iWeb to do that and am attempting to publish the site to an external server. However, I also want to use iWeb to publish my own personal account pages to .Mac.
    I have the site up and running, and most everything works on it except the RSS feed. I typed the url into the Publish to Server dialogue, but it has been to no avail. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that I am not publishing ALL of my sites to this server, just one of the sites. (When I invoke the Publish to Server command, it creates a master index and folders for each of the sites. Then, I have been discarding all of them except for the folder of the site I want to publish, which I have to name "public_html" to conform with our domain provider's requirements. This works great, except the RSS feed is broken when I do this.
    I know I can use a seperate log-in account and re-make the entire webpage there, but I consider that to be a last resort and I am looking for a better method than this.
    Any suggestions? The site is http://www.oatag.org

    When you break the site structure by changing names of folders you also break the link for the RSS feed.
    I find it hard to believe you are really required to change the name of the folder like that. Instead you should be inserting into the folder called public_html the following two things: the folder published by iWeb which has the same name as your site does inside iWeb, plus the index html file published alongside it. To make sure that this index.html file actually points to the site you are uploading, make sure this site is at the top of the list inside iWeb before publishing.

  • I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    I published a website using iWeb.  I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

    If you're publishing directly from iWeb 3 to your FTP server then you'll have the following in your accounts root directory:
    Site 1 folder
    Site 2 folder
    Site 3 folder
    index.html file from last published site directling to the last published site.
    If you want to keep Site 1 as the primary site you'll need to publish it one more time to the server so you get it's index.html file uploaded.
    Now you'll have to publish Sites 2 and 3 to a folder on the hard drive and use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck, YummyLite or Transmit  to upload only the site folder (and not its external index.html file with it).
    The url to sites 2 and 3 will be:

  • Two Sites Published With iWeb...Viewers Get Error Message With Second Site

    I have used iWeb to create two web sites. I believe I have done so properly, using File>New Site to begin creating the second site. After publishing, I can visit both sites from within iWeb.
    Curiously, the message panel that displays after successful publishing indicates the same URL for both web sites. Obviously, that's wrong. That address will open the first site properly (after automatically adding additional characters to the URL during opening), but is incorrect for the second site. As an alternative, I have visited both sites from within iWeb, and copied the URL from the browser window as the "proper" address.
    When I use the copied URL's in my own browser, I can navigate to each of the websites properly. However, when I give those URL's to someone else, they get an error message that the second site cannot be found using the URL for the second site that I obtained using the "copying" technique described. That's the case even though both URL's work properly from my computer and browser.
    Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?

  • IWeb 3.0.4 problem under Lion X: Why are my movies unable to play after publishing web-site?

    No problems with the above running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Under Lion, I can place movies during the edit phase, set up quicktime to autoplay, and test it and it plays.  After publishing the site, the movies do not play.  Sometimes a note saying that "a plugin is not available" appears in the movie window.  Could this be a Quicktime problem?  The movies were placed in iWeb using iTunes from the Media Display and are .m4v files edited in iMovie. The web-site works on iMacs running 10.6.8, and on PC's.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

    Thanks QTKirk. Tried the web site under firefox 5.0 and the movies played!  Not sure about the DivX extension for Safari.  There is something called 3ivx on my machine that has something to do with Mpeg.  Could you give me the steps to remove this from Safari, assuming that it is the extension you were talking about?  How would I see what extensions are in Safari?  I'm labeling your response with the correct answer to my problem because either way --- I can always use firefox if I can't get Safari straightened out.  Many thanks!
