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...

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/.

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 via ftp

I'm trying to publish using ftp on iweb and have an issue with where it puts files on my server. Because the name of my site is entered int he publish settings it publishes everything to that named folder. I would like to know if anyone else had this issue and if they got round it? I just want to publish straight to my httpdocs folder on my host server but I can't seem to work out how to do that right now.

Thanks for the help.
Have now got hte site up there but the way that iweb has created the pages is pretty poor to be honest. Have you had similar issues with no css styles, text fonts not applied. I mean the pages look nothing like what they did locally. Do you know of a decent xhtml editor that people use on macs so that I can play with the code a bit?
Apologies for all the questions, moved to mac recently - great for everything except building websites so far. Maybe it will only work well with mobile me?

Iweb Publishing via FTP -- can't change the site

I am updating a site built in iWeb, now using v. 3.0.4
It has always been hosted externally and I upload using the FTP in iWeb.
I made some updates today (principally to add a link to a Facebook page). I republished the entire thing (it's only two pages). iWeb said it published fine.
I visited the new site, and there were no changes. I have cleared the browser cache upward of 10 times with no result. I have also tested the FTP connection and it's working fine.
Any suggestions as to what I might be missing?

Actually, I figured it out ... I needed to change the directory/path information.

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 (ï¿¼ 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

TS2167 iWeb: publish by ftp to GoDaddy webhosting service - get "publish error" at end of ftp session - always 1-2 files not successfully transferred - Why?

Why do I get message "Publish error There was an error communicating with the server. Try again later, or check with your service provider" when i publish websites to webhosting service (GoDaddy.com) from iWeb 3.0.4 even though most webpages have been transferred and are marked blue?   There are always a few pages marked red after each ftp transfer?   It seems that the ftp session is terminated by web hosting service too fast for iWeb 3.0.4. to register that files have been transferred successfully. When I check pages marked red in iWeb with browser, they are often available and functioning.     I have to add many extra webpages (which I do not want) to get iWeb to register all my pages as transferred (marked blue). If I do not do this, all pages on website are marked "red" after I close iWeb and restart it.   This means that everytime i make one little change to one page on a website of 8-10 Gigabytes, I often have to republish the entire site!
I think (without understanding enough/anything about ftp protocolls and termination negotiations) that iWeb is not getting enough time at end of each ftp session to register that all the pages have in fact been transferred successfully.   Could this be the explanation? If so, how do I "slow down" the termination of ftp session by my web hosting service GoDaddy so that iWeb 3.0.4 can see that all files have been successfully transferred and therefore should be marked blue?

You're rather prone to problems, aren't you. It's not the first time.

And since you do not use iWeb's ftp, but publish to a folder, iWeb's job is done.
You are now 100 percent responsible for your actions.
Upload the files properly. And if you're not blind visually challenged, you can see for yourself where the files are on the server. No need for GoDaddy eyes.
And why not use iWeb's FTP. Then at least you eliminate the human error.
And no, GoDaddy won't have to help you with iWeb, because there's nothing to fix.
And practice FTP first on your computer :

Good luck.

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.

FTP publishing on iWeb to replace existing site - files not appearing.

On iWeb, I used FTP publishing to replace my existing site files, then deleted the original files but not only has the new site files not appeared in my public html folder but I get the message:The requested URL /www.geofflevitus.com was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Founderror was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

but I get the message:The requested URL /www.geofflevitus.com was not found on this server.
That's an indication that the index.html file that is created alongside the site folder by iWeb is missing.
Try publishing your site to a folder on your hard driive and use a 3rd part ftp client like the free Cyberduck to upload the site folder and the index.html file.
Cyberduck or Transmit will let you view your server folder in a Finder like window where you can see which files are missing.

How to publish my site iWeb on a FTP servor ?

How to publish my site iWeb on a FTP servor since Mobilme is no longer available ?

You might want to check out third party hosts like Machighway or Hostexcellence or others who offer low cost website hosting. They will give you the info you need to plug into iWeb's ftp page to upload the site. they cost less than mobileme and offer more.
Apple has some tutorials on ftp and iweb. http://www.apple.com/findouthow/web/#ftp

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?

Iweb site site not publishing properly (ftp)

I've been using iweb for about 2 years now so I know it pretty well. I deided to use the iweb seo tool to get the site more popular I did all the pages tagging them ect.. I then oublished it to the ftp server will my ftp server settings. About an hour later it had finished so I type inmy website (www.ersanspics.co.uk) and it comes up with a message on chrome ''404 page not found'' the only way I can get to home page is by typing this http://www.ersanspics.co.uk/www.ersanspics.co.uk/Home_1.html . I think that iweb seo tool and iweb overlaped becouse I published on the same ftp server settings. I uninstalled iweb seo tool and tryed but nothing happend.

You appear to have created an extra folder - www.ersanpics.co.uk - in the root folder on the server.
When you upload website files with the iWeb FTP or SEO Tool, leave the Directory/Path field blank in the publishing settings window...

Using iWeb to Publish to Google Sites

Does anybody know if you can publish a site created with iWeb to Google Sites?
I use me.com so i've never had the need for this and for anything else i use the iWeb FTP function.
I have no experience with google Sites.
I have a friend who cant afford to use me.com and is using the free google sites.
Is there a known work around?
Plug In?
Any Advice will be great!
Thanks

I have never heard of a server free or otherwise that does not accept uploads via ftp?
There are plenty of other free hosts around - why not suggest to your friend that they find one and sign up for an account and use one that will accept upload via ftp?
Surely a lot simpler than wasting a lot of your time having to write code to make it work!!
