Lost login for site definitions

On 2 separate computers using 8.0.2 I have been having issues
with my site definitions loosing the login info on only a select
few sites. This is only occasional but is annoying when you have
deadlines.
If I re-import the definition it works fine again.
I just recently spoke with someone else that has the same
issue and now I tried it on Vista and had the same issue again.
I also noticed there were some posts in here referring to IE
7 Beta as being the problem, but I have the regular version of IE 7
and never installed the Beta.
Has there been a fix posted anywhere?

  • Alternatives for Site Definitions in SharePoint Office 365

    Hi
    As we don't have the option for the deployment of site definitions on Office 365, Then what are the alternative approaches to achieve the site definitions feature?

  • Mac: lost MX 04 site definitions

    Hi, all,
    Thought I'd try to do a better job of explaining what my
    issue is. In DW MX 2004, on my Mac G5, I removed and replaced my
    preferences and library files to fix a problem Apple was helping me
    with. In the process, I lost all of my DW site definitions. I have
    the old prefs and library files and have put back everything that
    looks Dreamweaver-ish, but the site defs are still missing when I
    launch DW.
    Is there a file or two that contains these definitions, or am
    I stuck re-creating them?
    Thanks!

    Yes, check the Dreamweaver FAQ. You'll be surprised what you can find in there. You're in luck because you're on a Mac. Windows users who fail to export their site definitions won't be so fortunate.

  • Can I store my Dreamweaver site definitions on an external drive?

    I just purchased 2 brand new iMacs (one for office and one for home) to replace my old MacBook Pro. I am now moving all of my client files to an extranal hard drive so that I can share the same exact files in both locations. I just realized it won't be that easy with Dreamweaver because of the site definitions, which are stored locally on the computer.
    Is there a way for me to move and store site definitions of the external hard drive. If so, can you provide detailed instructions on how to do this. I am paranoid about losing important data!
    I am also assuming that Dreamweaver looks in a specific place for site definitions, so I'll need to 'train' it to look on my external hard drive to find them (if that's even possible).
    Thank you SO much, in advance!
    Jackie

    I think the OP was wondering if there could just be a single location that held the site definitions andnthat both computers would read when DW was launched on either machine to populate the site list.
    Just clarifying the question, but that can't be done so Nancy's instructions are what needs to be done. Each computer will maintain it's own list of defs, but being able to export and import makes it a little easier.  Part of my workflow when setting up a site involves making an immediate export of the site def in a location that is being backed up. I also keep another secure file of FTP info as an added layer - just because there was ne particular web host that included special characters in the UserID, which did not retain in the site definition.  I don't mind having to do this, but I wish you could export the entire list and not have to do one at a time.

  • How do I manually recreate the site definition (.ste) for an existing site?

    My iMac hard drive recently failed and had to be replaced.
    Though I had backed up my web site files, I don't have a backup of the site's Site Management (*.ste) file.
    Thus, I'm unable to manage this site in Dreamweaver (reinstalled on the new hard drive).
    In some forum threads, there are references to "manually recreating the site definition." How do I do this?
    Thanks!

    paintwlight wrote the following:
    Does Putting the site to the remote server constitute an Export, whereby a .ste file would have been created during the Put process and, therefore, exist on the remote server?
    No. Hit F1 and search for Export.
    If so, I assume that if I copy the .ste file currently on the remote server and save it locally (into Library:Application Support:Adobe:Common:9:Sites:Site Prefs), all will be well and Dreamweaver will once again be able to manage the site.
    DW can manage the site after you have defined the site as mentioned
    earlier. It does not need the .ste files at all. Those are created by
    the user via the Export feature and are not used by DW itself.
    Gosh, I wish I would have known about the .ste file before my hard drive died. This seems like way too much responsibility to put on one teeny tiny little file -- especially one that's not kept with the rest of the web site files.
    The .ste file contains only the paths to your site and the login
    information - if you choose to include that information. It does not
    contain any of the actual files. DW does not act as a backup or archival
    program. You need to keep backups of your entire site (including source
    files used to create the site, such as Photoshop/Fireworks layered
    images, Flash .fla files, etc...) as well as backups of the .ste files.

  • DW MX Site Definitions for Verizon FIOS? Mac

    Hello, Everyone,
    First time poster, longtime user/dabbler. All help is greatly
    appreciated.
    I'm using DreamWeaver MX for Mac and trying to do a site
    definition for Verizon FIOS. The instructions on their web site do
    not work, are sketchy at best anyway, and Verizon's tech people
    don't give tech support on this in general and don't know the
    answers so far!
    Does anyone know what to put in the fields for an ftp
    connection in site definition? Really - is anyone successfully
    using DreamWeaver with Verizon fiber optic?

    Send me your connection info offlist, please -

  • Lost site definition in CS5.5

    My IMac crashed and now l the Site Definitions file is lost, I have tried to do a restore from my Time Machine but I am unable to find the Site Definitions Folder
    I have even tried reinstalling Dreamweaver as per the instructions in the Adobe support site after reinstalling DW I am still unable to make a new site, I am getting an error message that tells me that the Sprite Assets folder is not inside the site
    Should I move the Dream Weaver application from the Applications Folder to the Trash and reinstall DW? or what?
    Some help will be appreciated

    Whenever DW starts acting up, the first thing I do is clear the program cache:
    Deleting a corrupted cache file
    If that doesn't take care of it, I move on to restoring preferences:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/restore-preferences-dreamweaver-cs4-cs5.html
    If restoring preferences doesn't clear the issue, the "nuke it from orbit" option would be a fresh re-install using the Cleaner Tool:

  • CS3 quit and lost all site definitions

    I wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary when Dreamweaver
    CS3 suddenly quit. When I relaunched the app, all my site
    definitions were gone. Any idea why or how I can get them back?

    Had you EXPORTED your site definitions previously? If not,
    you may be out
    of luck.
    It's always a good idea to keep a backup of your site
    definitions by
    EXPORTing them from Site Manager to cover you for just this
    kind of thing.

  • Two-factor / Multi-factor authentication for Sites login

    Hi All,
    Would like to know if any one have implemented the two-factor authentication for Sites login ( Admin / Contributor Interface ),
    It will be really helpful if you could share any ideas on this.
    Regards,
    Anoop.

    I haven't seen any before for Sites.
    But I guess if You use OAM for the access, you could create something like the described in:  Integrating the RSA SecurID Authentication Plug-In -
    I haven't tried myself, but maybe that integration with RSA SecurID plugin helps you.
    Regards,
    Guillermo.

  • Lost Site Definitions

    Hi All,
    Using Dreamweaver CS3 & Mac OS 10.4.11, so no Time Machine
    Opened DW this morning and ALL site definitions gone. Have some of them backed up to .ste so can recover them easily, only about 25% though.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Backing up and restoring site definitions

    Losing your site definitions in Dreamweaver can be a disaster, but it does happen sometimes. The best way to prepare for such an eventuality is to back up your site definitions on a regular basis.
    Creating a backup
    You can back up all your site definitions in a single operation by selecting Site > Manage Sites. In the dialog box that opens, Shift-click to select all site names, and then click Export.
    In Dreamweaver CS6, the Manage Sites dialog box looks like this:
    In earlier versions of Dreamweaver, it looks like this:
    Dreamweaver asks if you want to include passwords and login details (this is the default option). Whichever option you choose will be applied to all sites, so click Cancel if you want to treat some sites separately, and export your sites in two sets by using Ctrl/Cmd-click to select them.
    When you click OK, Dreamweaver asks where you want to export the definitions. Navigate to a suitable location, leave the File name field unchanged, and click Save. Although only one site name is listed in the File name field, Dreamweaver exports all the site definitions as .ste files in a single operation.
    NOTE: This process backs up only the details of your sites, such as the location of the root folder, FTP details, and so on. It does not back up the actual files in your site, such as .html (or .php, .asp, .cfm) files, images, and style sheets. It's a good idea to use your normal file backup routine on your actual files from time to time, as well as exporting the site definitions.
    Restoring site definitions
    In the event of losing your site definitions in Dreamweaver or moving to a new computer, open the Manage Sites dialog box, and use the Import button to navigate to your backup .ste files.
    What if I don't have a backup?
    Often, if you don't have a backup of .ste files, you need to go through the whole process of re-entering the details for each site manually.
    However, you might be able to restore them by using a restore point on Windows or Time Machine in Mac OS X.
    On Windows, the site definitions for Dreamweaver CS6 are stored in the Windows Registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Common\12.0\Sites.
    In Mac OS X, they are at Macintosh HD:<username>:Library:Application Support:Adobe:Common:12.0:Sites:Site Prefs.
    In recent versions of Mac OS X, the Library folder is hidden. In the Mac Finder, select Go > Go to Folder, type ~/Library in the search field, and click Go.
    Dreamweaver CS5.5 site definitions are in the same location, except use 11.5 instead of 12.0. The numbers for CS4 and CS3 are 10 and 9 (without a decimal fraction) respectively. For earlier versions of Dreamweaver, substitute Macromedia for Adobe, and adjust the number accordingly.
    If you don't have a backup of the actual files on your site, download the files from your remote server.

    Hello,
    We are running iPlanet 5.2 Messaging Server and need
    to migrate to another (duplicate) 5.2 Messaging
    Server. We have all the software installed and the
    LDAP user accounts created. Now we just need to move
    the existing mail from one server to the other.
    I found the Backing Up and Restoring the Message
    Store section in the Admin Guide says to back up and
    restore your data, Messaging Server provides the
    imsbackup and imsrestore utilities.
    However I am wondering about the Queue?
    Under <instance>/imta/queue
    What is the difference between the Message Store
    and the Queue? The Message Store is where messages get delivered to, so you can read them.'
    The queue is where messages are temporarily stored, pending delivery to wherever they go.
    You can use tar, cpio, or what have you for the queue. Stop the server first. . .
    You then just restore the files to the new server. No need to restart or anything like that. Just dump the files in, and run
    imsimta cache -sync
    to tell the MTA to re-read the queue.
    Can I just backup and restore the
    Queue using tar or cpio?
    Thanks in advance for any advice.
    Regards,
    Tim

  • Site definition has disappeared

    hey there, I did a disk cleanup last night and lo... this
    morning I have no file information on dreamweaver. I have learnt
    from this to keep a record of all the site definition data , but in
    the meantime, as I hadn't made a note of those, I have lost all the
    details for connecting to my three websites.
    Can anyone tell me where this information may be and how I
    can reconnect dreamweaver to it? I haven't emptied my recycle bin
    yet but can't see anything in there that may contain this data.
    love Kim

    What version of DW do you have, Kim? If you have 8 (I can't
    remember if MX
    2004 had this or not .. been years since I used it), you can
    reimport the
    site definitions (if you exported them initially). If you
    don't have the
    ste files saved somewhere, then you'll have to rebuild them
    .. thank
    goodness you only have 3 and not 30. :)
    The site definition info is stored in the registry on Windows
    .. not sure on
    Mac. However .. if it's gone .. it's probably gone from the
    registry as
    well and unless you do it routinely, I don't advise people to
    mess with the
    registry.

  • Site definition giving http error: 0

    I just spent a whole night trying to do what should be a simple task: binding the sql data to a table I made. It's amazing: I spent A LOT of money on CS4 and it doesn't work as does FileZilla.
    I'm taking a course in Dreamweaver and have to complete an assignment using Dreamweaver. Can anyone tell me what needs to be tweaked in the software. The login, root directory, password and URL all work with Filezilla. Hostingrails insists that it's a problem with the site definition in DW.
    Help!

    You don't say which server model you're using, but there are instructions for getting CS4 running with PHP here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html.
