Publish Error after copying domain file from one mac to another

Hello there,
so here is the problem: I have had iweb installed on a MBP, and a website up and running. Now that I just bought an iMac I wanted to transfer all the iWeb over to the iMac and make it the main machine. I was doing all the transfer work manually rather than using the migration assistant or time machine.
I have copied the domain file in the iWeb directory over to the iMac. iWeb starts and displays all the pages and sites normally, but when I try to publish I get the " Publish Error. An unknown error occurred" message.
On the MBP everything was/is working normally.
I have tried to copy the same file again, no change. I have deleted the preference file, no change.
I have tried publishing to a local folder, and get the same error message.
Does anybody have an idea how to get this fixed? I browsed through the discussions here but couldn't find anything regarding this specific issue.
cheers

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
3 - reboot.
4 - launch iWeb and try to publish.
If that doesn't help continue:
5 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
6 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
7 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
8 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
9 - launch iWeb and try again.

  • Can I copy my iTunes from one Mac to another to a distant location?

    I have 2 homes one in NYC and the other in upstate NY. I have multiple Macs at both locations all using Snow Leopard and the latest version of iTunes(9). I only have 1 iTunes library I maintain at the upstate location and have to bring my iPod to the NYC location to play my music. Can I not copy my iTunes library to the NYC location using Home Sharing or using some other method? I often forget to bring my iPod and am left without my music.

    Since I had a problem with my Mac's drive that suddenly failed (I am able to read ONLY), I replaced the internal HD with my emergency HD that I had backedup a few months before. I would like to know if there's a way to copy my settings from one mac to another? Is there a specific folder for all apps or do I have to find out each and every single file for each app?
    I need the settings for
    System (view, font, color,)
    Finder (view, etc)
    iTunes (that include all library, playlists, etc),
    Firefox (Bookmarks, settings & plug-ins),
    Safari (Bookmarks, settings & plug-ins),
    Address Book (contacts)
    Thuderbird (emails accounts, contacts, passwords, etc)
    Stickies (stickies on the dock - i have info on there unsaved)
    Filezilla (FTP infos)
    Would appreciate.
    Thnx.
    All that info is found in your user/library folder, I just did a 60 machine rollout and copied all those settings from user/library, just be forewarned that if you upgrade software those setting will not take on the machine, for example Adobe CS 3,4 will not usable by CS5.  let us know if you need more help.  Also make sure you copy most of your preferences in the user/library/prefences folder.
    Note: If you are using an identical backup with all apps and user settings, you can just copy all folders from user to your new home folder.  Remember that only if the image or backup is identical to your production OS.

  • Move stickie file from one mac to another, move stickie file from one mac to another, How do I move stickie file from one mac to another

    How do you transfer the stickie data file from one mac to another?

    I think this is the file -
    In (hard drive) > Users > yourhomefolder (the one with the house icon) > Library, look for a loose file named StickiesDatabase
    Copying that file to the same location on the new machine (and replacing the file there now) should move the notes. It is probably a good idea that both machines be running the same OS X version.

  • Since I migrated my files from one Mac to another and am now running Yosemite, Photoshop Elements 9 (adequate for what I do) is not showing the previous functionality on some of the tools. I have uninstalled/reinstalled twice to no avail.

    Since I migrated my files from one Mac to another and am now running Yosemite, Photoshop Elements 9 (adequate for what I do) is not showing the previous functionality on some of the tools. I have uninstalled/reinstalled twice to no avail.  Is there a fix? Also, when I tried to update, it comes up with this error.

    I have a similar problem. I found out that my macbook air created a new USER with my former's computer user name. You can check that by going into System Preferences -> User & Groups, and see if a "Other user" has been created. You have to login under this new USER to find your transferred contacts in the address book.
    My problem is that I do not know how to merge the 2 USER logins or transfer the data from the new USER created into the existing one.

    This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

  • Error while copying GL Accounts from One Client to another client

    Hi,
    We are trying to copy GL accounts created in one client to another client (Company Code is same in both the clients). First we executed FS15 (send) and a file was created on the server. With the help of BASIS team we checked that file and it contained the required values. However, when we are doing FS16 (receive) we are getting following OK messages:
    File /usr/sap/DEV/SYS/global/FBISABC is being checked
    Session 1 session name RFBISA20 : No terminations have been found
    However, at the same time we are getting following error message:
    File name FI_COPY_COMPANY_CODE_DATA_FOR_GENERAL_LEDGER_0X is unknown
    Message no. SG001
    Diagnosis
    No entry was found in the conversion table for the logical file name FI_COPY_COMPANY_CODE_DATA_FOR_GENERAL_LEDGER_0X.
    Procedure
    Add an entry to the conversion table for the logical file name. Maintain the conversion table with the transaction SM30.
    Can someone please advice is there something wrong that we are doing for copying GL accounts from one client to another client.
    Thanks,
    Sanjay

    Dear Sanjay,
    Did you check the batch-input? SM35
    It could have happend that there was a mistake in the batch-input data and that the destination file has not been written. If this has not been written it could not be found.  (I.E. you tried to transport G/L Accounts with deletion flags but did activate the checkbox "Transfer deletion ****").
    There is another point: Did you activate the box "Datei nur prüfen" (English: Check file only)? If this box is activated the programm will check if the batch-input-file will be written without mistakes but it will not write the file. Only if the checkbox is not activated the batch-input-file will be written. (the same with FS16).
    Kind regards
    Maike

  • How to copy a file from one location to another ???

    Hi,
    I have a file ('D:/Pictures/1.jpg') and I want to copy this 1.jpg file to a location called 'D:/Folder1'. I tried the WebUtil_File.copy_file function, but it does not work. it returns false boolean.
    I am using windows xp and oracle 10g.
    The webutil configurations are also completed.
    This D: drive is the one which has oracle 10g application server installed.
    Am I doing anything wrong or missed?. I need to complete this urgently. but it does not work.
    Or any other way to copy a file from one place to given any path?. After this I have to renaming (may be using Rename_File function) the copied file. Please advice me.

    An alternative could be HOST command, that calls OS prompt to run a command in the server and then return the focus to the Forms:
    HOST ('copy D:/Pictures/1.jpg D:/Folder1/1.jpg');

  • Cant open boot archive after copying Solaris 10 from one machine to another

    We are running "Solaris 10 3/05 s10_74L2a" on a Sun Fire 480R.
    I tried to, using ufsdump to copy the filesysem to a T5220 which has 4 disks, the first 2 disks are a mirrored os of a Solaris 10 version already there.
    So I restored the ufs inages to the 3rd disk, ran installboot with the bootblock from the restored image for s sun Fire 480R as there did not appear to be a bootblock for a T5220 , as its a more recent server.
    ie:
    installboot /mnt/usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0s0
    /mnt/usr/platform/SUNW,SPARC-Enterprise-T5220/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk: File not found
    so I do this instead :
    installboot /mnt/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-480R/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0s0
    Now then I try to boot I get :
    Boot device: /pci@0/pci@0/pci@2/scsi@0/disk@2 File and args:
    ufs-file-system
    Loading: /platform/sun4v/boot_archive
    Loading: /platform/sun4v/boot_archive
    Can't open boot_archive
    Evaluating:
    The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.
    but, as far as I know this old version of Solaris did not use a boot archive and there is no directory /platform/sun4v/boot_archive in the restored files, nor on the original server.
    So, my question is, if the old version of os did not support a boot-archive, why is this restored image, when I boot , giving this error.
    Surely all the data on the 3rd disk should be the same as on the old server.!!
    What am I missing here ??
    George

    Well, you can't just copy an OS from one type of system to another and expect it to work. For one thing the OS communicates with its hardware through the /dev/ and /devices layer, and that layer will be completely different when you transfer it to another system.
    Second of all the lack of boot block for the T5220 in your installation indicates that your version of Solaris 10 does not support the T5220 platform, which probably means that it will be impossible to boot completely on it anyway..
    I'm not sure when the SPARC systems started to use the boot-archive..
    Anyway, the two things you have missed is to create the boot-archive (with bootadm update-archive -R /mnt), and to run devfsadm on the new platform (devfsadm -r /mnt ).
    Even so, there is no guarantee that your version of Solaris actually supports your hardware.. But i guess that's documented in the Sun System Hardware Handbook..
