Publish Error: An Unknown Error Occured

After reading many posts, it sounds like my problem has made its rounds but it's a new issue for me:
I recently updated a page with speaker bios and pics (for a conference) and tried to publish my changes (I don't use .Mac; I publish to a folder that I then FTP) when I received a "Publish Error: An unknown error occurred" pop-up.
The error occurred while waiting for the horizontal bar to finish loading and it seems to stop on the very page that I changed.
After reading numerous posts, I did the following: 1) I individually sized, relabeled and exported (into jpg) all the photos that are on the bio page via iPhoto and replaced all the pics with the new ones, 2) I tried the "removing the plist" route, and 3) I re-published and waited 5-10 min, with the pop-up still showing, in the hopes that I would nevertheless see my changes made in my folder.
None of those solutions worked for me.
I've never had publishing issues in the past and I've been constantly updating/publishing since November '06.
Now, I have noticed when I open iWeb a "Missing Font" error (Tw Cen MT Condensed) but I've been able to successfully publish in the past, even with that error showing. Hmm...Could that be the problem? But my bio/pic page only has Veranda (??)
Could the error be related to the page getting too big (because of all the pics/bios on one page)? I currently have 94 pics @ 135x135 (appx 16-22 KB each) on the page.
I really need help in finding the culprit to my publishing error! My speakers want to see their pics and bios!
Help!

Publishing errors appear for all sorts of reasons -
Apple servers updating, uneven bandwidth when
publishing etc.
But these shouldn't affect publishing to a folder.
I know this is going to be a pain, but if it were me, this is what I would try:
-create two or three news pages for the pics/bios (can you categorize the speakers by subject or something?)
-copy the pictures and bios over to those pages (it might be even better if you reimported the pix and rewrote the bios, but that's a lot more work)
-When you've "moved" all the pictures and bios over, delete the original page that appears to be the source of the problem.
This gives you a "fresh start" on the page that appears to be the problem, and it makes the pages a little smaller, in case that's part of the issue. And recreating a page that appears to be the source of the hang has worked for me in the past.
You might also quit most of your other apps before trying to publish, in case the processor and/or memory are being taxed.

Solutions for "Unknown error occured" when publishing in iWeb

Many complaints where written on the forums about this annoying *"Unknown error occurred"* bug, while publishing in iWeb.
Until now, nobody could actually find the problem, but in most cases the problem is not a network connection, but an iWeb bug, that occurs during html files creation process.
I'm using iWeb a lot and through my work found several different solutions, that worked for me and for many other users. Try them all out, before going desperate and rebuilding the site from scratch:
1. Try closing and reopening iWeb (do it in all other steps between operations).
2. Try to publish the site Locally. If it works, try publishing to the server again.
3. Try publishing the ENTIRE site, first Locally, then to the server (File>Publish Entire Site). This operation forces iWeb to rebuild all the files from skratch.
4. Try closing iWeb and deleting the User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iweb.plist preferences file. iWeb will create a new one again next time it opens (don't worry, you will only lose iWeb preferences, but not your website)
5. If publishing locally worked, but online didn't, then upload the locally published site folder to your server manually using any FTP client.
6. If nothing works, try reinstalling iWeb. Before doing that, back-up your project file, which is located at +User/Library/Application Support/iWeb+ to some other location.
Also, as an advice, avoid using non web-safe names in your files and web pages. I.e. - don't use spaces and Capital letters, this may cause problems. For example, instead of naming a file: "Nice picture.jpg", name it: "nice_picture.jpg"
Post more solutions, if you have them.

Try signing out of the app (Store menu,) quitting the app, restarting the app and signing back in.

Publish Error - An unknown error occurred.

I have had an iWeb site published to Mobile Me (previously .Mac) for some time now. I have been doing updates recently, have added posts to a blog that was previously just a place holder, a new My Albums page with one album and made changes to my Welcome page. Over the last few days I have been getting this error when trying to publish the site "Publish Error - An unknown error occurred." and the blog entries, new My Albums page, new album and Welcome page will not publish to Mobile Me or local folder. These pages all remain red after attempting to publish them.
I would really appreciate it if someone could help me through this problem. I have a new baby at home and I am really trying to get some photos etc online for my family to enjoy.

I tried the suggestions on this support page with no luck.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2588
I am able to publish other parts of my site that are old. For example I moved one of my other sites on my iDisk and then republished it successfully. Note I have not modified the content of that site in some time.

"Publishing Error" Unknown error occured.

I have just recently published a small club website. Plenty of photos.
I have tried to publish a new blog page, but have been told that there is a publishing error - Unknown error occured.
I checked my idisk and there is plenty of free space.
Is there a limit of uploads in a certain period?

To answer my own question
Install the latest version of iWeb and it works fine.
Moral of this story...
Upgrade whenever possible.

I'm getting "Publish Error - An unknown error occurred" in iWeb

....and it's killing me! My podcast has been MIA for over a week now. The link to my webpage is gone. I can't find any help here. When I try to publish my episodes, this is what I get: Publish Error - An unknown error occurred...
I can't seem to find any advice anywhere on what to do about it. I've searched forums and tried reloading, refreshing, etc. Please help.
Thanks!

Well, actually it is solved... I guess. My son wrote a page on a blog model, without no blog on it; I first removed all buttons that could call an RSS feed or podcasts from all the pages, the issue remained.
The page in question displayed another error message in Safari, telling something was missing, and it was impossible to navigate the site via the menu banner; so I Cmnd-A the page, copied the whole stuff onto a brand new blank page, no success neither.
Eventually, I rewrote the page from scratch, and it solved the issue. Perhaps somewhere on the former page a hidden button or a piece of code which put the mess... I dunnow. But it seems to be OK now.

Access denied error when Loading document library for "contribute" users : Unknown SPRequest error occurred. More information: 0x80070005

Hi,
We are facing a very strange issue on a SharePoint Publishing portal. Domain users (contribute level access) have access to document libraries under specific sub sites. Every morning if they try to access the document library pages, users complain about "Access Denied" issue on document library page. But if a SP Farm admin account login on site, and browse to document library page, access denied issue seems to disappear for end users also. For whole day it works fine. But next day access denied error occurs again. I am not sure why this is happening. I have looked into Event Log and SharePoint Logs, found following information useful, but not sure what to do next.
Please help.

Hi pryank,
From the log, it seems that the users don’t have permission on this page:
/Projects/LFB/03 Bid Stage 1/Forms/AllItems.aspx
Does the sub site have unique permission instead of inheriting permission from the parent site? If no, you need to make the sub site to inherit permission from the site collection so that master page also inherits the right. If this is not allowed in your organization, please go to “Site Actions”à “Site Settings” à “Master Pages and Page Layouts” to give users permissions on this document library.
Hope this helps.

Deploying simple SharePoint 2013 feature causing error: "Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': An unknown exception occurred while executing a sandboxed code solution request in the worker process."

When trying to deploy a sandboxed solution containing only a feature with a simple associated event receiver from VS 2013, I'm getting the following error:
Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': An unknown exception occurred while executing a sandboxed code solution request in the worker process.\r\n|0
I'm working in Visual Studio 2013, deploying to SharePoint 2013.
The SharePoint project is very basic. I've only added a feature and an associated event receiver. It works without the event receiver. Then after I simply add the event receiver I get the error.
I've tried deploying directly from VS 2013 as well as publishing to a .WSP and uploading via web interface. Same error reported using both methods. I'm doing this using an Administrator account that I've confirmed is a site collection administrator.
Additionally, I've found that if I change Sandboxed Solution to False, deploy it, retract it, then change Sandboxed Solution back to True, then I can successfully deploy it. But this doesn't seem to be a permanent solution as the error will resurface a day
or two later...

Error occurred while preparing messages for Publication or while Publishing

Hello
I'm using the rdbms event generator created with WebLogic Integration Administration Console.
When the event generator runs on both my managed servers in the cluster I get the error message below. If it only runs on one of my managed servers, it works OK.
Please advice what I'm supposed to do.

i also have same error during load testing, mainly this error
"Unexpected exception while enlisting XAConnection java.sql.SQLException"
i tried rerunning after increasing connection pool sizes, transaction timeout, but no luck, marginal improvement in performance though
also tried changing the default tracking levl to none, but no luck.
i am with 8.1SP5, how about you ?
do share if you are able to bypass these errors
cheers

Help! "An Unknown Error Occurred"

Help! I've never had this warning message before.
I've had a wide variety of warning messages with iWeb in the past, and have always found a way to get around it or fix it. With many, all you have to do is ignore it the warning message, or simply continue to publish over and over again.
This I've NEVER had though. What does "an unknown error occurred" mean?
I've re-published several several times. How do I get around it?
I can't seem to update my site anymore, due to this warning message. What do I do?

One of the great mysteries in life is what the iWeb publish error notices really mean.
Apnewbie has some tips on publishiing errors here.
Some things to consider:
Has your internet or network setup changed at all?
Is iWeb still publishing? Sometimes an error like this appears, but iWeb is actually still publishing in the background. If I remember correctly, Apnewbie's page includes instructions for how to tell if publishing is still occurring. If not, post back here and we can provide them for you.
If this is happening while publishing to .mac, you might try publishing to a folder.

Restored Domain from backup, and now "An unknown error occurred"

iWeb (and my own mistakes) messed up my home page, so I decided to restore a backup copy of the Domain file from Time Machine back into user/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Everything copied fine and opened as I hoped in iWeb. No problems there.
But now, whenever I try to publish my site to MobileMe, iWeb gets through the process of uploading all the files, and then gives me a Publishing Error message saying, "An unknown error occurred." (It says this instead of giving the usual dialog box about my site being published, and do I want to visit my site now.) It looks like my site is operating just fine, new files and text published properly. But I can't get the error message to go away.
Any ideas? My site is here: http://web.mac.com/techinnoval

I don't know why, but now it's working fine. I made one change to my Home page, republished, and now no more error. Odd.

Unknown publish error?

Hi everyone
I've spent the last 12 hours trying to update my podcast but everytime I try to publish from iWeb 1.1.2 I get this:
*Publish error*
*An unknown error occured*
Also when I try to access the podcast page in firefox I get the page not found error, although I can open it via safari
Any idea what's going on? - I need to publish this podcast now as it's a competition which ends this week...

I had exactly the same problem but managed to resolve it. This is what I did:-
1. Go to to 'Go' menu in Finder and click 'Go to Folder'
2. Copy and past the following into the box: ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
3. Drag the Domain file into the trash.
4. Restart iWeb and publish to .mac
The only problem is that this deletes the old site info. For me this didn't matter as I only used the site for holidays photos, but it is obviously more of a problem if you have a more substantual site.

The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred.

I have just loaded iLife 09 on my MAC. I've edited a movie and now want to export it, put it in iTunes, whatever I can do to move it beyond my laptop. No matter what option I choose under Share I get the same error message, "The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occurred. (-2009)". I can find the error message online, but not the (-2009) error code. I'm also a longtime PC person who has just switched to a MAC. Can anyone help?

I also am having the exact same problem. iMovie '09. I have tried changing permissions on all sharing folders, exporting to desktop, sharing to iTunes in all size files - and yet still get "Unable to prepare project for publishing. error (-2009).

How can you get your music synced from iTunes to your iPod when a window pop ups on the screen saying"The iPod "Edward's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (13019))?

I had 429 songs already on my iPod Touch. When I was in the process of syncing a song from my iTunes Library on to my iPod, a window popped up on the screen saying, ""The iPod "Edward's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (13019)). I click "Device" on my iTunes Library to make sure the song was in my iPod. It showed the song that was recently synced now listed under "Device", but when I physically looked for the song on my iPod Touch, it does not appear on there at all. It all started when I decided to put a Playlist I created in the iTunes Library and transferred it on to my iPod. Do you know why it may affected my syncing process and is there any way where I could get the syncing function back to normal so that I can continue adding songs on my iPod? Thank you for listening. P.S. My iPod iOS version is 4.3.5.
