Publishing ERROR - Patience wearing THIN

Dear all,
Sorry to REPOST this topic again, even though there are some question regarding "Publish Error"... But my patience is wearing very THIN... and came to somewhere near intolerable point...
Note: English isn't my first language but I will try my best to explain how I did, and what I think about this issue...
In order to make my publishing from iWeb to .Mac successfully I would have to do following step (sometimes repeating more than once)
1. After made some change to the site... I would Publish it...
- then get error on some files mostly index.html, or.. other xxx.png files...
so
2. I had to log off myself... then login again.
3. Empty my Trash... for those temporary file which I don't really know why are they there?
4. Remove file in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist
5. Remove all files publish in iDisk via www.mac.com method rather the iDisk on the computer... because it was too slow to remove from iDisk itself...
Including
- Web/Sites/index.html
- Web/Sites/iWeb
- Web/RSS/iWeb
6. Force Publish all by "control+publish all"
If I am lucky enough it would have been successfully published... otherwise... I would have to redo step 2 - 6 again...
My Question : Are those steps necessary? I previously only successfully published my web without those steps nor errors only less than 3 times... since I ever used iWeb (Beginning of Jan)...
Are there any SOLID SOLUTION to this? iWeb is fantastic... But I think it is too much since my own blog is growing, as well as other part of my web..
PLEASE COMMENT... anything... OR Contribute any SOLUTION if exists...???
Cheers

Four things could be going on, but it's fixable.
first.. make sure that your screen saver, and energy saver are turned off in your system preferences. iWeb had trouble with this in it's first version, but since the update it's supposed to be fixed, but I'd still do it.
second, it's been my experience that iweb is affected by bandwidth issues while uploading. If you're using your browser, uploading or downloading anything else... you'll get the error message and that one file couldn't upload. Make sure that when you click on the publish button you walk away from the computer and don't use it. This appears to be a bigger problem for us G4 users than the G5 folks. Also, it's a memory hog, so seriously, when you publish turn everything else off except your computer and iWeb and walk away. Seems to work for me.
Third... make sure your idisk is NOT loaded onto your desktop. If it starts refreshing and files are getting put there while you're uploading, iWeb will give you the dreaded error message.
Finally, just keep republishing. iWeb seems to bog down when you publish sometimes. I re-uploaded my entire website last night, including 7 video podcasts and numerous other blogs that have audio and video in them. I had to publish and publish and publish.... it took four tries, but it finally finished. It seems that it gets farther and farther along each time. Anyway... it works.
Also, once you've published succesfully, it goes faster the next time. I'm still convinced that it's a bandwidth issue and that iWeb times out when there are problems on either your server, your computer, or apple. Anyway... doing these things cleared up the largest share of publishing errors for me.
Hope this helps.

  • Patience running thin. max HEIGHT after I publish to bizcat.

    what a piece of garbage.  this is only reason i joined creative cloud.  I have a site in progress and when i publish it to view in on business catalyst, the resulting site seems to have a max height, cutting off everything below 600px.  All else is working fine on other sites where site properties, footer, header, etc are in common.
    Can I upload my files for staff member to view and let me know what’s going on.
    It is a cross browser problem.  it works in preview mode, but after it is published there is something lost, or added in translation.
    Please help - my patience for trial and error is running thin.

    The following email was sent yesterday, and since then I have published the site to a third part host, go daddy, and the problem was carried over to them as well. http://kinetikartz.com/
    Obviosly this is a much larger problem than i had anticipated, which allows me to conclude that muse is the problem and not bizcatalyst.
    An accurate preview comes when i "Preview" the page within muse, as well as when i "Preview in Browser (all browsers)."  Fail seems to come upon uploading to 3rd party FTP.  I'm not sure if it is worth exporting the muse file then uploading it to godaddy but i'll give it a shot.  Time is of the essence may be an overstatement, but it is surely an unexpected distraction, and hopefully a problem with a solution, and to be even more optimistic, a problem on my part so I can be sure to avoid it later under my own control rather than crossing my fingers in hopes that a muse bug may falter my efforts of the 99% of my work which went into the site pre-publishing.
    Thanks

  • IWeb 1.1 Image Publishing Errors

    When I try to publish my site, I encounter random publishing errors relating to images on my site.
    Most of the time, they are images that I've never even heard of (and don't show up under a spotlight search either!). I'm assuming that they're images programed into the chosen template, but why would Apple put images into the templates that create errors? This would be the second time that I've uploaded my page to .mac with v1.1 and I had no problems the first time. All I changed was I added a few more blogs and some pictures.

    Thank you for contacting Apple.
    Apple is investigating an issue that can cause some to receive one of the the following alerts when using iWeb 1.1 to publish to their .Mac website:
    - Unable to read your iDisk quota
    - An error occurred while publishing file "[filename]".
    - .Mac account credentials validation failed for account "[member name]"
    We apologize for any inconvenience, and appreciate your patience as we investigate. We will email you again once we have more information regarding this.
    Sincerely,

  • 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
    grani

    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.

  • I keep getting the following error message while sharing my iMovie to iDVD.  "Unable to prepare project for publishing"  error (-2125).

    I keep getting the following error message while sharing my iMovie to iDVD.  "Unable to prepare project for publishing"  error (-2125).  I'm running iMovie 09 v. 8.0.6 on a iMac with OSX v 10.6.8, 2Ghz core duo, 1GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM.  Any ideas why?

    That particular error comes up for a number of reasons, sometimes it's the size of the movie you're trying to export. Bengt Wärleby a longtime contributor to the iMovie Discussion Group has advised a number of people on this error code, so I am going to link to his latest advice he's given to anyone trying to export to DVD from iMovie: Bengt's tips for great DVDs.
    Specifically, try bypassing Share to iDVD by using Share to Media Browser instead.
    In the Share to Media Browser dialog box choose the Large Size.
    When(If?) it gets through that process, quit iMovie altogehter then go to iDVD.
    Create a new project and click on the Media button near the lower right hand side of the Project Window.
    Then click the Movies button in the Browser window just above that.
    Under the iMovie star icon you should see the name of the project you shared out from iMovie.
    Drag that into the project and burn the DVD.
    If it's still to large or you get the same -2125 error code trying to Share using the Medium size instead. But again if you really get stuck consult Bengt Warleby's User tips:

  • IMovie '09 "Unable to Prepare Project for Publishing" error (-2009)

    Please help ! I have just created a small movie in iMovie '09 from imported clips from Sony Handycam with miniDV tapes. All clips imported easily and can be viewed and edited. Though when I try to share the project to iTunes or even export it to my desktop I get the message "Unable to prepare the project for publishing" error (-2009).
    I have been searching the forum and the web for an answer or quick fix and I see none, though i do see that many people are having this same issue. I already have all permission set to read & write on all the appropriate folders. I don't know what else to do.....I was hoping to have this project done for a Christmas present for my wife.
    Please help .... ! ! !

    I think I know what was the problem in my case. My project-file wasn´t very large, but I imported all my movies in one single event. After splitting the movies up into different events, I was able to export my project....

    Hi Kim
    1. SAS cubes are not currently supported - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10417.pdf. Unless SAS cubes can use the MS drivers?
    2. If you try and pursue it you might check the permissions on the ddll in the error to ensure you have rights over it.
    Either way you are not supported with a SAS cube so you are kinda on your own. Sorry I dont use SAS so Im not going to be much help other than stating the obvious :0)

  • IWeb 08 UPGRADE and now receive a "Publish Error"

    I am receiving a "An unknown Error occurred" Publish Error after I upgraded to iWeb 08. I cleaned out my iDrive directory, modified my website, etc, and still receive the same error. PLEASE HELP!

    I got the "Publish Error", "An unknown error occurred." message when I was publishing to a folder. I tried again and watched the progress carefully, noting that it seem to stop on a blog page. I also found this message in the console log:

  • I tried to implement photo albums using iweb and got a publishing error.

    I tried to implement photo albums using iweb and got a publishing error. All was fine with my site until I added the photo album page. The software doesnt say what the error is exactly, only that it is a publishing error to my ftp
    Exact message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider."
    If I reduce the albums inside to 1 then it seems to work but that takes away from the usefullness of multiple albums.
    my iWeb version is 3.0.4 (601)

    Publish your site to a folder on your hard drive to see if the publication will proceed successfully and open the site locally with your browser to confirm all of the alums are there and work.  If they do try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    Click to view full size
    launch iWeb and try again.
    If you're still not able to publish from iWeb to your server download and use the free  Cyberduck to upload your website files to the server. Users have found that CD has been successful when iWeb had problems.

  • PUBLISH ERROR in iWeb

    Hello. I just started using iWeb '08 2.0.2 a couple of weeks ago, and all was going well until...
    Now whenever I publish, I get an error message "Publish Error, an error occurred while publishing file ... Try publishing again later."
    Here's what I've done, based on advice in this message board:
    1) Tried again later. Error still happens.
    2) Publish All to .Mac. It took a long time, but still the same result in the end.
    3) Publish to a folder. I tried the entire site in the local folder, and it works fine. Then I manually copied the folders to the iDisk folder. (That copy was painfully slow, several hours!)
    Once copied to the iDisk, the website does not work properly. Specifically, the photo albums no longer appear on the photo pages. Viewing the page source of the photo pages when browsing on line, I see that all the java code is missing, whereas it is still there when I browse the version on my local disk from the "Folder" publish.
    Anyway, the website is now a bit crippled, and I can't really invest more time in it since the program is so buggy. Can anyone help?
    Many thanks.

    I've discovered something weird that I wonder if it has anything to do with not being able to publish. Since I upgraded to iLife 08 when I click "visit site" I get a web page that says the site doesn't exist. Yet when I go to my bookmark that I have for my site it shows up. The addresses are different. The address that iWeb is trying to go to is http://web.mac.com/username/site/page.html. My actual site address is: http://web.mac.com/username/iWeb/site/page.html.
    Is iWeb somehow confused? I did at one time copy off iWeb and delete the site of my iDisk and tried to publish all, but that didn't work, so I copied the site back to my iDisk.

  • 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?

    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 :

  • How can I solve this publishing error in iWeb?

    Suddenly, when I try to publish in iWeb, I get the following error message:
    Publish error:
    Can't create the file "site/home.html." The disk may be damaged or full, or you must not have sufficient access privileges
    Well, I have a Mac Pro tower, loaded with plenty of space and my disk definitely isn't damaged. Go Daddy (my host) first told me it might be a firewall problem and to contact my internet provider, which I did. But they told me there were no outgoing firewalls. So I went back to go Daddy, who reset all my permissions, but I still got the same iWeb message listed above when I tried to publish. Go Daddy was able upload my files at their end as a test, which means the problem is right here with my iWeb.
    Anyone have any ideas?
