Publishing Website to External Server

Hello,
I am used to creating websites in html code in a windows based program, So I have paid for a domain and server space.
I now want to use a sub domain as a personal web page, But I want to use iWeb because it is quick, easy and i can do it on the go.
Can I not publish to my external server from iWeb??

You can't publish to your server directly from iWeb. First you have to publish to a folder (from iWeb File menu). Then you get what you're used to see: HTML files (and Folders,...). Upload those resulting files to your server as you're used to do: using an FTP application.
You maybe want to have a look at this page as well:

especially Chapter 3.1)
Regards,
Cédric

Using a site in iWeb to publish to an external server - problems with RSS

Hi!
I have a rather odd problem. I have a .Mac account, but I also work for a non-profit organization that has asked me to handle their website. I would like to use iWeb to do that and am attempting to publish the site to an external server. However, I also want to use iWeb to publish my own personal account pages to .Mac.
I have the site up and running, and most everything works on it except the RSS feed. I typed the url into the Publish to Server dialogue, but it has been to no avail. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that I am not publishing ALL of my sites to this server, just one of the sites. (When I invoke the Publish to Server command, it creates a master index and folders for each of the sites. Then, I have been discarding all of them except for the folder of the site I want to publish, which I have to name "public_html" to conform with our domain provider's requirements. This works great, except the RSS feed is broken when I do this.
I know I can use a seperate log-in account and re-make the entire webpage there, but I consider that to be a last resort and I am looking for a better method than this.
Any suggestions? The site is http://www.oatag.org

When you break the site structure by changing names of folders you also break the link for the RSS feed.
I find it hard to believe you are really required to change the name of the folder like that. Instead you should be inserting into the folder called public_html the following two things: the folder published by iWeb which has the same name as your site does inside iWeb, plus the index html file published alongside it. To make sure that this index.html file actually points to the site you are uploading, make sure this site is at the top of the list inside iWeb before publishing.

Publishing website index page

A few things to note:
- I host my website on mobile me, but i use my own domain name (purchased on godaddy.com).
- I've configured iWeb, Mobile Me, and Godaddy to point to the right domain.
The problem I am having is that the index page for my website is under www.mydomain.com/index/main. I want it to be www.mydomain.com/index (no second., i.e. main page). However, it seems as though iWeb forces you to have that second "main" page. I've renamed the pages on iWeb a few times to tweek the index page, but to no avail.
How can I do this?

If you are publishing your site to MobileMe, then there is nothing you can do about this. It is your site folder and your site name and this is normal iWeb site structure for this extra page to appear on publishing.
If you publish to an external server you can change this but the only way that you can do this in MobileMe is if you change your CNAME forwarding to masked web forwarding and then your url will become http://www.domain.com for every single page of your site. People can only bookmark your whole site and not individual pages.

really its strange only the site works if my flash builder is running , please help

Thanks all for your attention, i have solved my problem and i think its a bug in the flash builder , the problem was that when you compile the application and you enabling Network Monitoring , the communication of the AMF channels done throw the http://localhost:37813/flex2gateway/
and that was the problem if you close the flash builder on your system that getaway dose not exist and on the hosted server there is no such address localhost by this port also so the client application witch is catch in you system try to access your localhost and that cause a security error and the address is also not exist .
so the solution or we have to compile the project after we disable the Network Monitoring in flash builder .

I still have problems with getting my website online. I have defined my server. Then I did the test and there was a connection via FTP. I put my files on the external server and there is a connection with the external server. But when I check to see my website online (with Firefox, Explorer, Chrome browser) I always get the message 'Forbidden, You don't have permission to access / on this server.' Can somebody help me please? I have to get my website online..Thank you!

Hello Els,
it's well known, that in all these cases you describe I'm not a friend of a detailed Troubleshooting (I see Nancy#s smile already).
To be able to be independent in all this things It is one of the reasons why I prefer an external FTP program. The difficulties with which you have to fight encourage me in this opinion, not least because we always search for experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
To manage several websites or to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server or to use a "a site-wide synch", I'm using FileZilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Mac: Mac OS X (Use: Show additional download options)
http://filezilla-project.org/download.php
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server and for MIME issues, you should contact your web host/provider.
Good luck!
Hans-Günter
P.S.
Since I use two screens, the whole thing became even more comfortable.

Has anyone else had problems uploading modifyed files to an external server

Hi, My website bilyz.com has been running OK on two external servers, two different hosting providers, yet neither will allow me to upload modified files.
Since both external servers will run my site OK this narrows the problem source down to my site construction (pre 2014 update) or to Muse software.
The external servers will accept all my html files without a hitch but stalls at various images and not always the same image.
Now I have totally rebuilt the site by stripping out all images, resizing them and remounting them into the slider widget but it doesn't make a difference.
The external server technicians are at a loss to explain and after research have referred me back to Adobe Muse.
Kind regards
Bill Watters

Thank you Aish
As per your suggestion I published the unchanged site to Business Catalyst as bilyzcom.businesscatalyst.com and it uploaded without a fault. Then I made an alteration to the Gallery page where I changed one image in the slider and a small typo on the Design page. Then published again but this time I selected 'options' and clicked on 'modified files only' Result: The site uploaded perfectly and the altered pages showed the recent changes.
So can we conclude that the source of the problem isn't in the Muse software?.
However, If this problem only occurs with the external server since the update; it also stalls when uploading all files and with modified files so could it point to the recent Muse 2014 update?
Yesterday I have also uninstalled my most recent version then re-installed it via the Creative Cloud File manager. . My copy is 2014.0.1.30 CL 785017
I hope this gives you something to work on.
I look forward to your reply.

Can I publish an OS X Server hosted calendar?

Can I publish an OS X Server hosted calendar to the internet for sharing via subscription.
I would like to publish a calendar for subscription to users who are not server users within Open Directory. Ideally they could subscribe to an .ics file via webdav. It appears that server based calendars can only be shared with other server users.

There are a couple of things you would need to do.
Open your router to allow calendar traffic in and out of your network (be carefull about opeing any custom ports on a router as it could allow for unotherised attacks). All internal user passwords should then be strong and all traffic should be encrypted.
Have your external server.mydomain.com DNS point to a public ip address. - At your router you can rout it to the server machine (public ip's would be supplied by your ISP). This will allow external calendar subscription traffic know where to get the information from.
For invetation replies to work from outside your network to your internal network you will need to get your ISP to set up reverse pointer for your domain to point to your public ip address. This allows people outside your network to accept or decline your calendar invetation - and allows your calendar server to automatlycally post those replies in the relevent calendar.
I havnt gone into much depth with these steps because personally I have moved to using iCloud.
For all the hassle and potential risks of opening up your network I would alternativly set your users up with a free iCloud account and use the calendar service there. Super easy and it works. It also limits the potential external attacks on your network.

How to publish website from iWeb ?

Hi Apple Geniuses
I have downloaded Server 2.1.1 thought I would be able to publish my website after losing MobileMe hosting. I would love to publish it again but the process with Server seems to be more complicated, not to say...less straight forward. I have tried some couple of thing but unsuccessfully.
Would anyone of you recommend the step to follow using Server software only (and not recommending any third party website please) to enable the publishing of my website. Alternatively , does anyone would recommend tutorial on how to use Server to publish website.
To all of you, in advance, Thank you.
Fred

Hi Mark
I grately appreciate your support and the first couple of steps were easy to follow. However , I'm quite puzzled with the last paragraph in regard to DNS, DynIP, CNAME...
When I have allocated the folder , it did change the TCP from 80 to 443 and I manually reset it to 80...is that where you told to direct the TCP to?
Here is a snap shot of my setting
Let me know if I'm going the right route thank you.

Safari behaving differently with site on .mac/external server

Hello. I've started creating a little webpage of mine and I've noticed that when uploaded to .mac the top bar (for selecting pages within the site) works correctly, but when the site is uploaded to an external server the top bar goes bust. It is so under Safari, not so under Firefox, which seems to "decode" everything correctly. Here are both pages (identical uploads):
.mac: http://web.mac.com/milosz.sosnowski/Site/Start.html
external: http://www.staff.amu.edu.pl/~miloszso/Site/Start.html
Thank you for your help

milosz.sosnowski wrote:
Could someone please delete this topic
There are worser topics sometimes
I just wanted to say that...
If a change doesn't display to you in the browser after you published and uploaded it mostly is because the old version of the page is cached (memorized) by your browser. Thus simply emptying the cache of the browser (Open Safari, choose Safari from the menu and go to Empty Cache) and reloading the page should display the changes.

Variable Height for an Iframe on External server

Our company is developing an internal website. we are using
extensis portoflio to manage a showcase area and moveable type for
a blog area. On the pages where the portfolio content will be
pulled in we are using an iframe (this content lives on the same
server as the webpage), I am able to get the height of the iframe
for this page to resize depending on the content, in Firefox only
in Explorer it cuts some of the iframe off. Can anyone help with
this first.
Secondly and almost more IMPORTANTLY is the blog. I cannot
get the height of the iframe to resize depdening on the content as
it is on another server. I have tried every method out
there!!!!!!!!!!!! Am at my wits end. The external server seems to
be the issue, it's not even external it's just another server in
our domain--**UGH**
Please help!

there's an example in dynamicdrive.com that works "almost"
fine in IE &

I am testing this out. I am using Dreamweaver MX and iCal 06. How do I publish a calendar so that it is viewable on my website through a web page? I can publish an .ics file, but it doesn't seem to know what that is or how to display it. I need help on this. Thanks

Thanks Bill,
I have been using WebDav for so long to view my iCals remotely that I can't figure out what your problem could be. It has always worked so well for me, and I use phpiCalendar to view them remotely.
My set up until yesterday was syncing my Palm to the office mac, publishing them to the WebDav server, as well as publishing my wife's iCals to the server, for a total of 4, all easily viewable from the net.
Lately I hve been looking into alternatives to that and at the risk of hijacking your topic, I have discovered another solution that provides a huge benifit to us.
As of today I can view AND edit any of the 4 iCals from either of our machines, AND keep them in sync WITH edit capabilities, as well as sync to my Palm Treo, and also publish to the web server as I did before for view only or subscrtiption, although the publish route seems pretty redundant now as I have all the cals on my palm from both machines and I have a live editable calendar on all 3 of my macs (the remote portable included) of all 4 cals!. I also sync to the cals remotely (across the internet) on my Palm.
If you want to know more about this set up, I would be glad to expand on it. It seems to finally answer all my syncing, editing multiple cals on multiple machines, needs.
Hope this helps,

Steps to publish ABAP WS externally

Requirement:- Need to provide everyone an Adobe form in offline manner in order to apply for Job positions and when they click on Submit data inside the form, all the data should go to ECC.
Solution: To implement this requirement we have developed Adobe form and created a custom BAPI which will update the ECC. Using inside-out approach we have exposed the BAPI as custom WS and done the technical settings in SOAMANAGER transaction. Right now its working fine, as we are checking from within the network.
Problem : Now since everyone should be able to access this WS, it's necessary to publish it to a UDDI I believe. Since we are on ECC 6.0 (w/o any EHP) we do not have any Service Registry where we can publish it. We do not have PI as well. The SAP UDDI uddi.sap.com does not open.
Can someone please guide as to what will be next steps in order to publish this WS externally so that its available for everyone.

Hi Chintan,
So without exposing the server outside the firewall, how can I publish it online so that everyone can download the form and submit the data.
From what I see here, by "publish" you mean "make the application (Web service) available to the public so that everybody can use it."
In the context of Web services and UDDI, "publish" has a different meaning. In short, when you develop a Web service you make it available on some system and configure it. What you have now is:
(a) The Web service as an application which the user can use.
(b) The information about this Web service, that is, where it is available, what it is about, an so on.
The UDDI server is intended to store (b) and not (a). The process of storing (b) in an UDDI server is called "publishing". By "publishing" the Web service to the UDDI server, you actually make the information about this Web service available in the UDDI server. Then other users can access the UDDI server and find information about your Web service. If they decide to use your Web service, they take from the UDDI server the information about how to access it.
To summarize, the UDDI server is just a kind of registry, or yellow pages. While you can "publish" Web services in it, you will find there only what they do and how to access them.

Page formats off after uploading to external server

I have finally successfully uploaded my organization's site created in iWeb to an external server. However, the page formats changed a little in the process. Small things, like graphics shifting position, font sizes changing ( I used "web-friendly" fonts throughout).
I currently have the site open in Safari, as well as iWeb open, to compare. Things look fine in iWeb, but how can I make sure they upload without changing?

There is no problem with having a shape with a text box dropped over it. This is preferable to typing your text in the shape itself as the text will then be converted to an image and increase your file size.
When you have, say, a text box and an image overlapping they tend to push each other about.
Try publishing your site to a folder on the desktop and double clicking the index.html file to launch your site in the browser direct from your hard disk. If its OK there then the problem is publishing.
Make sure you use a good FTP application to upload your files.

Can't find my published website

Hi,
After creating my dreamweaver website, i clicked on 'manage sites' and under 'remote info' for my site, i selected 'local/network' access to publish to the web. Beforehand, i followed instructions to start the macintosh web server 'Apache'.
I was a bit confused as to which folder to select as my remote folder. I clicked on the folder icon and chose the same folder i am using as my local folder. I'm not sure if this was right.
Now where is my published website? If i go to Apple - System Preferences - Sharing and click on either of the addresses i was given when i turned web sharing on, my website doesn't appear as i predicted it would.
What am i doing wrong? Please help. Thanks,
Erin.

Hello Erin
Remote info is the section of site management you use to tell DW where you live site is. So in my sites, thats where I put my host details for FTP. If you are using Apache on your own PC you need to look at the Testing Server.
This tutorial is listed in the forum FAQ page and will tell you what you need to know. If you have Apache set up on you machine you could skipp to page 5 where there's a section on settin up DW to use your installation.
I hope that helps

iCloud does NOT allow you to host your web sites. You can continue to use iWeb but, will need a 3rd party web host to upload your websites to. Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:
iWeb '09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder. ( With the built in FTP in iWeb you will end up with an address like "www.YourDomain.com/sitename/Home.html )
iWeb '08 you can publish your website to a local folder
