Any chance that file is exactly 8,192 bytes or a multiple

How do I remove old web site when publishing new site with same URL in iweb? Hit replace when publishing new iweb site (so we could have control over changes) but new site name is attached to old via a / after our www address we want to keep.

I hit the replace when publishing the new iweb site (so we could have control over changes - last one was not an apple based site) but new site name is attached to old via a forward slash and underscore after our www address. Makes it very messy with a very long web address. Original address now followed by iweb site name followed by name of first page? Went for iweb as not that computer literate - all going so well?! Cheers for help in anticipation. Have to get off to work now but be great end to week if we could be sorted tonight. Rupes

Well yes of course, if you try and publish through iWeb there won't be an option to publish without your site folder which is exactly why I told you to download Cyberduck and use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server having published your site from iWeb to a local folder. That is what you need to do if you don't want your site name to be included in yoru url.
It would have been easier also if you had used Cyberduck initially to connect to your server and delete your old site yourself - at least that way you would have deleted the correct files rather than relying on your hosting service to do it and doing it incorrectly.
Download Cyberduck and then select the publish to a local folder option from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server, but rather than uploading the whole site folder and separate index file, upload ONLY the contents of your site folder and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.
It really isn't rocket science!

How to add default associated groups when creating new site

Hi All,
I am trying to create a new subsite in sharepoint 2013 using CSOM (code is mentioned below). But no default groups (MEMBER, VISITOR, OWNER) are getting created in that site. When we try through UI we will got through a page "Set Up Groups
for this Site" where we can specify these details.. Is it possible to do the same (creating default groups together with the site creation) through CSOM or powershell.
CSOM code:
WebCreationInformation creation = new WebCreationInformation();
            creation.Url = "NewSubSite6";
            creation.Title = "NewSubSite6";
            creation.UseSamePermissionsAsParentSite = false;
            Web newWeb = clientContext.Web.Webs.Add(creation);
            //clientContext.Load(newWeb);
            clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
Regards,
Shahabas

Shahbas, here is the code:
private static void SetSecurityOnSubSite(ClientContext clientContext, ListItem item, bool confidential, Web newWeb)
try
if (confidential)
newWeb.BreakRoleInheritance(false, false);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
Group ownerGroup = default(Group); Group memberGroup = default(Group); Group visitorGroup = default(Group);
// web has unique permissions, so create default assosiated groups (owners, members, visitors)
if (!newWeb.GroupExists(newWeb.Title + " Owners"))
ownerGroup = newWeb.AddGroup(newWeb.Title + " Owners", "", true);
clientContext.Load(ownerGroup);
if (!newWeb.GroupExists(newWeb.Title + " Members"))

Hard drive replaced, can't update site or create new site

My hard drive crashed and was replaced. I had backed up the pages of my site, but apparently not the domain file. My site is still on the web but I can't update it. Now, I can't even start over from scratch. When I open iWeb, the only thing in the site organizer is "site" and the "+" button to add a new page is disabled, as are all the commands in the pull-down "file" menu (except for "close").
Any ideas how I can start over and build a site again?
Thanks!
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You can't.
the file that you should have backed up was your Domain file. iWeb could not rebuilt the domain file from the publish html files.

When a new site is created can a user name and password be generated for it automatically?

I have a work request from a manager that is asking, when a new site is created (via workflow), that a generic user name and password be created just for that site?
If it is possible I would like for it to be created at the same time as the site be being created or do I need to wait until after the site is created and then trigger a workflow to create the generic user account?
this account is only needed to do one thing.. upload documents to a folder.
of course there can be multiple sites being built at one time and would like for this to be auto generated.... and possible be in a hidden list so I can include the info in a workflow email letting the receiver of the email know that
they need to use this specific user name and password just for this site.

Hi SPSAdminTC,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create sites and grant users permissions on the sites via workflow in SharePoint 2013.
Users are stored in AD, before you grant site permissions to them, the name and password have existed in AD users and groups. So, you need to add the users into AD before you grant permissions to them.
In SharePoint 2013 Designer, you can use REST API to create site and assign permissions to users. You can use Send Email action to send email to users and customize the body of the email.
More information, please take a look at:

I hope this helps.

Dreamweaver CS3 - Cannot create root and image folder in Site Management. (Create New Site)

Good day everyone,
I am not able to create folders for a new site in Dreamweaver CS3.
This is the problem:
I open Dreamweaver
I go to site and click on create new site
In the new site panel I name the site eg: Test Site
Then I click on the browse folder to attached a root folder and image folder for the site
This is where the problem starts, when I browse to the folders, Dreamweaver does not keep the location/path.
Like this: My folder is created in the following directory.
C:\xampp\htdocs\my_site_folder
So when I browse to this folder and click save
the path does not stay in Dreamweaver, all the stays is this.
C:\xampp\htdocs\
The site name does not remain.
I cannot get Dreamweaver to hold the path.
Same for the image folder.
I noticed this started to happened after I updated Vista to Service pack 2.
I have never seen this happen before.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
Patrick

Can't create new sites in Dreamweaver CS3. Help!

I am trying to create a new site in Dreamweaver CS3 but keep
getting the following error:
"The action cannot be completed because the other program is
busy.
Choose 'Switch to' to activate the program and correct the
problem"
I have tried every documented solution on the adobe website
and other discussion forums and still cannot get past the problem.
I have restarted the IIS server on my local PC as documented
on the following adobe technote:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_16485&sliceId=2
Other things I have done:
1. I have followed all the advice in the links at the bottom
of the above page.
2. I have created a new user, logged into that and tried
creating a site with a "virgin" environment
and I still have the problem.
3. I have gone into the registry and renamed the site
configuration info in case something was corrupted.
This removed all my site configurations. No help!
4. I have turned of my firewall and restarted the IIS
server.
5. I have searched the web for anything even remotely
similar to this error and tried every tip out there.
I called Adobe and they referred me back to the technote
above, which I had already tried.
One last bit of info. I can't create new sites, but I can
edit web pages in my existing sites. However, I cannot change the
configuration of the website in the Manage Sites area (i.e. I can't
push the Edit button).
Has anyone had this problem? Any help would be appreciated. I
have hit a brick wall on this one and am trying to meet a deadline
on a new website I need to create.
If I can't find a solution quick, I will be an
ex-Dreamweaver user. That saddens me because I really like
Dreamweaver, but I have to perform on my job.

Problem creating new sites. The formula refers to a column that does not exist

Good morning,
I have a problem creating new sites in my development environment. We have a template which works properly when we create new sites with it. However, when we add one new content type in the site created and save it as a new template, we can't create new sites
with this template. The error log is that there are one problem in one column [The formula refers to a column that does not exist. Check the formula for spelling mistakes or change the non-existing column to an existing column].
I have opened the wsp template with visual studio but I can´t discover what column is the problem because the log only refers to the feature (ListInstances).
Anybody knows how to find my problematic column?
The error is:
Feature Activation: Threw an exception, attempting to roll back. Feature 'plantilla Llave en Mano 20141222 v2ListInstances' (ID: '6c61a3bf-3c51-4064-958b-d154729233e7'). Exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: La fórmula hace referencia a una

Thanks in advance

Hi Enrique,
According to your description, after added a content type into the new site and save the site as a template, there is an issue when creating another new with the newly
site template.
Based on the error message “The formula refers to a column that does not exist…”, seems that it would be an issue of a Calculated column in the content type you added,
please go through all the Calculated column in that content type to see if the formulas all work well.
Feel free to reply if there any progress.
Best regards,

Can I still create new sites in iweb and publish them to mobile me?

Can I still create new sites in iweb and publish them to mobile me? Also Can the sites not contain movies or photos, or just not a full gallery?

You can have as many sites and domain names on a single MMe account. However, only one site can use the CNAME domain name forwarding while the others must use URL forwarding.
Multiple Sites with Domain Name(s) in a Single MobileMe Account
Here's how to have multiple sites in a single MMe account with one or more sites having a domain name.
A. All sites are in the same Domain.sites2 files
1 - only one site can use the CNAME method of domain name forwarding and it must the top site in the left hand pane of iWeb.
Click to view full size
2 - the other sites must use URL domain name forwarding which directs the domain name to the site's full MMe URL, http://web.me.com/MMeUsername/SiteName, or, if there is no domain name, just MobileMe's full URL.
B. Each site is in its own Domain.sites2 file.
Again, only one site can use CNAME forwarding. This presents a problem since CNAME forwarding directs the domain name to the basic MMe account URL: http://web.me.com/MMe_Username/ which uses an index.html file in the root folder of the account, iDisk/Web/Sites. Each time a new site is published or an existing site uses the File->Publish Entire Site a new index.html file is created in that root directory, iDisk/Web/Sites folder, directing the browser to that particular site. This file is what the CNAME method uses to find the site it represents.
Therefore some steps must be taken to assure that the index.html file in the MMe Accounts root directory always points to the correct site. This can be accomplished is three ways.
1 - don't use the CNAME method. Just use URL forwarding . This, IMO, is the simplest method as it doesn't requre any additional effort on the user once the domain name has been set up.
2 - use the following method suggested by Wyodor in this topic: Is it possible to have multiple sites when using ur Domain name?
In iWeb domainfile 1:
Create a dummy site : _dummy
with a blank page.
Create your working site : Whatever
Add pages
Publish both Sites to the same same location on the same server.
Your _dummy site is now the default Site.
Check.
In iWeb domainfile 2:
Create/Use your CurrentSite.
Move a page to the top of the Site and back. Publish the Site.
iWeb will create a new index.html file in the root of the server and from now on CurrentSite is the default site.
Check.
From now on, never move your Whatever Site to the top of the list in the iWeb sidebar and never change the page in the _dummy site.
Simply do not touch your _dummy ever again. And never forget that.
3 - use Ethmoid's suggested method in Using two sites - setting one up with separate domain? or republishing the entire site that uses CNAME forwarding. Just making a minor change and publishing the site changes does not create a new index.html file.
The entire site must be republsihing in order to get that new site.
Or keep a copy of the CNAME site's index.html file on your Mac and replace it manually in the iDisk/Web/Sites fodler when necessary.
NOTE: the CNAME method provides a shorter URL: http://www.DomainName.com/Site_Name/PageName. CNAME does not have masking.
The URL forwarding displays the full MMe URL:
http://web.me.com/MMeUsername/Domain_Name/PageName.
With domain name masking that will be shortened to:
http://www.Domain_Name.com for every page of your site.
However, visitors will only be able to bookmark and enter at the first page of the site. If a page is refreshed the visitor is taken back to the first page. Also search engines will only be able to index the first page of the site.

Creating new site

I'm new to UCM/ Site Studio. I have the sample site installed which works fine, but when I use Site Studio to create a new site, the immediate error I get is:
Failed to create new site hierarchy "NewSite".
(Invalid metadata for 'SS_PROJECT_NewSite'. Virtual folder does not exist.)
What's going on here? I also tried to get around it by creating a different weblogic user project, but that gave Site Studio Is it just that buggy?

Grr.
I did indeed go to Set Default Project Document Info, but going in there again the "Folder" value was blank. So I clicked "Browse", then selected no folder (just "OK") and then the folder value was set to "/". After I clicked Save it worked and I could create a new site.
So it works now, but this seems like a bug that I needed to click Browse and Ok for it to work...

Created new site, now can't update.. please help!

I created my new site in IWeb 08 after the upgrade. My old site stayed in IWeb until I was done replicating it. I did pull the blog from the old site to the new site so I wouldn't lose my entries.
Everything looks great in IWeb. However when I publish it goes through the creating pages stuff and finishes. But instead of telling me go visit my page, it tells me my .mac membership expires in 2 weeks and ask if I want to renew. It's set to automatic renewel so I'm not going to renew it again.
The funny thing is. Prior to me adding my videos and photos in I could publish fine. I actually see the first part of what I published fine. Just can't publish anymore. I noticed that after I do publish I have to restart IWeb before I can publish again because it won't recognize that the files have changed.
Could this be because I have too many photos / videos? Is this what it would do. I have about 7 qt 1-2 minute videos, and one 19 minute qt video. Then I have about 200 photos.
I have the minimum .mac storage account. 5 GB i think? I didn't cross that i doubt.
Thanks!

As an update. Now I publish it and it's going through the motions... I just never get the confirmation that it was published. But all my pages turn blue to indicate they have been... Only they really wern't updated. I close IWeb and come back and they are all red. I repeat the upload process... file, upload all to .mac... logging in... creating page x...y...z... dissapears. Pages turned blue, nothing is update.
Help!

Creating new site collection using wsp template fails

Everything worked until last month, now after CU installation (agoust 2014) I get an error:
"List does not exist. The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user."
Does anyone know how to solve it?

SharePoint 2010 - Create new site collection in existing web application with different existing content DB

I have a SharePoint 2010 root level site collection SC1 in web application WEBAPP1. I want to create copy of that site collection in same web application WEBAPP1. Apart from Import/Export, Restore/Backup options, will following approach work? If yes , how?
I took backup of content database of web application.
Restored database with different name
Mounted Content database to this WEBAPP1 by assigning new ID to DB
Created new site collection by using this newly mounted DB
Site collection gets created successfully but content does not appear.
Please guide if i can achieve desired functionality by using this approach.
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered

It is because the Site GUID is identical, and each GUID can only be present on the farm once. You can use Backup-SPSite/Restore-SPSite (which is full-fidelity, unlike Export-SPWeb/Import-SPWeb), which will generate a new GUID for the restore Site Collection,
even in the same Web App.

Use a Custom Page Layout When Creating [[new pages]] in Enterprise Wiki

I have followed a few different blogs and I've been able to create a custom wiki content type and create a new page layout based off of that content type. I've also set my site so that my new layout is the default page layout. This works when creating
new pages on the site but when i try to create a new wiki page --> [[new page]], I'm still getting the typical blank wiki template. How on earth do i get my page layout to sync with creating a new wiki page?

Hi,
For your issue, go to Site Actions > Site Settings > Page layouts and site templates (Under Look and Feel).
Pages in this site can only use the following layouts: add custom wiki template.
Select default page layout: choose custom wiki template.
Besides, here is a blog, you can use as a reference:
