Unable to create a specific Active Directory mobile Account

Dear Community,
I do have a problem with one workstation when I want to login with a specific Active Directory mobile user account. The login window will shake and refuse login due to invalid credentials... but this is not true, on other workstations the same account works without any problem. And also the Active Directory settings are verified and correct and other mobile account also work.
So I tried to create the mobile account manually via Terminal :
sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/ManagedClient.app/Contents/Resources/createmobilea ccount -n username
sudo createhomedir -c -u username
But this command results in an error that the account already exists, trying to delete, again an error null, etc... so no way.
So I tried to start up in Single-User-Mode and get into dscl to finally delete this mysterious account daemon... but again I'm resulting in an error:
dscl . -delete /Users/{username}
<dscl_cmd> DS Error: -14009 (eDSUnknownNodeName)
Anyone any idea how to get this base cleaned so I can make this specific operator work on this specific Mac ? Help greatly appreciated. Thanks
Cheers

Could it be DNS cache?

The LSAP DB?

I have been unable to publish my website due to this message "iweb quit unexpectedly - the problem may have been caused by FTP plug-in" - Iweb seems to register all pages, then crashes before publishing.Tried quite few thread trouble shoots, no luck.Help?

I have mac book pro 10.5 Leopard
Have just started using iweb and have small site of about 5 pages, plus blog. I have yet been able to publish, each time I try iweb crashes and receive following note -
The application iweb quite unexpectedly. The problem may have been caused by the FTPKit Plug-in.
I have tried a few troubleshooting methods recomended on other threads, ie. deleting caches, copying domain and reboots... but no luck.
Any help very much appreciated.

Reinstall iWeb from the source you got it from originallhy. Or, if you're running iWeb 3 download and apply or reapply the iWeb 3.0.4 updater. It included that plugin.

Unable to publish new or changes to old website

For three days, I have been unable to publish my website(s). I have three. Two are published, but I can't publish changes to them. The third is new and I am unable to publish it to .mac. The same error message appears each time I try:
Publish Error. Publish failed due to a network error. Check your Internet connection and try again.
My connection is fine (wireless). Email and browers work fine. I even switched to a new browser to check. I re-installed the OS 10.4.8 software. I've done everything I can think of - and can't get IWeb to work.
Has anyone experienced this problem? Any advice? Solutions?
Thank you.

Tervrun,
Not an uncommon problem.
My connection is fine (wireless). Email and browers work fine.
Doesn't necessarily mean that your ability to upload to .Mac via WebDav is fine, by any means. Here's some things to try.
First, separate your sites into individual Domain files. This way iWeb will not re-create all of your Sites each time you try to publish, nor will it chug through the verification process for everything you have. You will only be dealing with one Site at a time--makes things much easier, especially if you have blogs on your sites. You can do this using a nice little freeware app called iWebSites, or you can use the manual folder method. I like the folder structure, myself. I have seen a number of instances where publishing problems were resolved by only attempting to publish a single site at a time.
Second, Try disabling any firewall, proxy servers, or network filtering software you may be using. (Apple can't provide specific configuration or setup information for your proxy server or firewall to allow .Mac publishing, as ports, IP addresses, and other information may change over time.)
Next, simplify your Internet connection. For example, if you connect through multiple networking devices, such as hubs and routers, try connecting your computer directly to your modem and test to see if the issue occurs.
And finally, here are some additional notes on publish errors.

IWeb 08 - mobile me only?

It's quite possible I'm being incredibly stupid but I'm trying to publish my website to an ftp account not a mobile me account. Is that possible or do I need iWeb 09?
Cos when I select the site it won't give me the option other than mobile me..

File > Publish to a Folder. Then use a free ftp app like Cyberduck to upload.

When MobileMe goes down the drain, you will need to move your website to standard hosting. Depending on your site size, I recommend A Small Orange, as the Tiny hosting plan they have is big enough for most iWeb sites and much cheaper then shelling out $6 a month for most of the other big names, and if you check out their forum, several of the members have coupon codes in thier signatures. Also, their customer service is great and very fast in getting back to you.
To upload, I publish the iWeb site to a folder, then using Cyberduck upload it to the host. Cyberduck beats iWeb's FTP uploader because Cyberduck only replaces updated pages, instead of uploading the entire site.
I hope this helps!

I am wanting to publish a website created in iweb via a third party web host. How do I put a password for anyone wishing to visit the mysite?

You create the usernames and passwords where you host your website. Made with or without iWeb.
Usually it's done in the controlpanel where you manage your account.
If you cannot do it there, you'll have to do it yourself. See this post :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16014940#16014940
And what is the purpose of password protection for ANYONE who vistis your site?

How do I publish my website with iweb now that mobile me is closed

How do I publish the website i am creating with iweb now that mobile me is closed?

You will need to find a 3rd party web host. I personally use IX Webhosting and have been happy with them for several years now.
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

Want to publish an old iWeb site - struggling!

Hi, hope someone can help me out.
Approx 5 years ago, I created a website for a mate in iWeb and published it using an old .Mac account. I've since changed Macs and while the website design remains, .Mac is now Mobile Me and my mate has lost the log in details. The account is still live as my mate had the Mobile Me annual fee deducted from their account only recently.
To make matters worse, we registered a domain name and pointed it to the .Mac created domain. However, my mate failed to renew the domain and so there's no way of us seeing the website.
Finally, the email address registered to the .Mac address is now also defunct.
We've now bought the same domain name back and want to publish the iWeb site to that domain, but with no Mobile Me details I'm wondering what the solution is. Any thoughts?
Cheers in advance

You will have to recreate the web site from scratch since you don't have the domain file that was used by iWeb to create the site in the first place. Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.
As for the domain name once you have your site created and published you can forward it to the new site. You can obtain an account on a 3rd party web hosting server like HostExcellence.com and publish you site there.
However, if you have a blog or one of the items listed below they will not be supported on a 3rd party server:
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a Non-Mac Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
From iWeb 3's Help
Many 3rd party servers do support php which will allow you to protect pages or the entire site. 3rd party hit counters which offer much more than just the number of visitors can be added. And you can use a 3rd party blogging service to create your blog and embed its page into one of your iWeb pages with an HTML snippet and iframe code.

How to upload and publish a non iweb site to mobile me

How do I upload a website I made from a flash template to my mobile me server, I had a iweb website published there, now I want to use my same domain name and publish the new flash site I created to the mobile me server and disable the iweb site.

Just log into your MobileMe account and go to your iDisk and delete the iWeb site that is there.
You can load your other site there by simply dropping and dragging your files for your new site to the Sites folder on your iDisk. Alternatively, MobileMe uses webdav so you can use Cyberduck to publish too.

Unable to publish iWeb pages to .Mac

I have been using iWeb (version 1.1.2) quite happily for past two weeks and have successfully published to .Mac/Mobile Me. But today I have been having loads of trouble and have been unable to publish anything, although I can publish to a folder, which is of no use.
When I try to publish I get the following types of messages:
Publish error
An error occurred while publishing file "/Web/Sites/iWeb/Site 5/Welcomefiles/navbaractive.png".
or
Publish error
An error occurred while publishing file "navbar_active.png." Try choosing >Publish all
Can anyone suggest a solution. This is driving me mad.

Let's not mince our words: the version of iWeb we are using is ****** and there is no help available anywhere on the Apple website. Check out my various posts on this topic. I am going to save my work to disks and will not renew my iDisk account in a couple of weeks.

TS2167 I am running OS X 10.8.2 and IWeb 3.0.4 (601) and everytime I try to publish my website I get an unexpected error and it does not publish my changes. My website is pretty simple, mostly made up of iPhoto albums in different categories.

Where are you publishing to? Can you publish successfully to a folder on your hard drive? Have you read this webpage: Publish iWeb site using FTP. It may have a clue to where the problem is.
A quick troubleshooting fix is
Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
However, when you delete the preference file you probably will have to use the app described below to select and open your domain file with iWeb:
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

I published a website using iWeb. I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

I published a website using iWeb. I began using iWeb to create a second site and now I can't find my original site's work on my Mac.

If you're publishing directly from iWeb 3 to your FTP server then you'll have the following in your accounts root directory:
Site 1 folder
Site 2 folder
Site 3 folder
index.html file from last published site directling to the last published site.
If you want to keep Site 1 as the primary site you'll need to publish it one more time to the server so you get it's index.html file uploaded.
Now you'll have to publish Sites 2 and 3 to a folder on the hard drive and use a 3rd party FTP client like Cyberduck, YummyLite or Transmit to upload only the site folder (and not its external index.html file with it).
The url to sites 2 and 3 will be:
http://doman_name.com/Site 2
http://doman_name.com/Site 3

How do you publish a website without mobile me working anymore?

How do you publish a website using iweb 09 with a moved mobile me account , when using icloud. I can't use mobile me.

Here's what you need to do:
1 - purchase a domain name (you'll need one in order to publish your website to a commercial hosting service.
2 - obtain a hosting service to publish your site to.
3 - obtain the ftp address, username and password from Customer Support of your new hosting service.
4 - set iWeb to publish to an ftp server and enter the necessary information you received from Customer Support.
An alternative to #4 would be to publish your website to a folder on your hard drive and use a 3rd party ftp client like Cyberduck (free) or Transmit to upload the website file to the server.
