Uploading iWeb site to godaddy host

Greetings,
I am trying to publish one of my iWeb generate sites to a godaddy account. When I publish to a folder it publishes all of my sites to the folder - I am just interested in this one site. So I move that site folder out of the published folder and attempt to upload it and haven't had any success.
Also, I have tried several FTP clients, fetch, filezilla, fireftp and the go daddy on line ftp client(limited to 4 mg which is okay right now).
I can't upload anything and can't figure out where my problem is - these clients seem fairly straight forward.
Thanks

Thanks for the responses. I think my problem is related to the cable modem. I had some problems with my vonage VOIP and the vonage tech person said there was an issue with that particular modem. Comcast says there are no problems on their end but I am suspicious. Anyway, I don't seem to have any other issues. I e-mailed my published files to my home computer also with comcast and was able to upload the files through fireftp first try. I then had to take/move the pages out of the folder using fireftp and place them in the general part of the HTML godaddy folder - up and running.
How do I do or track down these issues with my cable modem at my office(btw 1 computer and two voip lines). I've tried running the ethernet directly to the computer bypassing the voip stuff with no joy.
Thanks for the help

Multiple Sites w/ GoDaddy Host

I created a website with iWeb, bought a domain name and hosting space from GoDaddy, published the site to a folder and uploaded it to GoDaddy with Fetch. Everything worked fine. I created another user account on my computer as a way to create another website with iWeb and keep it separate from the first one (a suggestion I got on these boards, by the way), created my site, bought another domain name from GoDaddy for that site, and now I want to upload it to my GoDaddy hosting space (the hosting account I got allows you to upload many sites to it if you want to). My concern is that when you upload the site that iWeb created from the published folder, you upload the index.html file and the folder iWeb created with the files for your site. iWeb always creates an index.html file for each web site. So there is already a file in my hosting space called index.html. When I upload the second site, is that going to somehow confuse or mess up the first one?

When you go to godaddy.com and click on the link that tells you about their various hosting plans, they have a comparison of plan features. They have Economy, Deluxe, & Premium. The last two allow Unlimited Sites and describe this as "Multiple Websites may be hosted within a single hosting account sharing the same disk space and bandwidth quotas."
I have one site up there under a domain name, so there is an index.html file and a folder with all the other files for that site. I bought another domain name for my second site, but I'm not sure yet how they will be differentiated when they are sharing the same disk space. My concern is that when I upload the second site, it too will have an index.html file that needs to go up, and will that overwrite the first one already up there and mess up that first site?
This is my first time using a program like iWeb to make a site. In the past (and that was a long time ago) I wrote my own html from scratch, and had control over what I named that first page that pointed to all the others.

Retrieve iweb site from godaddy

I had to do a clean install on my mac pro - so could not alter my iweb site which is hosted on godaddy, using fetch I retrieved the all web site files in one folder, but cannot seem to get iweb to run them.
Is there a special place that I should put them?
Thanks
Mike

iWeb won't 'run' those pages because iWeb has no import facility so is unable to open html files and a published site, which is effectively what you have downloaded from GoDaddy.
Did you not backup your hard drive before you did a clean install? Did you not back up your domain.sites file to be precise? This is where iWeb stores all its data and is the file that you need to be able to make any alterations to your site. It is located under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. Make sure it is your User Library that you look under and not your System Library, as you will not find iWeb there.
If you can't find this file then you are looking at re-building your site from scratch in iWeb.
This is a hard lesson to learn about backing up your domain.sites file, but if you have done this once you won't make the same mistake again.

Hosting my iweb site on GoDaddy, but not everything works

I uploaded my site (built in iWeb) to GoDaddy. When I view my site via .mac, everything looks and works as it is supposed to. When I went to my website after hosting it on GoDaddy, everything looked good and worked except for 3 minor things. Here are the 3 troubles I had. Any help on how to fix them is appreciated.
1) One of my pages when clicked on says "page not found". It shows up though when I view it via .mac.
2) I have three posts on my blog page, but only 2 of them show when clicked. The other one tells me "page can't be found"
3) The search field I have on my blog page does not show up. It does who up when I view my website via .mac.

I fixed the "page not found" problem. I ended up just making a new page from scratch.
Now my only unsolved issue is the search field doesn't show up. Maybe it is only available on .Mac?!
I also noticed on my blog that the comments doesn't show either. I did set it up to allow comments. When viewed via .Mac, the comments area is there. When I view my site after publishing to GoDaddy, it doesn't show that comments are allowed. I only noticed this because a friend who visited my site told me to put a comments section on my blog and I said that I did have one. It ain't showing up, though. Anyone know if there is a fix for this?

Problem Uploading with CyberDuck to GoDaddy host site

I created an iWeb site that looks and functions fine on my computer (10.5.8). I successfully uploaded it with Cyberduck (3.2.1) to be hosted by GoDaddy on a domain I own. At that point, everything was lovely. Then, I revised the site in iWeb on my computer. When I uploaded it to GoDaddy with Cyberduck (overwriting the previous version of the site), most of the online pages had lost some formatting and many of the links no longer worked properly. At that point, the revised iWeb site on my computer still looked and functioned fine. GoDaddy help did some troubleshooting and concluded that the problem is with iWeb or Cyberduck.
I'm stuck. Any ideas?

Tom,
Please click on "The Concept" button to notice margins and spacing on that page. On most pages, the "Order" and "Contact" buttons in the box at the bottom of the page don't work. The titles in the "Archives" section don't link to the articles as they did in the iWeb version on my computer. What can I do to avoid these errors in future uploads?
Also, is there something I can do differently to make the brief "Welcome" QuickTime video (on the home page) work on IE?
I expect to add/change the site every couple of weeks. Is there a way to upload just the changes and not overwrite the whole site?
I value your help very much. Thank you for taking the time.

Upload iWeb website to GoDaddy FTP hosting server

I purchased a domain (huaichuanrui.co.uk) and web hosting from GoDaddy. I created a website in iWeb '09 (version 3) and clicked on the site name in the left hand sidebar. I filled in all the FTP server information - in the server address box, I've tried ftp.huaichuanrui.co.uk, huaichuanrui.co.uk, http://huaichuanrui.co.uk, the IP address, ftp://huaichuanrui.co.uk, everything. I've typed the username and password for my hosting account correctly. I left the Directory/Path field empty like most people recommend, but I've also tried it with the folder location on my Mac (/Huaichuan_Rui), /Huaichuan_Rui/, all sorts. I left Protocol as FTP and Port as 21. Still, no luck. Testing keeps failing.
I've also tried uploading the site folder to the GoDaddy hosting control panel thing where it says "Upload Files". It all uploaded, but still nothing. The homepage preview is shown as "pageok". Now when I visit my site, it says "Coming Soon - Future home of something quite cool".
No luck at all in publishing my iWeb website to GoDaddy's FTP hosting server.
Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this issue? Thank you.

Re-Publishing an iWeb site with GoDaddy

I am having a very frustrating issue when a attempt to re-upload my already made iWeb site onto a domain that I am paying for through GoDaddy. I started the site two years ago with a two year plan for hosting on GoDaddy. Everything was fine for those 2 years. Then, just recently those 2 years ran up and the web page went blank. So I payed more through GoDaddy to extend my hosting plan for 3 more years. Through doing this, GoDaddy gave me a new web hosting username and password that they told me to put in iWeb when i launch the site. So I went back to iWeb and when I click the "Publish Site" button, a notification drops down and says that the site cannot be published because the username or password are incorrect. However, it displays the OLD username and there is NOWHERE to change it to the new one that GoDaddy has given me. I have been through every menu I could find in iWeb (I am using the iLife '11 version) and cannot find anywhere to change this username and password. This is extremely frustrating because I am paying for the hosting time even when the site is not running. Please Help!!! THANKS!

@Shawn2375 - This may assist you with uploading the site: http://x.co/mXkk Also in hat article it links you to the FTP article to help reset the password if need be. Support is also open 24/7 to assist you as well. Thanks for posting! ^Colby Go Daddy Social Media Team

Uploading iweb site to path within a directory

I need to upload my website to a certain path within a larger directory. My iweb site is not the main site. The main site though uses php and well iweb doesn't. Is it still possible to upload my iweb site to a path in this directory and it function correctly? If so, how would I go about doing this?

Okay, so firstly, you CAN't have an iWeb account - iWeb is an application that is on your Mac and you can use it whatever if it is there - there is no account that is needed.
You will not now be able to get a MobileMe account if you don't already have one, as they are not taking any more subscriptions as it will not be here from June next year, iCloud having replaced it.
You say that you have a "url" or do you mean domain name from GoDaddy? If you do, then to be able to upload a website you also need to purchase a hosting account from them.
Not having a hosting account would be one very good reason why you would be getting the error messages' cannot connect to server' - this is because you have no server/host to connect to because you don't have a hosting account.
Go to GoDaddy and purcahse a hosting account from them and you will then be able to upload your site.

Uploading iWeb site to internet.

Error message "cannot connect to server" when I try uploading my iWeb site to the internet (godaddy.com url). I saved the html file to my local hard drive (on the desktop) and tried uploading through FTP on iWeb, FileZilla, and GoDaddy's. Similar error messages on all three. Solutions? Fixes? Better ways to make and get my website up?! Also, not sure if it makes a difference but I don't have an iWeb account or a MobileMe account. I just happen to have the software on my MacBook Pro so I thought it'd be an easy way to make my first website.
Thank you!

Problem uploading iWeb site to Hostgator

I just created a site with iWeb, and got a host account with HostGator. My domain name came from NameCheap.com, so I changed the DNS as instructed. I then tried to publish my site. I entered the IP address that HostGator provided to me in iWeb's Server Settings box titled "Server address," then entered my username and password. I clicked Test Connection, but I keep getting a message telling me that I am offline. I am definitely online, and I tested the IP address with Cyberduck successfully, so it's a problem with iWeb. Does it work to enter the IP address in "Server Address," or am I supposed to wait until the DNS change takes effect and enter a different server address?

Publish your site to a folder on your HD and use Cyberduck to upload the contents of that folder, the site folder and an index.html file, to your host server. Cyberduck is reported to be much more reliable that the built in ftp client of iWeb.
Happy New Year

Upload iweb site?

anyways i need to know how to turn my iweb website into a legit .com It need to be professional like anew.com i cant have those long addresses that i get when i use mobil me to host my website where its [email protected] can someone show me where i can go or how i can upload my iweb site and have it be simple.com style i dont mind paying for the service. please help i needed this site up last week.
thanks

To be able to have a web mail address like [email protected] you need to upload your files to a commercial hosting account rather than MobileMe.
You can upload the files using the iWeb FTP or, better still, an FTP application since you will want to publish your site to a local folder first to add tags for SEO.

Once your files are uploaded, you can forward the domain name using Cname by going into your domain registrar account or, more conveniently in the long run, switch the domain name registration to your hosting company.
Web mail is set up in your hosting account control panel and it can be any name you like @yourwebsite.com and forwarded to any number of email addresses.

How do I upload iWeb-site without using 'Flie Publish' feature?

Due to corporate firewall restrictions I cannot use iDisk, Sync or iWeb to connect to .mac, which presented a problem when I wanted to Publish my iWeb site.
I have uploaded the site [via webdav, with Transmit] to the Sites folder of my iDisk, but I can't find my site when I enter my .mac URL into my browser (http://web.mac.com/myusername or http://homepage.mac.com/myusername).
Theoretically, is this the right way to upload to iDisk without using iWeb? Is there anything else I need to do to link my URL to the files in iDisk/Sites?
Thanks in advance, Lee.

Ok, my member name is leepaulvickers.
I've tried
http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers
http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers/iweb
http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers/leepaulvickers
http://homepage.mac.com/leepaulvickers
but just get the 'we can't find the HomePage you've requested' 404 error.
BTW I've used Transmit to upload to my iDisk in the past, such as files and photos with no problems. I assumed there would be no trouble with iWeb's files...

Problems uploading iWeb site, keychain issue

Hi
I updated my iWeb site yesterday and uploaded, everything fine.
I have done some amends this morning and then tried to upload. I get kicked backs with an offer to learn about MobileMe, which I already have. So I click the sign in button and it tells me I have a Keychain error which prevents access.
All looks fine in Keychain.
I have gone to system prefs and tried to access my MobileMe account. I am denied access.
I have tried deleting the plists from my library, no effect.
Anyone got any thoughts?
Thanks
Jon

Jon ~ Try this: Quit iWeb. Then  menu > System Preferences... > MobileMe icon > Account tab > click on Sign Out... Then enter a garbage name and password and try to sign in. This apparently clears the MobileMe preferences. Then enter your real username and password. Once signed in, quit System Preferences, open iWeb and see if you can publish.
If that doesn't help and no-one else chips in here with a suggestion, MobileMe live chat support is now 24/7 — see this announcement.

Uploading iweb site using filezilla

I am using filezilla right now to upload my site I have created on iweb. Everything is working fine other than the fact that it seems that everytime I make a simple change to a page or something I then have to go and upload the whole site all over again which can be very time consuming. So I was wondering if any of you had any tips or ideas on how to get around this. Thanks for your help!

i am struggling to even upload using i web / filezilla - i am a novice!!
To get help, you need to explain what your problem is in more detail. In the meantime try Cyberduck and see if these instructions help:
