What is the status of this post.
My server is still broke


Hi,

I am not sure which forum to post this to, thus it is crossposted.
That way redundant help is not received and others are not taxed timewise
over something already being resolved.
Thank you in advance.

Until the Windows server 2003 sp1 update was applied - all of our sites
worked fine.

Currently we receive errors when we try to publish the webs to the server.
[An error occurred accessing your Windows SharePoint Services site files.
Authors - if authoring
against a Web server, please contact the Webmaster for this server's Web
site. WebMasters - please
see the server's application event log for more details.]

The websites are located on a small webserver.
It is a windows 2003 server, IIS6.0 with FPSE 2002.
SharePoint is not used.

FP2003 is used on a local computer to work on some of the client sites.
The edited content is then published to the above webserver with minimal to
no issues - (until the update on Thursday evening).

We have worked the full weekend trying to resolve this - following advice
from uninstalling IIS,
FPSE, Asp.net and reinstalling it - to changing permissions on sites.

We can no longer publish from local computer to remote [meaning the server]
and can not publish from the
server to local machine.

If you can help - I would deeply appreciate it. I rely on the one website
for my local clients and
the webserver for some other clients.

Hi Michael,

Actually KBA 896861 was one of the initial 'fixes' we had tried - prior to
uninstalling win 2k3 sp1.
It was not successful.

The only successful solution was to uninstall sp1.

After that - yes, we did have to conduct clean up relative to the other
'fixes' employed prior to the uninstallation of sp1.

Those who uninstalled sp1 directly (post installation outcries from users)
encountered minimal residual issues.

It was only those of us that tried to find an alternative to fully
uninstalling sp1 (as we realize the upgrade patches more than one item and
we do not want our server vulnerable) that experienced residual issues that
had to be remedied via more drastic means post sp1 uninstallation.

In our case - we are leaving sp1 off the machine.

The only reason for this post is to clarify that what you are posing is not
a solution for many of us - much as the comment on the part of Jim Cheshire
above is not a solution.

Thank you for your ongoing posts.

Dana,

I know that Windows 2003 SP1 servers can host multiple virtual domains
with FPSE on them owned by happy customers. I am sure that uninstalling
SP1 is not the only answer, but in your situation I trust that it was
the best answer and am glad things are finally back to normal for you.

I suspect that you made some other changes, removing the new accounts
perhaps, and went past a point of no return. Uninstalling SP1 may have
been your only choice then, but before you made those other changes, I
bet you could have dealt with the authentication issue(s) and saved
yourself days of "rectifying". I wish I could have been more help.

For others reading this: Make sure the new MSSharePointApp Pool is run
as "Local Service", make sure that the roles.ini files ACL includes
System full control and that the security is not inherited. And remove
the loopback adapter being checked per
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;896861

Sorry you had so much trouble and that I wasn't more help,

Mike

Thomas,

In another post in another thread, it was pointed out that the problem is
related to opening the web site using a link in the recent site menu or
having frontpage opened the previously opened site. It seems not to manifest
itself when doing open site menu and selecting the site from the network
places.

A number of users have indicated that they are having problem with Windows 2003 SP1 and FrontPage
(all versions), the best suggestion I think at this point is to uninstall SP1.

I had to do the same because I was not able to save any edited files within a web without receiving
error message about permissions, however I had no problem accessing any of the webs on the server
from within FP.
