Can't publish to Inetpub\wwwroot

J

Jim Shaw

When I try to publish my one-page web site to Inetpub\wwwroot (where IIS
says I'm supposed to Publish) I get an error message saying that the file
name is bad, the name contains a \, or the file is protected. I'm confused
about this and just what it is that I'm trying to achieve with my file
structure under Inetpub. I'm not sure what goes where. I'm planning to
eventually have two or more (sub?)-websites published on the same server
(one for personal use and anothers for business professional use).

I'm running Win2003 Server, with IIS, SQL Server, and all the Front Page
servers and extentions, plus doing Front Page development on the same
machine. I think that makes this a "disk" web site.

What is the best practice for publishing my sites?

Thanks
Jim

Hi Rob.....I just had a very long post regarding this and I was unable to
publish using http://inetpub/wwwroot nor was I able to publish to
http://localhost/mywebname. I have no idea if the way I accomplished this is
right or not but the following is the procedure I used:
Once I had installed the download from Microsoft I was able to open the
Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Internet Informations Services. This
opened a page with the server on it and in the folder tree there is "default
web site". I right clicked on that and it opens a window with quite a few
choices, one of which is "new>virtual directory. This brings up a Wizard
which asks for an Alias Name and it also asks you to browse to the location
of the Front Page Web that has the content. Once you do all of that, it
creates a "subweb" on the IIS server.

To update any changes on that newly created sub-web, I open the web in Front
Page, make the changes and click on save. I do not do any publishing at all,
just save it. Then when I open my browser and enter
http://localhost/mywebname, it reflects the changes.

I am still confused on this issue. Lets suppose I were to creat a new one
page web in Front Page. How would I "publish" that web to the IIS Server? I
have tried doing this but it will not publish to http://localhost

You should open the site directly in FP at http://localhost before you start creating your web
content, then you don't have to publish to it.

You can create individual sites under localhost by creating a folder, then right click and select
convert to site.

The folder "http://Website" isn't accessible. The folder may be located on
an unavailable volume or protected with a password.

Hi Tom, either you or someone else ran all this by me before and I continute
to get error messages no matter what I do. I installed the Jimco add in and
got an error message during the install: Error 1911 could not open register
type library for file C:\Program Files\Open Web\Web.dll. contact your
support personnel.

I tried running the Jimco add in anyway and got another error message:
Could not find a Web Server at 'localhost'. Please make sure the Web Server
Name is Valid and proxy settings are correct.

I can type http://localhost/myweb into the url and it opens the site but I
dont think there is any way I am going to get there thru Front Page

Stefan B Rusynko

If the FP SE are applied correctly in IIS once you browse in IE to http://localhost/myweb or http://localhost/ you should be able to
use File Edit w/ FP to open it in FP

Hi Stefan, according to your reply, I am assuming that the FP SE are not
applied correctly at the moment. I would appreciate very much if you would
tell me the correct way to apply them. Thanks

Hi Stefan....I did every bit of this step by step but it still will not work
for me. I found a fairly simple tutorial on how to do this.
http://www.webthang.co.uk/tuts/tuts_server/iis_xppro/iis_xppro.asp
The problem is, following that tutorial wont work either. When I get to the
part where it says to click on Start>Run http://localhost, I get the same
error message as I have in the past that it can't find 'localhost' .
Something is blocking me from going there I guess but I dont have a clue as
to what it is.

Have you tried uninstalling FP and IIS, and then re-installing IIS and the FP2000 extensions?

Hi Stefan....I did every bit of this step by step but it still will not work
for me. I found a fairly simple tutorial on how to do this.
http://www.webthang.co.uk/tuts/tuts_server/iis_xppro/iis_xppro.asp
The problem is, following that tutorial wont work either. When I get to the
part where it says to click on Start>Run http://localhost, I get the same
error message as I have in the past that it can't find 'localhost' .
Something is blocking me from going there I guess but I dont have a clue as
