Discussion group mystery #2

I

Isidore

My discussion group has suddenly stopped showing its index. I checked
with my server (Mindspring) and they could find no problem.

The discussion group is set up in frames and has worked for years.
Now, instead of an index in the upper frame, I see

CONTENTS
CONTENTS
[_bedstuy/_bedstuy/tocproto.htm]

Tech support at Mindspring points out that there is no path
[_bedstuy/_bedstuy/tocproto.htm] . This is true. The subweb for this
discussion group is called bedstuy (without the underscore) and the
folder that contains the file tocproto.htm is called _bedstuy.

I have done nothing to this page in years, so there's nothing I can
point to that might have precipitated this problem. Does the fact
that the word CONTENTS appears twice point to anything?

BTW, when I look at this page in FrontPage 2002, the index appears in
both the Normal and the Preview views.

Mindspring says this is a Microsoft problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Isidore

Try opening the online subweb in FP to repair it
- believe w/ mindspring you may have to open the root, and from there open the subweb
File Open Web/Site and enter the URL as http://www.yousite.com/ and log in
Then run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks and View Reports Problems Broken links or Component errors to track down the error

PS
DW have been known to become corrupt is they get too large
- time to archive the old one and create a new one as a new subweb
