free busy not published

[Henri]

Hi,

I've been using Free Busy on my previous computer but I am not able to use
it on my new computer.

I am running Office 2002 with windows XP pro. I have noticed that the
password was not kept in outlook's ftp function (used in previous intalation)
so I entered it in the free busy field in the form of
ftp://User[email protected]/Users folder/Freebusy/My name.vfb

I have imported all my Outlook emails from my previous computer.

I have searched the web thoroughly and have done the "C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OUTLOOK.EXE" /cleanfreebusy with no results.

I have checked the URL thousand of times copy/paste in a browser works great
with edit capabilities.

Life could be much worse but my productivity has gone down dramatically!
Your help is very much appreciated .

Cheers

Henri

Were you using Outlook 2002 on the old computer? free/busy is a PITA to get
working on 2002.

Is the vfb file getting saved to the new location?

zones!

Thanks for your amazingly quick answer Diane.

Yes I was using Outlook 2002 and no, :-( the vfb file is not curently
created on my server...

I'm not sure I understand the meaning of PITA but I guess it's something
like "Pain in the A..."? Does that mean you are recomending an upgrade?

Thanks again

Henri

Yes that's what PITA means and no, upgrading won't help. OL2003 is just as
difficult.

I have some information here, but I suspect you know most of it
http://www.slipstick.com/calendar/freebusy.htm

I know when I tested it (and created the page), that I had a difficult time
getting 2002 (SP3) and 2003 to save the vfb. 2000 did it without problems...
it was sweet.

I opened a ticket with Microsoft... We'll see where that goes.

I don't need an upgrade, I guess I am going to have to downgrade to Outlook
2000!

Life is good!

Microsoft sent me again on the page
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=291621

Even thought it does not give any garantee, I installed the feature called
Web Publishing Wizard 1.6
linked :
http://download.microsoft.com/msdownload/webpubwiz/1.52/x86/en/wpie415-x86.exe
I then rebooted my computer and it works!

Hope it helps others with the same problem. Special thanks to Diane.

I have outlook 2000, and dont get it work.

Any ideas?

I have tried everything.

Describe "everything". Obviously you haven't done "everything", so stating
what you have done and what error messages you get (exact text) will help
someone else come up with a solution for your problem. Be sure to include
whether your Outlook is in C/W mode or IMO mode. Help>About will tell you.
