FrontPage could not Parse

G

Gary S.

When trying to publish just one of my websites (it seems to work for others),
I get the error message about the server sending back an error message that
frontpage could not parse, and to check with your internet service provider
to see if the FP extensions were/are installed properly. I checked wth my ISP
and nothing has changed or is apparently wrong there. I should also say at
this point that I have two computers, the old one will work fine when
publishing this website, the new one gives the above error message, so it
appears that the destination server is OK. I checked all my firewall settings
as explained on the MS database article on this, but no matter what I do, it
still gives the same error message. I diabled the windows firewall and have
Norton Internet Security 2006 installed. When I first started using the new
computer- all worked fine, now this problem. Can anyone help me, my ISP and
computer shop are both stumped on this one. Thank You in advance.

Did it work okay until Norton Internet Security was installed? I have seen
many reports of NIS being the culprit, and that disabling doesn't work. It
has to be completely uninstalled.

Tom,

Although I do have Norton Internet Security 2006 loaded on this computer, I
can load other websites to other servers, just not this one. I can upload the
problem website from my old computer which is running Windows 98 2nd Edition.
My new computer which I am transferring to uses XP home. I've had Norton
installed on my old computer in the past and didn't have any problems. I have
just found though, that if I shut off the NIS completely from the taskbar, I
can upload, so there must be something within the NIS that is the problem,
but why with just this one website and not the others that I upload using the
same computer? Maybe this is a question that Mr. Norton should be asked?

Gary:

All I can tell you is based upon what I've seen in numerous other
newsgroups, NIS is very quirky, and causes many, many issues, including
those you are having. Not necessarily on a consistent basis. Go figure ;-)

PC,
Thanks for the response, sorry it took so long to get back to you. I haven't
tried that until it finally goes through, but what I found the last time it
done it, I just disabled my Norton and it published fine. There seems to be a
problem with the Norton suites (newer ones) that causes this to happen,
sometimes everything works fine, the next, don't matter, it just won't work.
I can publish one web to one server, but it won't publish to another without
disabling the securtiy suite- not something that should be done. Between
front page extensions and some security suites, things can really get to be a
pain at times.

Me too, just after an IE7 update. A program that's worked immaculately for
years suddenly 'can't parse.' I've read fixes involving the iis, getting into
the computer properties and enabling 'keep-alives'...which I did, by several
back doors [XP Pro doesn't do this easily]...and we are definitively enabled.
It still won't parse. Outside of killing every firewall---I already have
Norton disabled---does anybody have a fix?
