On-going publishing problem

[Pat N.]

I've been having multiple difficulties getting my web
site to re-publish after making some changes to a couple
pages. I could log in OK, and it would begin to transfer
files and then get hung up and stop after only a few.
I've taken all of the suggestions offered here (thanks to
everyone who responded) and nothing worked . . . my host
kept insisting that the problem was NOT with the server
because they could publish to my site just fine. As a
last resort I opened a free account at Tripod.com,
enabled FP extensions and tried to publish there (the
same FP web only with fewer pages) . . . bingo, it
worked! My question, then, before I find another host
is -- could this possibly be anything OTHER than a server
problem? Thanks again.

What does your logic tell you?
I'd say it's time to find a new host.

It could be the Internet path between your ISP and your host, where it is not between your ISP and
Tripod. Ask you host are they trying to publish from inside or outside of their network? If inside,
they need do it from outside.

Tell your host to increase the "server time out" settings for your web account.

Personally, I don't see why Pat should have to tell the host anything at this point. The host should have at least an idea of what's going on and should have been able to solve the problem days ago. If they don't understand FP webs well enough to support it - they shouldn't be selling it. JMO.
