Publishing Site To The Web

[steve]

I have designed a site using Publisher 2003 I have managed to publish some
pages onto the web but when I publish updates it comes up with an error
message

UNABLE TO PUBLISH TO THE WEB CHECK URL

I have more than ample space any ideas why it won't load?

Any help would be appreciated for this newbie

Thanks

I have got the same problem:
"Publisher could not save the file to the Web, Check your URL or Network
connection and try again"
It's only happened in the last couple of days, I've published my website
quite a few times before and updated it and I didn't (not that I'm aware of
anyway) do anything different this time?

There are some standard trouble shooting steps in publishing snafu's...

- check firewall settings, privileges
- if behind a network, verify with network admin that you have ftp
privileges
- reboot your machine (you may have a hung connection)
- verify you have the correct FTP url from the host
- verify the procedure -

- see if you can connect to the server using an ftp client (i.e. wsftp le)
to determine if this is specific to Publisher
- if possible try in http
- delete the ftp location and create a new one
- if http then delete the network place and create a new one
- log in host control panel and verify file and directory permissions are
read/write
- is the issue before or after the login is prompted and/or accepted. when
after a successful login the likely increases that the issue is on the host
side and not on your end
- verify that you have no page in the web publication that has "hanging"
objects, an object that straddles the document area and the scratch area.
