So, what did the server host say when you contacted them per the error
instructions?

this i only can do monday.
The office of the serverhost is not open on sundays.

I don't understand why i should contact the serverhost, what they have to do
with it? I should just work no?

filled in the database wizard as i'm told.........everybody is asking me
what did the serverhost say....

There may be a reason for that....
The host has access to lots of error reports which may have a bearing
on the problem. It would be a waste of time speculating on what may
have happened, when there is a way to find out.
Just because you followed the instructions correctly does not mean
that the host has set the server up correctly - only the host can tell
you that.

Is this on your PC or on your live site? What version of FrontPage?

Created databased website, including a submitform, db-editor and
resultspage.
Error after sending submitform: job failed, contact serverhost when
problem keeps occurring.
Contacted serverhost, problem is that Frontpage 2003 makes the database in
the obligated map ''fpdb'', but the serverhost obligates me to put my
database in the map ''_private'' which is on the website to enable writing
to the
database.
When uploading the database is not writable when located in ''fpdb''
because the serverhost doesn't give permission
But when i configurate the global.asa and webconfig to "_private" and i do a
problem report in Frontpage the global.asa file comes out with the statement
that it's obligated to use "fpdb" as the map for the database.
i use Frontpage 2003, what can i do to solve this problem?
