Hi I have serveral web sites that I edit and publish with Front Page 2003. I
do this from both my lap tops and a desk top pc. Now I can access and work
on them from the laptop but when I try to use the desk top I get one of two
errors depending on the remote site I'm trying to open. I get "You do not
have premission to access this web folder" for some sites and for others I
get " You do not have permission to make changes to this document. Do you
want to open a read only copy?" I can open them all up and work on them with
my lap tops just not the desk top pc. They all have XP professional and the
same verison of FP 2003.

Thanks
 
Check your desktop firewall permissions or anti-virus to see if it is blocking FP

I checked both and they are allowing FP permission. I even uninstalled and
reinstalled FP same problem on the one Desktop pc?
 
Problem Solved! It ended up being a Internet Explorer Security issue. I had
to open internet options-security-local intranet-sites-advanced and add the
sites to the zone that I wanted to edit with front page. As soon as I did
that Front page found the web site and allowed me to enter my user name and
password and opened just fine.

Keith, I saw your problem and have a similar one you may know how to fix...if
I could please bug you for a few minutes...
The error message I get is: "The server sent a response which FrontPage
could not parse. If you are trying to connect to a Windows SharePoint
Services server, check with the server's administrator to make sure Windows
SharePoint Services is installed properly."
I can't figure out why it's saying that all of a sudden. It could be a
firewall issue I suppose. I tried to do a few things, but am a novice. How
did you check your firewall permissions? Not sure how to do that. Sorry for
all the questions...

Thanks, Susan

You should start your own thread for continuity sake.
You need to study the documentation of the particular firewall you are using
to allow a FP exception.

If the error is "The server sent a response which FrontPage
could not parse. If you are trying to connect to a Windows SharePoint
Services server, check with the server's administrator to make sure Windows
SharePoint Services is installed properly."
then it is unlikely you have firewall problems.

The error is often associated with the website being too big for the server
hardware and/or network connection (which includes the Internet connection).
While there is no limit to the number of files., or total size of website,
that *FrontPage* can manage, some systems do have limits, especially web
servers that impose time limitations on processing web requests. This will
include the "Recalculate Hyperlinks" command (seen as "Processing Web
Updates" after copying files during a publish operation) on the server that
automatically follows every publish. A web of the size you have may be too
big for the server.

It would be a good idea to break the web into subwebs, where each subweb can
be published individually, and thus considerably reduce the processing load
on the server.

Note that since a subweb is an independent web, you will have to create and
apply navigation, themes, include files, shared borders, or DWTs for each
subweb.
