I have run into a problem wherein FrontPage 2000 now
refuses to import most file types except very small files.
It never has this problem previously.
I recently installed Windows 2000 Service Pack 4. I edit
the site locally and upload to the host server running
FrontPage server extensions.
I did a work-around by moving the files (these are .Zip
and .Exe installer files offered for download on the site
I'm working on) into the relevant folder of the local web
site using Windows Explorer. I then recalculated the
hyperlnks in FrontPage, established the links therein, and
uploded the finsished pages with the download files.
The problem now is that if I delete such files (that were
manually moved into FrontPage using Windows Explorer
originally) using delete within FrontPage, the files don't
seem to be marked for deletion on the server when I next
publish the web. In fact, the unwanted files no longer
present in the locally edited web are staying on the
server! I can't seem to delete them by logging into the
online site via FTP, either.
I am wondering whether the import-into-FrontPage 2000
problem, and possibly the web update problems as described
herein, might be related to Win2K SP4. Or could these
issues be related to the very recent security MS patch
dealing with the possibility of a hacker gaining complete
control of a computer?
Thoughts and suggestions are welcome.
