FP2K Publishing Error Message

Hi,

I've been using FP2K for a while now and have been really happy with it. So
far I have always used Cute FTP to upload the site but now I have completely
redesigned the site and included a couple of forms I understand that I need
to use the 'Publish' option within FP2K.

Using Cute FTP I have deleted the old site from the server (which DOES have
the extensions installed) and then tried to publish the site from FP.
Here's what happens:

Open FP2K.
Open relevant web.
Select File then Publish.
Type in the website address (which is http://www.churchgateauctions.co.uk)
the select publish.
A small window will open which says 'connecting to server
http://www.churchgateauctions.co.uk.
Then another smaller window opens immediately which says: server error:
cannot open "frontpg.lck": no such file or folder.

This is as far as I get. Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Regards,

Sonars_UK

When you cleaned out your root web, you apparently cleaned
out too much. You probably need to ask your host to remove
and reinstall the FrontPage Server Extensions.
