Contact your web host. They may need to reinstall the FrontPage Extensions

When I try to publish the site, i get this message:
"Server Error: Cannot create folder "_vti_cnf"

Publish the whole web site (uncheck changed pages only) and see what
happens.

|I published the entire folder containing the pages with forms, though
not
the
| entire website. The user is now back to this error message:
|
| "FrontPage Error.
| User: please report details to this site's webmaster.
| Webmaster: please see the server's application event log for more
details."
|
| Any more ideas? Thanks for your help.
