server error FP can't parse

I know this has been answered before but of course that was before I'd
ever seen the error message. I get something like "FP received a
response from the server that FP cannot parse" (words to that effect).

This happens after an otherwise successful publish -- at that point it
just seems to hang until I click "cancel".

What does this mean and how do I correct it?

TIA,
 
It is a generic error indicating the FP SE had a problem reconciling the online meta data or just timed out due to a server side
error
Check your hosts server logs for more details
- also look for info in the local FP logs (wecerr.txt &/or FRONTPG.log) in your default windows Temp folder

You may want to clear all FP temp files and stores web cache files before you publish again

More info:

The FP log file says this:

I'm not using Sharepoint. It's not installed.
 
The exact error message 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 am NOT using Sharepoint and it isn't installed on the server.
 
This could be firewall related issues. Check your firewall settings on your
local pc and the host server. Also visit:

FP dialogs, etc. refer to the Extensions as Share Point, as well.

Thanks, Tom and Thomas.

I don't think it's a firewall issue because I haven't changed anything
in months there and this just emerged a couple of days ago. However,
I'll check the links suggested...
