custmblt - 07 Feb 2008 18:58 GMT I have been using publisher 2003 for my website without any trouble. I then changed to publisher 2007 with a vista o/s and it work great. Last week I had to image my drive and reinstall publisher. Every time I go to publish now I just get error messages and cant even get to my login screen. So I got fedup and put 03 back on and hey works great!! I would like to use o7, maybe I am not putting the information correctly?? I went to the self hep online and that was know help so here I am.
TB - 07 Feb 2008 20:18 GMT What's the error message?

The error message says check my ulr....hmm I am using the same address via http in 2003 and it works.

TB - 07 Feb 2008 21:56 GMT In order to load using http, Front Page Server Extension (FPSE) must be available with the server and enabled. I had the same problem and found out through the server that the FPSE username was different. Once I got that, I was finally able to upload. Also, when using http with 2007, it will not automatically replace index.htm if it's already in place. You have to move it or delete it. What's the URL?

I cant even get the login screen to show up , that what makes me think I am doing something wrong.

Rob Giordano (Crash) - 08 Feb 2008 03:53 GMT When you publish via FTP you break the FPSE and have to reinstall or have them repaird to publish via http:// method.

I put publisher 07 on 2 computers running xp and using the same pub file I was able to publish via http. I then tried the same thing on two seprate computers using the same pub file on vista 32bit O/S and they all failed to publish via http.
I truely am not happy with publisher 07 and may need to go back to 03 for obvious reasons.
Your thoughts are welcome.

DavidF - 08 Feb 2008 13:22 GMT Unless I am reading your facts wrong, the problem is not Pub 2007 or 2003, it is Vista...and IE7 which comes with Vista. Is that correct? This would be consistent with a pattern that seems to be developing.
Here is part of a post from Ted 2/2/08: "I have been working with Microsoft Publisher Support about this problem and they gave me a download (see article KB907306) that solves part of the problem. With this download I can "Add a Network Location' from "Computer" and then after clicking on the icon and entering my logon information , I can drag and drop my files onto the web site. I can not, however, publish my web site directly from Publisher. They supposedly are working on this part of the problem. I'll let you know when I get further information from them. Here is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=17C36612-632E-4C04-9382 -987622ED1D64&displaylang=en "
It appears to me that at this point there is a problem with HTTP uploading protocol with Pub 2003 and 2007 when the operating system is Vista. FTP uploading still works in both, but Vista requires a variation.
So, my question is the problem you are having uploading unique to Vista? Can you upload with 2003 and 2007 on XP?

Just for clairafacation, Publisher 2003 & 2007 work fine on XP sp1-2. Publisher 2003 works fine on Vista 32bit. Publisher 2007 is not able to publish via http on a Vista machine.
Yes I agree it looks like a pattern that should be tracked.
Thank again for your support

The download fixed part of my problem but I am still unable to upload via http with a vista machine.

DavidF - 08 Feb 2008 21:21 GMT OK...I will do some more research, but if the info Ted gave us is true, it may be that the fix will have to come from MSFT. Some more points of clarification....Do you have IE 7 or IE 6 on the XP machines? Do you get anything other than "check the URL" as an error message...the more exact the better.
For the short term, you can have both Pub 2003 and 2007 installed on the same machine. I usually recommend that you install the older version first, then do a custom install of the 2007, and install it in a different folder than 2003...just call it Pub2007 or something like that. And if you are asked if you want to overwrite the old version, say no. Then with both versions installed you can open the Pub 2007 file in 2003, and upload via 2003. There shouldn't be a problem.
Please get back to me as to my questions, and I would really appreciate it if you would also report anything new that you find out. I will work at this from my end and hopefully we can come up with a solution quickly.
Thanks.

The error messages says (Publisher could not save the file to the web check your ulr or network connection and try again) Publisher 07 is now crashing when trying to upload to website. after installing the following patch http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=17C36612-632E-4C04-9382 -987622ED1D64&displaylang=en
See below for details
Not being the expert I will stick with what works for now and will continue to work the issue with my limited resources.
As always thanks again and let me know if you come up with anything.

Any update to this? Has MS come out with a resolution?
DavidF - 20 Mar 2008 17:49 GMT There really has been no progress on these issues that I know about. However, MSFT just released the SP1 for Vista, and it MIGHT help. I stress might because I have read nothing specific. Be advised also that I have not, and will not install Vista in the near future...I prefer XP. And I am generally hesitant to install patches from MSFT, knowing that on occasion while they fix one thing, they break something else. Color me either cautious or paranoid. So, read up about the SP1, and then perhaps install it, and let us know if it makes any difference. Good luck.

I have installed Vista service pack one with no change in publisher 2007, what I can say is that I did notice many smaller o/s issues get a whole lot better and a speed increase.
I have found no clear answere to why publisher 2007 is not publishing on a vista machine.
Thanks

At this point I think the directions for uploading via HTTP from a Vista machine have to be inferred from the directions for FTP uploading from a Vista machine: Prepare, publish, and maintain your Publisher Web site: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA100947601033.aspx?pid=CH100793391033 It sounds like if you "map a network drive via Computer" as in the directions for FTP uploading, but use an HTTP address, and then direct updates to that connection via Computer when you Publish to the Web, might work....but I haven't tested it, and haven't gotten any feedback from anyone that has tried it. If anyone does, let me know.
My suggestion to anyone that is having problems with HTTP uploading from a Vista machine is to read the above article, and if you aren't able to solve your problems, then at the bottom of the article you have the option of telling MSFT whether it was helpful or not. Please submit that it wasn't, and that we need more clear directions on HTTP uploading from a Vista machine. Maybe if enough people keep doing this, they will update the instructions.

Michelle - 28 Apr 2008 23:16 GMT Glad I'm not the only suffering soul...I'm not sure that it's Vista, but rather Pub07, because I tried uploading from 07 with Vista and get the "check your URL". But, I can move the file to a computer running XP and 03, and it loads right up for me. Now, I got a new lap top with XP, and put on 07...to get the "cannot connect to the ftp server". If I try HTTP, it does nothing at all...no prompt for a password

I don't pretend to understand it all, but I would guess that you have IE7 on your new XP computer, and that means FTP uploading has changed from when you used IE6.
Reference: Prepare, publish, and maintain your Publisher Web site: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/HA100947601033.aspx It is written for Pub 2007, and if you are using IE7 instead of IE6, then the directions for using Vista and FTP uploading would apply.
If you aren't using a form on your site, then I would suggest that you consider downloading and installing the free FTP client FileZilla: http://filezilla-project.org/ It is likely to be easier for you. When you Publish to the Web direct your output to your local computer and then use FileZilla to upload the index.htm file and the index_files folder intact.
