This error means
that there was a problem when Front Page attempted to
communicate with the server. Possible causes are:
--Network congestion through your ISP or static on the phone
line you're connecting through may have caused a communication
error. The first thing to try is canceling out of the
error and trying to publish again. Often times canceling
and re-trying will clear the problem
--Not being connected to the internet or a problem with your
internet connection. Many services like AOL have a
timeout feature that automatically logs you off after a
certain amount of time. Check to make sure that you are
still logged on. Even if you have an 'always on'
connection like DSL or Cable there could be an issue with the
connection. Try going to your web browser and typing in
a well known website you've never visited before like
etoys.com or amazon.com to verify that your connection is
working.
--A slow internet connection. A slow connection may
cause a timeout error on the server. Essentially your
computer isn't communicating enough so the server assumes it's
finished. Keep in mind that some 'high-speed'
connections have super fast downloads but very slow uploads
(some as slow as 14.4) so it may take a few tries to pass all
of your files to the server.
--If you've used FTP to upload files to a FrontPage site you
have likely corrupted the Front Page extensions. Click
here to request that Front Page extensions be reinstalled
