Error Message When Publishing: Web < web name > is busy (185542)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft FrontPage 97 for Windows
- Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q185542 SYMPTOMS When you try to publish a FrontPage Web to the Web server,
the following error message may appear: Server error:
Web < web name > is busy. Please try again. CAUSE This problem occurs due to an interrupted connection to the
server during the publishing process. STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft
FrontPage 97 for Windows and Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows when connecting
to a computer running Internet Information Server 2.0 or 3.0. This issue was
resolved in Internet Information Server 4.0. MORE INFORMATION When the connection to the server is lost during the
publishing process, the Service.lck file remains in the _VTI_PVT directory of
the Web.
The Service.lck and frontpg.lck files deny the FrontPage
client access to a Web on the destination server during publishing.
WORKAROUND To publish after a lost connection, you must do the
following: - On the server, stop and restart the HTTP
service.
- Delete the file \<Web Root>\<Web
Name>\_vti_pvt\service.lck.
- Delete the file \<Web Root>\<Web
Name>\_vti_pvt\frontpg.lck.
- Publish the Web.
