The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q198123 SYMPTOMS
When you open a FrontPage extended Web, the following error message
appears
in the client:
An unexpected error occurred while accessing your FrontPage Web files.
Authors - If authoring against a web server please contact the
webmaster
for this server's site. WebMasters please see the server's system log
for more details.
The following error messages appear in the server's system log in the
Event
Viewer:
Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions:
Unexpected C++ exception: [INDEX] Index (0) out of range [0->4294967295]
Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions:
Received empty response from Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions
CAUSE
The errors are caused by a malformed meta refresh tag in the head section
of an HTML document.
RESOLUTION
The tag looks similar to the following:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="15;"url=home.htm">
The problem is the missing quotation mark after 15. The quotation marks
are
unbalanced. A correct tag reads as follows:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="15;url=home.htm"> or
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="15";"url=home.htm">
NOTE: The number and URL above are only a reference and will be different
on your system.
To find meta refresh tags on a system with many Webs or a large amount of
content, do the following:
- Click Start.
- Point to Find, and click Files or Folders.
- In the Containing text field, type "refresh" (with the quotation
marks).
- In the "Look in" box, point the search to your content area.
- Click Find Now.
This locates all files that have the meta refresh tag. You then need to
examine each file's meta refresh tag for syntax, paying close attention to
the quotation marks.
