The information in this article applies to:

  • SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft

This article was previously published under Q305059

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to upload a file to a SharePoint Team Services document library, you receive an error message similar to the following:
Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this page: "http://SERVERNAME/Shared Documents/Forms/Upload.htm".

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if you edited the Upload.htm page for the document library in Microsoft FrontPage 2002.

RESOLUTION

To prevent this problem, do not edit the Upload.htm file.

To correct this problem and be able to upload a file to the document library, change the code in the Upload.htm file by using Notepad. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Start Notepad and open the Upload.htm file in the document library where you are having a problem.
  2. Locate the following HTML code:
    <Form Name="OWSForm" Action="../../_vti_bin/shtml.dll/Shared%20Documents/Forms/Upload.htm" Method=POST webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
    
    <!--webbot bot="SaveResults" s-label-fields="TRUE" b-reverse-chronology="FALSE" s-date-format="%A, %B %d, %Y" s-time-format="%I:%M:%S %p" s-form-fields="file destination" s-format="HTML/UL" b-dynamic-redirect="TRUE" b-process-metainfo="TRUE" startspan -->
    
    <input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0">
    <input TYPE="hidden" NAME="_charset_" VALUE="utf-8">
    
    <!--webbot bot="SaveResults" endspan i-checksum="45034" -->
    					
  3. Change the code so that it looks similar to the following:
    <Form Name="OWSForm" EncType="multipart/form-data" Action="../../_vti_bin/shtml.dll/Shared%20Documents/Forms/Upload.htm" Method=POST webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
    
    <!--webbot bot="FileUpload" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE" S-Date-Format="%A, %B %d, %Y" S-Time-Format="%I:%M:%S %p" S-Form-Fields="file destination" S-Format="HTML/UL" B-Dynamic-Redirect="TRUE" B-Process-Metainfo="TRUE" startspan -->
    
    <input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0">
    <input TYPE="hidden" NAME="_charset_" VALUE="utf-8">
    
    <!--webbot bot="FileUpload" endspan i-checksum="45034" -->
