    Unhappy Publishing FP 2002 Web to Hard Drive

    I have XP Media Edition, Version 2002. I get the following error message when I try to publish my FP 2002 website to my hard drive: The following page in your web are ASP. This will not work because the server you are publishing to does not support ASP. The page is identified as
    cgi-bin/sendpass/default.asp

    Hi :welcome:
    Firstly let me give you a huge apology. I feel so awful for not having seen/answered your question. For whatever reason the forum has stopped notifying me via email of any posts people make and I have not yet got into the habit of checking each section all the time. I am so sorry. Certainly I was not ignoring you, I used to be so quick in getting back to people.

    Okay to the question in hand, although you have probably solved it by now the time it has taken for me to get back to you
    :dense:

    The error message you are getting will be because you are trying to publish an .asp page to a server that does not support asp and cgi stuff. in other words the page and whatever script the page calls for will only work on the host server not on your computer. That is quite a standard message. It is a bit like making a FrontPage form and when you save it FP tells you the email wont work do you want it deleted. Well no, cos when it gets onto server it will work ..... so that is why you get that message, whatever the page is designed to do from the cgi bin it wont unless on the host server. The cgi-bin contains scripts etc for working from the server. The page you mention is a password reminder script.

    Hope that helps
