Its been awhile since I updated my webpage through front page (maybe 6 months). Since then a lot has changed on my system; a new computer and firewall. I tried to do a synchronize through FrontPage for the past week and I keep getting timeout errors. I’m just checking to see if there is a particular port FrontPage needs or if this functionality has been disabled on Astahost.

It looks like some how the FrontPage files became corrupt. I manually deleted the FrontPage extensions off the server via FTP and then uninstalled/installed the extensions via CPanel. It looks like everything is working now but I did loose all the hit counters. I also had some strange errors while reinstalling the scripts.



I wish the error messages were a bit more descript. Bottom line, if you are having problems like the ones I described, try uninstalling and then reinstalling the FrontPage extensions from CPanel / Site Management Tools / Frontpage Extensions.
