I'd like to get my web site moved onto my brand, spankin' new TCH host before I move the domain name to point to the new IP. However, I'm having trouble publishing to the IP address.

 

More notes:

 

I have entered various strings all beginning with http://209.51.158.250 but with no joy -- always the same error dialog, suggesting perhaps the extensions aren't loaded, among other possibilities. Well, cPanel says they are, and I re-installed them as well, but still nothing.

 

I *can* publish to my old/current provider via IP address (http://66.34.241.143), so I know it can be done, and that nothing is seriously wrong with my setup.

 

Can anyone help me?

Sorry, I tried replying last night, but the boards were incredibly slow coming up on my PC, while everything else on the site was ok. Anyway, I never get to the logon part of FrontPage, I am just at the part where I am prompted for the server (Enter publish destination). No matter what I type there for my new server, it never connects and asks me for logon info. I've tried the following (and many others):

 

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/www

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/www/tastewar

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/www/tastewar/

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/www...war/public_html

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/www...ar/public_html/

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/~tastewar

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/~tastewar/

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/~ta...war/public_html

http://server16.totalchoicehosting.com/~ta...ar/public_html/

 

and the same strings using the ip address (209.51.158.250) in place of server16.totalchoicehosting.com

 

It just comes back immediately with an error suggesting either:

1. no pf extensions (maybe?)

2. server temporarily down (it's not)

3. bad proxy settings (don't use one)

4. an error may have occurred in the web server (maybe?)

 

Please note again that I *can* publish to my old provider, both by name and address. Also, if I use your addresses without the leading http://, it assumes ftp and it *does* ask me to log in, and that all seems to work. But of course, one of the attractions here is the FP extensions on the servers. I just can't figure out what's missing. Help!

 

Should I submit a ticket for this?

Please do submit a helpdesk ticket. Make sure that you reference this thread (so they have all the info and you don't have to type it all again) and summarize the problem.
