Check Permissions?

Feb 15, 2011 11:39 AM

I can create connections of a web site and to a blog. I have another web site that I want to connect to. In fact it's the parent site that hosts the blog that I can connect to. But when I try and create a connection to the web site it goes off to check and after a bit it comes back with an error asking me to make sure I have permisions set properly.Permissions.JPG

I don't know which permissions it's refering to. I've looked at my firewall and Contibute has the same permisions as Dreamweaver. (Oh, BTW I can publish to the web site from Dreamweaver.) Could it be some kind of permision on my ISP's server? Any ideas.

    Hi,

     

         How are you connecting to your web server? Is it using FTP or SFTP or LAN or WebDAV? Also, in which step of connection creation do you get this error message?

    I'm also getting the same error.  I use SFTP and when I connect to the website via DW CS5 the connection is perfect.  When I go to adminster the site via Contribute I get the error to check permissions.  In another forum online, a user mentions that Contribute attempts to install something on the server or place a file on the web server.

     

    My setup is that I have a development/testing server local to me and have to use the Central IT web server for our web pages which I don't have very much control over.  But I do have a valid account to access web server.

     

    Any suggestions other than making all users use DW?

     

    Thanks

    Sorry Bernie but I can't help. I quit my evaluation (and use) of Contribute

    shortly after posting that question.
