I'm having a problem with one of my forms. I'm getting the following message when trying to submit the form:
Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this page: "
I have the Front Page Extensions installed at the Hosting Account.

I have another website with a contact form setup just like this one and it's working fine.

Also when I open the contact page and try to reset up the Form Submit properties I get this message:

This form is being created on a Disk-Based Web or the FrontPage Server Extensions have not been configured to send email.
 
Th "Disk based web" message is just a reminder that the FPSE need to be set up on the destination server. The answer to the prompt is "No".


As to the form itself, you should have received an answer from me via another venue.


Hope I have been of some help,
Micheal

Mikie15 :
I have the same problem right now, same msg on one website while the form works fine on the other one.
I narrowed it down to an error msg during the FrontPage extensions installation that is run by the ISP :

vti_error0:SX|Saving Form Results to E-Mail will not work unless either the "SMTPHost" or "SendmailCommand" server configuration parameters are set.

I don't know how to solve this problem yet. Maybe somebody else can help. I'll post if I get some answers.
 
Thanks for the tip. My ISP is still looking into the problem and they are taking a looong time to do it.
I believe it has something to do with SMTP or sendmail settings in the server. I just don't know how to change them.
The ISP told me first to re-install the F.P. extensions, then to turn SMTP relaying on (which is done online at the ISP site)
but still the problem persists.
