Does anyone have any ideas on how to get my web page reposted to the free pages. My computer engineer son was home this weekend. He took a look at the situation. We still could not get any results. We put it up in September and it was not restored after rootsweb.com for the most part had been back up and running again after the recent crash. My son does more computer hardware and does not do much anymore with software. Was able to get my account to more or less work. It says I am subscribed to 42 e-mail lists and that I have a free pages space. I was able to get back my user name and password on the free page space. Yet the page I get up says it can't be found. When I tried to start over and subscribe to a new space, I got a computer error on rootsweb.com part. At least that is what it looked like. I am getting a few more postings from the e-mail lists. Not nearly has many as a few years ago when I would get a dozen or more every day. Vivian Cates, Alto, Texas 1-936-858-3801

Freepages-help traffic is sporadic depending on whether someone has a question or problem. Freepages users are allowed only one account, so if you already have one, you can not request a new one. If you have your userID and password, try logging in using File Manager <http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/fileman> If you can login there, then your account still exists. Some users have reported that http:// access was disabled on their account and when they checked with the HelpDesk ( email: [email protected] ), were told that suspicious files were found in their account so it was disabled until the bad files were removed. You can do that using File Manager. Once they confirm the account's files are clean, they will enable http:// access again so you and others can see your site at http://freepages.xxxx.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~userID/ Pat A.
Hi Vivian, I know it is old fashioned but Freepages FileManager will at least let you upload directly. Sometimes, computers are a pain..one little thing wrong takes a zillion hours to troubleshoot. So I try to "trick" the computers to do what I want, meaning, give it something it understands and see if it works. So uploading your index.htm/l file via File Manager should make it visible that you have a page on a website. If that works, then, try uploading one folder and check it on the web. If that works, try your ftp program. If the program fails, go back to File Manager and upload the rest. Judy
Vivian, is this your website mentioned in this newsfeed?
