Error Message:
FrontPage Error.
User: please report details to this site's webmaster.
Webmaster: please see the server's application event log for more details.
Cause:
This issue occurs if the email address specified in the webserver's mail address box is invalid, or you are using an aol.com or hotmail.com address in this field.
Resolution:
Use another email address other than your aol.com or hotmail.com address. You need to change this in both your Hosting Control Center and FrontPage.
Hosting Control Center:
In FrontPage:
- Open FrontPage and click File>Open Web.
- Enter your website address and your username and password when prompted. Your website will open in FrontPage.
- Select the file that contains the form that is generating the error and right-click on the Submit button and select Form Properties.
- Remove all the values and click OK.
- Save the file and test your form.
- Add the values for the submission back one at a time, save the file, and test the form each time.
- If after putting all the information back into the form again does not resolve the issue, please uninstall and reinstall your FrontPage extensions, recalculate your hyperlinks and republish your site.
For more information please see Microsoft's Help and Support page.
