Description of the Microsoft Windows Registry
In FrontPage 2000, errors relating to Visual SourceSafe integration are not automatically logged in the Event Viewer. For troubleshooting purposes, you may want to enable this capability by editing the registry.
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may
require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve
problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk.
- Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Locate the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\All Ports
- On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry value:
Value Name: LogInitialSourceControlErrors
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: 1
- Quit Registry Editor.
NOTE: All errors logged by FrontPage regarding SourceSafe integration are
logged at the server-end of the transaction. On a Windows NT system, the
errors are logged in the Windows NT Event Viewer Application log. On a
computer running Windows 95 or Windows 98, the errors are logged in the
Frontpg.log file, which is located in the root of the drive where Windows is
installed. The errors are not logged to the client computer.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 5.0 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 6.0 Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
