I'm installing Stitz on a FP system. On a host that says that Stitz is their preferred pakage."

When I first setup the database it said it didn't work and suggested a solution (I hadn't set the database location).
It then gave me a message saying the Forum was setup correctly and "Click here to go to the forum". When I do I get this error:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ee'

Expected ')'

/forum/default.asp, line 272

if rsForum("F_TYPE")="1" then Response.Write(" colspan="4")" % bgcolor="<% =strForumCellColor
--------------------------------------------------------^

I didn't edit that line. If anyone has a clue on this I'd appreciate it.

Did you use Frontpage to transfer your files?

If so, Frontpage is notorious for changing code in files. If you can, it would be better to use FTP to transfer your files.

I thought if you had FP site, you couldn't FTP file to it.

Since the file is already there, it should be ok to use FTP to overwrite the current file with one that hasn't been corrupted.

I've never run into problems using FTP on a Frontpage site...

That sometimes works also. I think that there is a setting somewhere in Frontpage to tell it not to change code in your files.

You normally just have to drag the original default.asp file into the destination web open in FP.

This error happens when you publish from your hard drive to the webserver or from one server to another. FP attempts to update some code string it's reading as a local link, which screws everything up. But, for your future reference, it's just the one page :o)
