SYMPTOMS
When you create a new subweb against an O'Reilly Website Server, the following error message appears: Unable to connect to a server at  on port 80 (Socket Error

code 10053) where  is the name or IP address of your Web server.



CAUSE
After a subweb is created, the Website Server restarts itself as soon as it can go idle. If you attempt to create a second subweb before this idle time occurs, you will see the error message above.



WORKAROUND
There are two ways to work around this problem.

Method 1
Try creating the subweb again. If the server has had idle time since your previous attempt, the subweb will be successfully created.

Method 2
Restart the Website Server manually and then create the subweb.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft FrontPage 97 for Windows and Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows.
