[QUOTE=Stephen]
you named the folders _name, which makes them be hidden, I have unhidden them yet again, your best option is to enabled show hidden files in your FTP client, the files are all there. When you reupload them using the frontpage, visual studio, or dreamweaver, they will most likely move to being hidden again, it is because of the name you chose.

This is the first time I get such an explanation, I can post all the ticket replies if you want… The reply I got after a few minutes was asking for my username and password, I provided them on Fri Jun 10 2005 03:51PM and didn’t get a reply until until Fri Jun 10 2005 11:03PM (that’s about 8 hours as opposed to 20 mins). Saying it was fixed, the I went to live chat and they didn’t had an idea and say they would get back at me but never did, I reopened the ticket and the process began all over again I was asked for “more time”.
Now is the first time I heard your explanation and they do not show as hidden on the cp. I also upload the same project using the same method to other servers and that doesn’t happen so I didn’t thought of it just like your support staff didn’t everytime they asked for more time!
As for the being down, you have no files in the classes folder you reference, and the codebehind file referenced does not exist, so the page and service don’t work.
Not true, what you and your staff didn’t knew is that when you’re missing a reference you get an ASP.NET error (unless custom errors are enable) not a “Server could not be found error.” like I as getting and also your support staff (actually what he first told me is that I was trying to access a blank page since he look at the files and only saw the assebly reference and didn’t knew what it was).
We also tried to access an HTML page and that wouldn’t display either, so we got to the point that he didn’t knew what to do and told me to open a ticket, then all of the sudden they must have restarted iis or something but it started working.
I got the chat conversations and all the tickets and can post them so please don’t try to make it look like it was my fault and try to make it better instead.
The website began getting slower gradually all morning until it became inaccessible, I couldn’t even access it through frontpage extensions (vs.net) so it wasn’t a problem with my code.
We been having this problem on and off ever since you had the big dns problem and only with that sub-domain. Sometimes it can be accessed from one location and not another. But it’s a constant thing with that domain only, and with different ISPs.
Could you confirm that my actual dns configuration is exactly what I can see on my cp? (there might still be an old record causing problems).
You know the cp is often wrong like in the case on the hidden files above.
