Content Deployment Does Not Automatically Create Projects for FrontPage Webs

ID: Q236153

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Site Server version 3.0

SYMPTOMS

Although the Site Server 3.0 documentation states that projects for FrontPage Webs are automatically created on servers with Content Deployment installed, no FrontPage Web projects are created on your installation.

CAUSE

Automatic project creation is disabled by default in Content Deployment.

RESOLUTION

To enable automatic project creation, run the following command from a command prompt:

SSCD setglobal EnableExtensions=Yes

To verify that the setting was added properly run SSCD queryglobal from a command prompt.

You must stop and start the Content Deployment service before the new setting will take effect.

MORE INFORMATION

The automatic project creation is disabled by default, as will not just create projects for the existing FrontPage Webs on the first virtual server instance, but also for all virtual directories on the same virtual server instance.

It is also important to note that automatic project creation does not add destinations for the projects, which is fine for end-point servers, but for staging servers, the destination must be added manually.
