Troubleshooting connection problems for a Contribute site

Troubleshooting connection problems for a Contribute site

When you click any button related to Contribute site administration, Dreamweaver verifies that it can connect to your remote site and that the Site Root URL you’ve given for the site is valid. If Dreamweaver can’t connect, or if the URL isn’t valid, an error message appears.

To check a Contribute connection:

  1. Check the Site Root URL in the Contribute category of the Site Definition dialog box by opening that URL in a browser, to make sure that the correct page opens.
  2. Use the Test button in the Remote Info category of the Site Definition dialog box to make sure that you can connect to the site.
  3. If the URL is correct but the Test button results in an error message, ask your system administrator for help.
