Help!Can't log on to my webspace to upload
« on: Thursday 21 July 05 09:43 BST (UK) »

I have read through the forum, hoping to find an answer's to what ever it is I'm doing wrong. I've download Coffeecup to upload ftp. I'm using publisher for the webpage.
When I try to upload and it asks for my login name and password it is not reconized. I'm using the same login name and password for the forum, is this correct? or are we issued with Rootsweb name and password for first login? Huh Huh
I received my e-mail when I requested the page, I confirmed with in minutes using the link.
Hope someone can help
Thanks Jane

Hi Jane,

Welcome to RootsChat  and to RootsChar webspace  Smiley  Smiley


when you got your confitmation mail for the webspace, you also got user-name and passwords for your webspace and for the ftp manager.

the user-name is your-webspace-name_rootschat_net and the password is the one you entered when applying for the webspace

If you've lost the e-mail, you will have to wait till Trystan can tell you what was in it !

Hope this helps !
Bob

ps: if you think this is difficult, maybe it has something to do with your name:
Muehsam or Mühsam is german for laborious  Grin  Grin

But don't despair, you'll get there !

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your help, Bob. No I never did receive an e-mail in regards to webspace I did wait and wait and thought I did something wrong!.

I've done a lot of research on my surname, it actually go backs further than that. I've talked to a lot of Germans here in Australia and have asked what the meaning of my name is. Some same "difficult"oh boy did I have fun with my hubby! other's who come from other parts of Germany have told me these people are ignorant and the name means "hard working" and  "to go above and beyond the call of duty"and it is an honorable name. Going back in history is was given to a person with the surname of Pappenheim and was bestowed on the family by Frederick the Great.
See what Genealogy can do for you!!
thanks again
Jane

Hi Jane,

when did you your request web-space ?

Although I am not the web-space administrator (Trystan is !) I can tell you this much:

You apply for web-space
You receive an e-mail (almost immediately) but this e-mail is an automatic response to say your e-mail has been received.

The next stage is that Trystan assigns you some space, and then tells you when this space is available.  This is a manual process and depends on when Trystan has time -- and he's very busy at work at the moment, so it might take longer than usual.

If nothing happens within the, say, the next four days, PM Trystan and ask him directly.

Bob

ps. mühsam = difficult, laboured, exhausting, laborious, etc

Hard working = arbeitsam, fleißig
to go above and beyond the call of duty = Über die Pflicht hinaus

Maybe the meaning has changed in the course of time, but I doubt it !

But maybe you are "arbeitsam" anyway  Grin

Hi Berlin Bob,

My last comment may have sounded very rude, please forgive me. The person who told me about my surname meaning was 80+ is German with still a very thick Accent. I was always taught to mind my elders, and show respect. Actually I was very scared to speak up! So ok I'm still a nice Welsh girl, who was raised to have respect to her elders and never speak back....... they are always right!! (the older people).
Hopefully no disrespect, and I will still always listen to my elders, no matter what!!
One day I will be the elders and someone may listen to me.
Thanks Bob for your help

Hi Jane,

No problems ! no offense taken as I didn't find it rude at all.
Some "chat" more on postings than others !

I hope you do speak back now and then, the "elders" aren't always right, you know  !!!
(Although an 80+ year old ? You probably wouldn't get very far there !)

So, on another topic entirely, How's things with your web-site ??
Is it active yet ? If not PM Trystan directly and ask him. There is such a lot happening at the moment, that he may have overlooked it.

regards,
Bob
