Problem with migrating presentation to live server

Hi Devils Advocate & welcome to Heroes,

If your published Articulate Presenter output plays properly on your local computer, but won't load after you've uploaded it to your Web site, please review the knowledge base article(s) below for possible solutions:

Thanks. I checked them out. The part about 160/100 slides is correct so it must be the issue.

Any idea why this would happen to only one? I uploaded several at the same time and this is the only one it happened to.

Again, thanks for the shove in the right direction. I'll try to see what I come up with.

Hello,

It might have only happened once due to a file transfer error.  Thus, re-uploading should resolve the issue.

Hey Brian, Thanks for replying.

Unfortunately, I tried re-uploading and got the same result. I also followed the instructions for ftp upload through Articulate, but it won't connect to my ftp client. I'm going to talk to our admin about whether or not the files are going over as binary as the other link suggested, but that will take a bit of time as he is not on premises.

I'm going to keep trying though

Thanks again

Ok, I tried all the suggestions I found on the links you provided. I tried to re-publish. I tried to publish using the articulate ftp. I tried to transfer everything making sure it was uploading as binary files. Nothing worked.

Do you have any other suggestions? Or is there technical support available?

Like I said before, it only happened to this one presentation, and I've been able to properly upload others before and since, so I'm stumped.

Thanks for reading

When you republished, did you republish to a new directory so as to make sure you weren't overwriting any bunk files? Also, what are the exact steps you are taking to upload? What I think might be best is if you do this:

Launch our web-based screen recorder here:

Show us exactly the steps you are taking and copy and paste the URL for the screencast into your reply here so we have a better understanding of what is happening.

Will do...hold tight. Thanks!

Publishing to a completely different folder, then transfering it to the live server worked.

Thank you Justin.

Thanks to both of you actually!

Sweet! Glad to hear that worked. There was probably just some bunk files in that original folder, technically speaking.

Hi, I have submitted a case to be reviewed, and this is the exact problem I am experiencing.  However I have already tried this solution and it did not work for me.  I republished from Articulate to a completely new directory, uploaded to server, still experience the same problem.

-All our published articulate directories were recently migrated from a dedicated Windows server to a Linux server with shared hosting on Hostgator.com

-I can link directly to the .flv file in the data folder and it will play.

And Solved!  Articulate support responded to my case and I needed to upload as binary.

Hi Brandon! I see where yourcase (00341952) has been resolved with the help of this article.
