iWeb 2.0.3 released: hopefully addresses lingering publishing bugs

by CNET staff

[Wednesday, January 30th]

Apple has released iWeb 2.0.3 with the typical, almost-absent release notes:

"addresses compatibility with Mac OS X."

Hopefully this update resolves some maddening publishing issues that continue to plague users, including:

  • An error occurred while publishing file '/Web/Sites/Sites.rss'. Try publishing again later."
  • "Publish Error. Can't create the file "nameoffile.png." The disk may be damaged  or full, or you may not have sufficient access privileges."
  • Finished product often shows a variety of formatting errors. In the words of one user: "Pictures are moved or resized, fonts are  changed or moved, and buttons / links have shifted to different lines, especially on menu pages."

The new release is available through Software Update, or as a 17.2MB standalone download.

Problems or noticeable enhancements after the update? Please let us know.

    Yee-ha! It looks like I waited long enough. This update finally got all the way through updating my old site. I saved it, made some changes, saved it again, all worked fine. I haven't published yet, not quite ready to attempt that yet.

    My original issues is an iWeb publishing error stating "An error occurred while publishing file "/Web/Sites". Try publishing again later."

    I have just applied the iWeb updater to 2 machines (Intel 24" iMac and Quad G5 PowerMac both with 10.5.1 and all updates to date).

    What I have learned...

    I am having the exact same problem with one .Mac account, however using another account with the same iWeb site publishes fine, which leads me to believe is server related. I have tried both .Mac accounts on both computers and with multiple user accounts.
