I can't recover my web site from a remote site.

Dear Sirs.

In NetObject Fusion I see only two options to recover the web site from a remote site, that we have tested but doesn't work.

1- Open a File From Existing Web Site or Import Web Site: After we fill out this form, This option provide a msg that say: Unable to contact page: www............

2- Open from Remote Template: This option have a field named " Repository Path", I never configured a Repository Path and when we asked to the company that is doing the hosting to our web site, they say that they don't have configured a repository path. So this option doesn't work without this field and we don't have this information.

So, how we can recovery our .nod file and our entire web site from a remote site to import to our new computer? (note: we lost our previous computer with all these information).

I will appreciate any help that lead to recover my web site.

Best Regards
Mario

what is the URL of the site in question?

this is the web site

www.lgitcctv-latam.com

Did you upload your .nod file to your remote server for safekeeping? If not, and if you didn't keep a backup copy, then you are probably stuck. I have never been successful importing a published site into NoF and recreating the Fusion database. However, you do have all the assets in your published site so use HTTRACK or a similar app (I use sitesucker on a mac) to download your site to your PC and then redo your site from scratch. It's not a big site so shouldn't take too long cutting and pasting into a new NOF site.

thanks for your answer. I supposed that when I published the web site, the .nod file should go to the host. I tried to find the .nod file in the host, but it looks that is not there, anyway as you say, I need to start over again. Thanks

You can go over this tutorial.

It will explain how to export the site as a template.

Nod file contains the coordinate but NOT the graphics so even uploading your .nod file will mean hours/days to restore a site as you will need to find all of the graphics and re-link them. Very tedious. Just don't do it.

The tutorial explains the export process and at the end gives you a link to another tutorial that explains how you can have the template uploaded automatically to your remote domain every time you upload/publish your website within Fusion.

This tutorial has been around for over 15 years with this same advice in it. If followed, no one would ever lose anything.
