You are not doing anything wrong. The ISP Tripod does no longer distribute 'unknown' content, such as a family tree. In fact, GenoPro.com does no longer too. I wanted to prove this was working at http://www.genopro.com/skins/preview/ and all my .gno files are no longer accessible since I changed to a new server with Windows 2003 in November. I am currently investigating this issue. I suspect an extension problem since the file http://www.genopro.com/gno/MorinFamily.txt is still working.
I downloaded your family tree http://simmywi.tripod.com/tree/familytree.gno.txt and saved it under http://www.genopro.com/temp/familytreeSimmy.gno.txt. When I manually open the file familytreeSimmy.gno.txt, it works, but when I try it from the URL, it gets opened using Notepad. I am investigating this too.

I found out Internet Information Server (IIS) for Windows 2003 does not distribute unknown content. This stuff was working under Windows 2000. I had to manually add the ".gno" to the MIME type "application/octet-stream".
I will contact Microsoft to have the .gno extention "registered" as safe, and therefore distributed without having to configure IIS. By the way, if you add a global MIME type to IIS, you need to restart IIS.
If you want to distribute .gno files on your website, you may have to contact your ISP. The extension .gno is already known to database such as FILExt (http://www.filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=gno).
The other alternative is to rename the .gno to .txt. I still don't understand why sometimes the .txt opens in GenoPro (as expected) and the other time the .txt opens in Notepad.Some web servers may even prevent to upload the .gno file by ftp.

That was exactly what happened to me when I tried. I still don't understand why and how I could fix this problem.

Humm.... I have Windows Server 2003 too. Can you send me the link of your report. Can you try to FTP another .gno file on your server and see if you get the HTTP Error 404 (file not found).

http://www.familytree.the-maynard-family.com
I actually have the website files located on a local hard drive of the webserver. I also have frontpage on this machine, so I am just refering the home directory of the website to the frontpage folder.
When I created the report, I had it generate the report in this directory.
If I rename the familytree.gno to familytree.txt, it will open via the web, but in notepad with barbage.
I would like it to open up in the webpage similar to what I have seen other websites do running genopro.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have spent days messing with applications and extensions trying to get it to work.
Sincerely,
Mike

Your file http://www.familytree.the-maynard-family.com/familytree.txt is correct. I downloaded it on my machine and opened it with GenoPro without problem.
Can you verify if the MIME content type was typed properly? I don't know what else to suggest. There is little to do when a server returns a "file not found". Perhaps flush a cache, but you already did this by restarting IIS.

Everything works if I am browsing the html locally. The tree opens right up inside the right pane. I figure that there has to be something in server 2003 isolating this extension, but I just can't figure out what.
