Viewing my database on the web - HTTP 404 Not Found Error
When I try and view my database on the web. I am getting HTTP 404 Not Found error. I have a navigator created. When I log in to the database from the web, what tells it to show a navigator? The launch in properties in pointing to Use notes launch option. I have others that are set the same that work. Could someone please help me understand what needs to be in place to view on the web.
Something is trying to load that is not compatible with the web client. For example, there may be code trying to execute that only works in the Notes Client. the trick is finding the offending design element or code.
What exactly are the Notes launch settings?

Ok, let me see if I understand:
1. You have a database that launches a frameset.
2. You are using the same frameset for the Notes and Web clients.
3. The frameset loads properly in the Notes client but not in the Web client.
Questions:
How many frames are in the frameset (I think 3)?
Are you actually using a Navigator design element? Your use of the word "view" above is a little misleading. A view in Notes is a design element. The terms "embedded outline views" and "navigator views" are confusing me.
What exactly is contained in each frame (ie: frame1 = page with an embedded outline, frame2 = view). The order is not important.

the web frameset has 2 frames.
Frame 1 = Name = NotesNavigator ( Named Element
type = Page
value = outline which has the embedded outline
Frame 2 = Name = NotesView (Named Element
type = View
Value = All Documents
When I view the database on the web, I see
Frame 1 - it looks and works ok
Frame 2 - looks like it appended something to the left side of it. It was a Navigator named OverAll, but I deleted the Navigator from the database, so now there is a empty space where the Navigator was.

There was a hidden frame, but that did not fix the problem.
When I open my database on the web - I see three buttons at the top of the page.

Where are these buttons coming from?

I found a form called $$ViewTemplateDefault and that is there the Navigator was coming from. I made a back up and deleted it. Now I don't see any views on the web
Frame 1 = Still with the embedded outline and working
Frame 2 = is now blank and no views show up
Frame 1 = Still with the embedded outline and working
Frame 2 = is now blank and no views show up
What is the setting for Frame 2. Is it computed, a url or a View design element?
Also, can you open the view from a URL? Ie: http://Host/Database/View

I have now gone back to a basic web view. I am not trying to use any framesets in my web view. The database is set to use Notes Options when launching. I have a navigator created. When I login I get the HTTP 404 - file not found. I really need to get this working so I am increasing the points
