Is it just one Story, or is it any story you create having this issue?
See if you can create a minimal story and publish it...that should indicate that it's not your system, it's the story.
Alternatively, you could try sending your story files to someone else, and see if they can publish the story...this will indicate that it's the system, not the story.
I know this isn't really a solution, but it could help narrow down the problem.
I tried making a single mission generic story using my custom group. That mapserved me when I tried to publish as well. I'm guessing that it has something to do with my custom group. I haven't tried making a simple one with standard characters yet. Suppose I'll try that and see if I can narrow down the problem any more.

I realize I should not be double posting, but I have received no insight from my post in the technical issues board, so I am going to ask here.
Every time, and I have tried many many times, I attempt to publish my story, I lose connection to mapserver, and then eventually lose connection entirely. I have tried changing Windows Firewall settings to allow CoH thinking that it might be causing problems, but it did nothing. I can play other people's stories without any problem, but as soon as I attempt to publish my own, I mapserve and then when I reconnect, it doesn't stay connected all the time. It's getting rather aggravating. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you.
