SOAP errors in SharePoint Designer

Blogging about this for the first time but its been such a pain in the b*** for some time now.

We have been playing around with the default.aspx page quite frequently in our dev environment making changes directly to the page ( not the way Microsoft recommends)and every time that we edit the page, we get an ugly soap error stating to contact the web administrator or something like that.

After hitting our heads against the wall for about 3 days, the easiest solution to this that we found was to close web parts on the aspx page using the web parts maintainence page( just append ?contents=1 after default.asxp to get to the web parts maintainence page eg mypage/default.aspx?contents=1).

This works and the page opens up like a charm.
