    - Force login inside Custom Sharepoint WebPart (manual login) Hi all, first, I'm sorry for my basic english, I'm from Argentina so it's not my native language. I have to solve aa very weird situation. I must do a "manual" login from inside a web part. The following scenario is what I have: The user log into sharepoint site with a generic user (the site has annonymous access, to allow this behaviour) From my custom webpart I can get valid user credentials to log into sharepoint, so, then I want to "do" de login (change the current user) from inside the webpart. Was I clear Thank you ! Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - Custom (Visual Studio) workflow versioning... Has anyone had to version their custom workflows yet I know when a workflow is deployed using SharePoint Designer, it seems to handle the versioning automatically (behind the scenes it's adding another association with a different version number). Is it possible to reproduce this behavior when deploying updated workflows from Visual Studio TIA, Craig Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - SubmitToOfficialFile Thanks Aaron A. That was very helpful. =) I was going to ask an additional question concerning file structure within SharePoint. I was going to see if you or anyone knew how to create a directory structure in Record Center with custom workflows. I have a top level site, let's call it Test. Then Sub sites, test1, test2, test3, etc......I have a custom workflow right now that when you kick it off, writes to the Record Center. What I want to do is that if you are in Test2, and you submit to the record center....it will create a folder called test2 and then upload the file to that directory under the Record Center automatically. Does anyone have any ideas on how to achieve this Thanks. --A4orce84 Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - My Site Query I am setting up my colleagues with access to Sharepoint Portal Server 2003 and have a query. On the MY SITE page accessed through the main front page of Sharepoint (which I believe can be personal to each user), is there a way for the links to the different teamsites/workspaces that each user has access to, be pulled through to the MY LINKS SUMMARY web part automatically without me manually adding them in My reasons for this are so each user has a central point to navigate to all their work without clicking on different links. Can anyone help Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - Sharepoint Server 2007 and Longhorn Server Beta 3 I did not do a clean install of longhorn, but instead did an in-place upgrade from a 2003 Server box that we installed Sharepoint 2007 on. It seems to be doing just fine. Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - SetRange Performance Jason, Looks like ECS preocessing time is close to 100 ms. The WFE time (which includes the ECS processing time) is also pretty close to this. You should profile your code to see where the remaining 250+ms are going. Also can you try calling SetCell in a loop 10 times and check the time The average will give a better measure of the processing time. -Sanjay.

    - waiting for 2 events to happen... Not sure, I removed the OnWorkflowItemChanged event, and I still receive an error. I don't think its exactly what I posted before, but similar. I get "the value cannot be null" error as soon as the item is updated (having NO OnWorkflowItemChanged activities) which seems crazy. Then on submission of the task form it acts like it doesn't go anywhere, you submit the form but the edit task bar reappears. if you do it the other way around, the workflow errors out. I have 3 ifElse Branches after the OnTaskChanged activity, 2 of them work (approval moving on to completing the workflow, and then rejecting) the third which will send it on for a second approval doesn't happen, which checks 3 boolean values (that i know get set correctly, so it must lie in the OnTaskChanged event) I'll try recreating my OnTaskChanged event and see what happens tomorrow. Do you think it could be a problem with checking a promoted field that gets updated through the item Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - 2436 Error - With a twist :) Well recently the server started recieving 2436 errors. After spending a whole day googling and trying numerous suggestions, tearing my hair out, the next morning I almost instanty figured out what the problem was However I still haven't found a solution, hopefully some guru's out there can help... Explanation below: Setup: WSS 3.0, fully patched. Single server install. I have two sites on our server, one internal over http: and one external using https: mapped to separate IP's. The server at some point started giving pairs of 2436 errors, one for each site. I wont go into all the other 2436 suggested fixes, but they mostly focused on permissions and loopbacks not working. This problem ended up being permissions in a different way... A few weeks ago we disabled integrated windows authentication on both sites because we are running novell logins instead of windows logins for all users (this will hopefully change soon, but thats the way it is ). By disabling integrated windows authentication, the service/content accounts which were manually keyed in and belong to the neccessary groups, ceased authenticating to the server! Turning integrated authentication back on fixed the problem, however we want to run with it OFF given our sad/unique environment. Has anyone run into this problem before Any suggestions on how I can get these accounts authenticating to the server without having to have integrated authentication on Thanks Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - Changing Color for Links Okay, my links that I'd like to change the color for are coming on a page that has a "Summary Link Web Part." When opening this page in SharePoint Designer, I'm not able to find where to access the core.css file to change these link colors. The way I've been accessing the core.css file is by clicking under the "css properties" tab where it says "Applied Rules". When I select a row with an applied rule, a link to "core.css" becomes visible. So then I click on the link and open up that "core.css" file that way. However, after messing around in there and attempting to change color codes, I had no luck. Needless to say, I must be going about this in the wrong way. 1) Is there another way to access the "core.css" file to change the "summary link web part" 2) Is there anything else I need to do once I edit code in the "core.css" page other than saving the file P.S. I also followed this tutorial on uploading your own css style sheet to the T: http://geekswithblogs.net/RogueCoder/archive/2007/02/06/105588.aspx . It's all about making your own CSS file and uploading it to the Core folder. I did that and then connected that style by applying it to the Master Page. Yet no changes in the colors took place. Rrrrrr! So frustrating. In this regard, I'm not sure what I'm not doing correct. LIke I said, I followed the tutorial to a T. Maybe there is some other style sheet overwriting mine Anyone have any advice Much appreciated. Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - Deploying Custom Content Types as Features using VSeWSS Hello, I am attempting to use Visual Studio Extensions for Windows SharePoint Services (VSeWSS) to deploy custom content types as features. These are the steps I followed: 1. Create Empty SharePoint project. 2. Add Content Type called "Client", this creates a "Client" folder with the files Client.Fields.xml and Client.xml 3. Added 2 Custom Site Columns/Fields to be associated with the Client Content Type. The Client.Fields.xml file looks like this: < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">  <Field ID="{3EABF79A-0A2F-4481-BD60-68DD4E89D586}" Name="ClientName" SourceID="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/v3" StaticName="ClientName" Group="NDEx Columns" Type="Text" Sealed="FALSE" ReadOnly="FALSE" Hidden="FALSE" DisplayName="Client Name" ColName="ClientName" > </Field> <Field ID="{1B301B3C-235C-4914-9F75-4A9184546072}" SourceID="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/v3" Type="Text" MaxLength="255" Group="NDEX Columns" Name="AuthorizedSigners" DisplayName="Authorized Signers" StaticName="AuthorizedSigners" Hidden="FALSE" ReadOnly="FALSE" Sealed="FALSE" ColName="AuthorizedSigners" > </Elements> 4. Link the Custom Site Column to the Client Content Type. The Client.xml file looks like this: < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">  <ContentType ID="0x010061423b716ea6476d98569734882cef59" Name="Client" Group="NDEx Content Types" Description="NDEx Client" Version="0"> <FieldRefs> <FieldRef ID="{3EABF79A-0A2F-4481-BD60-68DD4E89D586}" Name="ClientName" Required="TRUE" ShowInNewForm="TRUE" ShowInEditForm="TRUE" /> <FieldRef ID="{1B301B3C-235C-4914-9F75-4A9184546072}" Name="AuthorizedSigners" Required="FALSE" ShowInNewForm="TRUE" ShowInEditForm="TRUE" /> </FieldRefs> </ContentType> </Elements> 5. Hit F5. At this point, the Client Content Type shows up under the Site Content Types Section (Site Settings>Site Content Types), but with only the field "Client Name". Also, the Site Columns gallery is broken with an "Unknown Error" message. I changed some settings to make the unknown error show more debug information and now it says: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.FieldListRenderer.Render(HtmlTextWriter output) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildrenInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ICollection children) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildrenInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ICollection children) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlForm.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlForm.Render(HtmlTextWriter output) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlForm.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildrenInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ICollection children) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlContainerControl.Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildrenInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ICollection children) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildrenInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ICollection children) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.UnsecuredLayoutsPageBase.RenderChildren(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Page.Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) at Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.UnsecuredLayoutsPageBase.Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControlInternal(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer, ControlAdapter adapter) at System.Web.UI.Control.RenderControl(HtmlTextWriter writer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) Has anyone seen this behavior Or, have you successfully been able to use VSeWSS to deploy Custom Content Types Sometimes, the deployment will work , but most times it does not. I have a feeling it has something to do with the GUIDs generated for the content type when it's deployed from Visual Studio. Any help/insight would be appreciated!

    - Custom Content types issue First of all thanks for your quick answers.. And no, the code is not in an event handler ...this is horrible! I spent like 2 hours just to realize that a behavior was caused just by the WSS cache... I can't seem to get this to neither way: neither through newItem[ "ContentTypeId" ] = cType.Id; nor through newFile.Item[ "ContentTypeId" ] = cType.Id; I have this block now: Code Snippet public File AddFile( string filename ) { byte [] bytecontents = new byte [0]; SPFile newFile = baseFolder.Files.Add( filename, bytecontents ); if (IsExcelFile(filename)) { SPListItem newItem = newFile.Item; // using the list item's parent List, get the content type that // I want to allocate from the List's Content Types collection SPContentType cType = newItem.ParentList.ContentTypes[ "Excel file content type" ]; // allocate that content type to the List Item newItem[ "ContentType" ] = cType; newItem[ "ContentTypeId" ] = cType.Id; newFile.Item[ "ContentType" ] = cType; newFile.Item[ "ContentTypeId" ] = cType.Id; // save the changes newFile.Item.Update(); newItem.Update(); return new ExcelFile (newFile.Item); } return ( File ) SWBItemFactory .GetItem( newFile.Item ); } and it DOES NOT work.. I must be really missing something.. HEEELP... Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - where to fill out the form Not sure if this is a stupid question - I have published and then activated an administrator-approved form template on my site collection. I can see the template at http://server ort/sites/Forms/default.aspx --> View all Site Content -> Document Libraries -> Form Templates -> my_test_temp. If I double click on the template, a fillable form opens in the browser. I can fill in the form. The issues are: 1. There is no save or save as. I can only see Close | Print View. 2. When I hit "close", the form closes and I don't see the "document" I filled out though. Where is the document/form (not the template) that I filled out That makes me think that I need to go to a different place to "use" the template to create documents/forms. but where thanks.

    - Updating navigation links Hello, I would appreciate any tips or advise you can give me about this issue. Our company is using MOSS 2007. I noticed our navigation breadcrumbs are not being updated when we move sites around from underneath each other. For example: Current structure and navigation: HomeSite > SubSite1 Changes: Move SubSite1 one level down from underneath HomeSite to CategorySite (so that HomeSite > CategorySite > SubSite1 ) Problem: Breadcrumbs navigation at the very top still display HomeSite > SubSite1 instead of HomeSite > CategorySite > SubSite1 Interestingly enough, the links still take you to the correct site... In addition, any sites that we brought over from the old version of SharePoint displays our old "home" link, but takes you to the current one. For example, old home was called Intranet1 and was renamed to Intranet2 upon conversion to 2007. The old sites still display Intranet1 but takes you to Intranet2 . Thank you in advance for any suggestion or direction towards the solution! Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - Document Library Modified / Created Date after File Upload Hi Everyone I've got loads of documents from the past 3 years that i want to transfer to a number of sharepoint site document libraries When i upload the files through a drag n drop in explorer view, the files appear to retain the correct metadata for Modified Date, Created Date and Author. However, if you go into any other type of view, you get the date and time of upload plus the user who uploaded it instead of the correct meta data. Now, i've seen a couple of apps out there (like DocKit) that claim to solve this problem, but i can't seem to get them to work properly (nor do i want to spend hundreds of dollars on them) Anybody know an easy way to fix this, because it will get really confusing for end users who often use the date created / modified to identify the correct document. If you don't, and there is someone from the sharepoint dev team reading this: Please fix this in a service pack as it is stopping Sharepoint from being a truly great bit of software!!!!

    - Sharepoint Services Web Application "Status Upgrading" Hi all, I upgraded from Sharepoint 2003 to Sharepoint 2007 - it all went through OK, but when I look at the Sharepoint 3.0 Central Administration, it shows under "Assign Services" that the web application is "required on farm, not running" with a status of "Upgrading". I have tried all of the fixes that I can find; they all seem to end up the same way, reporting that they cannot continue as "an upgrade is in progress". Also re-started, re-assigned server etc - none of this makes any difference. All of the advice in the manuals seem to suggest that I should be able to re-start the service by clicking on the link, but the page doesn't actually provide that function. Most of the 2003 sites are running OK, and some of the admin is also OK; however, there are some pages that won't display, presumably because of the status of the web application. Has anybody had this problem before I've searched the forum and found nothing. Appreciate any feedback. Tag: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

    - SharePoint Server 2007 Content Deployment Issue Hello, We want to deploy Document Libraries, Form Libraries, and site content (InfoPath docs - these are .xml files) that currently exist in our DEVELOPMENT environment (running SharePoint Server 2007 and SQL Server 2005 on a single machine) to another DEVELOPMENT (aka SANDBOX) environment (also running SharePoint Server 2007 and SQL Server 2005 on a single machine). We are doing this between 2 separate DEVELOPMENT environments to "proof" it out before we try this between our DEVELOPMENT and STAGING and eventually between our STAGING and PRODUCTION environments. We tried deploying this using the following 2 tools: 1. Content Deployment process (in Central Administration >> Operations) - I setup a "Path" between the source and target environments and then created a "Job" and assigned it to the "Path." 2. "stsadm" command line utility (used the "export" and "import" operations) But we are getting this SAME error when we run these tools: [8/6/2007 1:11:27 PM]: FatalError: Could not find Feature FT-01-df5c1223-9072-7ded-b47b-a39ffc8cb5be . at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.VerifyFeatureDefinition(SPRequirementObject reqObj) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.Validate(SPRequirementObject reqObj) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.ImportRequirementsManager.DeserializeAndValidate() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.SPImport.VerifyRequirements() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Deployment.SPImport.Run() The ��Feature�� that the error is referencing above relates to an InfoPath template that was published to a Form Library. InfoPath Templates are installed as FEATURES. I verified this by looking in the FEATURES folder under \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\ on the DEVELOPMENT server. There is a corresponding folder under FEATURES for FT-01-df5c1223-9072-7ded-b47b-a39ffc8cb5be . The InfoPath templates that we developed contain custom VB.NET code (coded using Visual Studio Tools for Applications). And any InfoPath template containing custom code needs to be approved by the SharePoint Administrator. So the templates first get published to the Central Administration site (under InfoPath Forms Services). The SharePoint Administrator can then Activate it to a Site collection. So a site collection (containing Form Libraries) needs to exist BEFORE the InfoPath Templates can be activated. If this is the case, then it looks we need to FIRST create a "Blank" site in the target environment (including empty Document Libraries, Form Libraries, etc) in the SANDBOX environment BEFORE we can use the Content Deployment tool (or the stsadm utility) to deploy content. Am I correct Or does the Content Deployment tool (or the stsadm utility) actually create the site structure (including Document Libraries, Form Libraries, etc). Am I using the correct tools (Content Deployment, stsadm) to deploy content or is there another tool that I should be using Any help or guidance you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

In our case, user profiles are still showing up in the People search results AFTER the user account has been removed from Active Directory (no longer with the company). The user profile has been manually deleted from SharePoint and the record is marked as deleted in the UserProfile database table. It seems like a database indexing issue as the deleted records are not being purged out of the database index Or something else I am out of ideas....

    - Issues With Delay Activity So, I obtained the fix thanks to the Enterprise Go people - PSS couldn't help, YMMV - and Delay now works. Sort of. I set up a delay to repeat every ten minutes in an infinite loop.

I have publishing site with FBA enabled and have following site structure

Home [Anonymous Access Enabled]

|___ News [Anonymous Access Disabled]

|___ Updates [Anonymous Access Disabled]

Default Behavior

When user reaches the web site he has only home tab visible and once user is logged into the site then he can see all tabs like [Home | News | Updates]

My Requirement

I would like to show all the tabs in pre login state. But when user click on News or Updates tab he should be redirected to login page since he is in pre login state.

I am using CombinedNavSiteMapProvider from siteMap > providers section with securityTrimmingEnabled="false" but no luck.

Please let me know if I am heading towards wrong direction.

Thanks

Re: MOSS + FBA + Navigation + Anonymous Access Enabled/Disabled

John D. Ross

We ran into something similar. You've got a few options, but my suggestion would be to write some code on the News and Updates page that checks whether the user has signed in or not. If they haven't you show the login, if they have show the content. This prevents you from having to modify the navigation behavior.
