    - 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: any guidelines about uploading a windows folder tree to sharepoint site or just uplaoding a folder with its files into sharepoin

    - 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: any guidelines about uploading a windows folder tree to sharepoint site or just uplaoding a folder with its files into sharepoin

    - SubmitToOfficialFile Ah well, I figured it out btw.... you can call the SendToOfficialFile method by doing this string result; string properties; result = workflowproperties.item.file.SendToOfficialFile(out properties); assuming you have the official file setup correctly. and yes, it is that simple...it does exactly as choosing the send to --> official file from the menu context on the item.

    - 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.

    - SetRange Performance Sanjay, I ran this to turn off logging: stsadm -o setlogginglevel -category "general" -tracelevel none It had no real impact on the performance of SetRange. My single call to SetRange is 368ms. I ran my application while perfmon was running, watching the ECS and WFE counters. Here were the results: ECS: 0.097 WFE: 0.106 Is there anything further that I can do to improve the performance Thanks!

    - waiting for 2 events to happen... I've gotten "event receiver context for Workflow is invalid" when I forgot to associate the BeforeProperties and AfterProperties with a field or if I use the wrong correlation token. The fact that the first error occurs regardless of the order of your actions makes me think that the error is in the OnWorkflowItemChanged activity and has nothing to do with having both EventDriven activities in the same state. For the OnTaskChanged, it does seem like there is a problem with serialization. Does the workflow work correctly if you take out the OnWorkflowItemChanged activity and just have the OnTaskChanged activity Good luck. -Cynthia Tag: any guidelines about uploading a windows folder tree to sharepoint site or just uplaoding a folder with its files into sharepoin

    - 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: any guidelines about uploading a windows folder tree to sharepoint site or just uplaoding a folder with its files into sharepoin

    - Changing Color for Links I was indeed suggesting to find and replace the ones that you wanted to change. Maybe replace all wasnt the best word to pick for that. In sharepoint designer you can open the core.css file and see what you are changing it is very helpfull and I suggest to use sharepoint designer to edit the core.

    - Custom Content types issue Ooops .. sorry .. you are quite right. ContentType is readonly! Well done on the ContentTypeId property. That should work though. Just to make sure, apply the changes to the "newItem" object instead of the "newFile.Item" property. so... Code Snippet 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[ "ContentTypeId" ] = cType.Id; // save the changes newItem.Update(); Tag: any guidelines about uploading a windows folder tree to sharepoint site or just uplaoding a folder with its files into sharepoin

    - 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!

    - Check services enabled in the farm says inconsistencies in MOSS services Thanks for the response - unfortunately, all services look OK. This is warning is accompanied by two error messages: "The query server index file location on <SERVERNAME> is not shared. This location must be shared to allow for this server to receive propagation." - one error message per WFE server. Bizarrely, they are NOT listed when the browser is running on the first box built in the farm - just everywhere else! I can only think there's a permissions problem somewhere, but I have already reduced my service account list down to the bare minimum.

    - 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!!!!

    - How to use ASP.NET 2.0 theme/skin files in Sharepoint with SmartPart and UserControl I'm converting some ASP.NET user controls in an effort to run them in Sharepoint using SmartPart v3. My controls all use ASP.NET 2.0 theming, with the themes mainly setting CSS classes which exist in a CSS file in the directory with the .skin file. I don't know how to apply the same theme files within Sharepoint - do I still create an App_Themes directory under the root directory of the site How do I ensure the standard CSS for Sharepoint is included alongside my additional CSS classes Thanks in advance for any ideas!

    - 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.

    - 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.

    - How to check data source permissions If your data source is defined to call a web service using the http:// protocol, the retrieval will probably fail if you access the published form template via the https:// protocol, because this is seen as being on a different domain. If your form template will be accessed via https, then your web service should also be accessed via https. If this is not possible, then in addition to using Full Trust on your form template you will need to use Central Administration to enable the web service proxy for InfoPath Forms Services. If your form template needs to be accessible using both http or https, then you may have to modify the data connection URL at runtime using code. It is possible to use different web service URLs on different sites by using a.udcx file in a Data Connection library to define the web service connection parameters. On your MOSS site collection, create a new document library using the Data Connection template. In InfoPath, open the Data Connections window, select the data source, and click the Convert... button. Save a .udcx file for the web service in the library you created. To change the web service URL, download the .udcx file, edit it in Notepad, and upload the .udcx file back to the library. Check in and publish the udcx file. BTW - If you don't see the error message in the Event Viewer on the server, then check the SharePoint log files. By default, these are stored in the folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\LOGS".

One thing to keep in mind is that any file with certain special characters (or just ill placed ones) will break the upload. Specifically, and this is in no way a complete list I'm sure, all & and # characters must be removed and a file cannot have two consecutive "." characters.
