    - Insert picture in content on 2007 gives me an error Hello I have a developement server running Sharepoint 2007. So far, besides the usual Sharepoint fustrations, most troubles had a cause. However, I've run into a problem I can not solve. I've created a sitecollection, a colloboration site. I run a danish version, so whenever I want to search google for hints etc, I have to try to figure out the exact english equivalent to the danish names etc. What a pain. It would be nice to know the enlish names. Now to the problem.. When I create a page, ie. under the News section, I use an article pagelayout. However, suddenly I can not insert images into the page. When I try to attach a thumbnail image or ordinary image in the fields assigned to this by default, Sharepoint says "Unknown error", and am error page is shown. I can not in other words, insert an image when I want to select the image from the Select image window. I can set the settings, but when I click Browse (for the image) the error page shows up. I cant see that I've done any changes the last two days to the server, templates or the like, that would possible influence and cause this problem. Does anyone have any suggestions to where I could troubleshoot ? Cheers Jakob BTW: Please feel free to reply to my working email. Its: JBO then add @ and offcourse add BRF.DK Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100782

    - All of a sudden, Sharepoint won't launch client application & wors When I do a check out and edit of a Word doc (most of them saved in 97-2003 compatibility mode), the client application is not being launched. If I do a two-step process (first a checkout, then select edit, I get a message saying that it's going to open, but it doesn't. If I double-click on the document icon, I get the dialog asking if I want to checkout and edit or just open it read-only. If I select "checkout and edit" then instead of opening the document I get a "Save As" dialog, which gives me the option of saving it as either a docm or docx file to my Sharepoint drafts folder. That's it. Doesn't bring up the document. If a first launch the Word application, before attempting to access the document via Sharepoint, then I can open the document from Sharepoint. BTW: I have configured this library to open documents in the client application, and that configuration hasn't changed. MS Word 2007 is configured to save files in doc format. Also hasn't changed. This was all working fine a couple of days ago--I could checkin/checkout normally, Sharepoint launched the client application, etc. etc.. However, there a lot of security updates done to my workstation in the last couple of days, I'm assuming that that is the culprit--but what can I do to resolve this? I just want it back the way it was two days ago! Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100771

    - Shared Services Administration? What are the Shared Service sites for? Is one created for every new Web application? I currently can't access the only Shared services site on my Web Farm .. How can I gain access to it? I'm currently the Farm Administrator? How can I check who has farm administration rights? Does it make sense to have a different AD Service user for the content sites, the Share service site and the Pool? What's the benefit of this? We are currently trying to integrate SSRS into Sharepoint are are having trouble deciding what AD user should be used for security on both sides. Should the SP Service user for Sharepoint also be the Windows and asp.net user in SSRS? How can we change what Service users where created for the farm or a specific web application? It's pool? Its Shared Service site.. which I'm still not clear on. Thanks for any help or information. Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100770

    - access denied to images (again) (it seems my first post of this question did not work properly under my account. posting again. Sorry.) I have several site collections on a sharepoint 2007 farm. One of the sites has a problem loading images from /_layouts/images/. Specifically, if you go to any sub site from the root and go to modify the navigation, a username/password box appears and if you cancel it several times it will load the page without graphics. Other site collections are loading the same graphics from the same C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\TEMPLATE\IMAGES location just fine. The site in question was using basic authentication. I switch to windows integrated and it didn't change the problem. Any ideas why this one site can't pull up these graphics?

    - Office SharePoint Server Search not showing in list of services Thanks in advance for any assistance. I'm trying to figure out why my Search isn't working. I don't see the Office SharePoint Server Search isn't listed in my resources when I go to Central Administration > Operations > Services on Server, the service isn't listed. From another post troubleshooting this issue, I ran the following command: stsadm -o osearch -action list which resulted in "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Everything has been installed on both boxes, as I have the Template \Features folder under the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\ directory. I'm at a loss. Do I have to reinstall the MOSS? Central Admin offered to redeploy the features to sites, which I did, but the search isn't working.

    - IWA with IE started via smart card credentials Win 2k3 IE 6+ on XP Pro SP2 Hi, I'm logging on to the OS as userX (username / pw) then starting IE as userY on a smart card via createprocesswithlogonw to attempt Integrated Windows Authentication to a sharepoint homepage. The userid is the string version of the cert, the passwd is the PIN and there is no domain. IE starts fine. TaskMgr shows it running as the correct user. I then navigate to the IWA web pate. IE prompts me for credentials. I've tried setting IE to automatically logon or logon with un and pw via options in multiple sites. None alleviate the issue. If I start IE with runas via un / pw it can IWA me just fine. If I logon to OS with smart card and run IE as that OS logged on user IWA works fine. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the smard card credential invocation of IE via createprocesswithlogonw to work correctly? Thanks. Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100762

    - MS Access on Sharepoint - random I/O errors A biz friend has coded up his timesheet application in MS Access 2007, with the actual tables/files located on his remote hosted dedicated server running Sharepoint 2007. Everything has been running fine for months - until this week - Now, the application gets random errors on the tables, indicating an I/O error ?? different tables, etc He can go onto Sharepoint and open the table & all is fine. But - back in Access - the table icon indicates the "link" is bad, and the only way he has found to "fix it" is to delete the link & re-establish it. Any ideas for him to chase down..... or how to handle these "error conditions" so that the link is not permanently broken ?? thanks for any suggestions - -- ---------------------------------- "If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something." - Steven Wright Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100760

    - Web Part Permission Issues I am using Spt WSS services 3.0 with a workflow application. A web part causes Web Part Error "Can not serialize the web part" error. In testing, a sharepoint user can use the web part if they are an administrator on the sharepoint server. I did refer to article 826786 which talks about the default permissions on the temp folders. I have tried this fix and it did not work. I even tried removing sharepoint and re-installing to no avail. I even tried to determine what directory is causing the permission block using filemon. After enabling the error details I get this information: Please advise/help _______________________________________________ Web Part Error: One of the properties of the Web Part has an incorrect format.

    - Corrupt Index on one WFE We have 2 WFE servers (WFE1 and WFE2) and we are seeing event logs that we have a corrupt index on WFE1. Here are some of the logs: Event Type: Error Event Source: Office Server Search Event Category: Search service Event ID: 10038 Date: 9/5/2008 Time: 9:53:02 AM User: N/A Computer: WFE1 Description: Query machine WFE1' has been taken out of rotation due to this error: The content index is corrupt. 0xc0041800. It will be retried in 15 seconds. Component: c9dba2c2-0077-46f7-b352-aeeddb6ac2fd And Event Type: Warning Event Source: Office Server Search Event Category: Search service Event ID: 10039 Date: 9/5/2008 Time: 11:18:17 AM User: N/A Computer: WFE1 Description: Retry of query machine 'WFE1' has failed with error: The content index is corrupt. 0xc0041800. It will be retried again in 900 seconds. Component: c9dba2c2-0077-46f7-b352-aeeddb6ac2fd The end users are not affected, since they can still get their query results from WFE2. Is there a way to "gracefully" stop the search and index on WFE1, delete the index files, and let them repropagate? I have also thought about resetting all crawled content and doing full crawls again, but that would take a lot of time to recrawl everything. Has anyone seen this before? If so, how have you overcome it? Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100749

    - MOSS 2007 Task notification issue Hi everyone, I found a strange issue on our MOSS 2007 SP1 farm: In normal cases when you create/modify a task the assignee receive a notificacion e-mail. In our environment the owner gets mail on creation but none if any modification made. As I know the Immediate Alert Timer Job responsible for this notifications. When a task is created a new record appears in the EventCache table (this time the EventData and ACL coloumns has values). This job is scheduled to run every 5 minutes (default value) collecting the new events from this table. When this events processed the EventData and ACL coloumns get NULL value. I set verbose logging during the test. In the first case (creation) I've found the next message in the ULS log: AlertsJob processed 1 immediate notifications in 1 digests, sent 1 emails, failed to send 0 emails second case (modification): AlertsJob processed 0 daily notifications in 0 digests, sent 0 emails, failed to send 0 emails Any suggestions?

    - Summary pages in SPP2007 Hi, I am unable to figure out the layout concept for SPP2007. I understand that there are pages that hold and show content, and then there are quicklaunch links, and headings, sites etc. organized in a hierarchy structure. However, there is one problem. If I try to create an intranet site from top to buttom, I am unable to add url of pages for headings. How can I create those "summary pages" that show what other content is in the heading? If i build my intranet from bottom to top, using libraries etc..those summary pages are created automatically. But if I create a new heading, what should I set to link from this heading hyperlink? There is no page relevant to this heading. I hope somebody understands my problem. Thanks Chris Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100706

    - RE: WFE Confusion - Farm Down RE: WFE Confusion - Farm Down We are building a new Farm. One Moss server, Two WFEs Load Balanced and a SQL cluster. For the sake of explaining this here are the server names. MOSS WFE1 WFE2 SQL (ACTUALLY SQL1 AND SQL2) Right now, the FARM is down and WFE1 is behaving odd and I need to troubleshoot what might be going on - but first I'd like to ask about best practices. When the Farm was up .. 1. we created a number of new web applications, some worked, some did not. Dumb question, should a new application be created as http://moss or http://wfe1 given server names?.. we noticed when we create http://wfe1 you could still get to the site via http://moss, but the minute you click on a link you are directed to http://wfe1/somthing and prompted for authentication again.. 2. We noticed there are third party sharepoint features that use to deploy just fine in our simple one server topology, when we attempt to deploy these through the WFE1, they don't deploy. Now, trying to understand why we are down. 1. we use to be able to run the Central admin from MOSS, WFE1 and WFE2 .. when we attempt to run it from WFE1 now we get a dialog box to please wait while SPS 3.0 is configured, and then another that the feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk. From the MOSS server, I can see that WFE as configured. How can I troubleshoot this. 2. We have a number of Applications on different ports we had created just for testing, I am unable to get to any of them. When I attempt I get: Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage Which sever and log do I go to troubleshoot this? Thanks for any help or information.

Every once in awhile, the 2008 virtual server crashes... if i go into virtual server to view its screen.. it still shows a log in screen, but its "locked up".. no blue screen.. my only choice is to "reset" the 2008 server and its back up and running.. I check event logs but cant find any useful info.. Has anyone run into this either on a Sharepoint 2007 server with 2008 (physical) or virtual environment? I havent activated the 2008 server yet, not sure if this has anything to do with it.. I also wasnt sure which activation method was the best choice here either.. i hate to have to dedicate one machine as an activation server, was thinking of doing the old style activation via the command line.

    - Hiding site user profile data from other site users We are rolling out a community portal using MOSS 2007. Users will logon with AD accounts which have been added to site groups in advance. We do not want community users to see personal information about other users, eg. email address, phone number, logon etc. However, whenever such a user sees another name listed in a document library or list they can click on it and it show them the details of the user. Indeed they can access the following URL to see the details of all users in their group: http://portal/_layouts/people.aspx I assume that when the user is added from the AD domain it imports directly into the WSS site user directory?? I've played around with the Profile properties on the SSP but it seems that certain properties are mandatory for import. Even setting the options to not display certain properties does not affect the display of data stored in the WSS site User database. Any ideas?

    - Cross-site document copying (preserving meta data) Hi, Would someone know of a tool that can copy files between 2 sites on 2 different instances of Sharepoint, keeping meta data? We have an external facing instance of Sharepoint 2003, and an internal facing MOSS 2007 instance. We want to be able to share a given document library with the external people. We tried with Robocopy but we loose all the metadata and properties. Does such product exists? Of course, we need to have this thing automated to run every so often during the day, so a manual process is out of the question :D Thanks! Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100661

    - local account and email alerts I have a Sharepoint website. We would like to use local user accounts for access and they are working fine. Is there any way to allow those users to receive email alerts as well? It seems only active directory accounts have the email addresses to allow this feature. Please clarify. Thanks, Chris Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100655

    - Serives on Server disappeared. Hi, we have Sharepoint Server for Developers and each developer has his/her own Dev Server in VMware environment on their local workstations. 3 weeks ago the services on Server disappeared from the SharePoint Developer Server. I've searced a lot of sites the only thing I can found is the sharepoint Portatl Server can lock the Farm Topology for several reasons: Backup which we not using so far; site Maintaince which also we not running. I resolved the issue by using the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard to disconnect from the Database. Then use the wizard back again and connect to the existing Database and used different port number. After the wizard finished, I can see the services and I started them with no problems. I've also used stsadmin to change the port number to our default number. All is working good, until now the issue came back again. I know if I do the same thing as I did last time it will work, but I would like to know the reason behind this and why this are happening. BYW I've ran Microsoft Best Practice Analyzer for Windows SharePoint, I didn't have any errors only minor warning. Please help Thanks Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100649

    - Explorer view VERY VERY slow on one x64 Vista box... We run Sharepoint enterprise 2007 on a 2008 box... In one and so far, only one, instance of x64 Vista.. it seems that explorer view mode is horrendisly slow.. IE: you open up the folder structure and double click a folder, it will often take 10 seconds for the next level to refresh and show.. Opening files like xls or xlsx takes a long time as well. This is also the same if you just do a start.. run.. \\sharepointserver\path\doclibrary I tried the same test on another x64 Vista box and it was flying. Any thoughts as to what could be causing this slowdown? Thanks Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100648

My question: Does anyone know the best way to do this? or any good walktroughs or some good resources for information about this? Fredrik Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100646

    - Monitor Action Items by sending alert in Sharepoint 2003 Hi, I am using Sharepoint 2003 and I would like to know how can I change the Actions Items by adding fields like "first due date", "second due date". And how can I use alert to monitor them. For example, when the date reach "first due date", a 'soft' alert will be send to the action item owner. If the item still not close till the "second due date", another alert will be send to the owner and the project leader. I would need to customize both of first level and second level alert. Can I do that using Sharepoint 2003 ? Please help to advise further. Thank you. Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100643

    - Sharepoint dropdownlist ordering Hi, I have a dropdownlist in a list, which is populated by a sharepoint child list. How can I change the ordering of the fields as it appears in the main list? I have changed the ordering in the child list, but the dropdownlist in the main list always seems to be in alphabetical order. Hope this makes sense. I'm using MOSS 2007. Thanks in advance! :) Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100642

    - FBA quit working I've been using FBA on a site for six months without difficulty. Suddenly it has stopped working. Entering confirmed correct authentication info returns an error: The server could not sign you in. Make sure your user name and password are correct, and then try again. The site shares content with an AD authenticated site. When I log in there and attempt to manipulate the FBA users accounts I get an Unknown Error. Tag: Blog post times off by 3 hours Tag: 100627

I have a peculiar issue. I have a blog set up and in the properties
of the blog for the publishing time, I have chosen a calculated
value. When a user posts to a blog, the value is off by 3 hours. It
will fill in the correct date and the minutes, but the hour is off by
3. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Carmine
