    - Upload document sharepoint gets error Hello, I keep on getting this strange error while uploading a document larger than 1mb to sharepoint. The contentdb is in an sql server 2000 SP 3. In the eventlog I keep on getting an insufficient memory error when I try to upload this document. I already checked if the compatibility level for the sql db is level 80, memory settings for the sqlserver are dynamically. The standard settings for uploading documents on sharepoint are the standard ones (50mb), so nothing is wrong here I assume... The server has 2 gig ram. When I upload the document in sharepoint, I get a "Form Validation Error. The webserver is busy." Can someone please give me some info on this? Thx, Sven Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54430

    - WSS v3 Move content databases Hi I asked this before when WSS was still in beta form and could not get an answer. Now that WSS has been released and we are under pressure to deploy I'll try again! WSS v3 on Server 2003. Deployed as standalone install with embedded SQL server express. Is it possible to move the default content database location either during or after the install to another partition on the server? This was possible under v2 (using MSDE and setupsts.exe with the /datadir option) but despite trawling the web I can't find a similar solution for v3. We really want to be able to move the database to another partition for performance and security reasons. Any ideas? tia Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54422

    - Create "write-only" permissions for WSS3 document library? HI, I have a requirement for a document library where some users should only be able to add to the library, not open the documents that has been added by others. I wanted to create a custom permission level with List Permissions - Add Items as the only permission, but it seems to force List Permissions - View Items as well. Accepting this pair of permissions, I then give certain users this level of permissions, but those users then can't see the document library at all (and therefore don't seem to be able to add to it). Can anyone give me some help on getting something like this working? Thanks Martin Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54420

    - SPView RenderAsHtml Small Fonts I am attempting to use the RenderAsHtml to render a View of the "Shared Documents" List. I have tried all of the views available and in every case the resulting font size is very small, so as not to be readable. I also tried to generate a custom view from inside WSS, but it was also rendered with the tiny fonts. The fonts are fine with the generic document part. I can post this in the development section but was first wondering if anyone had experienced this and if possibly a custom view is what is needed to fix the issue.

"Subscribe to this RSS Feed" generates a 404 error, not being able to find "/_layouts/listfeed.aspx". 2. Pasting the RSS feed link into the webpart RSS reader OR into a Windows client RSS reader, neither can read the feed. 3. The webpart RSS reader does work fine with external feeds.

    - Solution for Required Title for Document Library Uploading in Sharepoint 2003 Found on http://gpeiris.blogspot.com/2006/05/display-title-field-when-uploading.html Modifying SharePoint to Make Document Titles mandatory In SharePoint sites there is a default title field that is created whenever you create or upload a document in a Document Library. There are multiple issues with this field. 1. Whenever you upload a document, the title field is not available to put information into. By default whatever is in the document's properties Title field will be uploaded. 2. The Title is not a required field. To fix above problems: The title field is defined in the SCHEMA.xml file for the document library type. Open this file from \1033\sts\lists\doclib locate the line(s): <Fields> <Field Type="Text" Name="Title" ShowInNewForm="FALSE" ShowInFileDlg="FALSE" DisplayName="Title" Sealed="TRUE"></Field></Fields> You will want to change the ShowInNewForm to TRUE to get it to display in the web UI, ShowInFileDLG to TRUE for the browse-using-Office UI. To make it required simply add Required="TRUE" Another perk is that this resolves the issue of when a list is linked to a document library lookup and only the Title or ID columns are available for the user to select documents. If the original Title property in the Document was not reflective of the document purpose it is very misleading for the user using the lookup list. Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54399

    - Get Selected Value From <Select> object Hi, I have reference to a <select> object in a new item list form. i.e. var s = document.forms[0].elements["urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office#Quality_x0020_Issue_x0020_Group"]; However I am unable to determine what value has been selected in the drop down. Normal DOM would be s.options[s.selectedValue].text However this does not work. Using script debugger i have found that to get to the <Select> element i must traverse way down the tree to find the selected option. Is there no easy way to get the selected value from a drop down? What i want to do if force the user to provide another value in a different field if a certain option is selected in the drop down. Thanks Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54385

    - Installing Sharepoint Service 3.0 Hi, I am trying to install WSS 3.0 on Server 2003 OS. My C drive is compressed except for the SQL server installation folder (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server) When installing WSS 3.0 the installtion fails while installing database. I traced the error logs and found out that the database is being installed in some folder under C:\Windows which is not compressed and hence failing as the SQL server can not be installed on compressed folders. Can anyone help in letting me know under which folder, the database gets installed by default and is there any option to change this location so that all my database folders are in one place (SQL server installtion folder)?

    - Adding Trusted Users Hi, I'm able to add trusted users from another domain thru the "Manager User" window. What I'd like to do is to be able search trusted users in "Select users and groups -- Web Page Dialog" window. Thru this window, Sharepoint can only search the users in the local domain. Is there a setup in Sharepoint to enable selecting users from a trusted domain? Can the "aclinv.aspx", "userPicker.aspx" (and others) be modified to search and select trusted domain users? Another way I'm looking at this is to create a Active Directory webpart to display trusted users, select users and add them to a site. Any help is certainly appreciated. A sample code would be nice.

For almost all the sites, for 'All Authenticated Users', "Allow all authenticated users to access site" is set to No and the radio button is enabled but for one site, it is set to Yes and the radio button is disabled! Is it some WSS feature that once we set the radio button to Yes, it gets disabled and cannot be set back to No? We desperately need to set it back to No. How can I enable the radio button and set it to No? Even if it involves programming, I am up to it. Thanks, Sanjeev Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54358

    - Gather usage stats programmatically I'm trying to gather usage stats programmatically but having problems. I'm using the site.GetUsageData function, and it returns data if I specify the last date as today, but when I change the last Date parameter so that it occurs a few days in the past, the program just 'hangs' with the CPU at 100% - I've let it run 20 or 30 minutes and it never returns. I'm doing this on a dev server, against a site with very little usage, but the result is the same on a production server. in Prod, I've had to do IIS reset to regain control of the server, as it eventually quits serving pages. I'm using the function like this; site.GetUsageData(SPUsageReportType.user,SPUsagePeriodType.lastMonth ,1,DateTime.Now.AddDays(-days)) What I want to do is specify as the 'last date' the beginning of last month - then run this report several times specify a new 'last date' value. Front Page returns the data really quickly, so I know it is there and it shouldn't take so long. But, turning the FrontPage data into useful reports on 200+ sites is just too time consuming.

    - Sharepoint and Active Directory I am having strange problems of users not having access to sharepoint suddenly. How can I make sure the settings are correct for proper replication between active directory and sharepoint? For instance, I create a new user in active directory on our exchange server. I give them membership in the proper groups that are suppose to give access to sharepoint. These are groups that users who are successfuly able to connect to sharepoint are in. The new user is able to connect to all of our other servers but Sharepoint rejects them. I am new to replication and active directory... any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

    - WSS 2.0 I want to restrict user to 1 site- I allow annonym access In the rights, I only see adding reader, contributor etc but nothing denying a user to the entire portal. I wish to create a site and allow a few users to access only that site and not the others. I allow annonymous access to the site in IIS and NT authenticated users to all other areas of the sharepoint site. Is there a way to restrict access in Sharepoint. Thanks Gordon Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54305

    - Restrict Anonymous Access to view while still allowing to add to a list? We've developed a full site in IIS with Sharepoint services (WSS 2003) and it works great. However, one of our lists stores confidential information submitted by the public(anonymous). We set permissions to allow anonymous access to add items and it works fine. However, View Items is required for the add items options to be enabled. So in essence, anyone can open an item and view it. Is there any way to restrict anonymous access to a list so they can't view items but they can still add items? One alternative, could I somehow restrict access to anonymous from viewing the page that displays the item details? Thanks! Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54302

    - WSS Search, Ghosting, and Upgrade to v3 Bear with me on this one; any feedback is highly appreciated to give me an idea of where I'm at. We have an installation of SPS and WSS on a server farm here. SQL 2005 backend. Before I began work on this project, the decision was made to use the SharePoint SDK to create pages programatically; we have a link from the site definitions where users can go in to create or delete pages outside of the out-of-the-box SharePoint functionality. The program creates a new folder with the page's name and a default.aspx page within that folder for the new page, created with the site definition. We got rid of the quick launch bar and added our own navigation that scans the directory structure and makes a nice little dynamic DHTML dropdown for navigation throughout the WSS site. Pages are not stored within a document library; they exist within the root of each WSS site in the "filesystem," parallel to (for example) the "Lists" folder. I began migrating pages one-by-one from our legacy ASP-based intranet solution, mostly by copying and pasting content and moving documents over...essentially re-creating the old intranet in SharePoint. As for my issues... 1.) WSS does not index the ASPX pages that we create, since the pages are not Web Part Pages that are stored inside of a document library. Nearly all content is in Content Editor Web Parts within the SDK-created pages. What's the best attack for WSS searching? Can these pages be indexed with WSS, or will I need to redirect the search to point at SPS search (which DOES index these pages)? Any best practices? 2.) What's the real deal with changing site definitions after the site has been deployed? Impossible, other than going through each page individually and making the desired change? 3.) Is there a definitive answer on Frontpage and unghosting? I've found several different answers on this subject. To migrate from our old solution, I created WSS sites using SharePoint, and would then open the site from FrontPage to make changes to the pages, since it was so much quicker (I've had to migrate thousands of pages). So is every FrontPage-created page unghosted? What's the impact of this...I lose the "master page" functionality? 4.) Will an upgrade to 2007 be painful, given our customized page creation solution? Do unghosted pages migrate badly, or not at all? Thank you for any help on any of the questions; my Google-fu has been failing me as of late because of the complexity.

    - Login when editing document in word Hi, I have just upgraded to Office 2007 which has had the effect, that when opening a document from my Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 libraries - I'm promted for username/password 3 times. Previously when running Office 2003 I was able to open/save without being promted. The site is added to local intranet in explorer and is set to logon with current username and password. Is there a similar setting in word? I'm not promted for user/pass when accessing the site. /Peder Tag: WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Tag: 54297
