    - Change redirect URL? Is it possible to change the redirect URL during a gradual migration from WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 without killing the migration/web app and starting everything over again? I see in the SiteMap table in the WSS 3 config database, there is a column named [RedirectURL], but am unsure if changing this value will do anything (or is a supported thing to do). Any thoughts? Anybody? Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67775

    - Install WSS3.0 to SQL 2005 Standard I'm attempting to install WSS 3.0. I do not want to use the embeded sql server. I would like to use an already installed sql 2005 standard edition. I've tried a few install senarios without any luck. I'm basically looking to build a standalone machine with WSS 3.0 on it, and there is a requirement to use SQL 2005 Standard versus the embedded edition. Choosing Advanced, then doing the configuration does not work, it never prompts for a database server, Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67772

    - moving document libraries from WSS 2.0 to MOSS 2007: how? Hi, I have been tasked with creating a MOSS 2007 site that centralizes department information that is now scattered on file shares, plain old HTML pages, and some WSS 2.0 sites. The WSS 2.0 sites run on a different web server, but it is in the same domain. There are some document libraries on the old WSS sites (but not all of them) that I would like to "migrate" to the MOSS site. It is not feasible to download all individual documents and upload them again to the new site. First because of the large number, and second because I need to keep the user and modification date intact. If I just upload, they will all be on my name on today. So how can I achieve this goal? Also, I am not an administrator on either of the WSS/MOSS servers, I am just the "owner" of a MOSS site. TIA, -- Amedee Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67768

    - Login problems for external users Internally everyone who should have access get access without logging in, but we have external users using our WSS using VPN. Since they login to their computer with different domain credentials, we assumed they would get a login/password box. So they can use an account in our domain. But that does not happen. Any ideas how to get that up/configured? Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67766

    - Word 2007 Won't directly open documents from Sharepoint A few of my users (consultants) are using Office 2007. When they click on a document in my sharepoint document library the document will not open. Instead Word opens and just sits there. However if they do "download a copy" they can open the document just fine from their own computer. It's not a permissions issue since they have complete access to the site and can upload/download documents just fine. Any ideas what this might be or what I should search for? I'm drawing a blank on Technet. Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67756

    - Agenda ID or ID Column - How to restart to 1 in a Recurring Meeting I am using SharePoint 3.0 as an Admin or with Full Control. I have a Meeting workspace with an agenda for a recurring meeting that was created in Outlook 2003. I would like to add a column to the Agenda list that allows for restarting the Agenda Items to number at each instance of the meeting. For example, I can use the ID column, but the IDs just keep tallying up; 1, 2 and 3 in meeting one. 3, 4 and 5 in meeting two, and so on. How do I create a column so when I go to meeting three, the agenda items restart to 1, 2, 3, etc instead of 6, 7, 8. Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67744

    - bug with custom list from site collection template Hi. I have a problem. Then I create a site collection from template I can't make my custom list web part to appear in my favourite view. Here is my sequence: 1. Create custom list 2. Add some columns. 3. Make a custom view with some number of columns. 4. Add a custom list web part on home page. 5. Change custom list web part and select my custom view. 6. Save site collection as a template. 7. Create site collection from template. And I see my custom list, but with only one column - "Name". It is not the view that is in the template. Yes. The custom view exists and I can change it manually on every site I create, but it is very strange behavior for Sharepoint. What's the trick?

    - Authentication: the Torture Never Stops I'm really not having any luck designing authentication for my sharepoint site: we have a wss 3.0 site for our intranet and then subsites for each of our customers to log into and view team disscussions and documents. The goal is for internal users to be able to open the intranet site using domain credentials and without needing to give a username and password. On the outside I would like customers to be able to come in and just give username and password. Additionally when opening documents I don't want any authentication dialog boxes to come up. After alot of work, the internal portion is working - employees can open IE and get into their resources without re-entering a username and password. They cannot get where they don't belong. However, when customers try to login remotely (http over the inet) they are being required to give their username in a <domain name>\<username> format. Security is set up: IIS - Integrated Windows and Digest Authentication. Sharepoint through Site Admin - IIS has Integrated Windows with NTLM and Type is Windows. IE trusts the site(s). MVP Todd Klindt earlier suggested I use Basic Authentication, but I had a problem with opening documents (security prompt) which KB 871155 had me uncheck Basic in sharepoint Central Admin. Also, it's clear text and I didn't really want to use SSL, so I chose Digest Authentication which I understood to be kind of the same but secure. Just to make things more fun the whole shooting match has already been pushed into production, so I am limited as to how much boat rocking I can do... Thanks for plowing through all that!

    - Search within Documents WSS 3.0 - SQL 2005 Hello, I am running WSS 3.0 with SQL 2005 on a separate server. I would like WSS to return the results if it finds my search term inside the document. I thought this work when I had installed it in a previous life, but I am wondering if I forgot to enable something on this install. If I am searching for the word test1 and the word test1 appears in doc1.docx, doc2.docx, and doc3.docx, then I would like the results to be doc1.docx, doc2.docx, and doc3.docx. The search itself is working if I search for doc1, I get doc1.docx returned. Please let me know what I should look at. Thanks, Greg Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67703

    - Issues with directory management services after installing After installing the July Infrastructure Updates for MOSS, our server has been having issues with the Directory Management Service. We originally set up Incoming E-Mail on the MOSS server using the SharePoint Directory Management Service for creating groups in Active Directory. This has been working perfectly in conjunction with our Exchange 2007 server and we've been managing group memberships through MOSS web interface. Unfortunately it seems the WSS Infrastructure Update has broken this functionality. Now when approving the creation of Distribution Groups, the group itself is created and the email address is attached, however the users are never added to the group in Active Directory. Adding a user to the SharePoint Group results in the following error when the Directory Service tries to make the change in Active Directory (see below for a log file extract) : The Directory Management Service has reported an error which is not recognized by Windows SharePoint Services. No other changes have been made to the system, or to the permissions or structure of Active Directory. I have been able to recreate this scenario in the same network environment using a development VM - creating Distribution Groups works fine until the WSS Infrastructure Update is loaded. Anyone else experienced this problem?

Ideally, too, it would be good to have a "Map" feature similar where you can link directly to map software so the address plugs in directly and you can pull up directions to the customer site. Any thoughts on developing this in Sharepoint? childofthe1980s Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67649

    - WSS FAQ additions and changes - 3rd - 9th August 2008 Special Note: The next issue of this will be on the 31st of August. Note: All of the addresses of the KB / Articles - 2007 Products / MS / Non-MS Articles below were valid at the time I added them to the WSS FAQ site and to this file. I can't guarantee that they still are. (This is also posted to my blog at http://mikewalsh.bilsimser.com) (This is also posted to the WSS newsgroup at microsoft.public.sharepoint.windowsservices - web access via http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/server/sharepoint.mspx) (Items are added to the WSS FAQ throughout the week so you will find new items more quickly by checking at wss.collutions.com or www.wssfaq.com daily.) From 3rd - 9th August 2008 NOTE: Amendment to KB articles: Microsoft are now not amending the date of a KB article if the change made is marked as a version point change (so from 2.2 to 2.3 for instance). This ought to mean that the amendment made is cosmetic rather than important as important text changes ought to result in a major version change (such as from 2.2 to 3.0). Because of this change and to avoid unnecessary effort I will in future not amend the listings in the WSS FAQ sites if only a minor version change has taken place. I will continue to amend both the date and version numbers of major version changes and of course will continue to add all relevant new KB articles that my RSS feeds and other sources give me.

    - How do you change the e-mail address of an email enabled list? I am trying to change the e-mail address of a list, but when I try to do so (through "Incoming e-Mail Settings" on the Document Library Settings page), it just gives me an error ("Error in the application"). In the fine tradition of MS error-message-speak, it's one of the best. Some details: - I am trying to reuse an address that had previously been assigned to another list. - I removed the contact that had been created in AD/Exchange 2007 for the list that previously owned the e-mail address - I have searched through AD and the address does not exist (both through dsa.msc and by dumping all e-mail addresses using LDIF) - I checked the tables in the Sharepoint database and I only see "valid" e-mail addresses. I think it is choking on the re-assignment because it "sees" the address somewhere else, but I'm buggered if I can find it. Anyone have any ideas or work arounds? Thanks....

    - WSS 3.0 sends new subscription alert, but no further alerts wss 3.0; windows server 2003 farm (1 web front end, 1 database backend) i'm sure this issue is not SMTP. i have several other applications using my smtp server without problem. the issue is that sharepoint is not generating alerts. when a user subscribes to a list, the initial "you have successfully created an alert" email is generated and received by the user. however, users receive no further alerts when the list is updated, even if the subscription is set to send the alert immediately. this problem arose a few months ago... just after i applied SP1 to wss 3.0. in fact, i would say it was working before SP1 and stopped working after it was installed. i have tried various ways to track down the problem, but i can't find an error anywhere... so i have no clue what the problem is. what i have tried: 1. enable smtp logging. logs show smtp never receives mail from sharepoint (i.e. nothing happens because nothing is given to smtp from sharepoint) 2. turn up sharepoint logging... i can see where i add a new item to the list... but never see the logging for an email being generated... and there's no error either. 3. no errors in event viewer. 4. reboot sharepoint server. no change 5. check timer job definitions. one exists for immediate alerts, and shows last run time that is recent. i'm at a loss. ideas? thanks.

    - Maintain Groups/Rights - Site Template or Site Definition Hello all, I have created a number of site templates in the past to primarily maintain look and feel and blindly thought that if I created some custom groups and some folders in the Shared Documents with custom permissions that when I saved my template checking the 'Include Content Box", it would save those. Obviously not the case as when I imported the site, I did have my folders in the Shared Documents, but none of the groups or rights. I had done some looking around and it appears that maybe I need to create a new site definition instead. I am looking 1) confirmation on that and 2) a link to a good walkthrough Thanks, Greg Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67633

    - How to determine which Sharepoint I'm running? Hello all, I'm having a variety of problems managing my Sharepoint sites. I'm sure a lot of them stem from not knowing what services I'm running, or at the very least, this complicates researching answers. I've asked around my organization, but no one seems to know for sure and guesses have been contradictory. How do I determine whether I'm running WSS 2.0 or 3.0, and whether I'm running Sharepoint 2003, 2007, or neither? For what it's worth, my suspicion is that we're running WSS 2.0 and no MOSS at all, if that's possible. Thanks Shae Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67622

    - Search Problems..... I have a new install using WSS 3.0 SP1 and the internal DB. This is a very straight forward install but for some reason when I try to search for anything I do not get any results. There are no errors in the event viewer to help point me in the right direction. Can anyone please help me figure out why Search is not working for our WSS install?

    - Subsite Menu Tab and Shared Documents Folder Hello all, Couple questions that came up from after showing one of our WSS 3.0 sites. I understand why things are the way they are within WSS 3.0, but since these questions came up. I thought I would ask. 1) A subsite was created and the option was chosen to show it as part of the Top Menu (as a tab). The question was, is it possible to only show the tab if you have access to the site. I am guessing I would have to do some "precheck" when the parent site loads then hide it via code if the currently logged in user is not a part of the subsite. 2) When a user does not have access to a directory in the shared documents area, then directory is not visible to the user. Is it possible to show all the directories then if a user clicks on, give them an access denied message? Without having to give them rights at the folder level and removing all their rights to the files. Again, I understand why it is the way and I like it the way it is, but I said I would ask. Thanks, Greg Tag: Blank Comments Created in List Tag: 67616

I have an Issues list where users can make comments and an ongoing
history of the comments is kept by username and date/time.
Every time that a User edits any other field in the list and presses
the [OK] button to save the form a blank comment is also created.

Is there any way to suppress blank comments from being created?
Thanks,
Kier
