    - Web site not opening Hello, I installed WSS using the download availabel on microsoft site at the following link http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=efdc7227-549c-4de1-a063-783f71a8bb2b&DisplayLang=en After installation I created a Virtual server with the default content database. This site was used by our CIO for storing some documents. We were thinking of moving the site to a more powerful server from a PCC server(PC Convert ). So prior to purchsing the server I wanted to copy the VS to another server on trial basis. I searched the same and came across a document that would help me do this. I was supposed to detach the database and take a back up of the same and then reattach it. Then take a back up of the site using staadm. I did the same. After reattaching the database I tried backing the site I got an error <<Unable to get global configuration data>>. I tried accessing the site the same error. To solve this problem I searched the KB and found the following article Article ID : 900499 Last Review : July 12, 2005 Revision : 1.0 I followed the suggested solution but to no result. I even tried Article ID : 832770 Last Review : September 8, 2004 Revision : 1.1 and changed the application pool identity. No use. Another thing that i noticed was that the content database that has been attached to the virtual server shows 0 web sites in the current web site column when viewed from the central administration -> Manage Virtual Server -> Manage content database. Can someone help me with two things:- Where the documents saved in the document library are stored. Is there any way to find and save these documents to a new location.

    - New WSS Templates in ISP Hosted Enviornment I am working with a neighborhood center that is trying to setup a public website based on WSS. They have signed up with an ISP that offers WSS. However, we are running into two problems trying to configure the site to use one of the new templates. The ISP is unsure of how to deploy the template to our top-level site. They have somewhat successfully (see below) made the template available to subsites. The content of the template is displayed (lists, sample items, etc.). However, the design scheme (colors, graphics, etc.) are not applied. It looks just like a standard WSS site. Since my only experience with SharePoint is in a single server scenario (and I assume they have one of the more involved server farm setups), I'm not sure what, if any, direction to give them in making this work correctly. Any advice? hanks, Ed Lee Tag: Customized Explorer View Tag: 33692

    - Copying a discussion group to another discussion group Hi, I have 2 WSS sites they are not connected in a portal in any way one is a test and the other is live. We recently decided to recreate the structure of our site. The new structure was built entirely on the test site. We intend to wipe the live site and upgrade the hard drives etc... once done we are going to backup the new structure and restore on the upgraded server. I can download all the documents stored in the Shared Documents folder as versioning was not turned on, then upload them to the new site. There are however some items that are in a particular discussion group on the old WSS site that I need to keep along with all its threads. Is it possible to backup just the discussion group and then restore to a new rebuilt site? If what I have written does not make any sense, let me know and I will try to elaborate further...

    - Accessing External Data from a List Is it at all posible to access external data from a wss list? I have made up a simple issue tracking solution using WSS. The system runs great. But would work better if I was able to import data into the list from another application. Example: A client calls up with an issue. The tech looks up their client information from SQL using a web based front end we made. They then have to input that same information into the issue tracking list in wss. Is it posible to import the data directly from the web based SQL data into the list so the tech dosn't have to retype it. Thanks, Steve Tag: Customized Explorer View Tag: 33625

The previous discussion is at http://tinyurl.com/aj696, it took place around Feb/March 2004.

    - User rights for Subsite stop working Using latest WSS (SP1): According to the subsite user rights page, the users have at least read rights to the site. They do NOT have rights to the parent site. The problem is, when the user tries to access the subsite, it asks for a password. When they send an access request form, the email indicates they're requesting access to the parent site instead of the child site. I must have changed something because this is a new problem.

    - Cannot delete an issue which is not current I'm trying to use SharePoint for bug tracking. I created a new list and picked "Issues" as the type of list. I customized the list through "Modify Settings and Colums" so that we have a "Status" field with 4 possible values that may be chosen. Next, I created 4 views. Each view filters the list according to one of the statuses. While using one of these views, I edited an item and changed the status. When I saved it, the status was not updated? Worse, when I go to the default view of "All Items", there are now 2 duplicate items with the same issue ID.

    - Bugs in Explorer View of Document Library... Hi, I'm using Windows XP SP2 and IE 6.0.2800 to access Sharepoint Services 2.0 and Portal 2003 sites. I have noticed several abnormal behaviors when using the Explorer view of the document library. Has anyone experienced any of these and do they have any suggestions? 1. Sometimes documents added in "All Documents View" do not appear in the Explorer view. Although I noticed if I use Windows Explorer, I can see the documents. Also, if I close the browser and delete catch files the problem appears to get resolved. 2. Sometimes documents deleted in "All Documents View" Keep appearing in the Explorer view. I can even delete the document again in Explorer View! 3. Sometimes going from All Document to Explorer View, I am prompted for my credentials again! No matter what I do, the system keeps rejecting them. However, if I click on cancel, the Explorer View opens! 4. Copying between Document Library using the Explorer View appears to work for the most part. If the document libraries have the same columns, the values of all columns appear to also copy over. But this does not occur for a field called "Description", regardless of whether it is multi or single line column. Bugs like this make me rather nervous about opening the prototype to our user communities. Your advise is appreciated. Thank you. Tag: Customized Explorer View Tag: 33524

We have a requirement of creating a site/page that will have custom
left and top bar. The left and top bars will have links/buttons that
will display information in the central display area/page body.

The central part will display folders in explorer view and all links
will open only in the central part of the same page.

Please Suggest.

Replace the center zone with an iFrame (you can do this with FrontPage
2003).
The tool bar links just need to specify the target frome name which you gave
to the iFrame.
Example of something similar...
