    - WSS 3.0 Workflow and InfoPath 2003 Hi, I'm working on automating a Purchase Order business process using InfoPath 2003 and Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0. I want to set up a Purchase Order workflow on the form library and need it to be routed to the Line Manager of the person who created the InfoPath form. I've written a Web Service that queries Active Directory and retrieves the logged in user's Manager when the InfoPath form is loaded which I then set on the InfoPath form. However, I need a "User" type field on the Sharepoint library to route the workflow to but when the InfoPath form gets saved it stores the Manager field as a text string. Is there any possible way that I can automatically route the workflow to the User's manager without requiring the user to select who the Manager is via a Sharepoint Designer workflow form? Thanks, Adrian. Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57192

    - Changes to Usersprofile in ADS - delayed effect in wss 2.0 Hello when I change membership of a user to different groups, it takes several minutes before our wss 2.0 server accepts the changes (even if the user is logging in again). Is there some replication between the WSS 2.0 and the ADS or should these changes take effect right away? Our network department knows of no reason of a delay caused by the ADS (like replication between domain controllers). Thanks for your help.

    - Sharepoint Migration assistance Our setup: Current Web Server hosting numerous apps including Sharepoint v2. SQL Server housing the database for our SharePoint site Test Server What I would like to do is test doing an upgrade with our current production data. Also, since our SharePoint server currently resides on a server that houses numerous apps I would like to move it off of this machine and place it on a machine dedicated to running SharePoint only. I have tried creating a backup of the content dbase and putting it in a new instance (Called TEST) on our SQL server and pointing our test server to this instance. I get numerous errors when trying to connect TEST to our test server running v2. My question is, how do I easily move our current version 2 data to this new server so I can do some testing on the upgrade process to v3? Are there some good step by step instructions on how to go about migrating v2 data to a new box and then doing an upgrade to v3? Thanks for the assistance.

    - controlling sort order We've got several links on our sharepoint and it seems like the latest link added ends up on the top. There doesn't seem to be a way to control the sort on these links. I've looked into this several times because it seems like that is something that should be easily managed. Now I have to ask, how can I make it where the links are alphabetically sorted by the description? Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57173

When I click on a buttom I create a document (.docx) and put it in a Document library I'v created. My question is I'd like to (from my code which is a UserControl) make it like I'v click on "Edit in Microsoft Word". That mean it open the document from the library and let me modify it and when i click save it replace the document in the Document library. So Response.Redirect(FileAddress); Is not a valid option.

    - Problem with SharePoint 2007 Backup and Document Library I am having a major problem with WSS v3. Every few days random office documents uploaded to document libraries will not open. The browser reports the document could not be opened and that the path or filename is invalid. At the same time the SharePoint backup stops working. If a backup is run from Central Admin, the process hangs when it gets to the first content database. Both issues can be resolved by rebooting the server. These problems are related and I'm assuming the content database is the cause. There are no errors in the SQL server or event logs. I have run SQL profile traces on some counters to get some indication of what is going but haven't turned up anything. The only thing unusual about the farm is that it was migrated from Beta 2 TR and moved to a new server with MOSS RTM. Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any help is appreciated.

    - Pass SharePoint Form Values to Web Part Page I have a WSS form (newform.aspx) that once the user fills out the form is then redirected to another web part page. This works fine but I would also like to pass the values of 3 form fields to the web part page (page1.aspx) via the URL. On the bottom of the newform.aspx page, I have the following: <input type="hidden" name="NextUsing" id="NextUsing" value="page1.aspx" Is it possible to build a string to include the form values to be passed to a web part page?

    - Change Redirect URL during Gradual Upgrade I know I can uninstall v3 and start over with the upgrade, but I would, of course, prefer not to. Is there any way to change the URL that v3 redirect un-upgraded sites to? I screwed up the host header during set up and there seems to be no way to go back. If I change the host header in IIS Manager, I see it change on the gradual upgrade progress page, but the redirects no longer work. Is this a field in the DB someplace? Some setting I can twiddle in the admin console? Thanks, Steve Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57133

    - Override item-level permissions for a list I have a SharePoint list with several custom site groups needing different permissions. One group is able to read, write, and delete their own entries (via item-level permissions), and the other group should be able to read, write, and delete any entry on the list. I realize the second group can do this if I give them the manage lists right, but I don't want them to be able to change column names, field calculations, etc.. Essentially, I'd like to override the item-level permissions on the list. Is there a way to do this for the one site group? Thanks.

    - WSSv3 Migration Hello, I have Sharepoint V2 running on one server and we have been looking at moving to V3. However, we want to place v3 on a box of it's own. The way it is setup is i have Sharepoint v2 on a server currently being used for many other things. I also have another server where i have installed v3. We have a third server running SQL 2000 where the databases for both versions are being housed. Little to no customizations have been done on V2 and V3 has very little content in it currently. Since i have v3 already installed i believe it is possible to move the database only from v2 over to v3 without much hassel is that correct? I have seen some articles but all have been a little confusing to me. A Sharepoint deployment/migration article and word doc i have been reading has been saying to use an addcontentdb operation part of the stsadm tool but i don't see that operation as an option when i runn stsadm.exe -help and it constantly errors out saying the operation is invalid. Are there any step by step articles on how to do migrate the dbase? In my setup, what is the best method for moving to v3 in your opinion? Thanks in advance.

    - WSUS 2 SP1 and WSS 3.0 problems running both on same server Hi, Can anyone point me to any information regarding the subject. I've attempted to install WSUS 2 sp1 on a server that is already running Sharepoint services 3.0. When I installed it to a custom website I kept getting an error in the management console about the SelfUpdate service couldn't be detected. So I found an kBase article (don't remember the number) and ran through it's workarounds. Still get the same message on the admin console. So I thought maybe uninstalling it, and renistalling it to the default web site would help it along. Nope! Because of the WSS 3.0 installation the Default web site won't start (both sites use the same port (port 80)). Okay so I try move the two services (ClientWebService and SelfUpdate) service to the WSS 3.0 site, since they must run on port 80, instead of the customized port of 8530. Still doesn't work. How can I get these two services to play nicely in the same sandbox? TIA, Art Billings Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57119

    - Problem with some alerts after upgrading to WSSv3 Hi all! I have a prboblem with alerts after upgrade to WSSv3. The old configure is like this: ServerOld SiteOld (WSSv2) ListOld Alerts is working fine. Upgraded to WSSv3 by following "Deploy a new server farm, then migrate content databases" (http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/WSS/en/ library/dd03cc53-718c-4183-af99-a5f309010fe61033.mspx?mfr=3Dtrue) @ TechNet. So the new configure is something like this: ServerNew SiteOld (Upgraded to WSSv3) ListOld (same list as above) ListNew (New list) If i create an alert on ListNew and ListOld i get a mail saying i created an alert. If i add(or edited) a item to ListNew i get an alert saying a new item was added. If i add(or edited) a item to ListOld i don=B4t get an alert. To summarize: After upgrading to WSSv3 the old list don=B4t generate any alerts, but all the new lists do. Do i make any sense? Is any information missing? Do some one have a solution for this or can someone point me to where to start troubleshooting.

    - WSS 3.0: Opening a SPSite works on development, fails on live Summary: I have .NET 2.0 code to open a SPSite that works on my development server and fails on the production server. I suspect a configuration issue and would like help on where to look next. Detail: I'm using the following (abbreviated) code to open a SPSite. Compiled in VS2005, the Sharepoint reference is to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.dll. using Microsoft.SharePoint; namespace com.melandra.Agile.SharepointShim { public class GroupingList { private string siteUrl = null; private SPSite site; public string SiteUrl { get { return siteUrl; } set { siteUrl = value; } } public GroupingList() { // Do nothing } public void OpenList() { site = new SPSite(SiteUrl); ... } } } (Sorry for the property-based stuff - it's a long story) This has worked fine on our development box for some months. It cannot open any site I create on our production server, failing with the following error (I've replaced the site name with ...sitename..., as it's sensitive): The Web application at http://...sitename.../ could not be found. Verify that you have typed the URL correctly. If the URL should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request URL mapping to the intended application. at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(SPFarm farm, Uri requestUri, Boolean contextSite, SPUserToken userToken) at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite..ctor(String requestUrl) at com.melandra.Agile.SharepointShim.GroupingList.OpenList() The code is running locally to the production server. The code cannot open the site, whether the site is newly-created or copied from the development server. The user running the code has administrative rights on the site. The user running the code can log into the site using a browser on the production server and can manage the site from that browser. Server hardware: dual Xeons, 6 Gbytes RAM. Newly-installed. Server software: Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 plus critical hotfixes from Microsoft Update, SQL Server 2005 Standard SP1, WSS3.0 x64 (from download site). All accounts used are domain accounts. I'm not aware of any oddities in the domain setup - it's worked fine for several years and hasn't given us any errors. However, this is the first R2 server in the domain. A successful resolution would allow the code above to open and use the SPSite, or would give alternative code that allowed us to open and use the SPSite. I suspect a configuration error, but I can't find it! All ideas are welcome. - Peter Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57108

    - pre-populating a custom document library in wss v3, via onet.xml is this possible Hi, I am using wss v3 and I am trying to prepopulate a document library when a site is provisioned by modifying onet.xml. I guess the first question is, is this possible? As there appears to be no event I can tap into and then use the object model.... so assuming it is... The way i have tried to do this (but failed!) is create an instance of my document library in the configuration tags of the onet.xml. So in onet.xml Within the <configuration> block I instantiate my custom made document library feature <List FeatureId="<guid in here>" Type="9999" Title="mylist" Url="$Resources:core,shareddocuments_Folder;/mylist" Name="mylist" QuickLaunchUrl="$Resources:core,shareddocuments_Folder;/mylis t/AllItems.aspx"> </List> Note: it doesnt appear on my quick launch bar either, so any ideas appreciated :) Then I add a module section, which i believe will provision the file into my document library, I maybe wrong?? <Modules> <Module Name="Default" RootWebonly="False" List="9999" Url="$Resources:core,shareddocuments_Folder;/mylist" SetupPath="LAYOUTS\mydocs" Path="Template\LAYOUTS\mydocs"> <File Url="mydoc.doc" Type="GhostableInLibrary" /> </Module> It doesnt work and when i examine the log files I get the following errors 88y1 Medium No document templates uploaded for list "Mylist" -- none found for list template "9999". 88yz Medium Creating default modules at URL "http://<server path details here but removed for posting>" 72ix Medium Not enough information to determine a list for module "Default". Assuming no list for this module 88z3 High #20015: Cannot open "Shared Documents/mylist/AllItems.aspx": no such file or folder. (Can anyone give me an example piece of code that adds a document i.e. a word doc or a power point doc, into a custom document library at site provision time, of this all the ones in msdn and in blogs are to do with master pages or lists, not document libraries) Any help greatly appreciated, im new to wss, so if anything is completely wrong I apologise just need some helping out. I appreciate i shouldnt edit the onet.xml directly but at the moment im doing a proof of principle. I saw an article that did this with a picture gallery http://thingsthatshouldbeeasy.blogspot.com/ but no examples of document libraries... thanks brad Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57096

    - Usage Analysis setup: The virtual server that is referenced here is not in the config database. Good afternoon all, While attempting to enable Usage Analysis Processing from SharePoint Central Administration, I receive the error noted above after enabling logging and enabling usage analysis processing. There doesn't appear to be a method of selecting a virtual server to apply this to, although there is only one virtual server in this SharePoint installation. After returning to the administration page for setting up this option, however, the previously checked settings are still enabled. Does the virtual server error described tell me that usage analysis is still not enabled although the options are still checked? Did I miss a step in the setup? It seems like a pretty simple item to enable. Thanks and best regards, Chris Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57089

    - Permission Problem Do I need to set any permissions outside of Sharepoint (WSS 3.0) or should I have everything I need right there in the Sharepoint interface? I was assuming the latter, but I've run into a problem. Users (including site owners) can't view certain parts on child sites (like the logo) and are prompted to log in three times for every page. After logging in 3 times--or even canceling the log in request--they get the required access to the page, though the logo still doesn't display. As domain users they shouldn't need to log in at all; authentication should be automatic. I narrowed it down to a file permission problem. I added Domain Users to the WSS_WPG group on the WSS server and now everything works correctly for everyone. (I chose WSS_WPG because it already has read/list/execute) on the root web folder.) But this doesn't seem right. I can't find any documentation that says I should have to fiddle with machine-level permissions. Was this the right thing to do? Should I create a separate group that gives read-only permission to the web folder? Or is there another way to make this work?

    - assign master page to custom site definition during v2 to v3 upgra I'm currently in the process of trying to upgrade a v2 custom site definition to WSS v3. I have created a custom master page that I want to reference in the new v3 custom site definition as part of the upgrade process. Newly created sites using the new site definition reference the custom master page correctly but sites that have been upgraded do not. I need to be able to reference the new master page and also set the custommasterurl property to the correct master page during the upgrade process. I would expect that this should be done via my custom upgrade schema xml file but I don't know where I can specify these config changes based on the available elements to the microsoft.sharepoint.upgrade namespace. Any ideas, thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks, Marty Tag: Setting up a list that automatically notifies "owners" of a new action Tag: 57080

    - WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0 Data Migration I'am trying to export several link lists from WSS 2.0 to WSS 3.0. In WSS 3.0 i created a link list with subfolders. I convert the data using the spreadsheet view and then cut and paste. This works good, exept if i paste the data into a subfolder of the link list in WSS 3.0. The data always appears in the rootfolder of the list. Is there a way around this behaviour? Thanks for your help.

    - Usermanagement with groups (WSSv3) Dear WSS.v3 users, I'm trying to solve a customer implementation situation using WSS.v3 without resorting to customization. I think it's possible, but can't get my head around the best method. This is the case: - Customer x has many committees - Each committee needs to get a WSS site - A person can have access to multiple committees (and also to multiple WSS sites) - Customer uses a standalone, internet facing server for hosting. - Customer needs to be able to add / change users themselves (not necessarily groups) in WSS So there you have it, classic security situation: users need to be in usergroups, each usergroup needs to have a WSS role and site access. Assigning multiple groups to a user grants access rights to multiple WSS sites. Normally i would say: use active directory --> add windows AD group to WSS site --> done. However, in this case the customer wants (needs) to be able to add and change users themselves, within the WSS environment. And they don't want to add users to sites in WSS, but transparantly at the user level (figures). So, they need to be able to add a user and then assign them to the correct groups. As far as i can see with account creation mode this is not possible, it's still at WSS site level. Anyone have any idea how to solve this? Thanx!

    - Multiple Top Level Domains in WSS 3.0 I am trying to figure out the best way to accomplish the following. Architecture: WSS 3.0 Server (named SERVER) SQL Server (Different physical box) Current Setup: http://server.domain.com is my default web application using port 80 it allows anonymous connections and uses NTLM for authentication. I want to add: https://server2.domain.com with Anonymous access and .NET Forms Based Authentication on the same box. If I try and add a new application using WSS Admin, it will not let me create a site using port 80. If I specify a different port, it creates the site with the following format: http://SERVER:port Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All,

I have been assigned a new mini project at work, and I am trying
to determine how I set up the following within Sharepoint 2003.

Requirements:-

I need a list, which contains things such as "Action ID" ,
"Description", "Raised by", "Owner". The intention is for users to
raise a new "Action", and for the action owner to be automatically
notified of the request. (Saves manual intevention)

What is the best way of achieving this?

Regards
Matt
