    - alerts not working on 1 sub site Hi, I am finding the user alerts are not working on one site in my sharepoint site. They work great on the parent site and other sites that I create, and used to work on this sub site but have suddenly stopped working. When setting up the alert you get the message to say it is set up but no actual alerts come through. Any one have any ideas? Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60528

    - Alerts for surveys Hi, We have WSS 3.0 configured with a survey that people are logging in and using. Upon completing the survey we would like an email sent out to the person who completed the form, however we seem to be having some issues with this. Firstly, we have set the permissions to allow people to only see their own survey results, and now we can not set up any alerts. Secondly, after changing the permissions to allow people to see all responses (temporarily whilst we test the email functionality), the options for the alert appears to notify you whenever anyone submits a survey. Does anyone have anything similar set up or any ideas how we can achieve this without having to allow people to view everyone elses survey results and notify them when other people have submitted a survey response.

    - IIS Web servers / SSL / Single Sign-On Hi, we have three servers (one with an dedicated Active Directory, one with Windows Sharepoint Services + SQL 2005 and the last with Reporting Services). The Windows Sharepoint Services is published on the Internet with the URL https://portal.customer.org (the certifiate used comes from a root authority installed on the dedicated domain controller). The homepage on the Windows Sharepoint Services is composed of several webpart and especially the reporting services webpart. As this webpart is displayed through an IFRAME, we had to publish the reporting services web server on the internet too (so we have https://bi.customer.org). The result is not very good as when a customer is accessing the Windows Sharepoint Services, he has to authentificate two times (one time for the https://portal.customer.org and another time for getting access to https://bi.customer.org). We added both sites on the trusted sites zone but he has no effect. Of course, we didn't had this problem when reporting services was installed with Windows Sharepoint Services on the same server (as /Reports and /ReportServer was accessed by https://portal.customer.org). However, we had to split the services on two separate servers because we had some performances during the cubes processing. Is there a solution to bypass the second authentication request ? As we are authenticated on the first server (https://portal.customer.org, why the information is not returned to the second server (https://bi.customer.org) as both servers are using the same Active Directory ? Is this because we are using SSL (this could be a security feature to block the "automatic login with current username and password" option in Internet Explorer when browsing SSL web sites). Very thanks for your answers. Thierry Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60515

    - need help restoring search databases I moved my server and restored to a new one, all works but the search. I am using WSS 3.0. Someone on the board told me all I had to do was delete my search databases, drop them from SQL, delete them, and restart the search service to recreate them. Problem is I dont know how to do all that SQL stuff so I can delete them. They are in use and even if I stop services they are still in use? Second, will the search recreate the database after I delete them or do I have to manually create a search database and re-add it to SQL? And how if so? Help please, thanks Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60508

    - ApplicationTemplateCore install Hello, In SharePoint Services 3.0 (which is working fine), I attempted to install the ApplicationTemplateCore.wsp following the ReadMe file. When I got to the point - stsadm -o deploysolution -name ApplicationTemplateCore.wsp -alllowdeployment -immediate - I received the following response; The timer job for this operation has been created, but it will fail because the administrative service for this server is not enabled. If the timer job is scheduled to run at a later time, you can run the jobs all at once using stsadm.exe -o execadmsvcjobs. To aoid this problem in the future, enable the Windows SharePoint Services administrative service, or run your operation throught the STSADM.exe command line utility. My question is where do I go to start the Windows SharePoint Services administrative service? I can not find it in the services console.

    - Moving site to new server Hello, we moved a site using Microsoft Sharepoint Services to an new server (backup&restore) a few months ago. This worked very well and the systems runs fine without any problems but one. The notification-emails still point to the old server, so they contain dead links only. I did not find any setting to change this, so I post here. Where/how do I change the baselink for the notificationemails from sharepoint? Thank you!

    - Best Practices for Site Governence Does anyone have any recommendations on best practices for site governance? I am looking for things like: - how many site collection owners should there be? at least two? No more than ???? - What is the recommended number of sites one individual should be the owner of - How should I keep track of permissions on my site if I allow custom permissions on everything - sites, subsites, webparts, documents, etc. - Should everyone be able to create groups? - Should the # of groups allowed to be created be limited for a site collection? - Should groups be used all the time? If not when is it better to give users the permission individually - etc. I am rolling WSS 3.0 out on an enterprise level and am trying to gather some information on what has worked for others. I have my thoughts on these issues and others but was hoping to hear what rules and guidelines others have used when giving access to lots of users.

    - WSS 3.0/MOSS with SSRS 2005 Installation Issue Hello, In the past, I had installed SSRS 2005 prior to Service Pack 2 by setting up SQL Server, not configuring SSRS, installing SharePoint, adding two excluded managed paths for /reports and /reportserver, and then configuring SSRS. With the introduction of SSRS SharePoint integration mode, I don't know if this is still the preferred method. However, in my most recent installation, this managed path exclusion was not done and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 was installed, which seemed to work correctly until rebooted and now all IIS sites only report "Service Unavailable." Can you please provide me some pointers of how to recover this situation and the best practices to follow for this scenario in the future (ex. use SSRS SharePoint integration mode or not)? Thanks for your assistance with this issue. Justin Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60475

    - Design Question - Linking to Documents in Libraries Across Sites I have a site with subsites - all in one site collection. I have a couple document libraris in the master site from which I would like to link documents in the subsites. I'd rather not use a standard URL link.

    - MOSS 2007 + Forefront=Broken E-mail Enabled Libraries? As soon as I install Microsoft Frontend Security for Sharepoint on my Sharepoint 2007 config (which works fine) mail enabled libaries stop working with the error: "OWSTIMER.EXE (0x0950) Windows SharePoint Services E-Mail 6874 Warning An error occurred while attempting to create an attachment for an item sent via e-mail. " I have looked all over the web and nobody seems to be able to get this working, there are a few workaround but they then cause more problems. I can find no patch to fix the issue. In my opinion this means that this product is broken, e-mail enabled libaries are a key feature of MOSS 2007 for Forefront to break them as soon as it is installed is annoying. As soon as I remove Forefront Security for Sharepoint everything works again. As I'm stuck with Forefront (already bought) and the Forefront CAL's is there any way to make it work with e-mail enabled libaries?

    - Need help with site re-organizaton I have a WSS 3.0 site with about 10 main sites that match to departments in the company, Development, Federal Sales, Commerical Sales, Backoffce, IT, etc, etc. Many of the sites have sub-sites like Backoffice has accounting, hr, benefits, etc. All have unique permissions and not inherited from parent so we can control exactly who can see what. We just re-org and now I am being asked if I can put some of those site under a new highlevel site called Operations. So I need to move backoffice, it, pmo, under Operations. Any easy way to do this? Manually I could recreate and move the shared documents easy. I have no idea if I can move things like tasks, lists, links, discussions, etc. Help!

    - MI5 Persecution: Stasi 21/4/96 (16179) Subject: Chief Constable Alderson Condemns "Stasi" MI5 Newsgroups:uk.misc,uk.politics,uk.media,uk.legal,soc.culture.british Organization: Toronto Free-Net Summary: Keywords: John Alderson, former Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall, had the following to say about the expansion of the Security Service's powers, in a recent magazine article; "It is fatal to let the secret service into the area of ordinary crime. MI5 is not under the same restraints as the police. They infiltrate organisations, people's jobs and lives. They operate almost like a cancer." "At the moment the acorn of a Stasi [the former East German communists' secret service] has been planted. It is there for future governments to build on." The message is clear. Criminal subversion and criminal harassment by an unpoliced minority not subject to the law, "infiltration of people's jobs and lives" is with us today. 16179 Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow...

This in itself dos not suggest that the police have it in for you. The old bill operates on extremely tight spending limits forced on them by that pillock Michael Howard, and without evidence, they often have higher priorities than chasing something that cannot go to court. I doubt that the police are actually being leant on, but they probably realise that if they looked into this, they would be leant on hard. The met always stays away from anything that looks like it has Defence, Security or secret service interest already, because they realise that they are below these government agencies in the general pecking order. This attitude was made clear in a TV show where a left wing comedian heckled some aristocratic Tory candidate in a local election. The police officer gave the comic a ticking off, even though you could see that this young copper sympathised with the comedian, and regarded the Tory as an upper-crust wanker. He said, and I quote "I'm giving you the ticking off and not him because he's a Lord and I'm a Police Constable." If I walked into my local nick and complained that MI5 were snooping on me, they would show me the door without even looking at my evidence, because that bored desk seargant with only five years to go before he retires doesn't want to start fucking about with somebody who has incurred the wrath of Stella Rimington. He would rather deal with the lost dogs and driving licence producers, eat his cheese and pickle sandwiches and piss off home at the end of his shift than have some high ranking spook having a go at his boss and getting him a bollocking. In short, you have earned much sympathy but little surprise. Just remember that saying about the enemy of your enemies.

I think the police know well what's going on. It is up to them to do something about it. They know I've made a complaint at a police station.

In this case I think it is 'high-ranking' police officers who are aware of the persecution, they know a complaint has been made, and they're doing nothing. What is more, I don't think there is anything I can do that would make them take action, both because they may be being 'leant on' and through the wider view that it could be deleterious to the state to have a persecution by state organs exposed. They're wrong in taking that point of view, because sooner or later this will all out anyway, and they it will be n years of police inaction (n>=6) that will be questioned. > >In short, you have earned much sympathy but little surprise.

Because ... >So why didn't they just shoot you dead? >It would have been a lot cheaper. I think there are two reasons nobody has taken physical action as opposed to verbal; a) A lot of people "know". Perhaps you the reader might not know, but lots of people in the media etc do. Remember, I was born in the UK and lived there until a couple of years ago. I don't think these people would condone state-sponsored murder of someone who might be seen on a good day as one of their own. b) Rather than doind anything directly, they're going for spying, verbal harassment, media harassment, every form of persecution short of the physical. Because as soon as anything turns physical, the police become involved; and unless it turns physical, the police can shrug and say 'not our problem'. So they persecute you and try to get you to react, either by hitting one of them (in which case I clearly find myself in the wrong as far as the police are concerned), or by trying to harm myself (in which case they can pretend they weren't responsible). It's a pretty unproductive form of harassment actually, because if you don't react then they're wasting they're time. Or perhaps they're just cheap bullies and trying to wreck someone's life, without any ulterior motive? 13151 Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60351

The result, Mike Corley will be gratified to hear, was that all users of the college system were prevented from using email. I suspect that there is no stopping Mike Corley. If mail is automatically returned to him, he will return it back to you tenfold. If he is thrown off his account, as he surely will be, he will find another one. I do not care whether Mike Corley has an email account or not. It is a matter of supreme indifference to me whether his fanciful account of persecution is aired or not. If he thinks that he has been persecuted by M15 and Chris Tarrant, then that is a matter for him. But there is a world of difference between repeatedly spamming usenet - which is unacceptable - and setting up a Web Site containing his post, which is entirely acceptable. Then it will be possible to choose whether or not to partake of his fantasy. However although I would not like to see the censorship of posts because they demonstrate evidence of mental illness, I suspect that Mike Corley will inevitably be censored by his ISP following a number of complaints of usenet abuse and mailbombing. ---- David Toube Lecturer in Law QMW, University of London WWW: http://www.qmw.ac.uk/~ugtl027/index.html David Boothroyd's British Elections Home Page WWW: http://www.qmw.ac.uk/~laws/election/home.html 11637 Tag: Showing an initiation form for an automatic workflow... Tag: 60349

Hello,

What I'm looking to do is create an initiation form that displays for
a workflow that is initiated automatically, as opposed to the user
clicking Workflows from the item drop down. I've worked with ASP.NET
association and initiation forms with no problems, but they were
always user-initiated. I tested one by selecting the checkbox to
start a workflow when a new item was added. The initiation form did
not display and I received an error.

This all makes me think that it isn't possible, so I may have to go
the EventReceiver route, but I honestly don't know if that will solve
my problem, either. Any suggestions or input would be great!

Thanks,
Gary
