    - Passing Multi Value Parameters to a SSRS Report Hi, I'm trying to figure out the best way to pass multi value parameters to an SSRS report. I've got WSS 3.0 set up with SSRS Integration. I was using the built in Report Viewer Web Part, and having users select parameter values in the parameter pane, but this seems to load somewhat slowly, and the drop down used to select the values doesn't provide enough screen space for the user to see the full text values of their selections. As a result, I'm looking at trying to build a web part to pass these parameters to the report. In testing, I've played around with the RegionFilterWebPart example that Microsoft provides on the MSDN site, but am having trouble getting that to actually work (plus, according to what I've read, I can't pass multi value parameters out of that web part). Does anyone have any ideas for how I can do this? Thanks! Tag: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start Tag: 67806

    - How to search SQL Server database from WSS site Hi! I have a wss site that displays some data from a SQL Server database. This database contains products, spare parts, descriptions, etc. This databased is not indexed by the WSS search service. How do I set it up so that a database on SQL Server is indexed by WSS Search Service? Thank you! -- Zaur Bahramov, MCP Tag: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start Tag: 67802

    - Sharepoint Search Service "stopping" I am having issues with the search service in WSS3 and keeping it running. The search service is currently in a "stopping" state and never actually stops. Rebooting the server takes care of the error for a while, but the service will stop functioning again the next day. Looking through the event logs the Timer service is also throwing a lot of errors related to the search service. stsadm command line commands will also not start or stop the service.

    - Locating .Net apps inside the Sharepoint IIS virtual server We have just started running WSS3.0 for our Intranet (http://intranet). We have several reports written with .NET (aspx pages) that are located on a different IIS server We need to have the URL's for the aspx pages to be http://intranet/reports These pages are not going to be elements within Sharepoint, we just want to use the Sharepoint server as a web server hosting the aspx files. So far we cannot get it to work because the webconfig of the Sharepoint server takes precedence and the aspx pages needs different settings. How do we get IIS/Sharepoint to exclude a folder? WSS 2.0 had a method to exclude a folder/path. WSS 3.0 does not have the same Thanks Mike Tag: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start Tag: 67794

The box that said "update all list columns based on this site column" was checked "yes". Then someone unchecked that box.

    - SharePoint Audit Data Table (dbo.AuditData) We have a heavy used site that has all auditing enabled (Site Actions, Site Settings, Modify All Site Settings, Site Collection Audit Settings, All items checked under Events to audit) This has caused the table dbo.AuditData in our WSS_WebApp_Content1 database to become very large. Currently is has 135,614,755 records and is 33.8 GB in size! I have seen other posts where info on this table has been requested, but nobody is responding. Some users thought that items were deleted out of it after 30 days, this is nottrue. We have items in it dating back more than 6 months. Here are my main questions: - Is there any risk to moving this data out of this table into an archival database? - If we uncheck events to audit, will it automatically remove the space? - Is there a way to automatically clear it after X days (without writing SQL jobs)? - How does this affect performance?

    - 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: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start 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.

    - 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?

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!

    - 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.

    - logon screen constantly popping I have a sharepoint server using Digest Authentication for Windows Servers. I am using this so that users do not have to enter their username in a <domain.name>\<username> format and it is more secure than basic authentication. The goal is to have people on the LAN logged in using domain accounts to automatically login when they try to open sharepoint. Failing that, if they could just login once. However, we are constantly getting login screens. In IIS I've increased the Connection time-outs to 65000 seconds and http keep alives are enabled. I can't find any other settings - how can I get this to work right? Tag: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start Tag: 67674

    - Companyweb Helpdesk from SBS 2003 to Windows 2003 Standard We had a massive failure of our production 2003 Small Business Server and I decided to change out infrastructure to multiple Windows 2003 domain controllers for greater resiliance and redundancy. The problem I have is that I do not know how to get the helpdesk we had on Companyweb on the old SBS server onto our Sharepoint installation on our new Windows 2003 server. We have hundreds of calls logged and no way of accessing them. All the files are iintact on the old hard drive ie inetpub directory etc. Does anyone know how I can create the same Helpdesk companyweb on my new server and merge the old data? Any help is greatly appreciated - I am nearing the end of my tether. Regards, David Tag: WSS 3.0 Workflow doesn't automatically start Tag: 67666

People who have only read access to the folder cannot see any files in that folder but they can see the general folder structure.

    - put_document and a column name "subject" For a while now, we've been using the RPC call put_document to upload files and various columns with meta-info. Everything works fine, but for some reason we cannot seem to upload information to any column with the name "subject". Part of the request: ... snip ... Subject;SR|Schema+voor+de+komende+dagen ... snip ... Part of the response ... snip ... <li>Subject <li>SW| ... snip ... Again, all other columns work fine, encoding works fine, etc. Any suggestion what could be wrong? Is subject a reserved name? Any workarounds? Is this documented anywhere?

    - Remote Access to SBS companyweb Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage! After installing windows SBS, setting up OWA etc. the companyweb did not work, I uninstalled & re-installed the IIS components & the companyweb came to like. However over the internet itâ??s possible to arrive @ the Welcome page & from there we can sign into the Remote Web Workplace, but itâ??s not possible to view the companyweb. I found an article (KB838429) & followed the instructions; no joy! The workaround failed, I return everthing to it's orininal state so as to start again. We have another domain set up on SBS & remote access to the companyweb is working fine, I have checked all the settings (that I can think of) & they are all seam to be the same on both domains, can anyone help me sort this out please?

Made a simple workflow that I want to fire when a user emails the Team
Discussion list. I have the workflow set to create a task. If I manually
launch it, it works. But it does automatically do it. I have both manual
and create when new item is added selected. I made the flow with Sharepoint
Designer. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

SharePoint Designer questions go to
microsoft.public.sharepoint.design_and_customization

However the very best place for (all) workflow questions is the

Thanks. After playing around and searching the web, I found the article on
how to allow the service/system account to trigger the workflow.
