As for the rest: To clarify, a solution is a collection of features that you install onto a SharePoint farm. Once you have your solution file (eg whatever.wsp) you install it by running the stsadm command addsolution (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263162.aspx). You can run this on a server that has central admin on it. Because you are installing a solution it will automatically install each feature in the solution onto every web front end on the farm. When you create a feature you can set the scope for the feature to Web, Site, WebApplication or Farm. Look at this link to see what elements in a feature can be scoped at different levels: (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb861828.aspx). A custom action can be scoped at any of these levels. Why do you want to copy the files manually when you can run a simple command line to do it properly for you? If you were to go down the path of installing individual features that were not wrapped up in a solution you would have to copy the files to their destination manually, and then run a command on each WFE to install the feature, but solutions remove that requirement. I believe that installing a solution will do an iis reset automatically for you. Sombody please correct me here if I am wrong. Other things you should know: Once you have installed the solution that means it is available in Central Admin. You still need to deploy the solution to sites. This effectively makes the features inside the solution available to the areas you deploy it do. You can deploy the solution either through stsadm deploysolution (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262459.aspx), or from Central AdminOperationsSolutions Management. Hope this helps.

I have the VSeWSS for VS 2008 installed. - Do I install on the application server or (one of) the web front ends? - Can I set the scope to Site? - Is there anything preventing me from just copying the files to their destination manually? - Does this require an IIS reset? - Is there anything else I should know?

RE: [OzMOSS] [listserver] List Posting Error Notification
Matthew, No one wants to jump ship. We simply want to limit the problems and return stability. It's a gross understatement to suggest there has only been one issue, unless of course the same one recurs with high frequency and is responsible for all the others. It seems that some people have been lucky but many others, like myself, have had nothing but problems since subscribing. I try to put my inherent paranoia aside when receiving the you are not subscribed messages. :) If it assists in debugging, the problems I am receiving are as follows: Problem: Can't post to list. Various errors. Affected: Usually affects everyone. Frequency:Intermittent Solution:Resubscribing sometimes does the trick. Problem: Read receipts and/or Out of Office replies. Affected: All Frequency:Constant Solution:Server-side filtering and unsubscribe (with message) those responsible. Problem: MIME types and multi-part messages garbled Affected: Most Frequency:Constant Solution:Enable and properly configure mime-types. Limitation of list software? Client-side email software can also be the cause. Problem: Outages (server or otherwise) Affected: All Frequency:Intermittent Solution:Change host? Account payment? I appreciate that this list is not the only one to be affected by these problems and that some might occasionally be unavoidable. But it's also just possible that moving to a proven platform and solution might rectify many of these.

RE: [OzMOSS] [listserver] List Posting Error Notification
Hear hear! Can I recommend ozMOSS-dev, ozMOSS-design and ozMOSS-install as a starting ground? I’m sure there are more but ITPRO seems a little unspecific (no offence Ishai!). I’d be happy to co-manage the design list. Perhaps a page on ozMOSS where member could provide details such as role, specialty skills, blog and site URL would also be a nice resource. Similarly, these details could be added to a registered user’s forum account. However that might also mean moving the discussion board to something more usable too. I can strongly recommend Simple Machine forums. Can I just state (if it’s not already clear) that this is not a hijacking attempt of any sort. I love and support ozMOSS and have found the advice and solutions provided on this list to be exceedingly useful on more than one occasion.

Hi Aaron,
That's an easy one. I get it all the time. :)
It happens when you restore WCM sites to another location. The Page Layout
source URL is not updated to reflect the new location.
There are several painful options I tried before finally coming across this:
http://stsadm.blogspot.com/2007/08/fix-publishing-pages-page-layout-url.html
There's also a standalone script here:
http://blog.thekid.me.uk/archive/2007/08/20/fixing-page-layout-urls-after-importing-a-publishing-site-in-sharepoint.aspx
Either one should work well for you. Hopefully this bug will be fixed before
too long. It's a right pain.

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: create SharePoint development same as production site
Having now tried several tests through UI (and received only errors) and STSADM
(and seen the hell that breaks loose afterwards) I've gone down Uzma's path of
only backing up individual sites and restoring to dev as required for testing
and development. Hardly ideal.
With publishing sites (and quite possibly WSS w/ publishing enabled) this still
requires running custom STSADM commands and other fixes to correct page layout
paths (break page settings), CQWP queries, hundreds of hard-coded links within
web part fields or pages (because MOSS wouldn't allow a relative URL!) and
more. And let's not forget about the lack of support for tasks and workflows.
I cannot get over the sheer amount of hard paths and absolute URLs that MOSS
uses. That simple environment variables or tokens for {siteroot}, {site},
{_layout} etc., are not used simply amazes me.
It's insulting enough to pay this much for a product and then be left with a
command line tool for all these operations, but to the have this many problems
with something as simple as a backup and restore operation...
Why would it have be so hard to create a web-based GUI for theses (and other)
essential daily tasks that allowed a bit more control over the various
parameters and managed syntax while also providing a Test mode for the less
brazen?
Thank God for the generous and talented souls out there who have filled this
black hole of omissions with their own tools and scripts.

You will find those errors during backup/restore. So, it will be clear if OOTB
backup works or not.
I would not recommend using STSADM -o export/import till you have no problems
with UI tools
There are no issues with export/import command, but it's very error-proned
approach, and you should know how to do it correctly.

Be aware that backup/restore of MOSS content databases between server farms are
not fully supported! Official documentation of this support limitation is
currently in the works. The supported way to transfer content between server
farms is to use STSADM -o export/import or content deployment. Backup/restore
is only supported for the same server farm

There is no issues if you restore you farm backup to single SharePoint

restore your backup there and set up SQL mirroring.
There is no OOTB way to backup content selectively and omit some files.
What you can try to do is to copy your content into new content DB and remove
content of doc libraries there

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: create SharePoint development same as production site
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I've responded inline but think I need
to stress here that these are not just my problems. Neither are the problems
limited to what's discussed here. This is, after all, just one small facet of
administration. Everywhere you look on the web people are complaining about
these and other issues, as is evidenced by the arrival of so many third party
apps and tools to fill the void.
Ø Having now tried several tests through UI (and received only errors) and
STSADM (and seen the hell that breaks loose afterwards) I've gone down Uzma's
path of only backing up individual sites and restoring to dev as required for
testing and development. Hardly ideal
What Errors? Did you deploy the existing features to the new environment,
ensure all DLL's are in the right spot/place, etc?
Trying to perform a simple backup on a single web app I get the following:
The backup/restore job failed. In order to rerun the backup/restore the timer
job must be deleted from the Timer Job Definitions page. Failure Message: The
backup job failed. For more information, see the error log that is located in
the backup directory.
The essential log info follows. Just to confirm I am logged into the server and
CA as the SharePoint Setup account and am only trying to backup our primary web
app, not SSO or anything else. Looks like this account doesn't have sufficient
access but do you think any of our sys admins can tell what account does?
Unfortunately they're even more clueless as to the inner machinations of MOSS
than I am.

I'd do a sitecollection backup but it's too large for that as I can't exclude
the doc library content. (My main gripe.) Being unable to change the regional
settings in CA in a supported way is another. I mean did someone just forget to
include the link to regionalsetng.aspx? :)
Ø With publishing sites (and quite possibly WSS w/ publishing enabled) this
still requires running custom STSADM commands and other fixes to correct page
layout paths (break page settings), CQWP queries, hundreds of hard-coded links
within web part fields or pages (because MOSS wouldn't allow a relative URL!)
and more. And let's not forget about the lack of support for tasks and
workflows.
Sounds more like a issue of someone has instead of using relative paths, used
hard paths, Hardly a fault of MOSS. Could you give an example of where MOSS has
a hardcoded URL? As I know that this is something they wish to address in
upcoming versions.
For layout pages these paths are not set by an end-user. We're talking about
internal paths to content in the master page gallery set by SharePoint. This
will actually prevent editing Page Settings for any page in the collection.
As for other paths, I'm referring to a number of fields (e.g. Send To...) which
do not allow a relative path. Of all the fields in SharePoint to have
validation applied, they go and stick it the ones that don't require it. I'm
also referring to breakages within the Content Query Web Part (and others based
on it) that require reconfiguring, especially if they've been in any way
customised.
There are also others that escape me now.
Ø I cannot get over the sheer amount of hard paths and absolute URLs that MOSS
uses. That simple environment variables or tokens for {siteroot}, {site},
{_layout} etc., are not used simply amazes me.
~Site, ~SiteCollction, /_layouts (accessible from any path or folder in the
URL, i.e. ~Site/_layouts/page.aspx)
As per a number of recent posts on this it's been established that none of
these can be used, neither in any of the locations mentioned above, nor in any
useful way within a layout page. A choice example follows:
a
href=~sitecollection/SiteDirectory/SitesList/NewForm.aspx?Source=~sitecollection%2FSiteDirectory%2FPages%2Fcategory%2EaspxAdd

If so, then it would seem the necessary JavaScript is getting called and you have the requisite placeholders. Also, have you tested in Firefox or any other browser?

Wow - that has lost me HOURS in the past (about 6 hours if I remember
correctly). A designer decided to attach a style to the Form tag - big no no.
I remember trawling through a custom stylesheet trying to narrow the cause down
and it was a style on the form tag.
This usually happens because designers are ignorant of ASP.NEThttp://ASP.NET
- ie. they are not aware that nested directly below the Body tag we need a Form
tag with runat=server to make the page work in ASP.NEThttp://ASP.NET and so
server controls work.
So, instead of wrapping their cut-up/design in one form tag immediately below
the Body tag they instead use Form tags within the page for something like the
search box, or for a custom form in the cut-up. They then add styles to the
Form tag in their CSS so they can style that specific element
You then implement this cut-up in SharePoint (or any ASP.NEThttp://ASP.NET
master page in fact) and you get weird stuff happening !!!
The biggest problem is trying to explain this all to a designer, it goes
straight over their heads - they deny any wrongdoing and just blame SharePoint.

Thanks for all the help, finally I found that's because
html form {

Okay.
Hm...let's use Reflector to see what that Apply CSS does to your site. I'm
afraid it's setting up a particular property that is used by your page/control
that then causes problems with the picture library web-part.
Have you checked that the styles in your custom style sheet are custom (ie.
you're not overriding OOTB classes)? And if you are overriding any OOTB class,
have you checked that you haven't set the visibility into hidden? Setting a
control into hidden mode will only cause problem because the HTML ID may be
used/referenced by other controls.
Apart from that I can't think of anything else of why this problem occurs. I
always do branding and never had this problem before.
Cheers,
Tommy

OK I'm afraid that since it's a .NET control it will render a different text if
you set the master page using GUI if you know what I mean. Since now you switch
the master page then that control will render your custom CSS but not the
CORE.CSS. The best way to check what's renderd is by go to browser - View
Source then you can see if CORE.CSS is still referenced by your page.
I personally wouldn't recommend you doing it. I will normally have another
reference on my master page to go to my custom CSS and I will you master page
switcher instead of CSS switcher.

[OzMOSS] Picture Library woes
Hi all, I've spent days on this problem and can't seem to find a solution apart from resorting to the default.master for application pages. The selection checkbox column is not displaying in any of our Picture Libraries. I've tried re-enabling all possible placeholders but the problem persists. I've also ensured the required JavaScript is getting called. Running a diff against the active source for our custom master and the default, the only pertinent changes are that the web part ID differs, WebPartWPQ2 and WebPartWPQ3 respectively. And that the checkboxes get an inline style of visibility:hidden as opposed to visibility:visible. If it's of any relevance at all, the numbering of the list columns is also whacky and the Name (linked to display items) column always re-checks itself when you go to the modify view page. We're also using a custom provider for the horizontal navigation. [cid:image001.jpg@01C9489A.F9962560] This is doing our collective heads in (mine and those of our third party developers). Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated as losing the multiple Actions functionality is far from ideal.

After much perseverance you'll be pleased to know that I finally sorted it out. PlaceHolderLeftActions is most definitely required. What took a while to work out is that it's placement above PlaceHolderMain is also essential. The only thing I can determine is that because it displays the selected image preview, there must be something in a JavaScript class somewhere that checks for its existence before setting the selection checkbox column to visible. PlaceHolderBodyRightMargin must also exist (even if hidden) for the DispForm.aspx page not to return an error when a thumbnail is clicked.

Hi Daniel, It would be enormously impractical to have to create a content type or form for each one and then add them to one (or several) libraries within SharePoint. We already have our base content types (more than enough for my liking as I'm the only designer/developer). This is about storing existing dotx, pptx and xlst files (of which we have hundreds) within a document library rather than the traditional network drive location.

[OzMOSS] SharePoint Advanced Search query options
Hi all, In our current installation of MOSS the Advanced Search web part only displays 'Equals' and 'Does not equal' in the property restrictions dropdown. I've been told that this is OOTB yet our old POC site which uses an unpatched MOSS install displays the following dropdown which includes the 'Contains' and 'Does not contain' query options making it infinitely more user friendly as it doesn't rely on exact terms. [cid:image002.jpg@01C9457F.29B942A0] I don't think this is just for looks either. The page's JavaScript supports this and includes the extra terms in the array. var arrDTOps = new Array(); arrDTOps[0] = new Array(); arrDTOps[0][0] = 'Contains'; arrDTOps[0][1] = 'Does not contain'; arrDTOps[0][2] = 'Equals'; arrDTOps[0][3] = 'Does not equal'; Anyone know if/when this was changed or if we've been given a bum steer? All the supporting documentation I've read about search states that it uses freetext and LIKE in the queries. Does enabling stemming make any difference?

The only way I could see this being implemented, is having a custom feature in the context menu and create a menu item Open new Instance of this document or something simular, However this would require custom development. Basically mimicking the Download a Copy, However with some smarts to make it copy the document in the document library and then open that one instead. -DB From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Thursday, 13 November 2008 10:12 AM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] Word template library Hi Daniel, It would be enormously impractical to have to create a content type or form for each one and then add them to one (or several) libraries within SharePoint.

I've been told that this is OOTB yet our old POC site which uses an unpatched MOSS install displays the following dropdown which includes the 'Contains' and 'Does not contain' query options making it infinitely more user friendly as it doesn't rely on exact terms. [cid:image001.jpg@01C94584.69C186A0] I don't think this is just for looks either. The page's JavaScript supports this and includes the extra terms in the array. var arrDTOps = new Array(); arrDTOps[0] = new Array(); arrDTOps[0][0] = 'Contains'; arrDTOps[0][1] = 'Does not contain'; arrDTOps[0][2] = 'Equals'; arrDTOps[0][3] = 'Does not equal'; Anyone know if/when this was changed or if we've been given a bum steer?

RE: [OzMOSS] Repeated authentication requests
Hi Sezai, As you suspected I am not receiving the same errors when browsing the site on the server hosting Central Admin. There's no proxy at present but we're planning on going that route once we're up and running. Using Firebug from a remote machine I get pretty random results, as you stated, with lots of 401s on css and image files located in /layouts/.. . So...I set the IIS authentication settings for the default authentication provider for the intranet app to use both NTLM and basic authentication and oddly enough I get no more errors and no more prompting for username and password.

I've seen this happen in the past - when running the page through an analyser tool such as Fiddler or Firebug I noticed different images/resources hitting issues with authentication - and it was different files on each page load. Are you going through a proxy such as ISA server? When viewing the same pages directly on the server do you get login pop-ups too? or only when accessing the site from other machines? Try switching the site to use BASIC AUTH to see if the pop ups still occur - if they don't then it means authentication info on requests is being randomly dropped for some reason as the requests go through the network to get to the SharePoint server.

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Using static tokens for URLs within Layout Pages
Hi Sezai, Your suggestion works to a point but because this particular URL contains two instances of the domain root I'm still unable to get it to work. I have tried: % $SPUrl:~SiteCollection/SitesList/NewForm.aspx?Source=~SiteCollection%2FSiteDirectory%2FPages%2Fcategory%2Easpx% % $SPUrl:~SiteCollection/SitesList/NewForm.aspx?Source=%% $SPUrl:~SiteCollection%2FSiteDirectory%2FPages%2Fcategory%2Easpx% % $SPUrl:~SiteCollection/SitesList/NewForm.aspx?Source= $SPUrl:~SiteCollection%2FSiteDirectory%2FPages%2Fcategory%2Easpx% In all cases the second instance gets printed literally. Is it a limitation of the token that it is only recognised the first time? Is there a simple way to concatenate these? I can't believe I'm the only one who has a burning need to use a dynamic site root in common hyperlinks on Layout Pages. What are other people doing to achieve this?

Unless of course you're trying to configure the web part using its provided interface and want to filter on a custom content type for pages on another site. Then the CQWP just breaks and refuses to work again even after restoring the settings to default. Apparently people just accept this as a known limitation??

[OzMOSS] Some broken links after port change
Hi all, We recently had to change the port for our dev environment. Almost everything seems to have gone off without a hitch with the exception of a few broken links in master page controls. - Search form - My Site - My Links (sub links only) All point to the old port number. Is this a caching issue, or are absolute URLs set in some of the config files when these things were initially setup?

[OzMOSS] RE: Some broken links after port change
Quick update: although nothing is displayed in code view in SPD, when selecting a delegatecontrol a large range of properties become visible in the Tag Properties pane. I can see the PageUri here and have changed it to reflect the new port number but this also adds the value to the control in code view. e.g. SharePoint:delegatecontrol ControlId=GlobalSiteLink1 Scope=Farm runat=server PageUri=http://mydomain:999/_vti_bin/webpartpages.asmx; Is this the right way to go about changing these? I can't seem to find any other means through Central Administration and these hard coded changes are bound to get carried across to our production environment.

[OzMOSS] Runtime injection in HTML page source
Hi guys,
I'm just debugging some custom master and layout pages in an effort to
get them to validate and am curious about the following code that is
getting injected into the source at runtime.
It seems certain that the inline styles are being generated by the
horizontal nav placeholder (why?) but I've no idea where the additional
empty title tag is coming from. It's definitely not called twice in
the master/layout pages and I would dearly love its removal.

RE: [OzMOSS] Workflow Email Notifications
Using calculated columns you could achieve both (in a limited kind of way). Provided the naming convention is constant across your directory then you could use one or more text conversion formulas to strip the domain/ component. e.g.=RIGHT([ColumnName], LEN([ColumnName])-8) Will remove the first 7 characters from the value. DOMAIN\john.smith - john.smith You can also explicitly declare the format for a datetime field. e.g. =The date is: TEXT(Today,dd-mm-) You can obviously do a lot more with a VS workflow.

[OzMOSS] Another well-known SPD bug?
After much wasted time I've discovered that when inserting a DFWP into a
page where the data source is a subsite, SPD inserts the incorrect
WebURL for SelectParameters in DataSources.
The ListID value is correct but it uses {sitecollection} as the WebURL
which obviously results in an error.
Fortunately it's a breeze to correct ocne you know what's going on.
Has anyone else run into this? I can't seem to find a reference to it
anywhere.

[OzMOSS] Masterpage override
Hi, Another quick and possibly silly question. I'm beginning to get the feeling that the site collection I've been left with was based on the wrong site definition which is why I'm banging my head against a wall with the page scheduling issue (amongst others). It looks like it uses a Collaboration Portal as the root site. The Publishing Page content type (from which I understand my pages should be inheriting from) does not exist in my Site Content Type Gallery.

[OzMOSS] Page Scheduling - or - Am I going mad part II
I have searched high and low and found no comprehensive or detailed explanation on the topic of page scheduling. Does anyone have any idea how the scheduling start and end dates are supposed to work for publishing pages? According to the Page content type: The column templates from Page will be added to all Pages libraries created by the Publishing feature. However, despite having the Page content type associated with it, my Pages library does not include the Scheduling Start or End date columns and neither can they be added. Clearly these are items which you would like to set at page creation yet they don't appear as fields on any of the Page or Article layout pages. I have added them manually through SPD but am not convinced this is the right way to go (apart from the difficulty of hiding them from the published version). I'd also like the Scheduling End Date to be optional (or be able to set a default value) but this doesn't seem possible. All advice, pointers, URLs or irreverent tittering appreciated.

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Pre-configuring Web Part on ArticleLinks layout page
Hi Michael, Doesn't appear to be. I've wound up using a DataFormWebPart instead with a few XSL if/test statements to get what I wanted. I figured that there must be some sort of issue with adding web parts to publishing type pages? Either I continue to do silly things or touching pages in any way is a very delicate process indeed. I've added a summary and image caption to this page (first as new columns to the Article content type and then as richHTMLfield controls to the layout page). I've also added a custom style to ItemStyles.xml for the Summary Links publishing control. Pretty basic stuff. [see screenshot] Unfortunately I now have the problem that whenever I edit a published page (even if I make no changes!), I receive the very bland error: The Image Caption content area gets focus but God knows why. Certainly no more information in the affected sections is provided. Google yields little or nothing although this guy may be onto something - http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/justguy/archive/2008/08/13/checking-i f-a-publishing-page-is-in-edit-mode.aspx I've tried removing any custom and possibly offensive controls but it makes little difference except to put the focus somewhere else. Am happy to attach or paste the source for the page to anyone who is interested in seeing what new act of stupidity I may have performed. Regards, Paul NB: I have not lost all hope...yet.

RE: [OzMOSS] File size, doctype and icon columns?
Thanks Shirley, I read that somewhere in my travels but hadn't yet got that far. I'm still customising the exported web part by defining the columns in CommonViewFields as follows: property name=CommonViewFields type=string /DocIcon, Computed;FileSizeDisplay, Computed;File_x0020_Size, Lookup;File_x0020_Type, Text;URLNoMenu, Computed/property Perhaps this has been my mistake.

Hi Uzma, I've attempted what you suggested but have hit a couple of snags that I hope you can help with. Perhaps I'm missing the process of converting/creating an XSLT data view? The steps I've followed are: 1.Add all required columns to existing document library. 2.Open page for editing in SPD. 3.Insert new Data View. 4.Select existing doc library as data source. 5.Select required columns and insert selected fields as Single Item View (just to preview results). This gives me the following which shows the original doc library with my custom data view below. As you can see, the required columns are present and available but their display is not as expected. Looks like SP does some custom operations on these which aren't available when they're converted to a data view. To be expected I suppose.

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Associating Content Type with Task List
Could it be that you've set the boolean contentTypeAssociated = true
before your final if (!contentTypeAssociated) statement?
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf
Of Trevor Andrew
Sent: Monday, 4 August 2008 2:54 PM
To: listserver@ozMOSS.com
Subject: [OzMOSS] RE: Associating Content Type with Task List
Hi All,
I'm having some difficulties getting newly released and newly revised
versions of existing content types associated with a task list
correctly. The code I'm currently using, which is running in the context
of a workflow which is responsible for creating these custom tasks, is
below:
if
(!this.workflowProperties.TaskList.ContentTypesEnabled)
{
this.workflowProperties.TaskList.ContentTypesEnabled
= true;
}
SPContentTypeId newContentTypeId = new
SPContentTypeId(contentTypeIDString);
SPContentType newContentType =
workflowProperties.Site.RootWeb.ContentTypes[newContentTypeId];
bool contentTypeAssociated = false;
foreach (SPContentType contentType in
workflowProperties.TaskList.ContentTypes)
{
if (contentType.Name ==
awaitingResponseReviewTaskContentType.Name)
{
contentTypeAssociated = true;
break;
}
}
if (!contentTypeAssociated)
{
workflowProperties.TaskList.ContentTypes.Add(awaitingResponseReviewTaskC
ontentType);
}
The steps I follow are below:
* Delete all tasks from the task list
* Dissociate the custom task content type from the task list
* Delete all site columns associated with the custom task
content types on the task list
* Deploy the new content type as a feature, both site columns
and content types by
o Deactivating custom task content types feature
o Uninstalling custom task content types feature
o Deactivating custom site columns feature
o Uninstalling custom site columns feature
o Installing custom site columns feature
o Activating custom site columns feature
o Installing custom task content types feature
o Activating custom task content types feature
o Usual IISRESET etc
* During the running of a workflow, that creates these tasks,
the code above runs and re-associates what should be the new content
type.
What I seem to be observing however is that the programmatic association
is re-associating what appears to be the old content type, without the
changes. If after doing the deployment of the content type I
re-associate then with the task list through the task list setting UI,
the new content type gets associated correctly ... very odd
Can anyone see where I'm going wrong? Is the code above flawed?
Kind Regards,
Trevor Andrew

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Developing for MOSS/WSS with VS2008
Thanks again Rebecca, and Kirk. That's pretty much the conclusion I've come to. A couple of quick questions before we close this baby: * Our server is running on 64-bit architecture. I understand that having VS2008 on the same box means you can't deploy solutions. Would it make any difference to stick with 32-bit on the dev environment? * Do you develop a VM from scratch and use an empty MOSS environment, or is it better to take a snapshot of your live/staging environments to try to emulate this as best you can?

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Developing for MOSS/WSS with VS2008
Who would have believed there was no remote API?! And that 64-bit support for the Visual Studio 2008 Extensions isn't even in scope?! OK...I've setup my 32-bit Windows Server 2003 VM with MOSS (a basic site collection), SQL 2005, VS2008 and Extensions 1.2. Great! Now I'm able to launch VS2008 and create a new project (SharePoint Sequential Workflow) without errors. However after much Googling and online reading through other people's posts of misery, I still have a couple of questions: 1.How do I get my 32-bit development work from the VM to the 64-bit staging environment (which I understand is supported)? Am I expected to create a solution package for every little modification and then copy it across to that box, open it for testing, then deploy via Stsadm, object model of Central Admin? 2.Do I even need VS installed on the remote servers? I hardly see the point if workflow authoring is not supported. 3.Do I need to deploy my code and assemblies to every web front end manually or does this occur automatically when deploying a solution? Apologies if I'm not making any sense or just sounding terribly naïve. I'll also look into Hyper-V. Thanks Daniel.

I've got a problem where they're not consistent across the board. Some of them do not have the 'Modified' column available to sort when creating a view, and others do, which makes it impossible to sort by the modified date automatically.

I've got a problem where they're not consistent across the board. Some of them do not have the 'Modified' column available to sort when creating a view, and others do, which makes it impossible to sort by the modified date automatically. (See 2 attached images) I've tried creating a new calculated column using =[Modified] in the offending library, and get the message One or more column references are not allowed, because the columns are defined as a data type that is not supported in formulas. Creating a calculated column in the working library works perfectly. Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this?

RE: [OzMOSS] RE: Create timestamp for column
I'm hiding the column from the form view as I want to give it a unique name, i.e.: =[Employee Name] DATE(YEAR(Today),MONTH(Today),DAY(Today)) Unfortunately [Employee name] is a User lookup field and so can't be used in this way, I don't think. So, at present I have: =Leave request - TEXT(Today,dd-mm-) Which returns: Leave request - 17-07-2008 It's a great start but not ideal. I'd like to be able to get hh:mm:ss after the date (not sure how) and change Leave request - to the employee name. e.g. Paul Noone - 17-07-2007 11:54:28 Regards, Paul Online Developer, ICT CEO Sydney From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Caroline Specker (AU) Sent: Thursday, 17 July 2008 11:44 AM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: [OzMOSS] RE: Create timestamp for column Do you need to convert the date to a string?

The Today function doesn't appear to work and there doesn't seem to be a NOW equivalent or simple function to enter the seconds since epoch, or even a random number.

[OzMOSS] Permissions - at a loss
Hi all, I'm trying to manage permissions on a legacy MOSS site. I've added myself to the Farm Administrators (the only group available for adding users) through Central Admin as well as directly. I've also added myself directly to the Permissions list and applied Full Control, Design. However I'm still unable to view or manage certain groups (i.e. Owners) in the People and Groups screen of the site collection. I continue to receive the You do not have permission to view the membership of the group message. Do I need to physically add myself to the domain admin group in AD as well?

[OzMOSS] Diplay pages in hierarchy
Has anyone here managed to group pages into a hierarchy so that they display in tree view (navigation and breadcrumbs) in the manner of a traditional web site? I'm looking for a solution to port our existing website to a MOSS publishing site that doesn't involve creating subsites every time I want to create a hierarchy or grouping of pages, and it doesn't look like an OOTB one exists.

RE: [OzMOSS] Diplay pages in hierarchy
So, no then? :) Would the extra column really cause that much overhead? I can't help but feel that creating a subsite every time we want a hierarchy is ultimately going to have much more overhead than reading a custom column in a few hundred (or even thousand) pages. If only it was as simple as grouping the pages in subdirectories and having a bit of custom code do the rest. I can live with the breadcrumb trail using the Pages and even the subdir names as well. Bill: Your solution sounds very interesting if it works. I'm assuming this will be a server-side solution and not JavaScript based. Do you have a successful prototype that you're able to share? David: No, I was referring specifically to MOSS WCM sites only. As you've discovered WSS sites actually have nice, simple workarounds for this. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sezai KOMUR Sent: Wednesday, 9 July 2008 4:31 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] Diplay pages in hierarchy MOSS publishing sites intrinsically use subsites as a level in hierarchy with one pages library per subsite representing a grouping of pages. It's tough when you want to work outside of this structure as the SiteMapProviders are built/optimised to run off the above assumption. I like Bill's suggestion - you could add an extra site column to your page layouts and use that for extra grouping within one subsite. Then build all your menus to make use of that page field. You may find that such a solution could cause performance issues as you now need to read the extra field from EVERY page when building the nav - so the sitemap providers do not return all the data which you need to build the menu, as you now need to loop through every page and get the field value from its SPListItem object. But WSS guys who've built custom Nav controls will have experienced these issues as you don't have the same Navigation providers that MOSS does - there's many ways you can implement custom menus.
