RE: sharepoint search server express 2010
Yeah my understanding is that you can add a WFE, but the search service will only ever be one server. Assuming that's true, and given that many orgs who would invest in a multi-server farm would likely buy standard, there is little disincentive to not to Search server express. I have foundation clients running it (and used the previous version also) One warning - a client of mine really did a number on his farm with a botched install of Office Web Apps on it.

SPWebCollection Add Method
Hi all,
I'm trying to provision a subsite using this method and am stuck on the nLCID
parameter.
The API states a 32-bit GUID is required but I can't find one! :)
I want to inherit from the parent Site which uses English-AU but am not sure if
I'm getting it properly.
Will the following work?
if (currentPublishingSite.IsRoot)
{
using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Web.Url))
{
using (SPWeb web = siteCollection.OpenWeb())
{
//Inherit LCID from parent
uint webLCID = SPSite.Language;
// webUrl, Title, Description, LCID, Template, UniquePerms,
bConvertIfThere
using (SPWeb newSite =
siteCollection.RootWeb.Webs.Add(AboutUs, About Us, More information about
this site., webLCID, _siteTemplateNamePrefix, false, false))
{
// Perform additional customisations here
}
}
}

You should be able to use Convert.ToUInt32 on the LCID property, instead of
trying to convert to ToString() representation of the Locale.

RE: SPWebCollection Add Method
Thanks Joe. The following works nicely. :)
//Inherit LCID from parent
uint webLCID = Convert.ToUInt32(siteCollection.RootWeb.Locale.LCID);
Now I have one more small problem.
The Web site address /AboutUs is already in use.
Which is true, if you're talking about the web application root site
collection. However, I only want to get the parent site of the web I'm trying
to create. Looks like I'm heading too high up the hierarchy.
I'm currently creating the parent at a managed path teams/newsite. And want
the subsite to be created at teams/newsite/AboutUs.
Can I do this without having to use explicit paths?

RE: SPWebCollection Add Method
I think I should be using the ServerRelativeUrl property of SPWeb but am not
sure how.
I've tried to append the parent site path to the new web's name and now get
this bizarre error:
/AboutUs contains leading or trailing slash, which is invalid
Maybe I should just give up and do this via the template XML but this seemed so
much more elegant.
Code variation below:
private void CreateSubsites(PublishingWeb currentPublishingSite)
{
if (currentPublishingSite.IsRoot)
{
using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Web.Url))
{
using (SPWeb web = siteCollection.OpenWeb())
{
// Inherit LCID from parent
uint webLCID = Convert.ToUInt32(siteCollection.RootWeb.Locale.LCID);
// Get parent web relative URL
string parentWeb = siteCollection.ServerRelativeUtl;
string webUrl = parentWeb + AboutUs;
// webUrl, Title, Description, LCID, Template, UniquePerms,
bConvertIfThere
using (SPWeb newSite =
siteCollection.RootWeb.Webs.Add(webUrl, About Us, More information about
this site., webLCID, _siteTemplateNamePrefix, false, false))
{
// Perform additional customisations here
}
}
}
}

Thanks Joe. The following works nicely. :)
//Inherit LCID from parent
uint webLCID = Convert.ToUInt32(siteCollection.RootWeb.Locale.LCID);
Now I have one more small problem.
The Web site address /AboutUs is already in use.
Which is true, if you're talking about the web application root site
collection. However, I only want to get the parent site of the web I'm trying
to create. Looks like I'm heading too high up the hierarchy.
I'm currently creating the parent at a managed path teams/newsite. And want
the subsite to be created at teams/newsite/AboutUs.
Can I do this without having to use explicit paths?

Oh, of course. Sorry for missing that the LCID is explicitly unsigned in the
Add method :-).
You should be able to use Convert.ToUInt32 on the LCID property, instead of
trying to convert to ToString() representation of the Locale.
Cheers,
Joe.

SPWeb.Locale returns a
CultureInfohttp://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/kx54z3k7 object, so you
should be able to pass the
LCIDhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/system.globalization.cultureinfo.lcid
property from this straight into the add method.
eg:
siteCollection.Add(foo, foo, bar, siteCollection.RootWeb.Locale.LCID);

Subject: SPWebCollection Add Method
Hi all,
I'm trying to provision a subsite using this method and am stuck on the nLCID
parameter.
The API states a 32-bit GUID is required but I can't find one! :)
I want to inherit from the parent Site which uses English-AU but am not sure if
I'm getting it properly.
Will the following work?
if (currentPublishingSite.IsRoot)
{
using (SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Web.Url))
{
using (SPWeb web = siteCollection.OpenWeb())
{
//Inherit LCID from parent
uint
Re: SPWebCollection Add Method
Hey Paul,
It looks like you are generating the Server Relative URL for your new site
relative to the site collection's root web, when your intent is to actually
create the new site as a child of the 'current' site?
If so, I think the problem is that:
string parentWeb = siteCollection.ServerRelativeUtl;
should be:
string parentWeb = SPContext.Current.Web.ServerRelativeUrl;
The site collection's relative URL will always be the relative URL of the
top-level site, rather than the URL of the 'current' site.
Joe.

RE: SPWebCollection Add Method
Yah. That's exactly what I'm doing. I just don't know how to undo it. :)
That also explains the trailing slash remark.
sitecollection was already defined and I figured it would use the current site,
not the web app root. Very strange as it works in other contexts in the same
receiver.
I tried your suggestion but came up with the same error.
Giving up now. :(
