Re: ozmoss Digest, Vol 74, Issue 6
Thanks Paul - John / Sutha (and anyone else) - any comments on how to manage
the release cycle within a SharePoint online tenancy?
Also, I raised the question re: the PnP engine on Microsoft Tech Community, and
it was confirmed as an problem and an issue has been raised in the PnP GitHub
repository - https://github.com/SharePoint/PnP-Sites-Core/issues/1105
So hopefully we will get a quick turn around on the issue!
Thanks

Hey Nigel,

The replies, especially from Erwin seems to imply that lookup fields are

Here’s the offending Lookup XML.
See the WebID being a fixed guid. That seems to be the problem. It should be
{{siteid}}
If the WebID is fixed – then the lookup will work for that web, but if we are
taking the definitions to a separate site collection, that webid won’t be valid
– I think that’s where our problems begin.
I’m not sure the syntax, it should be {{siteid}}. Going to do some testing.

this is probably the key.

Your practice sounds like good practice to me, Nigel.
I usually deliver my code solutions via a pure CSOM console app. It's a
little more work but I've had consistent success creating a standard list

It's frustrating as there are bugs listed as completed in the project from a

Maybe it's because my lookups are also site cols applied via content types.

You want to do pretty much what you would do manually – create list first, then
add the lookup, then add the site/list content type to that list.
I find that I sometimes need to split the template into two pieces – one that
creates lists with no content type. And Fields that points to those lists.
Then I run apply a second time to apply the entire template again – and since
PnP provisioning template is additive, it gets the job done.

Hi All,
Having an issue trying to use the PnP Provisioning Engine PowerShell cmdlets to
template a site that contains Lookup columns. The site is an O365 site, and the
commands I am using are:
Connect-SPOnline "https://scentregroup.sharepoint.com/sites/scgpmo;
Get-PnPProvisioningTemplate -Out c:\temp\pmo.xml -PersistBrandingFiles
-Handlers Lists, ContentTypes, Fields, Files, Navigation, Pages,
RegionalSettings, SiteSecurity, TermGroups, Workflows
Connect-SPOnline "https://scentregroup.sharepoint.com/sites/pmo_trial;
Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate -Path c:\temp\pmo.xml -Handlers Lists,
ContentTypes, Fields, Files, Navigation, Pages, RegionalSettings, SiteSecurity,
TermGroups, Workflows
The "Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate" fails with the error:
Apply-PnPProvisioningTemplate : The field was found invalid:
{{listid:PriorLookUpStratAlign1}
I believe the line in the pmo.xml file that is causing the issue is the first
(of a few) lookup fields. I understand that the engine is using a token to
represent the list id, which should be replaced with an actual list id when the
list on the new site is actually created
Dont really understand why the "WebId" parameter is not also using some sort of
token replacement logic?
Has anyone used the engine to template sites including lookup fields? If so,
can you offer any advice as to where I am going wrong?
I have also attached the full pmo.xml file in case that helps
Thanks!
Nigel

Hi Guys,
Hope you had and are having good break.
I have content query web part with lots of html and some dynamic values
coming from the roll-up pages.
If I just write the html in xsl, some junk is getting added to it, and if I
wrap it in xsl:text than it does not change my markup which is ideal.
I have many dynamic values, so do I have keep on writing like below.. or is
there a better way
xsl:text disable-output-escaping=yes![CDATA[
div class=section-mobile-logo visible-xs

I havent started on it, but its a very long page with lots of markup and
client wants to use CQWP only.

RE: Recovering manually deleted Timer job Workflow
Yeah - I did go through the process of forcing activation of all features scoped at Farm and even Web Application level on my test environment, but it looks like the code to install this timer job isn't associated to a feature. Lesson is Dont delete ootb elements, and 'Dont expect anything to be straight forward with SharePoint Cheers, Nigel From: p.no...@keller.com.au To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: RE: Recovering manually deleted Timer job Workflow Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2014 00:05:53 + That seems like an extreme method to take just to restore a single workflow. You would hope they’d all be activated via a farm feature. Force activating that should do the job. But there’s a good lesson learnt here.

Re: SP2010 - Publish InfoPath form to existing Content Type
Yeah, unfortunately the lists have a number of items under a different CT, so if I use a form library I would need to convert the existing items over to the new CT - not something I really want to bother with.

RE: SP2010 - Publish InfoPath form to existing Content Type
Have lessened the pain by manually editing the XSF and changing the URL, ListID and ContentType ID, which then lets me deploy the new form to the new location Is there a replacement in 2013 ? And I don't mean a third-party product like Nintex Forms or whatever - I think its pretty poor of Microsoft to leave expected functionality gaps in SharePoint to be filled by third-party products. It makes it pretty hard to defend the licensing costs etc. of the product to management when you then have to turn around and license products for stuff like RBS, forms, workflow etc. From: p.no...@keller.com.au To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: RE: SP2010 - Publish InfoPath form to existing Content Type Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2014 23:50:00 + Or tell them it’s a dead product and rebuild it in 2013.

Custom Javascript on form
Hi All,
Firstly - I know my javascript/jQuery is pretty terrible - please feel free to
abuse me and give me examples of what I need to do better :)
I am trying to use javascript to hide the Name field on a list form if the
content type is of a specific type (I will set the Name value in the
PreSaveAction when save is clicked). However when my $(document).ready function
runs to do the check and hide the field, it runs before the List web part has
added the field control objects to the DOM.
I have tried using $(window).load as well.
The closest I have come to making it work the way I want is to get the SELECT
ctrl for the Content Type, and then override its onchange value. However then
the function ChangeContentType is undefined:
jQuery(document).ready(function() { var ctSelect = jQuery('table#formTbl
tbody tr:nth-child(1) td.ms-formbody select'); alert(Start);
ctSelect.bind(onchange, function() {
ChangeContentType(ctSelect.attr('id')); /* THIS IS UNDEFINED */
var contentTypeRow = jQuery('table#formTbl tbody
tr:nth-child(1)'); var nameRow =
jQuery('nobr:contains(Name)').closest(tr) var
ctSelectVal = jQuery('table#formTbl tbody tr:nth-child(1) td.ms-formbody
select option:selected'); alert(ctSelectVal.text());
// If this is Lease Matrix Document Set if (ctSelectVal.text() ==
Lease Matrix Document Set) {contentTypeRow.hide();
nameRow.hide(); } return false; });});
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Another alternative is to use the _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames array. See:
http://www.stephanrocks.com/2011/10/05/_spbodyonloadfunctionnames-in-sharepoint-vs-jquerys-document-ready/
Also if you are using SharePoint 2013, the JSLink functionality can accomplish
the same thing as what you are trying to achieve, but is much cleaner.

the document ready event will fire when the DOM is ready, however if you have
external script libraries which perform asynchronous changes to the DOM, then
this event is rendered nearly useless. You need to ensure that your script is
fired on
the result of that asynchronous change. In your case, I'm tipping it's
probably SP.JS. To do this, you can use SP.SOD.executeOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded
with SP.js as the target.

RE: Sp2010 Custom Site Definition
No it doesn't work - I get a message: WARNING: Template is not found and is not applied. and PowerShell creates the site without applying a template.

I assume this because on my first deploy of the CKS template driven site definition, it actually set this value correctly for me (tied to id 10 which the CKS template generates by default). However since then, I have not been able to get this site name to change even when I have retracted that wsp, and released other ones with a different name and using id 10.

Re: Managed Metadata Fields
Yeah I do the same thing and hook the mm field up to the termset through code, however if your field declaration includes the WebId or SiteId attributes, or the properties shown in my first post, then the field will appear to correctly hook up to the termset, but won't behave correctly. Instead what will happen is the correct value will be written to he hidden note field in the expected format of guid | label, but the associated mm or multi mm field won't be set correctly (it won't have a wssid value etc). So i suggest either generate your field declaration by hand and leave this stuff out, or edit the generated declaration and remove these attributes and properties Sent from my iPad On 13/09/2013, at 1:46 AM, Wes MacDonald wmacdon...@like10.com wrote: Hi, In the past I used these two blog posts: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sharepointdev/archive/2012/04/16/programmatically-create-a-managed-metadata-list-column-mohammed-faizan.aspx http://www.wictorwilen.se/Post/How-to-provision-SharePoint-2010-Managed-Metadata-columns.aspx They both use a feature receiver to link everything up.

Finished off below: From: nigel_wither...@hotmail.com To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Subject: Managed Metadata Fields Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 01:31:56 + Hey guys, Not a question this time - just a tip (NB I am working with SP2010, VS 2010). When I am creating solutions, I generally put together a proof of concept which includes the content types, lists, etc, which I then save as a WSP, and then import into Visual Studio to add the rest of the customizations. I generally only import the artifacts I need, not everything for the site, as I like my solutions to be as lean as possible. I have found however that with Managed Metadata fields pulled in this way, the field definition contains the environment specific properties: Property NameSspId/Name Value xmlns:q1=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; p4:type=q1:string xmlns:p4=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;7437670e-a4f0-4f53-99ed-a9561766f7c5/Value /Property and Property NameTermSetId/Name Value xmlns:q2=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema; p4:type=q2:string xmlns:p4=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance;9a2f696a-af3c-49cf-b186-1031f3f67113/Value /Property This means when you deploy this field onto another site collection using different termset Id's the field no longer works.

Managed Metadata Fields
Hey guys, Not a question this time - just a tip (NB I am working with SP2010, VS 2010). When I am creating solutions, I generally put together a proof of concept which includes the content types, lists, etc, then I export this to WSP and import into Visual Studio, and add the rest of the customizations. I generally only pull in the artifacts I need, not everything for the site, as I like my solutions to be as lean as possible.

RE: Migration issue
Hey guys, In case you're interested, we have gotten agreement that we only need to auto add the footer on docx and xlsx (woohoo), so I have achieved this with an event handler on ItemUpdated - this way I have access to the absolute url of the item and its current version number (as not available by quick parts). Used the OpenXML sdk to delete existing footer and insert new one. Am happy to write a script or console app that will iterate through the docs and update any existing docx's and xslx's so that the previous version has the old footer information (matching any hard copies that are around), and the current version has the new correct footer info. Dont really like having an event handler (just dont like them, although they seem to be all I am ever writing/maintaining), but it does seem appropriate in this case thanks again for the help Nigel Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 15:30:15 +1000 Subject: Re: Migration issue From: web.ad...@syd.catholic.edu.au To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com A whole world of pain basically. New docs aren't the problem really. It's the existing ones you'll have problems with. Deal with them first. The simplest solution is for them to accept that this is a new system and use content types and DispForm.aspx to display the metadata. Not your fault they have multiple Office version docs. I'd ignore the document path info for now cos it's going to change anyway. But if the Version info exists in the legacy system, u might want to query that and export to a spreadsheet.

A button will not help, since it still requires you to open each document, press the button and save 3. A template will not help, since existing documents are not using the template It seems to me that your best choice is to write an application that edits the documents.

The CU does not appear to have helped, in fact proving the rule NEVER apply a CU unless you have to, and then only do it to DEV with lots of testing, it has broken the version history of all the document sets, giving the error: System.FormatException: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.at System.DateTimeParse.Parse(String s, DateTimeFormatInfo dtfi, DateTimeStyles styles) at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.DocumentSets.DocumentSetVersionCollection.ReadInSnapshotFields(XmlReader reader, DocumentSetVersion snapshot) at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.DocumentSets.DocumentSetVersionCollection.ReadInSnapshots(XmlReader reader) at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.DocumentSets.DocumentSetVersionCollection.Load() at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.DocumentSets.DocumentSetVersionCollection.get_Count() at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.Pages.DocumentSetVersionHistoryUI.Sort() at Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.Pages.DocumentSetVersionHistoryUI.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) On a brighter point, I wrote a script to show all the doc sets that had the issue (around 20 of the 4000 in the library), and it appears that all of these document sets have nearly-duplicate documents in them - that is, they have MSG files added to them which have the same filename (not including extension) as a PDF in the doc set. I believe deleting these files (and removing from the recycle bins) makes the whole thing work ok again - so well done Ishai!!! - but I am having to restore the environment to test properly thanks for your help guys!

RE: Dropdownlist and masterpage gibberish
Yes - the control id is generated by sharepoint, consisting of the Guid assigned to the web part (I think) and some other details. So it will change between environments, site collections and even pages that the control is deployed to. The best bet is to find another way to refer to your control in the jQuery, for example by class, or by using a selection pattern where you select a div containing the dropdown, then the next 'select'. e.g. var dropDownCtrl = jQuery(select.drpDownClassName) or var dropdownCtrl = jQuery(div.divsClassName select) From: akhanna...@gmail.com Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2013 14:16:24 +1200 Subject: Dropdownlist and masterpage gibberish To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Hi Guys, I am creating a custom user control in MOSS 2007 to save some values to database.

Re: List with hundreds of columns
I have done something similar, with a document set that has approx 60-70 columns. I created a custom new form for the document set (as this is the only way to edit the new form for a doc set) and embedded jQuery in it to give the form tabs, do client side validations etc. I then edited the edit and view forms, added content editor web parts with pretty much the same jQuery, so they get the tabs and the edit form gets the validations. It all works well, and although there is some maintenance when the fields change, I much prefer it to have to change a little bit of jQuery and let the ootb list web part handle the CRUD operations then to have to develop a set of custom forms to do it (I know info path is an option, but we use managed metadata, so that pretty much rules that out).

RE: Issues Uploading Office 2003 docs to SP 2010 Programmatically
Hey Paul, The commented code was setting the Content Type properties in a hashtable and applying that on file upload, but no that wasnt working. I suspect the Office 2003 doc was then promoting its properties to SharePoint and overwriting this setting. My code then goes processes a CSV (for original property data for each item from the old DMS), XML (for data mapping conversions of these old values to new SharePoint property values), and a huge switch statement that sets the new property value for different types of SharePoint columns, updating the item after ever property value had been set. I found that if I then re-set the content type setting after all of this done, the content type setting stuck (I assume this is occurring after the document had promoted its properties). Like I said, probably not the most efficient thing in the world, but its working now :D Cheers, Nigel Date: Wed, 15 May 2013 15:57:23 +1000 Subject: Re: Issues Uploading Office 2003 docs to SP 2010 Programmatically From: web.ad...@syd.catholic.edu.au To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Nigel, In my experience you need to set the properties before adding the file, which your commented code was already doing.

Word Custom Properties Character Limitation
Hi All, We are using SharePoint 2010, and have a Document Set which has a large number of shared fields, some of which are multiple lines of text. Some of the allowed content types for the document set use Word document templates, which then use quick parts to display the metadata properties pushed down from the document set in the content of the document. We have experienced a problem lately where Word hangs attempting open documents on the splash screen showing Processing... A lot of digging around has shown (I think) that Word custom properties have a character limit of 255 char (similar complaints are here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/worddev/thread/fb885674-dc8c-4c0a-9202-374adbf11612/ and here: https://forum.solidworks.com/message/282519#282519). Testing of the documents that hang in our environment has proven this out - the problem docs all have fields with content 255 chars, shrinking it down makes them open correctly. The users are going to pitch a blue fit if we try and limit them to 255 chars for these fields! Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, and has any possible resolution/work around. My possible solutions are:- Whinge at MS (can't see any joy coming from this approach)- Use multiple fields limited to 255 chars (this would involve a lot of work re-doing the SharePoint forms, document templates, plus a nasty script to split the existing 255char content into the new fields)- Switch from using Word documents to web pages, display the field content much like a publishing page (I like this approach, but as it is going to require a bit of dev time to might be a hard sell) Any ideas?

CQWP (Custom Styles) Not included in Save Site As Template
Hi All,
I have created a few CQWP custom styles, that are packaged as part of a
solution where the XSL's are deployed to the site/Style Library/XSL Style
Sheets/folder, and a modified .webpart file is deployed to the web part
gallery referencing these styles. All this works great, and I now have a nice
jQuery slider and a jQuery accordion.
However, when I add this web part to a page, and then save the site as template
(including content), this customized CQWP is not created on the pages on the
newly created site - even when the site is created within the same site
colleciton (i.e. so there can be no doubt the web parts exist in the gallery
with the expected IDs etc.).
I have exported the site template WSP to Studio and had a look at the
SitePages elements.xml, and I can see the webpart is referenced correctly:

F5 Keep-Alive Images
Hey Guys, Quick question – I have been hassling the network team here change the F5 we use for load-balancing our server farm to stop using the ping-response from servers as the keep-alive for directing traffic to them, and switch over to retrieving images for each web application and using these as the keep-alive – the images I have suggested using are stored in the Style Library (so in the site collections database). They contend that they have not been able to get the URI’s to these images to load from the F5. I expect this is because they are not authenticating the request, but before I chase this down with them, I wanted to confirm that the config I am proposing is appropriate. What do you think? Have you set this up before / do you think using images stored in the content database for keep-alives sounds like a good idea?

Re: Sharepoint Foundations - Content Types
Hi, 1) Is there a way to “Publish” a list content type as a site content type? Not through the UI (that I am aware of). There may be some way it is possible through SP Designer, or you could save the list as a template, download the .stp and rename to .cab, extract the schematic.xml and get the CAML from here to make your content type in visual studio (pretty long-winded) 2) If not, is there a way to copy a list content type and make others with the same base fields? Not so much the list content type itself, but is possible to make a template of the list (which would include the list content type) and re-use it. If it was me, I would look at creating the site content type, then migrating your existing list data over to a list using the new site content type. Site CTs enables you to classify the same type of data throughout a site collection, which lets you do a lot of useful things like refining in search results, applying workflows, applying info mgmt policies, rolling up data of that type etc. There are a lot of data migration products around that can help in migrating your existing data to you new list, or it is a fairly simple power shell script.

RE: Virtualization preferences for a new SharePoint Farm
Hi, I prefer VmWare, simply because I am more comfortable with it - most places I have worked at use ESX as their virtualization solution. I think it is still recommended that your SQL cluster is physical, though it works ok when virtualised as well (my current employer has SQL 2008 R2 virtualised), but the performance of the whole thing then depends a lot on having good IOPS from the drive carrying the virtual machines. SharePoint 2010 requires the following IOPS: Crawl database, search requires from 3,500 to 7,000 I/O per second Property database, search requires 2,000 IOPS. Although I dont think they cover off on virtualised database servers, I found this document quite useful for this sort of stuff: http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/services/dell_large_sharepoint_farm.pdf Cheers, Nigel Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2012 14:12:31 +1100 Subject: RE: Virtualization preferences for a new SharePoint Farm From: tand...@tassoc.com.au To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Hi All, I should preface my questions by saying that I am *not* an infrastructure specialist, but a SharePoint Architect and Conslultant, and am in the process of specifying the infrastructure for a new SharePoint 2010 production farm within the organisation I work, and the question of any virtualization preferences for the farm have arisen in two senses: 1. We are free to choose either VMWare ESX Server Technology, or Microsoft HyperV. I'd appreciate any feedback positive or negative on either platform. I have personally had a recent bad experience in the VMWare world with the VMWare Ballooning memory management causing a SharePoint installation to run very poorly, but I assume that was simply inadvisable resource allocation by those managing the environment. However any advice one way or the other about the preferred virtualization platform would be much appreciated. 2. My recollection from several years ago, is that it would generally have been considered wise to recommend that the SQL Server cluster supporting such a SharePoint Farm remain on physical servers. What are others doing these days? Are you tending to virtualise your SQL Server Server clusters supporting SharePoint, or also virtualizing these as well? This cluster will be a new SQL Server 2008 R2 cluster, as the other SQL Server instances / clusters within the organisation are not of an appropriate version or architecture to support SharePoint 2010. Any feedback on these issues would be much appreciated.

RE: Check null or empty on it field
Rather than pull the title out to a seperate string variable and then check on
it, I would use something like:
string iTitle = (string)(spListItem[Title] ?? No Title);
string iDesc = (string)(spListItem[Description] ?? No description);
I believe casting the field value to string is more efficient then using a
ToString function, and using the null-coalescing operator is more efficient
then a seperate if statement (though I am prepared to be shouted down over
this :)
Also, I think it is a lot neater in the code, and the same form can be used for
different datatypes:
DateTime someDate = (DateTime)(item[Date Field Name] ?? DateTime.MinValue);

Subject: Check null or empty on it field
Hi all,
I’m trying to put some checks in place to avoid exceptions when a field has no
value. I had tried null but it didn’t seem to be enough. I’m now trying the
following but continue to get an exception when a field in any item is empty.
Is there a more robust way to do this? Check length as well, or instead??
// Check the value for each string and supply a defualt if none exists
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(iTitle))
{
iTitle = No Title;
}
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(iDesc))
{
iDesc = No description;
}
Kind regards,

RE: MOSS - Web Part chrome is locked
DocumentTemplate is an optional parameter for a ListInstance element, so
presumably if you omit it, then no document template would be assigned to the
list.
Haven't really checked this though, as I tend to create my ListInstances etc in
code, not declaratively, as it gives you far more power over the configuration
of the list, and allows you to handle conflicts (ie you can handle the case
where a list already exists with the same name/url)

Hi Shahram,
That hasn’t been my experience. It’s possible that it’s an either or (by design
or otherwise) but the properties added to the webpart file seem to apply
directly to its properties in the gallery, not a page instance. In any case
I’ve only needed to add the property to the elements module and it works as I’d
hoped.
A slight variation was required.
Property Name=ChromeType Value=TitleOnly /
I’ve also found that many other advertised properties don’t work as expected or
where they’re expected. It’s very, very difficult to get the right info because
a lot of it relates to System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts as opposed to what’s
strictly allowed within a feature elements file for SharePoint.
The SharePoint schema reference lacks any detail when it comes to a parameter
set for these elements.
I’ve tried to use the IgnoreIfExists attribute for my list instance and web
part module but they’re apparently invalid in this context. :\
Regards,
Paul

Found it. It can be set as a property of the file element within the module in

e.g.

Hi Paul,
The CreatechildControls method creates the controls on runtime when the web
part is rendered, not when it is provisioned.
You’re resetting the Chrome type every time you display the web part.
You can define custom settings when you are provisioning the web part as part
of a web template, or in a feature activated event receiver, I’m not sure how
would you go about defining the default chrome for a particular web part
though…. Anyone?
Cheers,
JC

Hi all,
I’m sure I’ve done something silly but I’m unable to change the chrome settings
for a custom web part via the UI.
They always revert to what I’ve defined in CreateChildControls.
protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
if (!error)
{
try
{
base.CreateChildControls();
this.ChromeType = PartChromeType.TitleOnly;
Table table = new Table();
// etc...
row.Controls.Add(cell);
table.Controls.Add(row);
this.Controls.Add(table);
Is there a simple way to prevent this?
Kind regards,
Paul

RE: suggestions to solve a banner problem
I think in most cases the top section of a page will be controlled by the master page, not the page layout, as there is generally a logo and a global nav held there also. You cannot add web part zones to a master page (without doing a little hack - http://littletalk.wordpress.com/2009/07/28/add-webpart-zone-on-masterpage-in-sharepoint/), so if your layout is like I have described, then you need to use a content placeholder. Also, I don't really like the idea of content author's having the ability to change items considered to be part of the overall design, and not specific to the current page.

RE: Assigned to email alert in custom list
Yep, this is possible. An ItemAdded event handler can be added to your list where you implement this logic.

The content type has an “assigned to” field. I would like the functionality of the task or issue list to email the person when they are assigned to the risk. Anyone know if this is possible without using third party controls or SharePoint Designer? Code solutions are fine.

RE: Event Handler Not Firing
probably not the same (i havent done an item added event handler) but i had a very similar experience with email rec event handler. Turned out it was because the email rec'd was associated with the owstimer.exe (timer service) not the w3 process, so this service had to be rset to pick up my event handler, and likewise you hadto attach to this process to debug. As i say, not sure what svc item added is assoc with - would guess it is the w3 process - but just sounds very similar to the frustration i had before the coin dropped Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2010 16:04:30 + Subject: Re: Event Handler Not Firing From: breen...@gmail.com To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com Thank you for replying. Tried those 3 different tools to confirm that the Event Handler is registered on the Document Library and I can see it with all 3. With SPM 2007 I can see that it is registered to fire with both ItemAdded and ItemAdding ... yet it does not fire at all. Tried rebuilding/retracting/redeploying the solution ... no joy. Turned off/on Check In/Check Out. Tried Uploading using the Upload file option. Tried Saving from Word to the Doc Lib ... nothing seems to trigger it. The document library is in a Document Center site template. Does that make any difference? I had Approval turned on for new Items but I have tried turning that off and on and testing whether the Event Handler would fire. Tried using a different Content Type and tried using the standard Document content type. Still it does not fire. When should ItemAdding fire? (I thought it fired if any new item is created and it should fire Synchronously before the created item. Then ItemAdded fires after Asychronously). _ Do you have a story that started on Hotmail?

RE: Custom Site Def not deploying .aspx when used on diff Site Collection
Hi, Just to make sure I described the situation properly: Custom Site Definitions I have created by engineering a site, then using the SSG to export them to a VSS project work fine when used on the web application where the site they are based off was created, but on other web apps, they create ok, but the pages that should be deployed with them (eg default.aspx - exist on the filesystem, and are referenced in the onet.xml) do not get created. 1) Currently running on WSSv3.0 SP1 2) Next step to try is to build one up from hand - just trying to avoid this if possible. Have looked over the ONET.XML (shudder) and the pages themselves but cant really see anythign wrong with them. Also considering adding a feature to the sites that simply adds the pages to the site if they dont already exist there - but think this is ugly as it will mean the pages bcome ghosted, when I really want it to live on the filesystem as much as possible. 3) Same thing happens if I create a template from one of the sites, and then export that to .stp, import it on another web app - site creates ok, but the pages aren't there.

RE: Custom Site Def not deploying .aspx when used on diff Site Collection
Nope, not publishing pages (am using WSS) These are subsites that are being created, underneath the root site of a web application. Am starting to think there is nothing for it but coding up the def from hand, have a fairly good handle on the onet.xml now i think, so guess its not going to be too bad - as long as the sites work as expected at the end of it! If anyone can suggest anything, or knows a good way of constructing the sites (other then by copying an existing def and modifying to suit needs - this is what I am planning on doing) please let me know. In fact, does anyone know if creating a site template (stp) then opening it up as a cab, and using the files in there as a def (ie living on the filesystem) is an appropriate strategy??
