Hey,

i have a problem with „save site as template“.  I get the error message:

SaveAsTemplate : Exception calling "SaveAsTemplate" with "4" argument(s): "Error generating solution files in temporary directory."

At D:\Install_Scripte\export to template.ps1:3 char:20

+ $Web.SaveAsTemplate <<<< ("Template","Template","Template",1)

   + CategoryInfo         : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException

   + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException

I run it with the PowerShell command:

$Web=Get-SPWeb SiteURL

$Web.SaveAsTemplate("Template","Template","Template",1)

The AppPol Owner has full rights on the Temp drive of the SharePoint Server.

What can I do to save the site as template? The Problem is only on this one site, by all other sites there is no problem.

Thanks for your help

Stefan

I have multiple team sites for different departments.  Each department used to not be able to see departments sites other than their own.  Now, everyone can see every site.  Example: department A has Department A's security group permitted to that site.  However, User 22 who is not part of that group has full permissions when using Check Permissions.  User 22 is not listed under site permissions on the top level of that team site. 

Where could the location be granting User 22 permission to that site without being specifid permissions to that site on the team site level?

Hi All,

We are trying to make use of the content organizer feature of sharepoint 2010 to route documents around the site. For that, we are using officialfile.asmx to submit the document from one sharepoint farm A to sharepoint farm B.

Farm B has got a site collection with content organizer feature enabled and Farm A has got sendto locations created with the officialfile.asmx URL of Farm B.

Farm B site collection where content org feature is enabled has got custom content types. All these custom content types are published to Farm A and this content types are also added to the dropoff library.

Now, the problem is, whenever we are trying to publish a document from Farm A using the sendto location of Farm B, the document is getting moved correctly, but when it lands in dropoff library, it is automatically taking the default content type of the dropoff library and not the content type of the actual document.

Any help please?

Hello,

I am getting anonymous requests to _layouts/inplview.aspx after extending web application fromhttp://intranet to http://intranet:8080

I wanted to extend it to allow anonymous access from http://intranet:8080 which should be published to https://extranet.company.com.

After extending web application ISA 2006 started to block anonymous requests which weren't anonymous before extending.

Even after disabling Anonymous access on all site collections where it was enabled and removing Extended IIS site http://intranet:8080 SharePoint continues to make anonymous requests fromhttp://intranet:8080

Issue not allow to edit documents, check out, check in, view and edit properties and view document menu in IE but showing this erro message in Chrome (on https://extranet.company.com, it's working inside: http://intranet):

Here is more infor from ISA logs about exact URLs:

Weird error when clicking into document library

We have a problem on one of our document libraries where if you click on the doument library title on the webpart page or click on its name via 'View all site content', we get "an unexpected error has occured" message. I can connect to the library using SPD and get to the Admin page from here, but I'm not really clear why this is happening all of a sudden. Looking in ULS viewer I can see the error:

System.ArgumentException: Invalid field name. {de9012a8-06c7-4c63-b823-92067bc43feb}  /finance/procurementprocess/Finance only   

So I wrote some powershell to enumerate and write out all the GUIDs for the field names in this library, and this is not one of them! In fact, I can't see this GUID as being a site column on any site.

Does anyone know how I could recover this library so users can use it again? It has around 1500 items in it with meta data specific to this library so I would prefer to repair it than rebuild it. I was thinking maybe back it up using powershell then restore it somewhere else in the hierarchy and see if that fixes it (long shot!)

Hi Friends,

I get an message on Central Admin of SharePoint 2010 farm as a part of health reports:

1. Title - Database has large amounts of unused space
2. Explaination -

Following databases have large amounts of space allocated on the disk but not in use. This may be due to recent deletion of data form the database, or because the database has been pre-grown to a larger size. This database will take up a larger amount of space on the file system unless it is shrunk down to a smaller size. DSI_Search_Service_PropertyStoreDB on <db instance name>.

3. Remedy -

The database can be shrunk in size using the DBCC ShrinkDatabase command or the Shrink Database wizard in SQL Server Management Studio. For more information about this rule, see "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=167144".

4. Failing Services -

SPTimerService (SPTimerV4)

I am pretty much aware about shrinking of content databases. I want to know how much risky is the shrinking of service app databases or any other sp system database is? From your ie expert point of view. This db .mdf is 3 gb & not a problem at all. started concerning after i saw this - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262731(v=office.14).aspx#DBMaintenanceForSPS2010_ShrinkingDataFiles

Hi Friends,

We have an existing SharePoint 2010 farm with multiple SharePoint application servers (with office web apps) & clustered SQL.

How can we move forward for implementing FAST Search 2010 on the top of this.



I assume this requires a separate (than existing SharePoint Farm) server with some minimal h/w & s/w requirements. all okay.

How can i connect this single box then to existing SharePoin 2010 multi server farm.

I am all okay in understanding the installation & configuration steps as documented -

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff381267(v=office.14).aspx

My question is if i install & configure FAST search server in machine X how will it pick my existing multi server farm?

Do i need to add this machine X in existing SharePoint 2010 farm by installing SharePoint 2010 & adding it to existing farm & how about SQL? will it require separate sql instance?

Hi All,

It's been really ridiculous on  using SharePoint 2010. Sudden of all, my CA --> Review database status throws an error when i try.

The error message is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object. "

Upon checking the event viewer, nothing is getting written for this error. From the trace log i could find PowerviewStapling/feature.xml is missing in my web front end server.

Note : i have installed the SQL Reporting Service for 2012 add-on for share point 2010 very long back. 

But till last week, this review database status link were working fine without any issue.

WorkAround : Done run on PS Config wizard,server reboot,iisreset,timer job restart. But nothing click out well.

Can someone help me on this. since i'm beginner to share point 2010.

I've recently been researching ways in which I can add an editable Excel file into Sharepoint so certain people can edit it/save it back to the site.

However, by doing it the way I currently have it, I'm storing an external Excel file and users have to download it and check it back in again etc - this isn't very easy (nor quick) for the types of users that I need to edit the file.

I've heard there is a way to have some kind of Excel style file embedded into the actual site. I aim to pre-populate this each month so users can directly add their comments into this, rather than downloading/saving back in etc - does anyone know how can I do this please? So far I've only been able to find an Access page, but nothing to do with Excel.

I really need to make the process as short/simple as possible.

Hi Guys, 

I recently completed an in-place upgrade from WSS 3.0 to SharePoint Foundation 2010 to SharePoint Server 2010. While the first half of this migration process seems to have worked from WSS 3.0 to Foundation 2010 the upgrade from Foundation 2010 to Server 2010 has left the installation with only the Foundation level service applications.

If I go to add a new service application the only ones listed are the foundation service applications but if I go to check the current license it confirms the enterprise server edition is installed. I have re-ran the product configuration wizard and if I check the patch status in central administration it confirms that all the enterprise components are installed they just aren't showing up in the service applications listing! 

Any ideas on how I can add these missing services to central administration?

Cheers.

 

 

 

 

How do I search both a Document Properties/Metadata list and the content library

Hi there - we are using FAST search and have implemented a custom search results page (using SP 2010) that displays document metadata - e.g., short summary of document, some other information like Industry, Country, Region.  This metadata is stored in a List - let's call it DocumentMetadataList.  The actual documents are contained in DocumentContentLibrary.

What happens now is that we're only searching that DocumentMetadataList in our Search scope because if we search the actual content library - DocumentContentLibrary - it returns 0 document information (outside of a common attribute "Publisher" that matches the custom attribute "Publisher" and Title that we have in our DocumentMetadataList.

So, how do I configure fast search so that it searches inside the document as well as the metadata list?  If I don't search within the document, I don't get good search results because I'm limited by what I tagged or entered in the metadata information. 

Your help in this matter is very, very much appreciated.  Thanks!

We are attempting to change our communication port used by SharePoint from 1433 (default SQL port) to something else. 

• On our SQL server, we have changed the ports within SQL Server and cliconfg.exe (by way of creating an alias). 
• On the WFE server, we've created an alias pointing to the new port with cliconfig.exe.

Speaking with our networking team, we ensured that the new port was opened, and we attempted to run through the configuration wizard.  It fails on step 3 (connecting to the configuration database).  This is strange, because in the SQL Server Log Viewer, it shows that our SP account logged in to the SQL server correctly (this would be from the Configuration Wizard, when we enter the Passphrase).  So we enabled both the new port AND port 1433.  SharePoint's Configuration Wizard succeeded.

Apparently traffic coming from the WFE is popping back and forth between port 1433 and the new port, from what the networking team said.  Yet, other than in cliconfig.exe (on the WFE), I'm not certain where to change the port for SharePoint to use.

I tried putting in the new port in the textbox in the Configuration wizard where it asks for the Database Server name (to click "Retrieve databases" so that it grabs the configuration database name) - and this works, it DOES grab the configuration database name, even when port 1433 is blocked..

Any thoughts/information would be appreciated.

Hi all,

I have a server that host SharePoint 2010 and also Project Server 2010. Before i apply the SP1 and CU June 2011 it seems good and i need to make the site available for any browser so that i apply SP1 and CU June 2011. But after the patching it seems something wrong happen.

I already do the upgrade from powershell and make a trick to start "SharePoint timer" trick and it say all already upgrade.

Some article said that "The fix is simple: I recreated the templates from the basic Microsoft Project Site template, resaved them into the PWA site collection’s Solutions Gallery, and can now auto-provision. I was also able to manually recreate the project sites for the projects that were missing them."

for the last trick i don't know how to recreated the templates in Project server site.

Hope the community can help me since my server now just show
