• pdurbha Central Admin is not operational

  When I'm in the Central Admin 3.0 site I can navigate using the various links but when I try to do anything else like Edit or Delete even click OK or Cancel buttons, none of this works. The list boxes don't drop down and the when you select radio buttons it's info is always greyed out. It's almost like it can't hit the DB or the code behind the scenes doesn't execute.

Any help is appreciated! I've tried installing Sharepoint 2 times now and I ran the wizard several times to try to fix it as well. None of that wo ...Show All

• Stokh debugging workflows

  Hi I followed the instructions here to create a custom workflow using infopath forms. I got it compiled and installed fine. http://weblog.vb-tech.com/nick/archive/2006/09/04/1753.aspx I was able to create a workflow for a document library based on my code, but when I run it from an item in a doc library it died with a status "failed on start" So I loaded up VS2005 project on my dev MOSS07 server and attached to the w3wp process that was executing workflow code. I see symbols loaded up for various components. But none of my breakpoints show up, saying the "symbols cannot be loaded". The symbol file is created along with my DLL. The installer puts my DLL into the GAC. How does with work with symbol files ...Show All

• Pradeep Gupta Load Balancing of Business functionality in a Distributed Scenario

  Hi, I have a scenario wherein the custom application that I am developing would be installed at 3 different locations. Now based on how the business load is, one system should be able to offload certain part of its work item queue to the other two systems where load isnt that heavy. Sounds confusing. Well let me try to articulate with an example. Suppose I have to process Insurance claims and I have two office within a city which does that. Each office would handle requests designated to their area. Now suppose Office 1 has heavy load of claims to processed and it knows that Office 2 doesnt have any heavy workload, it should be able to offload the same to the other office get it processed and give the result back even though the claim doe ...Show All

• Mike Hildner MSMQ Infrastructure

  Hi all, I was wondering does MSMQ use SQL server or any other known databases as its underlining infrastructure architecture Other word, what protocol does MSMQ use to save its files Thank you for your time. MSMQ does not use SQL Server underneath. It uses its own queue storage mechanism. By default, the storage is handled in the %windir%\system32\msmq\storage folder (though it can be moved) ...Show All

• DavidThi808 SPItemEventReceiver do not work properly when i use the wss object model API.

• NipplesAndLicks Physical seperation of layers - business layer -> data layer?

  Hi Forum Does it make any sense to build a design that supports more than one physical seperation. I'm making a web application and I need to make it secure and scalable. I can see an idea in making it possible to physically seperate the presentation layer from the business layer. You can put the presentation layer in a DMZ. Does it make sense to make it possible to physically seperate the business tier from the data tier What requirements would justify such a design I'm making a web application that is to run on a web farm in a hosting center. There is not reqirement that the data tier is to run on there other side of the planet. I'm thinking mostly about security. I know that making physical seperation has a perform ...Show All

• Mashrur Assigning a unique number to all documents

  Hello,   I want to store a unique ID to use in a webpart. In a aspx page I would do it with a database field and a stored procedure, but with webparts i don't know. I want to give all my documents a unique ID, but not use the ID from sharepoint itself. A web part is a piece of code, the same as an aspx page. It does have storage, but it is not a database management system, and does not offer protection from concurrency or locks etc. Why not do the method that you allready know how to do (use a database field and a stored proc) to create these IDs as soon as a document is being put in a library, a unique ID is given to that document. That unique ID will show on the library as ...Show All

• Zetabyte Hosting Long Running Batch Processes In IIS 6

  I am currently architecting a framework that will depend on IIS to host batch oriented code. The design will use a disconnected model with a controller (that lives remotely) and checks back periodically via an ASMX layer. When invoking the actual batch execution code the ASMX call will spawn as many threads as it is configured to run and immediately respond (hence avoiding any long running HTTP connection). I like the idea for a number of reasons, obviously I get to use a standard communication protocol to invoke the batch code across tiers and I can even incorporate standard load balancing routines. I'm also able to use the same communication end points to check back in on the threads as they are executing. There are also a number of o ...Show All
