  Dear sirs, My SharePoint Services 3.0 was working fine on Windows 2003 Server R2 Standard. It is a standalone machine not connected to the network. But SharePoint stops working after I installed Active Directory on this same machine. I did that executing dcpromo tool. Please, can you help me Thank you very much, Marcos Tito.

Marcos, You will require creating domain accounts and modifying the accounts that SharePoint runs as. Typically best practice is not to run a web application of any sort on the domain controller as you are ope ...Show All

• GS80 Re-Parenting

  I have a SharePoint Services v3 site collection that needs to be re-parented. I keep finding that this is a feature but can't find where you would actually preform the re-parenting. Is this a SharePoint Designer task To me it's also not clear enough what you would like to do. Do you need to move the whole site collection under another existing site collection Moving sites within a site collection is possible in SharePoint Designer as well as via the interface in MOSS. Could you give more details on what you require I heard the re-parenting in this Excel file. http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/d/c/1dc632e8-71e1-466f-8a2f-c940f1438e0a/SharePointProductsCo ...Show All

Searches on these IDs have shown that other users are seeing them for different reasons. They all have to do with a "lack of storage" somewhere.

  I am new to moss. I encounter a problem: Say i have an Calendar in my site. And I want to quote the Calendar in another page. How to do Any suggestion Assuming you just want to show the same calendar on two different pages, that is not a problem.

• flinger Implementing DTO's in.Net

  Hi, Can anyone suggest some good approaches to build Data Transfer Objects using .Net custom classes. Also would like to make them bindable friendly. Meaning when I have an array of entities and would like to bind the same to a datagrid. what interfaces do I need to implement to make it bindable to the datagrid. Thanks Sai Dtos are really just for transfers, you should probably map the dto to a custom business object. for binding its best to look for interfaces under the system.componentmodel i.e. IdataErrorInfo and INotifyPropertyChanged. If you want to learn more about business objects, try looking at a framework like csla.net that might give you some ideas. S ...Show All

• JoshMouch 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. SPItemEventReciever is only for 2007, but there were event handlers in 2003 as well! (I just don't remember the name space). 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 ...Show All

• cindyluke Enterprise Library

  hi, I want to use ETW(windows Event tracing) with enterprise Library 2.0.Is it possible to use this if yes then how we can implement this. Ashish Ashish, I don't recall seeing anything built into EntLib that supports ETW out of the box, but you could always extend the Logging Application Block.  Tim Hi Ashish, Enterprise Blocks doesn't directly give you API to use ETW, but you can use logging sink; extending the sink you can provide your custom Event Writer, and as application requires you can use it. See the way Instrumentation has been done; in a same fashion you do need to use Event Logging. As it is kind of Logging you would use and extend the logging blocks. ...Show All
