Go to Central Administration using the Start menu

November 10th, 2010

SharePoint 2010 uses a Windows Server 2008 operating system. This new OS has a nice feature named: User Account Control (UAC). UAC protect your users by running al application software with standard user privileges unless you explicitly authorize the application. When you start a program that needs more than standard privileges, you get the question to: “Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?”. By clicking Yes, the privileges are elevated to administrator priviliges.

When you go to the Central Administration by starting your browser and then navigating to the URL of the CA web application you are not asked to elevate your privileges. Clicking on Create Site Collection for example will ask for your credentials and gives you an Access Denied message. Even if you are the Farm Administrator! Some features are not visible because you don’t have the right for it. For example by clicking on the Configuration Wizards nothing shows up.

You can resolve this by starting the Central Admin from your Start Menu and by clicking Yes at the UAC dialog box:
 User Account Control

Another tip: Whenever you get the access denied message, try starting your application by right clicking and choose “Run as Administrator”.

SharePoint 2010 attach to w3wp.exe

October 27th, 2010

When I attached the Visual Studio 2010 debugger to the w3wp.exe process. I expected that I could step through the code. But my breakpoints were not hit. I thougt it has something to do with 32-64 bit issue. Because Microsoft doesn’t support 64 bit development for SharePoint 2007 with Visual Studio 2010:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee231582.aspx

But in this post I found the solution to debug: http://meligo.blog.com/2010/08/09/unable-to-debug-webpart-in-visual-studio-2010-moss-2007/

Default Visual Studio the attach to field is set to: “Automatic: Managed (v4.0) code, T-SQL code”. This settings should be manually set to: “Managed (v2.0, v1.1, v1.0) code”. After that I was able to debug my code with Visual Studio 2010.

 

Turn off Local Loopback feature

March 25th, 2010

A litle time ago I created a new SharePoint 2010 Web Application. For the hostheader I typed in custom name: intranet. At the root I created a team site. When I tried to access the site collection on http://intranet, I got a HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized.

This is because Windows Server 2008 and 2003 have a Local Loopback feature turned on by default. You can turn this feature off in the registry:

  1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
  2. In Registry Editor, locate and then click the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
  3. Right-click Lsa, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
  4. Type DisableLoopbackCheck, and then press ENTER.
  5. Right-click DisableLoopbackCheck, and then click Modify.
  6. In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
  7. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart your computer.

Web applications that use methods of the Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration namespace

September 12th, 2009

Web applications that use methods of the Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration namespace, such as for creating or deleting sites and for global administrative customizations, require a different security validation. Add the following code to the .cs file in an application:

SPGlobalAdmin globalAdmin = new SPGlobalAdmin();
Context.Items[SPGlobalAdmin.RequestFromAdminPort] = true;
Page.RegisterHiddenField(”__REQUESTDIGEST”, globalAdmin.AdminFormDigest);

This security validation uses the AdminFormDigest property of the SPGlobalAdmin class to insert a message digest on the page in the browser, registering the digest as a hidden field through the RegisterHiddenField method of the System.Web.UI.Page class. In addition, the RequestFromAdminPort field specifies that the context of the request is through the administrative port.

System and Site masterpages

Parameterize your page url to access SharePoint functionality

July 28th, 2009

Webpart maintenance page
Some people think they’re removing a webparts by clicking on ‘x’, actually the webpart is closed and stille exists (invisible) on the page. With the SharePoint webparts maintenance page you can close, remove or delete (multiple) webparts on a page. This is very handy page specially when your well written SharePoint webpart causes an error so the whole page can’t be displayed. Here is the solution to remove the blocking webpart, add the following to your page url: ?contents=1

Acces the SharePoint ToolPanes
Is it possible to edit forms pages like AllItems.aspx, DispForm.aspx EditForm.aspx …? Yes, add the following to you’re Forms page url ?ToolPaneView=2, now you can edit existing webparts or add new webparts, a content editor webpart with a disclaimer text for example. With ?ToolPaneView=3 you can search for webparts and with ?ToolPaneView=5 you can upload you’re custom webpart.

U2U - CAML Query Builder

February 11th, 2009

A time ago I need to write a SPQuery to query a List. I tested my query with the CAML Query Builder by Karine Bosch - U2U. After testing it I put the following query into my code like this:

SPList list = GetMyList();
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
query.Query = “<Query><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name=’Title’/><Value Type=’Text’>TEST</Value></Eq></Where></Query>”;
list.GetItems(query);

The code above always return all items in the list. So I start looking at the query, after a few minutes I saw that I had set the Query property of the SPQuery object, so I had to remove <Query> and </Query> from my query. Like this:

query.Query = “<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name=’Title’/><Value Type=’Text’>TEST</Value></Eq></Where>”;

Otherwise the query is ignored and therefore all items from the list are returned.

Do not use SharePoint Computed fields

January 16th, 2009

In this posting I will explain why not to use Computed fields. I was experiencing the following issue with the Computed field type:

I made a Computed column that combines two fields seperated with a minus sign:
 
<Field Name=”IDTitleField” Type=”Computed”>
   <FieldRefs>
      <FieldRef ID=”{GUID}” Name=”Title”/>
      <FieldRef ID=”{GUID}” Name=”ID”/>
   <FieldRefs>
   <DisplayPattern>
      <Column Name=”ID”/>
      <HTML><![CDATA[ - ]]></HTML>
      <Column Name=”Title”/>
   </DisplayPattern>
</Field>

After creating the column you can see the column at the site collection columns. You can add the column to you’re site collections contenttypes. But when you add the contenttype to a list the Computed columns are not copied(!) to the list. Why the Computed fields are not copied I don’t know.

So I start using the Calculated field with the following:

<Field Name=”IDTitleField2″ Type=”Calculated” ResultType=”Text”>
   <FieldRefs>
      <FieldRef ID=”{GUID}” Name=”Title”/>
      <FieldRef ID=”{GUID}” Name=”ID”/>
   <FieldRefs>
   <Formula>=CONCATENATE(ID, ” - “, Title)</Formula>
</Field>

This Calculated field solved my issue. Because the calculated fields are copied when adding the contenttype (which contains the Calculated field) to the list! So my conclusion is to avoid using the Computed field type. Therefore you can use the Calculated field type in many cases.

SharePoint SPBuiltIn classes

All checked out items MOSS 2007

November 7th, 2008

SharePoint is shipped with 7 standard reports. These reports are accessible in the site actions menu.  What if you want a custom report for example to view “All checked out items” (there is already a report All checked out items to me). Simply add an item to the Reports List. You can access the Reports List in the site collection under View All Site Content:
http://SERVERNAME/Reports%20List/AllItems.aspx

Add the following CAML-query:
<Where><IsNotNull><FieldRef Name=’CheckoutUser’ /></IsNotNull></Where>

You can use the CAML query builder to build up the CAML-query.
