De Rai in Amsterdam. Maandag 18 en dinsdag 19 januari 2010. De place-to-be voor iedere SharePoint liefhebber in Nederland. Robert Jaakke heeft op de expert-stand gestaan met een aantal andere SharePoint MCM’ers. John Mutters en ik zijn voor de inhoudelijke sessies gegaan.
De BI Overview sessie van Mike Fitzmaurice is mij het meest bijgebleven van de eerste dag. Op zich niet veel nieuws gehoord, maar ik ben zelf enorm fan van de BI mogelijkheden met SharePoint 2010. Het is dan altijd leuk om te zien hoe anderen hier over vertellen en welke voorbeelden ze laten zien. Op dag twee heb ik het meest opgestoken van Patrick Savalle met zijn sessie over “How to Create a Successful Social Collaboration Platform with SharePoint 2010”. Een goede mix van methodiek en praktische voorbeelden in hun demo. Zijn boek gaat hierover.
Naast de sessies is het natuurlijk ook altijd weer erg gezellig om alle bekenden te zien. De koffie op de stand van Qurius: absoluut fantastisch.
Groeten,
Joris

As we all know 'Central Admin' is the place for Sharepoint to administer a lot of things. One of the things we can do in the Central admins 'application management' tab is to create or extend a webapplication.
I recently opened in a Windows 2008 environment 'Central Admin' and went to the 'application management' tab, but found that the link 'Create or extend webapplication' was missing. What the.....
After some research I found a simple solution to fix this. Close the browser. Start a new browser window by right-clicking on the Internet Explorer shortcut and choose the 'Run as administrator' option. Next browse to the Central Admin site and voila. The link is being displayed again.
Hope this post will save you some time!
Ciao,
Niels

If you're running SharePoint 2010 on a Domain Controller you need to add a ACL Access Rule to enable Sandboxed Solutions. Without this Acces Rule the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation User Code Service will start but the SPUCWorkerProcess.exe won't.
Run the following PowerShell command to fix this...
$acl = Get-Acl HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName
$person = [System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]"Users"
$access = [System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryRights]::FullControl
$inheritance = [System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags]"ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit"
$propagation = [System.Security.AccessControl.PropagationFlags]::None
$type = [System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType]::Allow
$rule = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule($person, $access, $inheritance, $propagation, $type)
$acl.AddAccessRule($rule)
Set-Acl HKLM:\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName $acl

For a customer I recently worked out a proof of concept with some InfoPath forms and some simple workflows.
On the SharePoint environment I had to show my forms, there was no InfoPath 2007 available and I also didn’t have administrator permission to go the central admin site.
As far as I knew, there were 3 ways to deploy an InfoPath form:
- To a SharePoint Form Library. (Requires direct access to the SharePoint environment from Infopath 2007)
- As a SharePoint content type. (Requires direct access to the SharePoint environment from Infopath 2007)
- As an administrator-approved form template. (Requires permissions to the central admin site for deploying the form template)
None of these 3 ways were convenient for me since my InfoPath didn’t had a connection to the SharePoint environment and I only had permissions within a given site collection.
I came up with a 4th way to deploy an InfoPath form without having to write any code!!
On my development machine on which I have SharePoint 2007, InfoPath 2007 and of course full control, I deployed my InfoPath form directly to a form library (the easiest way). From this form library I created a “List template” (an .stp). Next, I uploaded this .stp file to the list gallery on the SharePoint environment I needed to show the proof of concept on. Created a new library based on my custom list template and my form library with InfoPath form was deployed and worked!!
Actually, not the first time. Make sure your development environment and the environment you’re deploying to have the same language pack. Otherwise your uploaded list template isn’t available in the list of available library templates. This was the case for me. I took a wild shot and opened the .stp file (by renaming it to .cab). Extracted the manifest.xml file and the .000 file and replaced all 1033 (English) references in the manifest.xml to 1043 (Dutch). Then I created a very simple .ddf file and used MakeCab.exe to create a new .stp file. Remarkably, when I uploaded this list template, it all worked!
