Duarte's SharePoint info

Are you going nuts after deploying your workflows & several IISRESETs and you see that it still behaves the same???

If your changes were on the designer editor (for instance changing a method for a if branch condition). After deploying your solution (or manually copying your DLL to the GAC) you need:

   1. Remove the workflow from the list that uses it
   2. Deactivate the Feature of the workflow
   3. Reactivate the feature.
   4. Re-attach the workflow to the list.

Are you see ing this error when you try to create a new page in a SharePoint site?

" List does not exist The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. "

Or are you also seeing this error when you try topen one of your pages?

"Invalid SPListItem. The SPListItem provided is not compatible with a Publishing Page."

Here is my non-sense solution (found after long trial and error an looking online):

1. Go to the Pages library where the file is stored

2. Create a new page, but from a different type than the pages that are failing

3. In the New Page area, select the page layout that is failing and create a test page

4. Your page is created successfully… and now you can see your pages…

A lot of trial & error… made me find this… seems a SharePoint… and not the access denied error & manage schedule errors I found before.

Good Luck!

Most blog engines allow you to display a list of blog posts grouped by month. Unfortunately  SharePoint blog sites do not give you that ability, out of the box.

Here is a simple solution (no codding required) on how to overcome that limitation:

The link "Save site as template" is only available under Look and Feel at the Top Level of the site collection. 
If you are trying to save a site as a template in WSS v3 or MOSS 2007 you need to append _layouts/savetmpl.aspx to your sub sites url. 

1. Supposing your subsite is:

    http://portal.moss2007.com/subsite/default.aspx

2. You would go to

    http://portal.moss2007.com/subsite/_layouts/savetmpl.aspx

     and then you would be able to save the site as a template.

Note: there might be cases where this will not work.

Good luck!

If you notice in SharedServices that:

1. the profile import is enumerating the same number (marked in yellow in the image below), the stop import is non responsive.

2. The search is crawlling for too long, gets stuck in the status "stopping" if you try to stop.

3. Your audiences are not compiling, because the import has not finished (mage below).

These are several syntoms that the service "Office SharePoint Server Search" is not working properly.

How to solve this?

1. In Windows, go to Administration Tools > Services

2. STOPthe service "Office SharePoint Server Search".

3. If step 2 fails, open the Windows Task Manager and kill the proccess "mssearch.exe"

4. Perform IISRESET

5. Go to Administration Tools > Services, and  START the service  "Office SharePoint Server Search".

6. Go to Share Point Central Administration > Shared Services

7. Open the User Profiles and Properties page, and verify if it is importing proper now.

Xtra suggestions:

Reset Search Index:

Now that (hopefully) everything is working fine, we should be concerned about the cause of this issue. Quite likely the search crawll got stuck at some point, and could be the cause for all this trouble. The best is to reset the current Search Index, and rebuilt it.

1. Go to Central Admin > Shared Services > Search Administration

2. Click on "Reset all crawlled content"

3. Go to "Content Sources" start manually a full crawll on the nedded content sources.

Good luck!
