RE: Problem with Webparts [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Have you got a screenshot Fadi?

Does this error replace the entire page or just one or more web parts?

Check there are no absolute URLs set within the web part itself.

Could be that the web part is loading but the content is not.

Hi,



Not sure if anyone has had this problem before, but we have developed a SP site 
and when you hit the site, the webparts work fine, however if you hit them 
through another URL (set up through alternate access mapping) we get the 
following:



"Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web 
page in a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible HTML editor such as Microsoft 
Office SharePoint Designer. If the problem persists, contact your Web server 
administrator."



Has anyone else come across this?

Setting a page's Approval Status

[Zelda Leung]

Hi all,

My apologies if this has been asked before, but is there a way to set
all the "Approval Status" columns of all pages in a site collection to
"Pending" via stsadm or something similar?  The pages are all using the
out of the box publishing workflows if that affects the solution?

Cheers,
Zelda

RE: Setting a page's Approval Status

[Jeremy Thake]

I believe you'd have to use the SharePoint Object Model (C#/VB.NET code) to 
modify the status of a workflow associated with a Page (which is basically a 
List Item (SPListItem) in a SharePoint List (SPList).

I would advise against changing the List Item status column metadata directly 
as this is done by the Workflow as it progresses through its states, and 
therefore you really do need to trigger the workflow to make it change the 
status so it stays in sync.

RE: Setting a page's Approval Status

[Zelda Leung]

Under normal circumstances I would completely agree.  The problem in
this scenario is that the group who are in charge of checking pages went
through all the pages, checked them, and now wish to have our approvers
approve them, but they didn't set the pages they checked to "Submit for
approval"!

 

Approvers are only interested in that little "Approve" button at the top
of the page, and the people who checked them have no desire to go
through the thousands of pages on the site again to set them to be
pending approval.  Hence I'm left trying to work out how to make
everything set to pending approval :-(

 

I'll have a crack at coding something to change the workflow status :-)

 

Thanks,

Zelda

RE: Setting a page's Approval Status

[Jeremy Thake]

If you are using MOSS you can use the 'Manage Content and Structure' and view 
pages with a particular status and maybe be able to bulk 'submit for approval', 
I know you can bulk 'Publish' never tried submit for approval.

Permission issues

[Paul Noone]

Hi guys,

We're getting permission and authentication issues (again) which I'm hoping 
someone else has experienced and found a resolution to. Everything was working 
just fine until very recently. No one knows of (or is willing to admit) any 
network related changes.

Scenario: I grant a user contribute  access to a folder in a team site shared 
library using Mange Permissions. I provide the URL to the folder and when 
navigating to it they receive an Access Denied screen. If they click "request 
access" and access is again granted, they continue to get the Access Denied 
screen.

I have checked and rechecked the permissions on the folder and also at the 
library level (where they have Limited Access). The user exists in all the 
appropriate AD groups and can happily access all the top-level sites.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? It's driving me nuts. 
Could the mysterious ViewFormPagesLockDown feature be in any way responsible? 
[Just clutching at straws.]

Kind regards,

Paul

I have seen this before intermittently and it was an issue with the Domain 
Controller and Kerberos configuration at server level.

But also, are you patched up to the latest patches for SharePoint (December 
2008 Cumulative Update)?

It could possibly be a:

* Server caching issue?

* Client browser caching issue?

* Are you in a farm environment and propagation isn't work properly to 
web front end servers?

RE: Permission issues

[Brian Farnhill]

I don't think the ViewFormPagesLockDown feature is to blame here, that is only 
going to affect anonymous users from what I know of it, so if your user is 
authenticated and logged in then there won't be any dramas at all. The easy way 
to verify that though would be to see if they can create a list item somewhere 
in the same site, if they can then there is definately nothing going on with 
that feature.

Is there anything in the 12 log to indicate what else could be going wrong 
there?

Subject: Permission issues

Hi guys,

We're getting permission and authentication issues (again) which I'm hoping 
someone else has experienced and found a resolution to. Everything was working 
just fine until very recently. No one knows of (or is willing to admit) any 
network related changes.

Scenario: I grant a user contribute  access to a folder in a team site shared 
library using Mange Permissions. I provide the URL to the folder and when 
navigating to it they receive an Access Denied screen. If they click "request 
access" and access is again granted, they continue to get the Access Denied 
screen.

I have checked and rechecked the permissions on the folder and also at the 
library level (where they have Limited Access). The user exists in all the 
appropriate AD groups and can happily access all the top-level sites.

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? It's driving me nuts. 
Could the mysterious ViewFormPagesLockDown feature be in any way responsible? 
[Just clutching at straws.]

Kind regards,

Paul

RE: Permission issues

[Paul Noone]

A bit more digging around seems to point to the Profile Import.

Firstly, the scheduled imports aren't running. Neither is the compilation 
schedule for Audiences.

They are set. And there are no errors. They're just not running.

The timer service is running but the Timer Job status window is showing very 
large and consistent gaps.

Don't know whether any of this is related but it should probably be seen to.

Otherwise the boxes are pretty well up-to-date. Users are running IE6 or IE7.

I'll just keep digging. No doubt the problem will resolve itself before I find 
the cause...

I have seen this before intermittently and it was an issue with the Domain 
Controller and Kerberos configuration at server level.

But also, are you patched up to the latest patches for SharePoint (December 
2008 Cumulative Update)?

It could possibly be a:

* Server caching issue?

* Client browser caching issue?

* Are you in a farm environment and propagation isn't work properly to 
web front end servers?

RE: Permission issues

[Wampers, Wilson [Talent International]]

Hi Paul,

 

I've encountered similar issues when using AD Groups combined with
SharePoint Groups. (in a Kerberos environment).

This appears to cause functionality loss in particular, Presence,
Save-As functionality, Site Membership, and My SharePoint Sites and
perhaps elsewhere to?

When resorting to Individual AD Accounts assigned to SharePoint Groups
there doesn't seem to be any functionality loss.

Hope this helps.

Kind Regards, Wilson
