Hi Karl,

 

Spent a long time working with VS2008 workflows under MOSS last year,
and remember experiencing something similar. I'll try and find my notes
on this stuff later on to confirm - but I seem to remember that this
link provided an approach to this issue:

 

http://geeks.netindonesia.net/blogs/hanifku/archive/2008/05/19/modifying
-sharepoint-workflow-task-programmatically-problem-current-task-is-locke
d-by-running-workflow-and-cannot-be-edited.aspx

 

The problem I have with it now upon re-reading, is the fact that setting
allowunsafeupdates to true would be *required* to get this sort of thing
to work ... I'll keep looking through my notes to see if I can find
anything else ...

 

Cheers,

Trevor

Subject: Workflow Task Locking Issue

 

Hi Folks,

 

We're experiencing an issue with a custom workflow designed in VS2008
see below for details:

 

Summary of Issue:

Workflow running on a Form Library in SharePoint. The workflow creates
Tasks on the default Task list in the Site.  No fields have been edited
from default settings on this Task list.  We are seeing a recurring
issue with Tasks locking in Workflows.  

The error we see is as follows:

This task is currently locked by a running workflow and cannot be
edited

 

The Task seems to complete correctly but the Progress % field or the
Status does not get properly updated.  When the Lock occurs we see a
long pause when the user clicks on the Approve button on their Task.
The workflow does not progress but stays in the In Progress state.
The Task that is locked cannot be edited outside the running workflow so
the only option is to terminate the running workflow.  This is not
acceptable because there are many steps in the workflow and it seems the
lock can happen at any of the stages.

 

We have checked the following and all seem to be correct or not
connected to this issue:

 

Permissions

Content Types

Database locks

 

We can see here

/8ec834b6-5408-4079-bdfb-b88d341b36bf , here
http://geekswithblogs.net/MTex/archive/2008/03/01/120117.aspx  and
here http://geek.hubkey.com/2007/09/locked-workflow.html  that other
people are having similar.  None of the steps outlined in those posts
fix the issue we are seeing.

ssl redirect

2009-06-25 Thread Chris Grist
Hi Guys.

Atm sharepoint is running on http/https i want to stop people accessing via 
http. But some have bookmarks/links etc so id like the it to redirect.

Ive tried the following as a 403.4 error asp page:

%
Data = request.servervariables(QUERY_STRING)
URL = replace(Data, 403;, )
URL = replace(URL, http://;, https://;)
response.Status = 200 OK
response.redirect URL
%

However this goes http-https-http in the browser box and comes with a 403 
error likely cause you are required to login

Create a new extended web application for HTTPS, then go into IIS and stop
the HTTP website.  I find that's the easiest way.

This method  uses the HTTP Redirect module which is not installed by default
with IIS7. To install you, You will need to go into the Server Manager and
select it under the Role Services of IIS7/Web Server role.

 Hi all,

 Come across a wierd one..
 I have bunch of old workflows in a 'error occured' state (related to a now
 defunct user account)

 Now normally I would go in, terminate it and restart it without any issues,
 however upon clicking the particular workflow (to bring up its details and
 terminate it) it takes me to the 'Unknown Error' page.
 How the heck can I kill these workflows?

 My googling seemed to indicate it may be permissions related, for safety's
 sake I explicity added myself with full control on the particular doc lib
 but still with no luck.

 Cheers,
 Carl Bergman
