RE: CrystalReports on sharepoint

[Matthew Cosier]

Glad I could be of assistance.

 

That developer needs to be slapped in the face with a large fish.  That
really is a laughable piece of code - I don't think I have ever seen anyone
reference the aspnet_client directly like that before.  Pretty funny J

Mate - you were 100% correct.

The code the developer had included one reference to a url:

 

var url = web.Url;

crystalReportViewer1.ToolbarImagesFolderUrl = url + 

 
"\\aspnet_client\\system_web\\2_0_50727\\CrystalReportWebFormViewer4\\images
\\toolbar
 ";

 

Needless to say, that caused the error. I am now crystalled out.

I have experience with both.

 

Sounds as though it's changed from accepting a relative path to a full path
- I could be wrong, but perhaps you should check the report viewer with
reflector on both versions and see whether this is the case. if it is,
you'll just have to generate the URL differently.

 

That's just my first guess though, would need to see the code to really give
any better type of assessment than that.

I am desperate. anyone has ANY experience with CrystalReports on
SharePoint2010?

Code I am trying to upgrade from 2007 (written by someone else) downloads a
rpt file from a document library to a temp folder on the server, then loads
it, gives it the current parameters and then feeds it to a reportviewer
object. This is where I get a "Invalid URI: The hostname could not be
parsed." Error. Nothing in the logs, no exception thrown in the web part.
Works in 2007, but in 2010 there  is a new version of crystal report runtime
so that could explain it.

RE: CrystalReports on sharepoint

[Matthew Cosier]

If it's as nasty as it sounds, then a rewrite is probably the best option.
As you know, it's often best to just start fresh and salvage as much of the
business requirements as you can from the pre-existing pile of manure.

 

Talking this stuff out loud always helps. the Teddy Bear programming
methodology wins again.

RE: VS2010 - Multi-server deployment

[Paul Noone]

Thanks mate. I couldn't agree more but we don't have the luxury of three farms 
for 2010 at this stage.

Your assumptions about the VS commands are correct. They are apparently limited 
to singel server setups.

I'll try using PS to do some post-build stuff. Thanks.

Perhaps I'm missing something here, but if you perform an Add-SPSolution, then 
an Install-SPSolution  targeted at a web application (-WebApplication) in a 
farm environment, SharePoint will take care of deploying this to all necessary 
servers in the farm (via the timer service).

You're saying that the VS 2010 deployment commands aren't doing this?  Perhaps 
IIS isn't being reset?  Have you told it in the package to perform a 
start/stop?  You can always ditch the commands and execute a custom set of PS 
scripts in the post/pre's in VS instead. (Also, I recommend using 'No 
Activation' if you can help it.).  Your scripts can then be smarter about 
things, and perform an Upgrade-SPSolution instead of Add's and retracts all the 
time, etc.

Plus, I'm not sure if everyone agrees with me on this - but using a farm for 
your dev environment is probably overkill anyway - your test environment and 
staging however, should almost certainly mimic production as much as possible.

RE: SPS2010 - people search error

Yeah, only occurs with people searches. My comments inline below. I'm stumped.




It only occurs with People searches? Sounds like you're not alone.


* Did it EVER work? Yes. We've only noticed the issue after going live 
yesterday.

* Are you using FAST Search? No.

* Look at the query string in the failed URL. If you convert the %20s 
to %22s do you get a result? There are no %20's, it's a space. Replacing the 
space with %20 sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. %22 seems to work all the 
time.

* If you search on "John Sm*" do you get a result? Yes, without issues.

* Are you seeing Event ID 60 on the search server? Only 1, on the WFE - 
dated 3 Dec.

* Do you have more than one Query Component in the farm? Nope.

* Have you recently patched the farm? If so, confirm that the Content

Default search results page? Looks like you've got a dataview wp on there 
somewhere.

I had this on MOSS. Can't remember what I did to resolve but it may have been 
as simple as enabling stemming on the source search web part.

Hi all

Has anyone ever seen the below? It happens in people search, if I search for 
"firstname first-letter-of-surname" and it only occurs intermittently. 
Searching on firstname only works, as does searching on last surname. Any 
ideas? The UPS is running fine, and I don't see any errors...

RE: SPS2010 - people search error

[Paul Noone]

It only occurs with People searches? Sounds like you're not alone.


* Did it EVER work?

* Are you using FAST Search?

* Look at the query string in the failed URL. If you convert the %20s 
to %22s do you get a result?

* If you search on "John Sm*" do you get a result?

* Are you seeing Event ID 60 on the search server?

* Do you have more than one Query Component in the farm?

* Have you recently patched the farm? If so, confirm that the Content 
Access account is correct and not been reverted to Network Service.

* Does an IIS reset on the WFE resolve it?

Open up manifest.xml for starters but also do a full search on http: or https: 
to see if there are any absolute URLs hiding in there.

Eitherway I can use visual studio.  What file should I be looking at for the

Hi Mike,

Yes, WSP, sorry. My head is still halfway in 2007. :)

You can extract it in the same manner. Change the extension to ZIP and then 
open it up and have a look. You won't be able to make and save your 
modifications this way but it may give you an idea as to what's wrong.

You would need to take Ajay's advice on that.

Paul

Hi Paul,

The side is exporting in a .wsp file since it is an actual site and not use a 
list.

Is there a way to extract that?  Also once I edit it, how do I recompile?  
Sorry, this is something I have not done before, nor do we have any other 
support here.

Thanks,

Extract the stp contents and open up the manifest in your favourite text 
editor. Do a search on the source server URL. Sounds like some hard-coded URLs 
to the old site. You *can* correct these and repackage but I'd recommend 
identifying the [problem first, and then correcting it via SharePoint manager 
on the new site, if possible.

Is this a publishing site template by an chance?

Best thing to do is fire up ULS Log Viewer on the server and look at the logs 
for that Correlation ID, that'll give you the right information on what the 
issue is.

Subject: Sharepoint Foundations - Site Template Error

All,

I have two different site collections, one a test environment and the other our 
production environment.  When I save a site in my test environment as a 
template and import it into my production environment, the new site works.  
However I cannot edit any settings.  I save the site as a template, then export 
that to my desktop, then import it into the production site collection and then 
build a new site out of that.


If I go into Site Settings on the new site I get the following error:

[cid:image001.jpg@01CCB3F2.8AE65470]

When I try to get into permissions on this site, I get this error:

[cid:image002.jpg@01CCB3F2.8AE65470]

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks,

Mike
