Microsoft will ship the new SharePoint 2010 along with Office 2010 in the first half of next year (Beta - late 2009).
There has been a few questions about the name of SharePoint 2010.
Basically, we presently have three SharePoint server versions:
1. Windows SharePoint Services
2. Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Standard
3. Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Enterprise
From now onwards it will be just Microsoft SharePoint 2010 (without the “office”).
There are a few ways to get SharePoint usage reports (out of the box MOSS 2007 features):
When trying to install MOSS 2007 SP2, you receive this error:
Windows SharePoint services 3.0 Service Pack 2 is not installed. Microsoft strongly recommends that you install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Service Pack 2 before installing this update. Do you want to go to the Microsoft Download Center, where you can download Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Service Pack 2?
The long awaited Service Pack 2 for SharePoint - MOSS 2007 and WSS 3.0 is out! There is much talk about installing it to fix certain security and performance issues.
But wait! Do you have an environment to test the installation? Have you read the known issues of SP2?
Imagine accounting for the time spent waiting for SharePoint to start up in the morning or after a server reboot or an iisreset?
It takes such a long time to load, but after it has loaded, then SharePoint behaves normally. The cause for this is when your Application pool is recycled in IIS. By default it recycles at 2:00AM daily.
The best way to ‘Warm Up’ SharePoint is to run some scripts that would fire up SharePoint in the wee hours of the morning. Read more on how to get this script..
Change your existing host header in SharePoint ( WSS or MOSS 2007 )
Do you want to publish your SharePoint intranet or internet site to your users with a nice friendly url (or hostheader)?
This article can be also used if you want to rename your web application.
When installing SharePoint from the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard, you may ask, ‘what do I do if I want to connect SharePoint using SQL authentication, rather than Microsoft’s Active Directory?’
You may want to connect SharePoint to its configuration database using a locked down SQL user account to isolate your front end website from Active Directory.
Using the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard, it may appear to be impossible to get past the DOMAIN\User_Name as required in the wizard.
Sylvia and I would like to thank all our family and friends who wished, emailed, prayed, blessed & visited for us. A big thank you to my colleagues in Canberra for their wishes and support. A ‘Tea for Nasia Taylor’ has been organised tomorrow at work and more celebrations to come!
I will be updating more Nasia’s pictures on the picasa gallery link.
Finally, Thank you for visiting my site - I hope you enjoyed it!
