Popfly and Sharepoint integration already?

Go and see the video of Mike Gannotti's where he tells you how to use Sharepoint as a datasource for PopFly: (3 datas sources in connection - no code) If you wanna know what PopFly is read this little snippet from Channel9: "You probably haven't heard of it, but you're also probably going to start hearing a lot about it in the near future. Popfly is being announced today - as I'm posting this, actually. To keep it short and simple so you can get right to watching the video, Popfly makes it easy for non-devs to create web sites, mashups, and more. Drag, drag, click - you've got a Flikr + Virtual Earth mashup. You can even point and click your way to a Vista Gadget. " (source Robin Meure).

SharePoint Farm Least Privilege and hotfix packages

SharePoint Farm Least Privilege and hotfix packages: "As previously discussed, it is possible to configure your SharePoint Farm to abide by the principle of least privilege. However there are some additional steps required if you have deployed any of the SharePoint Server 2007 hotfix packages dated later than April 12th 2007.
For the most part, the SharePoint Configuration Wizard (SCW) and Central Administration take care of assigning the necessary rights and group memberships. There are two exceptions with the RTM bits:

Excel 2007 can now do two-way sync to a SharePoint List

In Excel 2003 you were able to sync amendments both from a Excel 2003 spreadsheet to a SharePoint List and from a SharePoint List to an Excel 2003 spreadsheet. But in Excel 2007 this is no longer the case...

Well it was until Microsoft released an Excel 2007 Add-in.

This is a must install if you are upgrading to Office 2007 from Office 2003, otherwise your users will cry.
The Excel 2007 Add-in, can be downloaded from: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=25836e52-1892-4e17-ac08-5df13cfc5295&DisplayLang=en

Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies Team Blog : HiSoftware AccRepair for SharePoint Designer and AccMonitor bring accessibility compliance to SharePoint based websites

Since the widely referenced Improvements in Accessibility blog entry was posted here over a year, we have received numerous inquiries about how to further improve accessibility of SharePoint based websites up to the point of being fully compliant with standards such as the U.S. government’s Section 508 and the W3C’s Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 1.0.

Although we don’t have any updates beyond the aforementioned blog entry to announce right now, a few of our partners have been successful in helping customers implement accessibility compliant websites such as Wise Woman, and Plymouth Hospitals.

The SharePoint product group recognizes the importance of accessibility, especially for Internet facing public websites that have been built with SharePoint technology. To provide a channel for dialogue between our customers and partners with us as well as amongst themselves, I’m pleased to announce the creation of the Microsoft hosted SharePoint – Accessibility online forum.

With HiSoftware’s announcement last week of AccRepair for SharePoint Designer and in conjunction with AccMonitor, many customers will be able to design and implement accessibility compliant SharePoint based websites without costly consulting services or development resources. The following guest blog entry is written by Robert B. Yonaitis, Chief Technology Officer at HiSoftware.

Office SharePoint Server at Microsoft: 12TB and counting

MScott St. Jean is a program manager in Microsoft IT.

He makes sure that the largest SharePoint installation in the world keeps working. Mark Swenson is also a program manager in Microsoft IT.

His job is making sure that our intranet search is working, including things like making sure people can't find documents that they shouldn't have rights to. I sat down with them to talk about what it takes to migrate, and index, and upgrade 12 terabytes of data to the latest version.

If that wasn’t challenging enough, they started working with the products before they were the latest version, when they were still under development.

Their experience shook out a lot of bugs that were addressed before the real world had to deal with them. In addition to deployment and migration, we chatted about the backup and restore procedures for this multiple terabyte installation, and what happens when you tell everyone in the org to go ahead and create their own SharePoint sites. (in an outtake that I, um, took out, I asked the guys for their picks for the SuperBowl, and got one of the team names wrong. minus 100 cool points for me).

Lorsque l'opération Stsadm.exe échoue même, l'outil de ligne de commande Stsadm.exe ne peut afficher le message "Opération a correctement terminé".

Pour déterminer si l'outil de ligne de commande Stsadm.exe a été exécuté avec un succès, examinez les fichiers Unified Logging Service (ULS) qui se trouvent dans le dossier suivant :

Opération se terminer avec un succès.

L'élément ContentType n'est pas créé parce que le nom ContentType d'élément comprend du espace de fin, dans ce cas correctement.

Performing a SharePoint Gradual Upgrade using STSADM

In the Chapter 24 of the Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007 Administrator's Companion, I detailed how to use the STSADM command to upgrade a number of site collections using the Gradual upgrade approach. This was based on knowledge that was available during the beta. With RTM code, the process is as follows:

Note: Ensure that the root site collection is upgraded before any other site collection in the Web Application. If multiple site collections are upgraded at one time, the root site collection must be included in the first set of site collections selected to be upgraded.

Joel Oleson's SharePoint Land: "How to Create a Blog and Get Search Results
From my last post I got a few questions about how or where to create a blog. Lately I've been thinking about how I can encourage more and more to blog since I've been seeing the benefits from those who blog and suffering as a result of those who fail to share. We speak of all the duplication we all do as a result of not being able to get search results. There's simply a ton of content behind the firewall that with special consideration and a bit of effort could benefit everyone. Be sure to find out what your corporate policy if there is one on blogging, but if you're reading this, you've likely read a few blogs and hence have benefited from bloggers. So comes the clarion call... Join the SharePoint Blogging Revolution!"

Change passwords used for administration accounts (Office SharePoint Server)

Use this task to change the password information for several features, services, and Web applications in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. Domain policies often require that domain account passwords be updated periodically.

This change provides additional security in case one of the passwords might have been compromised.

You can configure the various features, services, and Web applications of Office SharePoint Server 2007 to run as a domain account.

Because domain policy might require passwords to expire regularly, you might have to change the passwords for these accounts for these features, services, and Web applications to continue to function properly. Updated: April 19, 2007.

Guidelines using SharePoint 2007

Maybe it is time to write down some guidelines that you should keep in mind while working with SharePoint 2007, or you could just ignore them as well. I found these guidelines in Blogs, articles on the internet but I wanted to group them together. ...

http://www.u2u.info/Blogs/Kevin/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=7

These guidelines are not hard limits, meaning if you have 2005 lists on a site, your site will still work. The only thing that could happen by adding more items is that your performance could decrease.

Using the BDC feature of MOSS 2007 to interact with information stored in external data sources, for example SQL Server and Oracle data bases - Part 2

Many enterprises manage a lot of information stored in data bases that are distinct that the ones used by SharePoint (SQL Server), for example internal applications like CRM’s, ERP’s or any other application developed by themselves, we could say “in house”. Now, we know that all the documents we upload to SharePoint Sites are stored in SQL Server. So, we have SharePoint data from one hand, and external information stored in other data sources on the other hand.
Is there any chance to provide final users the possibility to have only one web site to work with SharePoint data and also to interact with information stored in external data sources, through the same SharePoint Site?

Guess What!!, we have now the power of the Business Data Catalog, that allow us to interact with information stored in distinct sources and not necessarily need to be in SharePoint data bases. What’s the beauty of this, we can provide to our users the possibility to have one site (site collection) working with SharePoint data, from document libraries, lists and everything you know from SharePoint, but also with other kind of data…external data.

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Technologies

The Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Technologies is a Web download that provides features for running a report server within a larger deployment of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 or Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. (see : http://blogs.msdn.com/sharepoint/archive/2007/02/19/microsoft-sql-server-2005-sp2-reporting-services-integration-with-wss-3-0-and-moss-2007.aspx and

5.0 Features in This Release (in english - french and...) :

1. This section summarizes the available features when you run a report server in SharePoint integrated mode.
2. Use the revised Reporting Services Configuration tool to create a report server database in SharePoint integrated mode.
3. Use the new report server configuration pages in Central Administration to grant the service accounts access to the SharePoint configuration and content databases.
4. Use SharePoint security to control access to report server content and operations.
5. Add reports and models that you created in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services design tools to a SharePoint library. You can publish reports from Report Designer, or use the Upload action on a SharePoint library to upload any report server item. If you publish the files, be sure to specify fully qualified URLs.

An example URL for a file uploaded to Shared Documents on the top-level site of a SharePoint Web application might be :

http://example-server-name/Shared Documents/CompanySales.rdl.

The URL must include a file name extension.

If the library is on a site, you must also include any sites and subsites before the library.
---
For more information,
see "Deploying Reports, Models, and Shared Data Sources to a SharePoint Site" in SQL Server Books Online.
---
Create new shared data source (.rsds) files from a SharePoint site to use with the reports and models that you add to the library. A new file name extension named .rsds is introduced in this release; it is used for shared data source files that you create and store in a library.
Use the new Report Viewer Web Part to view reports.

Use Report Builder from a SharePoint site. You can open or modify an existing Report Builder report definition file from a library. You can load a model in Report Builder to create new reports from report model (.smdl) files that have been uploaded or published to a SharePoint library.

Use new Web pages and configuration options to set permissions and properties on reports (.rdl), models (.smdl), resources, and shared data sources (.rsds) that you add or create on a SharePoint site. You can also use Web application pages to define schedules and subscriptions.
---
Note:
Earlier versions of Reporting Services include two Web Parts that provide minimal integration between a report server and a SharePoint site.
Those Web Parts are not part of the Reporting Services Add-in and have different requirements and functionality.
---
For more information
about how those Web Parts compare with the Web Part that is included in the Reporting Services Add-in, see "Comparing Levels of Integration Across Versions of Reporting Services and SharePoint Technologies" in SQL Server Books Online.

Changing the theme when a new SharePoint 2007 site is created.

Posted by Scot Hillier under ApressNo Comments

A common need is to change the theme (and the alternate style sheet) of a site when it is created. In order to do this in SharePoint 2007, you must create a feature that makes the changes and then either “staple” the feature to a site or reference the feature within the site definition.

I have created a feature that you can use to make these changes.

It can be found at http://codegallery.gotdotnet.com/features.

A nice idea, I was talking to Charles Arnold after the last STC-Suncoast chapter meeting about using wikis as project documentation tools. Neil Perlin just presented on Web 2.0, and referenced James Surowiecki’s The Wisdom of Crowds: Why the Many Are Smarter Than the Few and How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economies, Societies and Nations. Surowiecki’s main idea is that collective wisdom almost always outstrips individual wisdom....

Plan for administrative and service accounts (Office SharePoint Server)

Use this article to plan for the account requirements and recommendations for accounts that are required to install, configure, and use Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.You must provide credentials for these accounts when you run Setup and during configuration. This article does not discuss accounts for which you do not need to configure or provide credentials.The accounts are grouped according to scope. If an account has a limited scope, you might need to plan multiple accounts for this category. For example, if you are implementing multiple Shared Services Providers (SSPs), you must designate multiple SSP accounts.After you complete installation and configuration of accounts, ensure that you do not use the local system account to perform administration tasks or to browse sites. For example, do not use the same account that is used to run setup to perform administration tasks.And also see all the part on Server farm-level accounts...

SharePoint Server 2007 Code Sample: Item-Level Auditing

Brief Description : This code sample shows you how to create an item-level auditing view programmatically in three different ways: using a custom SharePoint list, through the Excel client, and by manipulating the open XML file format to display auditing history using Excel Services on an application page.

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 provides auditing by default but it does not give the ability for a non-administrator to view the auditing history of a specific document or item in a list.

This code sample shows a developer how to extend this auditing functionality to create an item-level auditing view in three different ways:

1. using a custom SharePoint list,
2. through the Excel client,
3. by manipulating the open XML file format to display auditing history using Excel Services on an application page.

It is accompanied by a thorough white paper describing the code as well as a setup document.
