Excel Services – File Not Found

Admin has defined a trusted location for excel  file in Central Administration.

The location is in reports library in Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007.

The contributor has published an excel file, from Microsoft Office Excel 2007 for the first time. And then edit that file, after that save-close the file.

User open the dashboard page, and found an error message, “File Not Found”.

Of course, then an email came to my Inbox asking that error :-p

Hmm.. new problem, with new toy..

After googling a while, I found why it show an error message.

The reports library was came with versioning. And the file after has been edited, will be saved with minor version.

The solution is contributor must make a major version of that file, with Publish a Major Version menu from dropdown list of list item in reports library.

Mission accomplished

Error 5566 When Open Infopath Form in Sharepoint

Old problem with infopath form services in sharepoint.

Before i forget to make a documentation for this problem solving, I decided to make an article in this blog.

The solution is edit web.config file.

Find this configuration

<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy autoDetect=”true” />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>

Change to

<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy usesystemdefault=”false” proxyaddress=”http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx:yyyy/” bypassonlocal=”true” />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>

“xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” is your proxy server (ISA)

“yyyy” is the port of the proxy.

Error access search settings or user profile properties

This is a little post that i got from another web www.JustGeeking.net.

You can jump here.

During the configuration of a new SharePoint 2007 farm I experienced two separate errors:

1. When access the User Profile Properties page I got “An error has occurred while accessing the SQL Server database or the Office SharePoint Server Search service. If this is the first time you have seen this message, try again later. If this problem persists, contact your administrator.” at the top of the page.

2. When accessing the Search Settings under the SSP administration, I got a page unavailable.

The following steps resolved the issue for me.

1. Go to Central Admin > Operations > Services on server and stop the Office SharePoint Search service on whatever server it is running on.
2. Restart the service on the same server.
3. Do an iisreset /restart from the command prompt on the server that is running the search service.
4. Go to Central Admin > Application Management > Create or Configure this farm’s shared service. Edit the SSP and make sure an Indexer Server is selected.
5. That should resolve both issues.

Thanks for the article, it help me for solving the problem that i got.

Cannot add group domain to Sharepoint group

After doing some search, finally i have an answer for my own question.
The answer is we must a create group domain in Active Directory as Security Group type.
After that we can find and add that group domain in Sharepoint Site Administration.

“Security groups are listed in DACLs that define permissions on resources and objects. When assigning permissions for resources (file shares, printers, and so on), administrators should assign those permissions to a security group rather than to individual users. The permissions are assigned once to the group, instead of several times to each individual user. Each account added to a group receives the rights assigned to that group in Active Directory and the permissions defined for that group at the resource”.

For more information about type of group domain, read this article.

Virtual Server 2005 R2

Ok, i want to start, maybe , trying to implement moss 2007.
First i need a development machine. So I install virtual server 2005 r2 as my research machine.

The interesting feature in virtual server is we can add virtual hard disk (.vhd) that called “Differencing disks”.
We can make a child disk that differ from the parent disk.
The purpose is that we make a hierarchy of our disk, for similar function in other virtual machines.
The parent will be installed similar software/applications that will be consumed for another machine.
And the child will be installed specific applications that we will use for our research.

For more information about vhd types in virtual server 2005 r2, you can visit this link.
