Commented Feature: CKS:EBE german template not working

dseara — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 18:53:02 GMT

CKS:EBE 2.0 Final Release

The EBE is not working in the german version. After installing the feature on a german website, the default.aspx page cannot be found anymore. When navigating to a post, the post is displayed in the old sharepoint fashion, without any enhancement.

Commented Issue: EBE: Some default themes not compatible with IE6

Heather — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 15:24:47 GMT

Hi,

Just bringing some attention to a minor xhtml/css issue :)

For example, the theme I'm using (Clean) isn't compatible with IE6 it seems. Been testing it on a few different browsers but every time it's to be opened in IE6 the "content" of the posts are displayed long way down the page after all the menus. - Not only on one machine but on all IE6 I've ran.

Just a thought that this might want to be fixed for a coming release..

Cheers

New Post: Comment Box Width

ReneHezser — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 11:14:12 GMT

Hi Roger,

you could set the width:

<asp:TextBox cssclass="commentsBox" runat="server" id="idComment" TextMode="MultiLine" rows="8" Width="435"/>

New Post: Comment Box Width

rhalbheer — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 07:59:49 GMT

Hi,

I know that this is probably an easy and naïve question but I could not figure it out :(. I am runnign my blog on EBE - the latest version. I was - without a lot of problems - able to add the Captcha to my blog theme. However, the box where you can add comments is very, very narrow. I tried now to figure out how I can increase the width - but failed.

Can somebody get me a pointer?

Thank you

Roger

New Post: CKS FBA: Client Integration with Office is not working.

achang — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 20:02:12 GMT

Recently, we upgrade our MOSS server to SP2 in hoping to resolve some issue with client intergration of Office 2007 and MOSS in FBA mode according to Microsoft.

However, we are running into problem when Word attempts to open the document directly from MOSS.

The Form Logon Screen does not accept the username and password within Word. And, it return with message: Error, An error has occured on the server. Troubshoot issues with Windows SharePoint Services.

If clicking Go Back to site on the top of the window. it shows Error: Access Denied.

This box has ECTS as well as CKS FBA installed.

We have another MOSS server farm that has only ECTS installed does not have this issue. This leaves me to believe that CKS FBA may not work well with CI of Office 2007.

Is anyone experiencing the same problem?

Thanks for the assistance.

Alex

New Post: CKS:UGE template

dmccollough — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 14:27:59 GMT

I'm the Vice-President of a SharePoint User group and we are using the CKS:UGE (User Group Edition) for our web site. One of the officers of the group has gotten somebody to donate a theme to our group for the site.

The theme is supposed to work with out of the box templates for a Team Site, Document Site, Workspace Site.

What did the CKS:UGE use as it's base template when it was created ? Was it a Team Site ?

New Post: CKS Forms Based Authentication Solution - email not working

mrsalvo — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 20:05:40 GMT

Ok I found the issue, the base code assuems that your default site will be the public facing url (ie: www.somedomain.com), this is why the pending emaisl work. They approval/denial emails don't work because your probably using windows authentication - and when the notification goes to grab the xsl it is not presenting credentials on request. Here is the revised code that needs to be added:

                //CS - added network credentials to remove the 401 error
                XmlUrlResolver resolver = new XmlUrlResolver();

                resolver.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
                XmlReaderSettings settings = new XmlReaderSettings();
                settings.XmlResolver = resolver;
                XmlReader ReaderObj = XmlReader.Create(xsltTemplateFile, settings);

                //xslEmailTransform.Load(xsltTemplateFile);
                xslEmailTransform.Load(ReaderObj);

This goes in the email.cs file in the public static bool SendEmail(SPWeb web, string emailTo, string xsltTemplateFile, IDictionary xslValues) method. You can email me for the corrected WSP (csalvo@joppasoftware.com) if you don't write code.

I am having the same issue, I checked hte logs and found this:

The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() at System.Xml.XmlDownloadManager.GetNonFileStream(Uri uri, ICredentials credentials) at System.Xml.XmlUrlResolver.GetEntity(Uri absoluteUri, String role, Type ofObjectToReturn) at System.Xml.Xsl.Xslt.XsltLoader.CreateReader(Uri uri, XmlResolver xmlResolver) at System.Xml.Xsl.Xslt.XsltLoader.Load(Compiler compiler, Object stylesheet, XmlResolver xmlResolver) at System.Xml.Xsl.Xslt.Compiler.Compile(Object stylesheet, XmlResolver xmlResolver, QilExpression& qil) at System.Xml.Xsl.XslCompiledTransform.CompileXsltToQil(Object stylesheet, XsltSettings settings, XmlResolver stylesheetResolver) at System.Xml.Xsl.XslCompiledTransform.LoadInternal(Object stylesheet, Xsl 464b54ee-b390-4559-9cea-f750ef4e5555

Looks like a permission issue but it doesn't make sense as this is being run as user with admin rights on the site settings. I changed the emails directory to allow everyone access and I am still getting this. Any ideas?

New Post: TAG Cloud

naijacoder — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 07:00:46 GMT

Hi there,
I must say i nice compenet though.
But i have a question.When i add the Tag Cloud and add some tags to the list it does show up but it all bolded with big fonts but you did mention on codplex that
Tag Cloud web part – displaying tags in weighted format. The popular a tag is, the bigger it’s shown.

But mine just showed big fonts straight away

Also is this the latest build http://www.wsssearch.com/tagging.html ??

You also said:

Tag Browser web part – displaying items associated with a tag. The order of items can be customized.(Where can this be customised?)
Related Tag Cloud web part – a tag cloud only displaying related tags co-existed with a tag.(I didn't get to see this webpart from the site above)
URL Browser web part – displaying link items sorted on number of saves. This web part is used for social tagging/bookmarking scenario.(How to set this up?)

Thanks

New Post: User Group edition Wiki has no Edit toolbar

Commented Issue: CAPTCHA image

frangarpu — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 09:27:31 GMT

The CAPTCHA image validation does not display an image
Comments: ** Comment from web user: frangarpu **

I had the same error and finally I found out the solution. I had 2 processes for the same IIS pool. The captcha uses the HttpContext cache to store the hint word. As the processes don't share their memory, the image generator process couldn't find the cached word. If you use a single process the captcha works fine.

Source code checked in, #28082

I'm also getting the error "A Membership Provider has not been configured correctly. Check the web.config setttings for this web application" on three brand new farms.

The solution worked prior to the SharePoint SP2, so I'm wondering if there is something that has affected this. Unfortunately, the inability to work with the FBA users in SharePoint directly, has caused me to createa small web app to manage FBA Users, which also creates teh confusion and aggravation of visiting a separate site just to create, update, and delete users in the FBA database.

As it's been more than two months since the developer's last post (stating that he does not have time), in response to a request for a fix, leads me to believe that this project has been abandoned. It would probably be in the user's best interest in finding an alternate solution, such as the original FBA solution posted on codeplex: http://www.codeplex.com/fba
