Thanks Paul The biggest problem with this was that I had setup the server incorrectly as standalone in the first instance, therefore installing the primary content database into the very restrictive free MS SQL Package and not the full SQL 2008 R2 package that was installed to store all the data in Sharepoint 2010. I had tried to reinstall fully ...

Hi - I've now booked a 5 day residential course for Sharepoint Developer Bootcamp with CourseMonster. It isn't until the start of July but will post an update when I return with a short course review. The course I am attending seems to cover all the items that I was looking for to learn on a Developer Course and was priced very reasonably for a ...

Unfortunately, it wasn't as straighforward as adding the content database to Sharepoint. I restored the WSS_Content Database to the new SQL Server and that was all that was needed. Then, once Sharepoint 2010 had been reinstalled as a Server Farm and the initial configuration was setup I went to Backup and Restore in Central Administration and ...

Thanks Edge, I will have a look today at these :)

Can anyone recommend a good Sharepoint 2010 Training Course for Development? I would ideally like to attend a Classroom Course that encompasses development and maintenance of Sharepoint Server 2010. Have looked at Firebrand Training, although expensive as it is a 7 day intensive course, I am looking for similar to this but around 3 or 5 ...

I managed to fix the problem, but took 2 days to find the issue and get this fixed. The main issue with the problem is in how the package was installed.

Please can you help? Upon arriving into work this morning, I found out that our Night Shift tried to upload several GBs of Photos to their shared photo library on Sharepoint 2010. This also meant that I found out the hard way that the SQL Server in use was the free version and not the Standard SQL 2008 R2 I had installed on the server for the ...

Thanks Tony That makes sense - will create the workflows today and test and let you know if any problems Peter

Yes, you can 'kind of' apply a tag to a document. If you add a keyword to each document (eg HR Documents contain 'HR' in the document filename) you can then create a workflow in Sharepoint Designer that will look for keywords in the filename and then automatically tag the document with the correct metatags, although the downside for this is that ...

I wonder if anyone can shed some light on this problem. I am writing what is a 3 stage workflow for a query management system on our Sharepoint 2010 Server. In the simplest terms, we want the first step to send an email to the user named in the list item to advise a new query has been created. Step 2 would be when the named user makes any ...
