    Algunos issues de autenticación con sitios web (Podria aplicar para sitios de SharePoint)

    Te ha pasado esto?

    1. Error message when you try to access a server locally by using its FQDN or its CNAME alias after you install Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1: "Access denied" or "No network provider accepted the given network path"

    Consider the following scenario. You install Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) on a Windows Server 2003-based computer. After you do this, you experience authentication issues when you try to access a server locally by using its fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or its CNAME alias in the following Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path:

    \\servername\sharename

    In this scenario, you experience one of the following symptoms:

    • You receive repeated logon windows.
    • You receive an "Access denied" error message.
    • You receive a "No network provider accepted the given network path" error message.
    • Event ID 537 is logged in the Security event log.
    Note You can access the server by using its FQDN or its CNAME alias from another computer in the network other than this computer on which you installed Windows Server 2003 SP1. Additionally, you can access the server on the local computer by using the following paths:
    • \\IPaddress-of-local-computer
    • \\Netbiosnameor \\ComputerName

    Check this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926642

    2. You receive error 401.1 when you browse a Web site that uses Integrated Authentication and is hosted on IIS 5.1 or a later version

    When you use the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or a custom host header to browse a local Web site that is hosted on a computer that is running Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.1 or a later version, you may receive an error message that resembles the following:

    HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed

    This issue occurs when the Web site uses Integrated Authentication and has a name that is mapped to the local loopback address.
    Note You only receive this error message if you try to browse the Web site directly on the server. If you browse the Web site from a client computer, the Web site works as expected.
    Additionally, an event message that resembles the following event message is logged in the Security Event log. This event message includes some strange characters in the value for the Logon Process entry:

    Event Type: Failure Audit
    Event Source: Security
    Event Category: Logon/Logoff
    Event ID: 537
    Date: Date
    Time: Time
    User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
    Computer: Computer_Name
    Description: Logon Failure:
    Reason: An error occurred during logon
    User Name: User_Name
    Domain: Domain_Name
    Logon Type: 3
    Logon Process: Ðùº
    Authentication Package: NTLM
    Workstation Name: Computer_Name
    Status code: 0xC000006D
    Substatus code: 0x0
    Caller User Name: -
    Caller Domain: -
    Caller Logon ID: -
    Caller Process ID: -

    Office 2003 y Office 2007 con SharePoint 2007

    Este es tu caso?, tienes en tu equipo Office 2003 y Office 2007 y trabajas o tienes acceso en tu empresa a sitios creados con SharePoint 2007?

    Cuando tratas de visualizar una lista de información de SharePoint en vista de Hoja de cálculo te funciona bien o te aparece una ventana del Internet Explorer donde te dice que necesitas ciertos requerimientos, pero no encuentras el problema.

    Error al tratar de visualizar en vista de hoja de cálculo una lista de SharePoint

    Problema

    Cuando intentas editar por medio de Hoja de Datos información de una lista de SharePoint  para hacer una actualización masiva, en lugar de presentar la hoja de datos similar a la de Excel con el contenido de la biblioteca arroja un mensaje de error.

    ActiveXError

    Una posible Solución

    • Cerrar todos los internet Explorer que estén abiertos
    • Enseguida realizar los siguientes pasos:
      1. Hacer un respaldo del registry
      2. Abrir inicio y ejecutar
      3. Teclear regedit y presionar enter
      4. En el registro ir a la carpeta HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility
      5. Buscar el registro {65BCBEE4-7728-41A0-97BE-14E1CAE36AAE}, una vez encontrado eliminar.
      6. Una vez que fue eliminado, abrir Internet Explorer y comprobar que funcione correctamente.
      7. Finalmente si esto no funciona intenta registrar de nuevo el assembly stslist.dll “regsvr32.exe stslist.dll”

    Causa

    Esto ocurre al tener versiones combinadas de Microsoft Office 2007 y 2003, la recomendación es tener Office 2007 como única versión de Office y la recomendación es que sea Professional.

    La instalación de Microsoft Office 2007 por defecto ya trae activa la opción del componente de compatibilidad para Windows SharePoint Services, en caso de modificar la instalación por defecto verificar que traiga activa la opción como la imagen, esta opción la pueden encontrar en la sección Office Tools.

    OfficePro

    Si se cuenta con Office 2007 es recomendable instalar Internet Explorer 7.

    Si se cuenta con Office 2003 instalar el componente de compatibilidad que viene con Office 2003 Profesional

    Installation Recommendation for a fresh SharePoint Server

    To keep all files in a SharePoint installation up-to-date, the following sequence is recommended.

    1. Service Pack 2 for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and language packs
    2. Service Pack 2 for Office SharePoint Server 2007 and language packs
    3. Bugfix 971620 (which fix the trial issue, this fix will be included in the next round of cumulative update)
    4. June Cumulative Update package for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0
    5. June Cumulative Update package for Office SharePoint Server 2007

    Please note: Start from April Cumulative Update, the packages will no longer install on a farm without a service pack installed. You must have installed either Service Pack 1 (SP1) or SP2 prior to the installation of the cumulative updates.

    After applying the preceding updates, run the SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard or “psconfig –cmd upgrade –inplace b2b -wait” in command line. This needs to be done on every server in the farm with SharePoint installed.

    The version of content databases should be 12.0.6510.5000 after successfully applying these updates.

    Error messages when crawling content sources in SharePoint: "Event ID 2436" and "Access is denied. Also reference to (0x80041205).

    IntranetEmpresa

    Al momento de querer iniciar un Full Crawl Log, me marca el siguiente error.

    IntranetEmpresaCrawlingError

    Les recomiendo lo siguiente:

    1. Revisa si en el Event Viewer de tu server hay algún error con el EventID “2436”. Also reference to (0x80041205).

    2. Revisa este artículo y ve si coincide con los síntomas que experimentas: http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx?id=971382 (Error messages when crawling content sources in SharePoint: "Event ID 2436" and "Access is denied") –

    Access is denied. Check that the Default Content Access Account has access to this content, or add a crawl rule to crawl this content.
    (The item was deleted because it was either not found or the crawler was denied access to it.)

    Revisa si en tu caso la Web Application que estas usando para indexar el contenido usa host headers o le aplicaste un alias al momento de crearla o posteriormente como un Alternate Access Mapping (AAM), es decir en vez de que diga http://servername:<port>, que diga algo asi como http://intranet.empresa.com

    Crawling of content in SharePoint fails for sites that use host headers. Sites that use the NETBIOS name of the server are crawled successfully.

    Issues that the hotfix package fixes
    This hotfix fixes the following issue:

    929360 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929360/ ) You cannot create a new document or check out an existing document in a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 document library when you have multiple versions of Office installed

    This hotfix package fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

    • Internet Explorer crashes (stops responding) when you try to open an Office document in a SharePoint document library
      You connect to a document library in a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 site or in a Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site by using Windows Internet Explorer 7 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 6. However, when you try to open a Microsoft Office document, Internet Explorer crashes (stops responding).
      This problem occurs if the following conditions are true, in the order in which they are presented:
      • You install a Microsoft Office 2003 product on the computer.
      • You install one or more 2007 Office system programs on the computer.
      • You repair or update the installation of an Office 2003 product.
      In this scenario, the older version of the Name.dll file becomes the registered version. When the Owssupp.dll file is used, it tries to use functionality that is not available. This condition causes Internet Explorer to crash (stop responding).

    Conozca Una de las opciones de administracion de SharePoint, por linea de comando - STSADM

    Los Administradores de SharePoint sabes que aparte de la Administración que podemos hacer del producto por medio de la interfaz gráfica o del sitio buen de Administración llamado Administración Central o Central Administration, tenemos también la opción de usar un comando, llamado stsadm.

    Por ahí está también la versión gráfica del comando…

    Pero tenemos toda la referencia del mismo en este artículo en TechNet, que les recomiendo revisar.

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263384.aspx

    Recién se liberó un nuevo diagrama dinpamico que le ayuda a los administradores de SharePoint a identificar y encontrar el comando que requiera según la actividad que desee efectuar, esta muy simpático.

    Cuentan con un diagrama inicial, y algunos filtros para buscar, dentro de la caja de texto ingresar la palabra que les interesa relacionada a la acción, por ejemplo create, para crear un site.

    stsadm1

    Y en automático el diagrama se modifica para presentar las opciones posibles referentes a la acción que se está buscando realizar.

    stsadm2

    Este simpático nuevo aditamento de TechNet lo pueden encontrar en esta dirección:

    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/office/sharepointserver/cc948709.aspx

    Les recomiendo de igual forma ver los mapas que mindsharp pone disponibles sobre el stsadm y varias otras cosas interesantes sobre SharePoint.

    Por último, la recomendación del uso del pipe o “|”.

    Esa me gusta mucho, ejemplo, si quiero crear u sitio pero no recuerdo como se llama la operación exactamente, podría escribir lo siguiente:

    stsadm | find “create”

    Y a continuación me regresaría en la línea de comando una lista únicamente de los operadores que tienen la palabra create, como por ejemplo createsite.

    Si quieren conocer más información sobre esta opción, les invito a que consulten el artículo a travéz de los amigos PFEs de US (From The Field).

    Project Server 2007 Performance Testing White Paper and Performance Lab Kit

    La herramienta de Microsoft por excelencia para el manejo y administración de proyectos a nivel corporativo es Project Server, actualmente versión 2007. Este se integra con SharePoint para ofrecer interesantes beneficios para el almacenamiento de documentos relacionados a proyectos, tareas o entregables (deliveries), y de igual forma para apoyar un poco con la parte de colaboración –permisos, flujos, etc-

    Bueno, pues se ha liberado un nuevo Kit de apoyo a la medición de Performance para implementaciones de Project Server 2007, un whitepaper o documento y también un lab.

    The white paper answers the following often asked questions:

    • Key metrics for performance
    • Test scenarios (open, save, publish projects, submit timesheet, submit task updates, etc...)
    • Test results for:
      • Access PWA Home Page
      • Submit Task Updates, Approve Task Updates
      • Submit Timesheets, Approve Timesheets
      • Etc...
    • Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 Performance Testing (white paper)

    This white paper contains a description of an actual performance tuning lab for Microsoft Office Project Server 2007.

    The first chapter (“Running a Project Server 2007 Performance Test Lab”), describes how to run performance tests against a Office Project Server 2007 deployment by using Visual Studio Team System 2008 and a set of community-based tools built for the purpose.

    The second chapter (“Test Environment”), documents the specifics of the lab environment that was used for the tests we ran for collecting data for this white paper.

    The third chapter (“Test Results”), describes in detail the test scenarios that were conducted, and it summarizes the data collected for every scenario.

    The Project Server 2007 Performance Lab Kit contains two Visual Studio solutions/tools to help you test your farm environment for capacity planning purposes: the “EPMTestTools” and the “EPM Stress Test” solution.

    Taxonomia y algunos conceptos basicos sobre manejo de informacion en SharePoint 2007

    Cuando usar una Web Application independiente: (Que es una Web Application, o Aplicación Web desde el punto de vista de SharePoint, para qué me sirve o cuando necesito una?)

    Generally speaking, use dedicated Web applications to:

    • Separate content available to anonymous users from content available to authenticated users.

    • Isolate users. For example, you can ensure that partners do not have access to intranet content by placing partner sites in a separate Web application.

    • Enforce permissions. A dedicated Web application provides the opportunity to enforce permissions by policies by using the Policy for Web Application page in Central Administration. For example, you can create a policy to explicitly deny write access to one or more groups of users. Policies for a Web application are enforced regardless of permissions configured on individual sites or documents within the Web application.

    • Optimize database performance. Applications achieve better performance if they are placed in Web applications with other applications of similar data characteristics. For example, the data characteristics of My Sites typically include a large number of sites that are small in size. In contrast, team sites typically encompass a smaller number of very large sites. By placing these two different types of sites in separate Web applications, the resulting databases are composed of data with similar characteristics, which optimizes database performance.

    • Optimize manageability. Because creating separate Web applications results in separate sites and databases, you can implement different limits for each site's Recycle Bin, expiration, and size, and negotiate different service-level agreements. For example, you might allow more time to restore sites that are not critical to your business.

     

    Respecto al uso de site Collections: (Que es un Site Collection o Colección de Sitios, desde el punto de vista de SharePoint, para qué me sirve o cuando necesito una?)

    Site collections

    A site collection is a set of Web sites that have the same owner and share administration settings. Each site collection contains a top-level Web site and can contain one or more subsites.

    Capacity

    The recommended guideline for acceptable performance is to implement fewer than 50,000 site collections per Web application. Scaling out by distributing site collections across multiple database servers provides additional storage capacity and throughput.

    Sharing and isolation

    Site collections introduce several sharing and isolation opportunities that affect permissions, navigation, and feature deployment.

    The following items can be shared within a site collection and cannot be shared across site collections:

    • Master pages

    • Page layouts

    • Images

    • Site templates

    Additionally, permissions and navigation are isolated at the site collection level in the following ways:

    • Subsites within a site collection can inherit permissions from the top-level site.

    • Site collections cannot inherit permissions from other site collections.

    • There is no built-in navigation from one site collection to another.

    Finally, Office SharePoint Server 2007 aggregates search results across site collections based on a user’s permissions, regardless of the number of site collections or databases (depending on search scopes).

     

    Finalmente, sobre sites: (Que es un Site o sitio, desde el punto de vista de SharePoint, para que me sirve o cuando necesito uno?)

    Sites

    A site is one or more related Web pages that are hosted inside a site collection.

    Capacity

    The guideline for acceptable performance is to implement fewer than 250,000 sites per site collection. You can create a very large total number of Web sites by nesting the subsites. For example, 100 sites, each with 1000 subsites, is 100,000 Web sites. The maximum recommended number of sites and subsites is 125 sites with 2,000 subsites each, for a total of 250,000 sites.

    Sharing and isolation

    Sites include built-in navigation from one subsite to another within a site collection. There is no built-in navigation from one site collection to another.

    As with site collections, separate sites are vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks from other sites within the domain.

    Configurable elements

    From within each site, you can add user or group accounts to the Owners group for that site.

     

     

    Ahora, dentro de los sitios almacenamos información y/o documentos. (finalmente, como manejamos y utilizamos la información que almacenamos o subimos a un sitio de SharePoint –que finalmente se almacena en la base de datos previamente definida de SQL Server-).

    Identify primary objectives for sites

    SharePoint sites are flexible and can help you accomplish many different things. However, to have a useful and successful site or group of sites, you need to be able to focus the sites on some primary objectives. That is, you need to know what you are trying to accomplish with a site before you can design it. For example:

    • Do you want to communicate with others in your organization by posting bulletins or announcements and gathering feedback?

    • Do you want to foster team collaboration by giving team members a place to share ideas and work on projects together?

    SharePoint sites can assist with both of these objectives. If you have multiple objectives, you might best be served by creating multiple, possibly interrelated, sites. However, you can have multiple objectives for a single site. If you are limited to a single site, organize the site so that users looking for the communication point can find it right away, and users looking to share information and ideas or store documents know where to start.

    Review the following objectives. Consider which of these objectives most closely align with your needs for each site you are designing.

    Document storage

    Document storage and workflow are key functions of many sites, even sites that are primarily used for communication or collaboration. However, sometimes you might need a dedicated document storage site for your organization. Whether you require a special site for document storage depends on many factors, such as how many documents need to be stored, how many people are contributing documents, who needs to act on the documents, and so on. You will have time to explore how to structure document storage later in the planning process. For more information, see Plan document libraries (Windows SharePoint Services).

    Document storage sites or document storage sections of other sites often include the following features:

    • The ability to check documents in or out, track changes to documents, and keep multiple versions of documents.

    • The ability to route documents for approval or through specific processes before publishing them to a larger audience.

      NoteNote:

      Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 includes a workflow capability that you can use to create a custom workflow process to route documents for approval.

    • The ability to tag documents with metadata, so that documents can be more efficiently sorted and managed.
