After many months of development I am happy to announce that we have finally released Documentation Toolkit for SharePoint. Two years ago I realized I really do not want to document SharePoint farms I deploy for customers by taking screenshots or typing settings to a Word document. I wanted to have an application that would go inside the [...]

However when working with customers you will hear many different questions related to columns e.g.: “Can I edit managed metadata column in datasheet view?”. I made the following table for my own reference and I am sharing it with you. The table lists features and [...]

SharePoint Captcha (2)

Posted by: Toni Frankola In: SharePoint|SharePoint 2010

I wrote how to integrate BotDetect Captcha into Sharepoint 2010 article for Lanapsoft Inc. Compared with reCaptcha I used before with WordPress, BotDetect Captcha runs on your server, allows full control of appearance, doesn’t require human visitors to retype an additional word, and supports captcha code pronunciations in many languages.

SharePoint 2010 – Service Unavailable

Posted by: Toni Frankola In: SharePoint|SharePoint 2010

Problem Last week we installed a brand new SharePoint 2010 farm for a client. After initial configuration, SharePoint was working perfectly (We used these PowerShell scripts to automate most of the installation and initial configuration). However, on the next day, Central Admin greeted us with the following error: Service Unavailable – HTTP Error 503 I checked Windows [...]

Here are my sessions: DEV303 5 ways to build [...]

While configuring SharePoint 2010 for a client we encountered the following error in the search crawl logs: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. (Exception from HRESULT: 0×80070422) Had no idea how to fix it because all the SharePoint services were up [...]

Configuring PDF related stuff for SharePoint 2010 (and 2007) is very simple, yet annoying and often forgotten SharePoint configuration step. There are nice articles (link, link) to help you configure it but when you do it manually chances are you will misconfigure something. I wrote a simple PowerShell script to automate this, and it will do everything for you [...]
