  • SharePoint without Email Question

    Hi,

     

    I would like to know if it is possible to configure an option in SharePoint 2010 to allow 2 users in separate security groups to send documents to each other without resorting to email.

     

    We are beginning a SharePoint 2010 deployment and we have decided we are not adding email to the system.  However we still require a managed way of transferring documents between individual users (not necessarily groups of users) whilst maintaining a security model with role based access.

     

    Ideally I would like a "Send-To" menu where you can select a user and then have the document appear somehow on their mysites page.  I am sure this is a viable solution, but I am windering if there is a more elegent solution.  We have also looked at setting up a document drop off doc library, where users can just dump documents and they expire via policy after a determined period.

     

    I will be honest, I have not researched this in any great depth, but as we have a lot of work to do in a little time, I thought I would try to gain a quick win on one problem early.

     

    thanks in advance

  • All updates perform full postback

    Hey man, you are a star.

    I poked aroung Google after your previous post and have got it all working now with help from the following page.

    http://asp.net/ajax/documentation/live/ConfiguringASPNETAJAX.aspx

    Basically re-iterating what you have posted above with some added goodies.

    I assumed (incorrectly) that when the site was created, you got all the web.config bits set up for you. In VS2005 when you created a special ASP.NET AJAX enabled site, your web.config was updated correctly, now in VS2008, you dont get the option to create an AJAX enabled site, so I guess you have to hack the web.config file yourself.

    All good learning stuff.

    Thanks again

    Thanks again.

    No I am not referencing any HTTP Handlers or Modules explicitly is the web.config. 

    I have noticed that is added an Assembly into the <Compilation> section in the web.config itself,

    file as shown below.

    <?xml version="1.0"?><configuration>

     

    <appSettings/>

    <connectionStrings/>

    <system.web>

    <!--

    Set compilation debug="true" to insert debugging

    symbols into the compiled page. Because this

    affects performance, set this value to true only

    during development.

    -->

    <compilation debug="false">

    <assemblies>

    <add assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/></assemblies>
    </
    compilation
    >

    <!--

    The <authentication> section enables configuration

    of the security authentication mode used by

    ASP.NET to identify an incoming user.

    -->

    <authentication mode="Windows"/>

    <!--

    The <customErrors> section enables configuration

    of what to do if/when an unhandled error occurs

    during the execution of a request. Specifically,

    it enables developers to configure html error pages

    to be displayed in place of a error stack trace.

    <error statusCode="404" redirect="FileNotFound.htm" />

    </customErrors>

    -->

    </system.web>

    </configuration>

    Hi guys,

    I just cannot get AJAX Update panel to perform as I expect.

    I am in VS2008, a new ASP.NET website,

    add a ScriptManager
    add an UpdatePanel
    Inside Update Panel, add a button

    In the buttons OnClick() event, add the following

    Button1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();

    Problem:

    Every time I press the button, I get a full postback!!!
    I have tried lots of examples from the web and get full postbacks on all of them.  I am using the built in webserver with VS2008

    Update:  Just noticed also, that for a micro second I get the "Done but with Errors on Page" flash in the status bar.  I can also run demo AJAX pages from websites without fault.

    Can anyone point me in a direction to investigate ?  Full code to webform below.

    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm3.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebApplication1.WebForm3" %>

    <%@ Register assembly="System.Web.Extensions, Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" namespace="System.Web.UI" tagprefix="asp" %>

  • Cheap ASP.NET Hosting

    I use these fellas ASPNIX

    http://aspnix.com/

    Good control Panel (Helm).  Cheap ($77 for 12 months).  ASP.NET 3.5, Silverlight, no Bandwidth throttling, SQL Server 2005 databases.

    They had a few reliability issues a few months ago and I am unsure if they have a very good reputiation generally.  But they have served my needs, are cheap and support is pretty good to.  You can also access SQL databases via SQL Manager (Dont know if you can do this on other hosting providers, I have heard some dont).

    The freebies are at Launch events, and maybe PDC... I'm not aware of any major freebies at TechEd


    Not always, 2 years ago (I think)  in Amsterdam, there was a voucher for VS2005 that all were given.  (I think that we also got Virtual Server aswell, but actual media, not just a voucher).

    But if you attended the Launch event, you got a better version of VS2005 (Professional), the voucher was for Personal.

    I concurr, I've been getting a bunch of spams from YAF's email address by some group involving NetDevilz.org (some script-kiddie website).

    It looks like they just found a vulnerabiltiy in YAF.com's installation (which might be on other people's too) and started hijacking sessions. So to be safe, don't login to YAF's website until Jaben gives it the all clear.


    Just went on there and everything seemed fine to me, although I didn't login, so that may be a factor


    It was fine for a while, its been done again though.  One comment in forum reckons that the main admin password may heve gone.

    You dont need to login, just visit the tope level of the forum and a redirect puts you to the NetDevilz.org site.
