Get ID of WSP file without deploying

Hey guys!
hope you can help me in this case.
Well I'm developing a script for dynamic WSP deployment to SharePoint 2010 with PowerShell.
However, some vendors for SharePoint solutions have some differences in their solution names (e.g. used"_" instead of ".").
Now I want to get the WSP ID before starting the deployment to verify whether names have changed. Favored in PowerShell.
Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance four your help. Much appreciated

If you extract a WSP file (change the extension to .cab and extract) and open manifest.xml you can see the solution id
<Solution SolutionId="XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX" ......>
I don't think you can get SolutionId before installing the solution or without extracting the WSP file and read the manifest.

You can convert songs to Mono. First, go to iTunes > Preferences > General > Import Settings. Under the encoder menu is another drop-down menu for Settings. Choose "Custom" and you'll be able to select a choice for Mono. Once that is set, use the iTunes > Advanced menu to create a mono version. The original stereo version will remain in your library unless you choose to delete it.

Where to get Reader 9 MSI-file for deployment?

Hu all,
where can I get the fitting MSI file for deploying Reader 9?
There's only the EXE file from Adobe to get.
Please help.
Regards
Davorin

Well, Adobe support has answered that is an issue of free software and thus not supported.
Great!
But I think I found a solution by myself:
After installation there's a directory:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Setup Files
where a msi file is located.
I will try to copy the whole dir and test, if this is enough for deployment.

How to get self-contained .mov files without FCE opening up?

Hi all experts,
I have fully rendered my first file, which is a simple text animation.
I did Export > QuickTime Movie. I am sure I tick the MAKE MOVIE SELF CONTAINED box.
When I quit FCE, I went to search for that .mov file. When I click at the file, FCE project file open up as well !!
If I copy this file for my friends, when they click at it, will they be able to see it if they do not have FCE ?
Thanks

David Harbsmeier wrote:
Sometimes it helps to change the 'opens with' info. Right-click on the file and choose 'Get Info.' In the "Opens With" box, change from FCE to QuikcTime Player.

Thanks David.
I really didn't know that there is such a thing. But hey, thanks for teaching me !!
Problem Solved.
Thanks again

Getting error while deploying (.WSP) file

HI ,
I developed timer through VS 2010.When i try to
deploy that WSP file in production server through Stsadm/Powershell commands ,I am getting below
error.
The solution cannot be deployed. Directory "NewsofTheweekMemoTimerJob_Feature1"
associated with feature '675521dc-7b7c-4825-a49c-611d0dce007f' in the solution
is used by feature 'bdc09bc2-f629-41dc-8749-e9fe8f02c613' installed in the farm.
All features must have unique directories to avoid overwriting files.
I saw in Central administration,under system settings i did not find any solution.
Thanks in advance.
help me.
Thanks:

It seems that you already have installed a feature with the same name in the farm. Look in the 14-hive (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14) under TEMPLATE\FEATURES. There you have a folder with the mentioned name. As
long as this folder exists, you can't deploy a feature with the name of the folder.
A simple solution for your problem would be to give the feature another name. So you avoid the naming collision.

How to call a class file in a jsp without deploying anything in j2ee

Hi,
I am new in J2EE. I have some jsps, which I configured using web.properties(documentroot=c:/jsp/). I am able to get
those pages by the web browser. I have some import statements in some jsps, now I
am trying to access those page but it is failing, it says
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for
JSPD:\j2sdkee1.3\repository\pradip\web\_0002fLogin_0002ejspLogin_jsp_0.java:1:
Class com.gui.UPMGuiGlobalConstants not found in import.
import com.gui.UPMGuiGlobalConstants;
Actually I have not deployed any class file or jsps.. Now my question is can I access
these jsps without deploying anything, like can I put my .jar file in any j2ee
directory(like lib or anywhere else, I already tried after putting in /lib) and restart the
j2ee and use it. So how can I call a class file from a jsp without any kind of
deployment?
Please send me the reply as soon as possible.
Regds,
Pradip

After you put the jar containing the class to import into the WEB-INF/lib directory, you still need to include it in the jsp.
Putting the jar into the lib dir, will make it available to the vm, but as in any other java class, you still need to import it into the class, that the jsp will be compiled into.
And you do that by putting
<%@page import="com.gui.UPMGuiGlobalConstants" %>somewhere near the top of your jsp. (well you don't need to put it there, but it good style ;)
That should do it.

"Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it." occurs while deploying from Visual studio

HI,
I get this error "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. " when deploying my project from visual studio 2010 to
SharePoint 2010 site. I tried restarting IIS, but it didn't help. This application used to work fine until the server crashed during the deployment process. All the other applications on the same server works fine also. Any ideas how to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance,
AM

Hi
AM ,
Thank you for your posting!
According to your error message, it says your solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. Take a look at the file system. After you Right Click -> Deploy Solution on the VS Solution, there
should be a .wsp file at <Solution Directory>\bin\<debug|release>.
Also the error can be occurring when the developer try to deploy solutions over pre-existing solutions with material changed in the solution. Go to your Central Administration Site and then
Operations and then Solution Management. Make sure that there not already a solution with the same name deployed or installed there. If there is, remove it and try deploying again.
And you could look in logs and find if there is a below error in ULS log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS).
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Best Regards,

If not then please let me know the right forum .
My Requirement is like this :-
1. I need to create a Portal Application which calls an URL.
2. But before developing this, my Client gave me one 2 options :
a. He gave me a par file and asked me to make changes in it.
b. Create a new Portal Project which calls the URL ( Predefined ).
3. I wanted to check the 1rst option i.e " a ".
4. I tried to Import the .par file into NWDS like this :
* Windows --> Open Perspective --> Enterprise Portal .
* File --> Import --> Par FIle.
* I gave the name of the Project as PortalLogon.
5. I searched in the forum on this scenario and I found that the libraries for this project are not automatically imported.

B. How to test my PortalLogon Project without deploying ?
Is it possible to test this Project without deploying ?
If yes can anyone tell me hoe to do this ?
Regards,
Deepu.K

Hi Deepu,
Usually Server will be having all the jar files and If you want to deploy your par file using NWDS you need to give a path to your Jar file location.
So better download all the jar files from your server and keep it in your local desktop.
Create a new folder called "JarFiles" in your desktop and keep all of your jar files inside.
Download Jar finder from IBM Site ( search for "Resolving Java Classpath Issues" in SDN ,you will get a pdf and follow it.).Add it as a plugin to your NWDS path.
Restart NWDS.
Now you can resolve the jar file issues.there are many weblogs /articles/forum QAs regarding this.
If u need more clarification,please let me know.
Thank you.

Hi
Shubhangi ,
Which method you are using to deploy wsp ?
Try below 2 commands
Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath <SolutionPath>
This will add solution to farm
Install-SPSolution -Identity <SolutionName> -AllWebApplications -time <TimeToDeploy> -GACDeployment -CASPolicies
The above one will deploy it to the all web apps in farm
Let us know your results, thanks

How can we get the artset from a .ai file without opening it?

Hello All,
I have one .ai file, lets say sample.ai file. located in C drive. so the complete file path is "C:\Sample.ai".
and lets assume the sample.ai file has one traingle shape(3 path type arts) in it.
Now I want to get the 3 path arts (artset) from sample.ai file without opening it in AI.
The function protoype is like below
AIArtSet& artSet GetArtSetFromAFile( ai::FilePath& filePath );
Is there any API like above function in AI? or is it possible to get the art(s) from a file without opening it in AI?

Not to my knowlege. The API only operates on active documents as far as I know.

Getting Duplicate Object existing issue while deploying the BIAR file

Hi All,
We are trying to deploy BIAR File with XI R2 Command tool InstallEntSdkWrapper. But we are getting Duplicate Object exixting issue while deploying the BIAR file.
Error Message:
[report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.main] Connecting to CMS plmdevapp31:6400 as administrator
   [report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.CmsImportFile] Exception: An error occurred at the server :
   [report] Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder.
   [report]
   [report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.main] BIAR File could not be imported
If we are doing any promition with Import Wizard we have an option to "Overwrite object contents" option to overwite exixting objects. It will very helpful if any one suggest how we can achieve this through InstallEntSdkWrapper.
Unfortunately there is no documentation availabe on InstallEntSdkWrapper.
Cheers!

That's a limitation with the XI Release 2 InstallEntSdkWrapper.jar tool.

hi Deepu,
for simply displaying a URL, you can use the commonly available URL iView.
your folder->new->create iView->iView from template->URL iView and then enter your URL
for the other think.......
you can create an iView from PAR file.
your folder->new->create iView->Iview from PAR->then select your PAR and create an iView for that.
and the last one.......to see the effect without deploying it on the portal......refer the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/23/c0e240beb0702ae10000000a155106/content.htm
and the usual libraries to be associated are
htmlb.jar and
com.sap.portal.htmlbbridge.zip

How can i deploy sandboxed solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online using powershell script?

Is there any way to deploy the Sandbox solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online publishing site using powershell or CSOM or any other way?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to deploy sandboxed solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online.
"Add-SPSolution" command is not available in SharePoint Online management shell. So, we cannot use PowerShell to update and deploy a solution in SharePoint Online environment. Meanwhile, here is index of Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Online
cmdlets for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161364.aspx
You can CSOM to deploy solution using helper class from CodePlex. The activation code is as follows: SandboxSolutions.ActivateSolution(siteCollectionURl, cookies, "solution_name.wsp");
About the Client Side Object Model (CSOM), it is a development related issue, we have a specific support channel for the SharePoint developers, so I recommend you go to our MSDN forum for further assistance.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look at:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/156/t/197404.aspx
In addition, if you would like to upload and activate sandbox solution manually, you can refer to:
