Sharepoint 2010 Content Deployemnt Job issue with duplicate fields in User information List

Hi friends,
I am facing below issue with the content deployment job.
It was working earlier. But now since from couple of days all the content deployment jobs in production environment are failing with below error.
Field name already exists. The name used for this field is already used by another field in the list. Select another name and try again.
ObjectName="User Information List".
When I check the fields in User information list in targeted site, I found couple of columns are dupicate like "ask me about",first name","Last name" etc.
Do i Need to drop target site collection or recreate with fresh content deployment job.
Please suggest.
Please help .
Regards
Subrat

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got duplicate field error.
Based on the error message, you can try to use the following code sample to remove duplicate records, and check whether it works:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgeneralprevious/thread/41ee04bd-91fb-4bf9-932a-bac42c56c357
Here is a similar issue, you can also use the ‘RemoveDuplicateColumn64’ provided:
http://sharepointsurfer.wordpress.com/2012/04/27/how-to-fix-publishing-site-content-deployment-error-duplicate-first-name-column/
What’s more, as you had said, you can recreate a site with a fresh deployment job.
Thanks & Regards,

SharePoint 2010 content database size issues alldocs streams

HI All,
We are planning to do migration from sharepoint 2010 to sharepoint 2013. our database team identified that "all docs streams" and "audit log table" using almost 300 gig
we dropped "audit log" table today almost 100 gig
but still "all doc streams" table size is almost 147 gig
how to handle this situation before migration?
do I need to migrate as it is or do I need to work on "all doc streams" table
hot to handle database size
which way you recommend ? what are the best practices
please see database table size
can any one please send me step by step implementation?
Thanks,

First off, touching SharePoint database tables is completely unsupported.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841057
You shouldn't be making changes within the database at all and you're putting yourself out of support by doing so.
AllDocStreams is your data. You need to have users clean up data, or move Site Collections to new Content Databases if you feel you need to reduce the size of the table itself.

SharePoint 2010 Content database growing too fast

Hi,
I have a SharePoint 2010 Content database wss_content_DB which is 197 GB BUT when I calculate my site collection I can see they have used only about 70 GB. I know there is Auditdata table which is about 27 GB. Couple of days ago my content DB was about 105
GB and it Audit data log was set to unlimited once I noticed that I set to 90 days since then it jumped to 197 GB.
I have no idea what is going on.
Now I need to know
- why it is showing 197 GB in SQL server
- How can I trim audit log
- Why suddenly it's increased to 197 GB from 105 GB
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Abdul

There is a way to deal with this table. There is an stsadm command (stsadm -o trimauditlog) as part of the infastructure update that will allow you to manage this data.
#Powershell Script to trim old AuditData table records.
$currentDate = Get-Date
#Number of days we want to keep data in the table
$NumberOfDays = -90
$DateToDelete = $currentDate.AddDays($NumberOfDays)
$DateString = ‘{0:yyyyMMdd}’ -f $DateToDelete
$STSADMCMD = “stsadm -o trimauditlog -date $DateString -databasename WSS_ContentDB”
invoke-expression “$STSADMCMD”
WHY IT SUDDENLY INCREASED:
Do this query on your SQL Instance: DBCC SQLPERF(logspace)
This will show you how the size of LOGfiles (LDF) and how much is unused, if you have alot of unused space it indicates you dont have a recent DB backup - normally backup would write log data to MDF file .
Normally you will not shrink DBs, only if you have deleted alot of data and you are not going to use space again so only do a shrink if you REALLY needs to.

Display Custom Fields in a SharePoint 2010 Content Query Web Part?

AKshay Nangare

Hi,
By default CQWP shows only one column. However, if you want to show more than one column, then CQWP needs to be customized. The property which you are looking for is CommonViewFields. It is used to specify the additional fields that you want to display in
the Web Part. See this for more information:

Sharepoint 2010: user information list Vs user profile

I wrote code for getting user details based on username. I am fetching data from user profile using user profile service. But recently I came to know about "user information list" which stores same data as that of user profile.
So, My question is which will be better choice : user profile service OR user information list to get user information ?

User Information list has limitation, firstly its hidden, it can be viewed only administrators.
Also you will face issue when you migrate your application to SharePoint 2013.
If you want quick way of know who has permissions you can use this list, but sometime you may end up with outdated user profile(properties) information.
Better try to use User profile service wherever possible.
there is another discussion on this topic here -

Add this to the end of your nav p CSS selector at Line 209 of your HTML file, after 'background-repeat...':
margin-bottom: -2px;
Your nav p will then look like this:
nav p {
          font-size: 90%;
          font-weight: bold;
          color: #FFC;

How can I allow the application to line through a field that has been locked after being digitally signed?
We have multiple sections on a form with some fields being proposed information and other in another section having the approved information. once the approved information is entered we line through the proposed field so the data entry clerk won't pick up the wrong information. However we are receiving an error when attempting to enter data in the field which we have this edit. Error property: line through cannot be set because doing so would violate the document permission setting. any idea how we can get around this issue?

You can control which fields are locked down after signing by setting up a collection. Then those that are not locked can be changed after signing. If this is not possible, then the line outs must occur prior to signing.

Access 2010, Sharepoint 2010 issue with adding field to access db table

I needed to add an additional field to one of my access tables contained in the sharepoint list.
My application is a front end Access DB (run locally), and the backend is the 'data' database contained in the sharepoint lists.
I added the field to the database (called BOM). When I open the access list (from sharepoint) , and also look at the database in access, the field is there and things are fine.
However, it does not show up in my linked front end. I deleted the linked sharepoint tables from my front end, and then re-imported. Now I see the BOM field I created, but it has replaced the 'ID' field, which was the primary key. I had
added the 'BOM' field as the last field in the table. Now it is the first field, having replaced the 'ID' field.
What's going on here?
Thanks in advance!

SharePoint 2007 Migration SharePoint 2010 Documents Broken Link Issue

Hello All,
I'm in the process of doing a SharePoint migration from 2K7 to 2010 (different platform). In SP 2K7 I have several thousands of documents. I have approx. 5K documents with anywhere from 1 to several links (http, https) that
will break after the migration. Are there any Best Practices to deal with this issue? Any information at all!!!
Thanks

Hi,
There are a lot of resources out there for migrating from MOSS 2007 to SharePoint server 2010. You need to have at least SP2 for MOSS 2007 installed on your WFE server. After that you can check the status of your farm running
stsadm -o preupgradecheck.
I have published a checklist for migration, check it out:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/checklist-for-migrating-from-sharepoint-2007-to-sharepoint-2010.aspx
This technet link provide you with a comprehensive guide:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc303420.aspx
The best approach is to set up a separate SharePoint 2010 farm and the perform a database attach migration. You simply take a backup of your content database and the restore it to your new SQL server, then attach it to a web application you have created.
See the checklist I have provided above.

SharePoint 2010 - Content Organizer Move and leave a link

Hi everyone,
We have activate Content Organizer on two Site collections, one name FromSC
(From Site Collection) and the other name ToSC (To Site Collection).
We have created a new "Send To Connections" with the Action "Move and leave a link"
The document is moved from the librairy in the site collection "FromSC" to the librairy in the site collection "ToSC" but we don't have any link in the librairy in the site collection "FromSC".
Anyone have the same problem?
Regards,
Social Technet Microsoft.

Hi,
Based on your description, I have done a test in my SharePoint 2010 and I re-appeared your issue.
I have followed the following article to create a new "Send To Connections" with the Action "Move and leave a link".
http://www.boostsolutions.com/blog/how-to-configure-send-to-connections-in-sharepoint-2010/
A link is created when I manually move the document to the Send To Connection.
But if I am using the rule "Content Organizer Rule" the link is not created.
Besides, I have created a new "Send To Connections" with the Action "copy" and I got the same results.
By testing, I came to the conclusion that it is by default that when we use the "Content Organizer Rule" and choose the target location with the screenshot, it just take the connection as a destination path rather than using its action.

Custom Property in Microsoft Word 2010 Document Template and Sharepoint 2010 Content Type not Syncing up

I wrote a macro in a Word 2010 template with a custom property called HeaderFooter (a Yes/No value). When the property is changed to No, the header and footer are hidden, otherwise, the header and footer are displayed.
I added the template to a SharePoint 2010 Document library, with a content type DocInformation and a column name HeaderFooterOffOn that I want to map to the custom property HeaderFooter in the Word Document.
The macro isn't working in SharePoint, though, because when the user clicks on the HeaderFooterOffOn in the DIP of the Word Document, the Word Custom Property (HeaderFooter) isn't changing with it.
How do I get these two synced up, so that when the SharePoint column is changed, the Word Document's custom property simultaneously updates with it?

Hi kevinkevinc,
There is no direct way to run macro in SharePoint
As a workaround, I suggest you use SharePoint Event Receiver to run some custom code when column changed.

Possible Issues with Duplicate Training Database?

Hello everyone!
First off, please forgive my ignorance! I've only been working with databases lightly over the last couple of years, and thus far only with MySQL and MS SQL.
Recently the company I work for purchased a new software package that required Oracle. We purchased a copy of Oracle 10.2 as part of the deal and the company that sold it to us, and set it up for us, has denied us dev access to the database, on our server, because it would expose their underlying data schema. I wasn't in change when the decision was made and we spent the money on a crippled copy of Oracle, but that's in the past.
Because we don't have dev access to Oracle we're unable to create a training database for this new software in house. We have to pay this company to create a test environment for us. I was told it would cost $500, until the tech said he was going to install Oracle on our training server.
At this point I stopped him and said at $500 they'll either be breaching their licensing agreement, or giving us a free copy! The other possibility is that they were going to install this and then just bill us for Oracle later on, despite quoting the job at $500.
The tech who was about to do the installation went to check with someone more senior and then returned to inform me that installing the second copy of Oracle would indeed require more licensing fees.
This verified what I already had told him, and I said we want a training database on our existing Oracle server, and then training copies of the new software can just point to that training database.
He now needs to take time with the more senior technicians while they're "analyzing the existing database server/environment". He was trying to talk me out of installing a training database on the existing server, and instead buying another copy of Oracle, which I believe to be a total cash grab. He had no solid reason why he couldn't do it, but refused to anyway and said he needs to talk to a more senior tech (the same one who said that yes, we'll need to purchase a second copy of Oracle rather than use a second database on the existing server).
So, these two databases, one live data and one a duplicate of that live data used in a training environment where changes won't be reported against, should be able to exist peacefully should they not? The same version of the same software accessing the same data from the same server, just a different database, shouldn't present any problems with my limited knowledge of Oracle! There will only ever be maybe 5 connections to the training environment at a time, and the server should be able to currently handle twice as many users connected as it's current maximum (edit: expected) load.
I know this wouldn't be a problem with MySQL, or MS SQL, and Oracle is a superior database package, so can anyone think of any legitimate reason that might back up the claim that having that duplicate database will be a problem?
Thanks in advance for any guidance here!

Thank you very much John!
We have a per user license and I don't expect our training needs to exceed even a half dozen people at a time to start (A small, significant, fraction of the initial user base). In the future we can easily recommission other resources, or purchase more. The whole project is in the earlier stages anyway, so the needs are smaller now (but the money we spend on licensing could be recurring).
I understand the requirements angle from a server perspective, but those points you brought up drill down into what I need to know a bit more.
I doubt rollback segments would be necessary, I was thinking more along the lines of scheduled replication/duplication of the production database on a weekly or monthly basis, just to keep the material at least somewhat up to date.
I also don't think temporary table space would put much load on storage either, at least in the long run.
RAM isn't much an issue with a 64 bit version running either, for our needs now at least.
My instinct, and what you mention about even potential impact of altering the existing database schema enforces this, is that it's basically safer to create a separate database, but less resource intensive to alter the schema of an existing Oracle database to suit training needs (in this situation, maybe, making some vague assumptions about software probably), if done correctly (although still carrying risks).
I do wish I had the time to read up on this more now, and I will as soon as I have the time.
I probably will download 10g express edition to familiarize myself a bit more now, as soon as I come up with an application for it, to at least try out whatever I read.
Thanks for the advice

Issue with Duplicate FUNCTION

Hi Guys:
I am experiencing some issue with DUPLIATE FUNCTION. What happen is that I have create some BUTTONS on the stage that was used througth out difference scence.....those buttons has same action that point page to particular scence. And this is when I found the DUPLICATE FUNCTION issue.
I found that I could get away by changing the name of the FUNCTION, but as I have quite a lots of those buttons so I really don't think this method is very pratical and organized. So does anyone have any better idea how this can be solved?
Many Thanks!

Thanks so much, this did solve the problem. Studpid me that were trying to add same FUNCTION on each Scene that has the same button. Initially I thought it's more complex in AS3, but seems AS3 is actually trying to make thing easier and more praticler.
Not really good at previously AS, but decided to spend some time on learning AS3.0 now. Hope I could help people like me on the forum with question about AS3.0 soon. Just like the favor you did for me.
Many Thanks!!
