Update list definition schema.xml after deployment

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with updating the schema.xml file after deployment. I have a solution that I will outline in this post, but I feel like it is a delicately balanced hack instead of a real solution. Any Information
that you can provide is greatly appreciated!
To begin, I am trying to create a new taxonomy site column, use this new site column in place of an old one in an existing content type, and update the list definition (and all existing lists) to show the new site column instead of the old.
The content type was originally deployed via an elements.xml file. From what I understand, once deployed this file should never be modified. So, via code I define my new site column, add the site column to the content type, and delete the old
site column from the content type. I perform an update(true) on the content type so that the change is pushed to all list instances. At this point, I can go to any list and the new/edit form for each of those lists does not show the old site column
but does show the new. So far so good!
There are two problems at this point. If I try to create a new list from the definition, I get a list that contains the site column that I deleted AND the new site column. Also, the deleted site column name still appears in the default view.
I tried removing the old and adding my new site column to the schema.xml, but this breaks all existing lists that were made from this schema.xml (specifically, it is a taxonomy field and none of the taxonomy fields work after updating). I can create
a new list from the list definition that works fine, but I still need existing lists to work.
The solution that I ended up on was JUST removing the no-longer-necessary field from the schema.xml, and then adding my new field to the ViewFields list in the schema.xml. If I do this, everything is happy even though the only mention of the new field
in the schema.xml is in the ViewFields section.
So, with all of that said... does this make sense? Am I doing this the correct way, or does this just work for now... and it will blow up later?
Thanks in advance!

I am sorry if I have caused confusion. I am not doing what you think that I am doing :)
All of my issues that I reference above are encountered when I deploy via WSP/Powershell. I am not changing any files directly in SharePoint. When I mentioned changing the elements.xml and schema.xml files above, I am talking about in Visual
Studio prior to packaging everything in WSP and redeploying. I will re-word my previous post to better emphasize my questions:
Isn't changing the elements.xml via Visual Studio and deploying the same as changing it directly? I have tried numerous times to change a content type elements.xml
file in Visual Studio, Deactivate/Retract/Remove/Install/Deploy/Activate the new version via WSP,
and then perform a content type update(true) in the feature activated
to push the changes to all child content types... and it doesn't change the lists version of the content type. This is why I thought that guidance of "don't change the definition file" applied to elements.xml altogether after deploying.
Either way, my code approach for getting these fields updated is working, so I can probably just proceed with that approach.
This is where it gets very strange. I see everyone indicate that a schema.xmlchange does not affect existing lists that were made from a list definition
when updating the package in Visual Studio, Deactivating/Retracting/Removing/Installing/Deploying/Activating the new version via WSP. I am 100% seeing the opposite of this. When I update the schema.xml file
in Visual Studio and then deploy via WSP/Powershell, my views (in existing lists) change to match the new schema.xml as soon as I deploy the changes. I don't know if this is working differently in 2013 than it did before.
Hopefully this better indicates the situation. My apologies!
Thanks again!
Hi,
Do you have a solution for case 2)?
I just confirmed for case 2), you are right. This happened for both SP2010 and SP2013.
I've tried to add more column in the schema.xml, then re-deploy solution. After that, all existed lists are effected the new schema.xml. However, by the work as design of SharePoint OOTB, it could not be effected because after creating a list, all schema.xml
is copied to database and it will work on the separate space. It's so strange.
if you have a solution to fix or found out something else, please share it.
Thanks

How to add a calculated field in a list definition (schema.xml)?

Hello,
I'm currently trying to add a calculated field to a list definition (schema.xml).
I have put the following code at the end of the schema.xml for the list I want to create. But when I deploy and activate the feature for the list, it doesn't appear in the list field.
<Field ID="{EE20EC4B-4216-4259-A84F-C478CE42B70F}" Name="EC_EventsMgmt_CalculatedTime" StaticName="EC_EventsMgmt_CalculatedTime" Group="EC_EventsMgmt" Type="Calculated" DisplayName="Calculated Time" Required="TRUE" Hidden="FALSE" ReadOnly="FALSE" Format="DateTime"> <Formula>=DATE(2009,1,1)+TIME(EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleHour,EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleMinute,0)</Formula> <FieldRefs> <FieldRef Name="EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleHour"/> <FieldRef Name="EC_EventsMgmt_ScheduleMinute"/> </FieldRefs> </Field>
Could you please give me some help and explain me why it is not working?
Thanks a lot.

Hi there.
If I understand correctly, you create this list within the same feature?
If so, the list isn't available during the propagation, and therefore the calculated field can't be added.
If this is the case, then you could work around this by adding a feature activated event handler to your feature and add the calculated field programmatically in that event.
Hope this helps.

Magnus

Hallo Mr. Sabir,
sorry I was sick and I couldn't answer you before :-(.
I use SP 2013 (and not SP 2010, maybe I must Active a feature!) and in my Schema.xml I have exacly the Schema:
<Field Name="Person"
             ID="{f3c1416f-69dd-4172-b05f-5df45c86ee56}"

How to use Meta Data in List Definition

Hi there, In Custom List , I could create a Meta Data Column by UI, but don't know how to create a Meta Data column in my list definition by programming anyone has experiense? -Regards, Chi

Yeah, it's tricky creating a metadata column in CAML. You can do it, but it still requires a bit of code to wire up the column during feature activation.
Basically, you need to define your taxonomy field (and a hidden field for the label), include the taxonomy catchall fields (in your list definition), add an event handler to the list definition (that will update the taxonomy catch all fields when items are
added and updated), and then wire up your taxonomy field during feature activation (this is when you would check if the termset has been created, and assign the termset id to the field, etc).
Here's an example from a test project I created (with help from others). I've posted the whole project up to the TechNet Gallery, here:

Data type change made to schema.xml of comments list which is part of blog site template is not reflecting in the existing site but working fine when new site is created.

Hi,
I have created a blog site with the available site template few days back. Now we have the requirement of having the attachments in the body of the comments section.
So, I updated the schema.xml of the comments list available under ../templates/blog/lists/comments/schema.xml to have rich text for the Body field.
With this change, I created a new site and it was working fine. Change is reflected in the new blog site.
However, this particular change is not reflected in the existing blog site. Any changes made to the schema.xml is not effecting the old blog site.
Can anyone suggest what can be done for the change to be reflected in the old blog site?
Thanks in Advance,
Regards, Keerthi Suryadevara

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add attachments in the body of the comments section.
You can add the the Code inside the Default list pages. For more information, you can refer to:
Enable Attachment in SharePoint Blog post list and display the list Attachments
In addition, you can add an enhanced rich text field to the comment list and remove the body field. Then you can insert files into comments, too.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Collect data from User workflow error updating list item

Hi, can someone please help me with WSS 3 workflows?!
I'll keep it simple - I have a workflow step "Collect data from user" that will fail with Unknown Error when attempting to update list item (this is after the user has clicked Complete Task). The workflow does not continue past this step and I have
to terminate the workflow.
What is odd, is that if I do another Collect data from User in the same step but following the 1st collect, both will work!! How can this be?? This proves the 1st collect is OK so why won't it run without another Collect data after it?! Doesn't make sense to
me.
I was just trying the second Collect to troubleshoot the issue. I've tried other actions there but having another Collect does seem to be the action that kicks things into life. Is there a clue here?
Any clues would be much appreciated as I'm not able to turn much up when I Google.
Thanks

Well, surprise, surprise, this has come back (thought it might!). The trace logs show it's a task locked error but I can't see how. Can anyone please provide me with some clues??

List Schema.XML

Hey,
I have to write with a custom list definition. The list definition must also include a
content type.
But the problem is I cannot reference the content type by guid. The list definition must
run in different site collection and the content type was build manually. The only constant is the content type name.
How can I reference the content type by name in the list schema.xml?
Thanks for your help
Regards
Stefan

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to reference the content type in a custom list definition.
I have something to confirm. Did the content type is located at the different site collection from the list ?
If yes, you need to use content type hub to publish the content type to the other site collection firstly and then reference it in the schema.
If No, then in the list schema, if you need to reference the content type, you need to know the content type ID firstly, it is necessary in the schema.
You can use the PowerShell command to get the all content type details like the command below:
$site = Get-SPSite http://yoursiteurl
$web = $site.RootWeb
ForEach($ctype in $web.ContentTypes){write-host $ctype.Name": "$ctype.ID}

Java Update - After deployed install and settings

Hi there,
In our managed Windows 2000 environment with Windows XP Pro clienst (SP2) we use Active directory to deploy software packages.
We are currently trying to install J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5, which works perfectly. We have made a transform file for giving answers to the MSI file of the Runtime Environment.
In the tranform file we have specified as wel that "Java Update" will be disabled after installation. This works well, too. After deploying the package, however, we notice that when a user logs on onto the workstation, a message is diplayed on screen, asking the user whether or not he want to re-enable the Java Update mechanism.
Is there a way (e.g. by a registry key, or another MST adaptation) to prevent this message?
Another question: is it possible to set the "Temporary Files", "Jar compression" level and several security settings like "Warn if certificate authority can not be verified" via registry keys or within a transform file?
Any help would be kindly appreciated.
Regards,
Sander.

I don't know what happened, but AFAICT, you did the job wrongly. I suggest redoing it this way (TM help files) and not worrying about fixing the mucked up system:
+*To revert to a previous version of Mac OS X:*+
+1. Insert the Mac OS X installation disc in your computer’s optical drive (or an optical drive connected to your computer).+
+2. Double-click on Install Mac OS X+
+3. When the Language Chooser appears, select your language, and then click the Continue button (looks like an arrow).+
+4. Choose Utilities->Restore System From Backup.+
+5. In the Restore Your System dialog, click Continue.+
+6. Select your Time Machine backup disk.+
+7. Select the Time Machine backup you want to restore. To restore your computer to the state it was in before you erased it, choose the most recent backup.+
+8. Follow the onscreen instructions.+
Alternatively, if the SuperDuper! backup was a bootable one of your previous installation, restore it. That's better and faster than mucking with the TM restoration procedure above.

Interactive Gantt chart - how to receive updated XML after user changes

Hello,
I failed to receive changed XML after user updates.
I've constructed following example:
Created context attribute of type XSTRING, binded it to the "dataSource" property of the Gantt chart control.
I pass following XML to the control:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-5" ?>

</dates>
</node>
</graph>
</chart>
</Graph>
</SAPJNetData>
Then I run my example application, press standard "Save" button in Gantt chart control.
After that my XML in context changes, but it's incorrect. There is no <graph> tag at all - this tag should contain all significant parameters of the chart.
The resulting XML below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<SAPJNetData build="9295" date="04-Aug-2010 10:19:13" host="localhost" version="1.1247">
<Application type="GANTT" version="1.0"/>
<TypeRepository href="/SAP/BC/WebDynpro/SAP/ZT_INV_WDR_TEST_GANTT/gantPR02P00086_3_tr.xml" version="1.0"/>
<UserInterface href="/SAP/BC/WebDynpro/SAP/ZT_INV_WDR_TEST_GANTT/gantPR02P00086_3_ui.xml" version="1.0"/>
<GraphGantt version="1.1247"/>
</SAPJNetData>
All the chart in fact has completely disappeared. There is nothing left but file header.
The question: How to get XML with all user changes back from the Gantt chart control?

Long time, hah..
Anyways thanks to behave like a responsible person on SCN and taking care of your threads..

Software Updates - Compliance Report Discrepency - Updates Listed in Report that aren't part of the deployment

I will try to explain this as clearly as I can. I've been unsuccessful in trying to search for this exact problem. I've not yet called support on this as it's not critical.
I recently began to see a problem in that our compliance reports showed two servers as compliance status unknown for an extended period of time. I made sure they had the most current version of
the WUA, I re-installed the SCCM agent, I manually applied patches using windows update directly on the machine. I've tried running the "RefreshSererComplinaceState" vbscript. However, the same issue persisted. I also noticed that
the number of servers listing as compliant and non-compliant remained relatively the same between deployments of
windows updates.
I began to research the compliance report "Compliance 1 - Overall Compliance". I began to see that there were updates listed in the report which do not correspond to updates which are
members of the deployment.
Example, The following patch "Update for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB2800095)" I currently don't have as a member of any of my deployment packages. It's not a member of any
of my update groups. Yet, it's consistently being reported in the list of updates in that update group. That's one of several like that. It's not something I've encountered before.
Is there a way to reset my updates list on the server side the next time I get ready to do updates?

Hi,
Here is a good blog discussed the issue:

In the meantime, please check UpdatesHandler.log on the client which status show unknown.
