creation mode that last time I installed it. They walked me through the
process on creating a new server farm without AD creation mode turned on,

Zolt,
try running the upgrade command from the command line before installing
the update, maybe SP2 didn't finish upgrading all the database schemas:
psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace v2v -force -wait
(version to version upgrade)
or
psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -wait
(build to build upgrade)

Phil,
For SharePoint 2007 you can use the OOB web content management features
to publish from dev to staging, and then from staging to prod.
We did a similar implementation a few months back, works fine.
For WSS you'll have to fall back to scripting or write your own tool to
export / import the solutions.

Picture Taken" column is not displayed in the NewForm.aspx page. Since the
default NewForm.aspx use a default DataFormWebPart control, I think is

Rick,
It's a rather annoying and known issue, following steps usually solve
the issue
1.Check if your ssp databases are still in sync first:
stsadm -o deleteolddatabases 2
Where "2" indicates the number of days you want to check.
2. If you get a result with mutiple sid's you need to get the db's back

Hi
An admin just tried to change a top link URL on our main WSS3.0 site to
point to a different sub site page, but edited the site url and not the
top link. Now the original site gives a 500 error. How can I edit the
site to have the correct URL again? It shows as a web site in "view all

Hi Vinicius,
No, I have not found a solution. I've ensured that these are in fact global
security groups and not distribution groups. The only other piece I have to

WSS3 Permissions: Deny create new rows but allow edit.

2009-11-13T09:57:01Z

Hi..
Is it possible in WSS3 to allow some users to modify a list but deny them
the privilege of creating new items?
I would like to do it with the default functionality, but is this is not
possible, I would't mind taking a development approach..
Thanks..
