janne, thanks a lot, I was using a Virtual Machine to build the sharepoint solutions. Now I can work faster.

I will translate this to spanish and publish on my blog, (with the referer) if thats ok to you.

Thanks again.

Hi jkpelaez!

Of course you can translate this stuff to your native language. I would do it myself but unfortunately I don't speak spanish :-(

You can post comment and add link to your blog so that I could come and learn some spanish words :-)

Anyways... Happy hacking!

I have created this

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\12.0]

Where does the value

"Sharepoint"="Installed"

do I put as a default value?

Thanks

Yaz

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

jannemattila — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 14:24:08 GMT

Hi Yaz!

You have to create new key "SharePoint" with value "Installed" in it. Just leave the "(Default)" as it is.

Anyways... Happy hacking!

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

Yaz — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 15:47:29 GMT

Hello Again,

Do you mean a new string value equal to SharePoint and data = Installed

or do you mean a new key under 12.0 equal to SharePoint with name equal to Installed

Thanks

Yaz

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

jannemattila — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 20:53:49 GMT

Hi Yaz!

I mean that you need to create new string value.

Boy I'm bad at explaining stuff :-)

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

Yaz — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 00:16:01 GMT

That is what I did I managed to install windows sharepoint services.

When I open a team site defition project and look in the references, The microsoft.Sharepoint has an exclamation mark next to it. Which means it cannot find it.

A Stupid question do I need to install SharePoint Services, or is there something I need to install.

Thanks

Yaz

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

jannemattila — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 19:34:09 GMT

Hi Yaz!

Those files are part of SharePoint so that's the reason this stuff isn't supported :-) But you can use some parts without a problem.

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

RKH — Thu, 25 Oct 2007 21:00:30 GMT

Handy tip, thanks for passing it along.

Microsoft.SharePoint is found in the file microsoft.sharepoint.dll. You can get a copy of the dll from a SharePoint server. It usually lives somewhere in the vicinity of:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\...\ISAPI\

Put a copy of the dll somewhere on your development machine and set a reference to it.

I found this on MSDN

if your web parts are pure asp.net 2.0 web parts that don't use/reference sharepoint assemblies, you should be able to test them on your workstation. in different case, you must deploy them to server first.

I seem to have broken my ability to publish to SharePoint from InfoPath after installing Visual Studio Extensions for WSS v1.1. I had this same problem with v1.0 but was able to fix by simply uninstalling. This does not work with v1.1.

I am running this on Windows XP. The error that I get is "The following URL is not valid: ..." when trying to publish an InfoPath 2007 form to MOSS 2007 running InfoPath Forms Services. I'm not sure how these are connected.

I've tweaked my registry to allow installation on XP and to try cleaning the Server Cache at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Internet\Server Cache"

(http://serena-yeoh.blogspot.com/2006/08/infopathformurlnotvalid.html).

Any ideas on how to get InfoPath working again? I no longer need VSE on my local machine.

Thanks.

I am using Windows XP. I have copied Microsoft.Sharepoint.dll in my local PC from existing sharepoint server. Then, I have successfully installed the "Visual Studio 2005 Extensions for Windows SharePoint Services". Then, I have created new sharepoint "webpart" from my local visual studio 2005. Later, added that dll as a reference in my visual studio. There is no problem to build the solution. But i am not able to deploy the solution to the sharepoint server. I am getting error like, "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.". What should I do to deploy the solution to the sharepoint server?

The guide is for the VS extentions (2005 or 2008) - NOT for sharepoint services themselves...

and for some of the functions in the extentions - you'll need to grab the sharepoint.dll file mentioned above...

Steps to register "Sharepoint"="Installed":

1. Start > Run, then type "regedit".

2. Navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\].

3. If [Web Server Extensions\12.0] doesn't exist, right click on [Shared Tools] and select New > Key and type in "Web Server Extensions" without the quotes.

4. repeat step 3 for the "12.0" key.

5. Right click on [12.0], select New > String Value.

6. Type "Sharepoint" under "Name" column.

7. Double click on "Sharepoint" and type in "Installed" under "Value data" and click OK.

Good stuff. Thanks everyone! I have not yet tried to install WSS 3.0 onto my XP box (that's my project for this weekend) but for those getting the 2003 sp1 error, I know there are two different installers for WSS... one of which is the Regular WSS installer, the other has WSS with SP1. Maybe the latter will work for you? Worth a shot anyway... will report back when/if I can get the thing to run myself. ;) Best of luck!

re: How to install Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Tools to XP or Vista

Or do the following.

1. Open notepad.

2. Paste the following code.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Web Server Extensions\12.0]

"Sharepoint"="Installed"

3. save the file and name it like sample.reg make sure the extension .reg.

4. Go to the location where you save the file and double click it. This will add it to the registry.

Note: This excellent hack will NOT help you install or hack into SharePoint.exe (WSS 3.0). It WILL only help a developer install VSeWSSv11.exe (Visual Studio Extensions for SharePoint).

This way a developer doesn't need to install VS crap on the production server, and set up a test server like you are supposed to do. But it seems M$ wants you to buy Windows 2003 for development as well....

It looks like the call to GetAppPools is failing - obviously because IIS7 and/or w3wp are not on the machine...

Thoughts?

Deving on a non-server box is a huge plus, but some of the 1.3 features would be nice to have.
