Creating and sharing new sharepoint site to internet, limiting user access

Posted By: Posted Date: September 02, 2010 Points: 0 Category :SharePoint

I am a new hire into an existing business as I.T. I know the networking, I know the computers. The owner now wants me to learn Sharepoint among some other things. They currently use WSS 3.0. I have been reading up on this for the last month. I think I am ready to extend the current site to make it an Internet site so the employees can login. Some other things we would like to do I have read up on and it looks like they can be done, things such as inventory tracking in collaboration with QuickBooks and creating a website / portal for clients to have a unique login on and can see the status of their jobs in custom SharePoint lists. As far as I can tell the clients need an AD account. However, apart from that I am not sure what to do. A little background. The company has multiple clients, and we ship things out daily to those clients. We use Sharepoint to track the status of the jobs as they progress through the stages ultimately going to delivery. There is one common page that lists all the jobs by all clients that is updated constantly. We would like to allow multiple (different) clients/logins and have a page customized for each client. For example, you are a client and go to www.companyname.com/sharepointsite.html. From there you would get to a portal page with a login. Once logged in you will be presented with the Shar

Internet facing SharePoint site - user shouldn't have to log in to change the langague

Hello, I am using SharePoint 2010 for Internet sites. Anonymous access has been enabled. Language packs have been installed so that users can switch to different languages as required. However, the only way for a different language to be selected other than the default is for the user to log into the site and then the option would be displayed.....This is an internet facing site with anonymous access therefore users shouldn't have to log in to change the language. Can someone guide/advise on switching the lanuguage of the site without loggin in. Thanks, Shelley

User cannot access Sharepoint site

I have a Windows Server 2008 64bit domain running Sharepoint 2010 and one user, and only one user, cannot access the default website. I've added them to the users for the site and even given her full permissions. She still cannot access it. It comes up with Error: Access Denied. You are currently logged in as and it gives the user name and an option to log in as a different user.David Kellett

Access Denied while user logs out sharepoint 2010 FBA site

Hi,

I've sharepoint 2010 site configured as forms based authentication having my custom membership provider.

On this site, i've a simple webparts that basically contains a asp.net login status control to allow users to login/logout. it works fine .. when user is not logged in it shows Login link that redirects users to the login page and when user is logged in, it shows Logout link.

but when i click logout link, user is not logged out completely. I get this error - Access denied and when i go back to the page (by clicking on the link provided on error page or just refresh the page) - the user is still logged in on the site !!

Here's the code snippet of my webpart:

This exact same functionality is working fine MOSS but it doesn't seem to work here !!

protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
LoginStatus loginStatus = new LoginStatus();
loginStatus.LoginText = "Log in";
loginStatus.LogoutText = "Log out";
loginStatus.LogoutAction = LogoutAction.RedirectToLoginPage;

this.Controls.Add(login

cannot access sharepoint site through Internet Explorer 8 on a machine running Win XP Service Pack 3

The Sharepoint portal can be accessed fine through Firefox. Opera allows me to access it, but I cannot sign out, check out a shared document or do anything which opens a small window on clicking an option.

I can stay with Firefox, but when I try to edit a shared Word document in Word I get the message "Edit document requires a Windows Sharepoint Services compatible application and Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater" We need to edit a shared document/calendar which is uploaded. All I know is we are using Sharepoint 2007 and the version of our site is 12.0.0.6421. Does that mean we have Windows Sharepoint Services SP2 on our Sharepoint server?

When I try Internet Explorer, I cannot log on at all. I get a window which asks for my credentials which I enter, it fails to authenticate me, then shows me the You are not authorized to view this page message. I tried with different computers, but cannot get in using Internet explorer.

What could be the issue?

Our Sharepoint admin does not have time to look into such matters so I am on my own.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Creating Sites/Lists/List Items under Current User Context in SharePoint By Using SPUserToken

Usually we do this by performing the action under RunWithElevatedPrivileges method and updating the listitem using SPListItem.SystemUpdate() method (see here). but this approach has its own flaws like (RunWithElevatedPrivileges will run under system account, we cannot use SystemUpdate for SPSite,SPWeb,SPList, since it runs under system we will "CreatedBy" by as SystemAccount).

Sharepoint site client access denied

I have an sharepoint application which was working fine.

I encountered a license expired message in sql server enterprise evaluation 2008 version after which i changed the date to 2 months earlier date, I have also changed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\100\ConfigurationState to 3 after which sql server started working but the issue is that the clients are unable to access the sharepoint site completely. On providing the url the web site requests for logon information and then access is denied. The same url with the same authentication credentials is accessible from the server and the entire application works fine from the server.

From the client the below error page appears.

You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

Please try the following:
