CanÃÂ´t set up local system accounts as service accounts in sharepoint 2010

HI I made an inplace upgrade to sharepoint 2010. I want to setup performance point services. but it doesn´t allow me to set a local system account as the application pool account for performance point services application. It doesn´t allow me to register a new account it says The specified user account "domain\username" is a local account. Local accounts should only be used in stand alone mode. The application pool account for the site collection that I upgraded is a local system account so I don´t get it? I tried this http://sharepoint.microsoft.com/blogs/fromthefield/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=112 However the upgrade fails after this. Is there any way that I do the inplace upgrade and it would allow me to use local system accounts has service accounts? Without Active directory? Thanks

Action on server to cause launch of application on user's local machine.

Is there a way for an application on a server (Windows 2008) on the company intranet to cause an application to run on the user's local machine?

I need to communicate from the server to the local app, perhaps with named pipe (but I'm open to other methods). However, there is the possibility that the local app is not yet running, or went down, so I need to be able to cause it to launch, as well.

Thanks,

WCF Workflow Service Application - Required Extensions

Hello, I built a WCF Workflow Service App and I built a custom activity that requires an extension in the workflow. In a web app, I'm trying to create a service reference to the WCF workflow service but it says that an extension that is required has not been provided; so how do I consume a service with a required extension?

Lifetime of asmx web service/IIS application

Hi I have a web service (asmx). I want to add a functionality where in I have to do polling for data on a URL. I added a timer and in the timer elapsed event handler I am checking for the data. (Is it a good design? Is there something better than timer for this in ASP.NET?) But what I observed is that, after some time, if the web service is ideal (no request are sent to the service), the timer event doesn't fire. Is this something by design or I have some configuration issues here. Is it very standard that if web site is ideal then the objects in that site are destroyed? I have few static objects maintaining the state should I not keep them there? Is there any configuration that allowes the service to stay alive dispite of the request sent to it or not? When web site is ideal, its only the website which goes in ideal state or IIS goes in ideal state? I mean my timer stopped is it because nobody called by web service or its because nobody called the IIS on that machine (any other web service or web application deployed on IIS)?

User Profiles Service Application and Import of SharePoint 2007 SSP data

I have setup a test SharePoint 2010 Farm. I will be using this as a test upgrade of a current live SharePoint 2007 Farm. The database attach method will be used. I have replicated the web application and AAM settings of the SharePoint 2007 Farm to the SharePoint 2010 Farm and have made the 2010 Farm a DC in a new Forest. I don't want to join this to the current domain at the moment. It also has SQL server 2005 with SP3 and cumulative update 3 installed. I have just setup the User Profiles Serice Application and when I go to Manage it, I get this. Error An unexpected error has occurred. Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.

Cannot find Manage services under Service Application of Central admin

We have Intranet solution based on SharePoint 2010 small farm. Somehow we don't see Manage services on server under the Service Applications in the central admin. Portal seem to work otherwise fine. When we opened the page to browser http://servername:14082/_admin/Server.aspx we received error: Access denied. We have tried to login with Admin, SP_Farm and SP_Admin user, but access denied every time. I checked who have Full user rights in the Central admin. It is SP_Admin Admins of the Sitecollection is SP_admin and Administrator. Why this happens?Kenny_I
