Do I need a full crawl if I add a new web in a site collection?

Hi We have an intranet with about 100 site collections. How can I set up one of those to be in a separate content source that can be crawled more often? Do I need to make two content sources with one containing the other 99 site collections with the setting "Crawl only the SharePoint Site of each start address" and the other one containg my prioritized site collection with the same setting? I also would like to ask if the crawl rules have any effect on in which order the content is crawled. If I put a certain site to be included with order 1 will that site always be crawled first? //Niclas

We have SharePoint 2007 up and running for a few months.  We have 6 site collections.  Last weekend two of the site collections become read only.  Only two of us are Site Owner with Full Control.

althought, another person and myself are Primany/Seconday Site Collection Administrator.  I verify this by

Central Administration > Application Management > Site Collection Owners.

neither of us can access to the site collection from the web to add pages, to create lists, to add/remove users, or to set permission to the site colletions.

Any idea why, please let us know.  Greatly appreciated.

 

 

 

 

 

Usage analysis processing is enable for my farm in both Central Administration and in the SSP.

I've checked TImer Job Status and the three timer jobs responsible for doing the log analsis are all running.

I've also checked the log file locations and the log files are being generated.

Yet when I browse the "Site collection usage summary" report (SpUsageSite.aspx) I get the following:

No data is available for this report. Usage analysis might have been enabled only recently, or there might have been insufficient usage to result in any values for the report.

My farm is running 2007 Enterprise SP2 (12.0.0.6421).

Can someone confirm if this issue was fixed with one of the CU's that were issues post-SP2?

Hi all,

Does anyone know if the Site Collection Usage Report includes activity that occurs from Outlook? For example, if a user contributes to a discussion board without ever physically touching the site or if the user just reads list content from Outlook, is this included?

ANY help at all is greatly appreciated.

thanks!

In our SharePoint installation we have an SSP which indexes local office sharepoint server sites.  However there is a problem, although we can do portal searches which reveal search results it is not able to do local searches at the site collection level and as a result we are presented with the typical error below.

 

No results matching your search were found.

1. Check your spelling. Are the words in your query spelled correctly?
2. Try using synonyms. Maybe what you're looking for uses slightly different words.
3. Make your search more general. Try more general terms in place of specific ones.
4. Try your search in a different scope. Different scopes can have different results.

I am unsure as to why this strange event is occuring.  We do not have the WSS Search component running in the MOSS environment as the SSP service should be able to index and server search queries at the portal and local site collection level.

 

Any thoughts to this?

what is the solution of a site collection if its size grows beyond 100GB?  There is no way we can split it into two site collections and the content database will be large than 100GB even if it contains a signal site collection. Thanks in advance, Peter  

I am running into some weird behavior with how SharePoint is crawling site/list data.  Let's say our main intranet site is http://www.intranet.com: Most of our older sites are setup with URLs like http://www.intranet.com/sites/sitename .  Crawling is working fine on these sites and I can execute a search and find all of the results I would expect.  At some point recently (before I joined this firm), they made a decision that all new sites would have the URL http://www.intranet.com/SiteDirectory/sitename .  Any sites which fall into this bucket are not being crawled, it would seem. If I check Central Adman>Shared Services>Search Administration, I can see that the first content source being crawled is http://www.intranet.com so I would imagine this crawl should pick up anything under /SiteDirectory/ but it is not.  I also checked the Crawl Settings on this page and it is set to "Crawl everything under the hostname for each start address".  Lastly, I see that there were only 21 errors in the last full crawl but none of these errors apply to a /SiteDirectory/ site. In short, what could be causing the crawl to apparently skip all of the sites within /SiteDirectory/ and how can this best be fixed?

I created a theme with custom css for sharepoint 2010 Is it possible for me to use my custom CSS and have it be a selectable theme from each site without me having to modify the master pages of each site that wants to use the theme?

I usually spend my time in the forums answering questions.  But this time I need the help. I’ve got a client who somehow has succeeded in locking EVERYONE out of one of their Site Collections.  Users can authenticate to the site, but get an accessdenied page when you try to access anything in the site collection, including pages served from the _Layouts virtual directory.  The AccessDenied page shows that they are authenticated, but not authorized.  This is true for Site Collection admins and user’s who have been given Grant Full Control via a Web Application Permission Policy.  Central Admin and one other site collection are behaving normally.  I've already checked for database permissions - the service account can access the database fine. I've also checked for a locked database or overextended quota.  It's not that either. The accessdenied page url references the users list in the root of the site collection as the offending list denying access.   Does anyone have any ideas?Paul Stork SharePoint Server MVP

After database attach upgrade site and mysite from sharepoint 2007 to 2010 , I have full crawl and get "The crawler could not communicate with the server. Check that the server is available and that the firewall access is configured correctly. If the repository was temporarily unavailable, an incremental crawl will fix this error. ( Error from SharePoint site: HttpStatusCode ServiceUnavailable The request failed with HTTP status 503: Service Unavailable. )" for mysite and get "Access is denied. Verify that either the Default Content Access Account has access to this repository, or add a crawl rule to crawl this repository. If the repository being crawled is a SharePoint repository, verify that the account you are using has "Full Read" permissions on the SharePoint Web Application being crawled." for sharepoint site. The content access account for search is "db_owner" of both of site and mysite. How do I solved this problem ?

Howdy. We've got SP2010 up and running just fine but now we'd like for each site collection to have its own FQDN URL that's publicly accessible. We've already bought a wildcard cert and have it answering on port 443. Example: https://intranet.example.com -> https://sp2010.example.com/sites/intranet https://projects.example.com -> https://sp2010.example.com/sites/projects https://my.example.com -> https://sp2010.example.com/my Again, each URL on the right already works but we'd like the FQDN on the left to map to the URL on the right. I searched this forum for "multiple site collections",  "multiple FQDNs" and a couple others but got nothing :( Thanks, -Jeff

Using Powershell, I am trying to deploy the our custom solution to SP 2010.  The script is doing the following: Deleting the web application using Remove-SPWebApplication Creating a new web application using New-SPWebApplication Adding and deploying a series of WSP files (one of which has the site definition file in it) using Add-SPSolution and Install-SPSolution Create a root site collection based on the site definition file provided in the WSPs using New-SPSite I get the error "WARNING: Template is not found and is not applied." When I run Get-SPWebTemplate, my site definition does not show up. I saw this: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sharepoint2010general/thread/5ea46e07-a4b0-4bab-b698-9b6eeb695607 but I want a solution that does not involve me reloading a DLL, as, I feel there is something else I am forgetting. I have also tried: IISReset Resetting the timer service Cleaning the Cache (as described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939308) Nothing seems to work.  Does anyone have any ideas?

hi all, When I was creating a site collection in a new created web application, after clicking 'OK', it skipped to a page with error information which is: Error The URL 'Reporting Templates/audit.xlsx' is invalid.  It may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file or folder that is not in the current Web.   Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation. Correlation ID: 55bd00e8-3ecd-41bc-b534-e59fbebfc2b7 Date and Time: 8/31/2010 3:20:38 PM I never met this before, what's wrong with my farm?

Hello all, In sharepoint 2010, the breadcrumb shown in the title area starts from the site you are currently into. Suppose my root web is Home and I have a subsite called Child1 and under this subsite I have another subsite called GrandChild1 My requirement : when I am at Home site .. currently the bread crumb shows Home .. as expected it shows Home when I am at Child1 site .. currently the bread crumb shows Child1 .. expecting it to be Home > Child1 when I am at Child1 site .. currently the bread crumb shows GrandChild1 .. expecting it to be Home > Child1 > GrandChild1   How can I achieve this ? Thanks mano   Mano Mangaldas | Blog : http://howtosharepoint.blogspot.com 

I have a site collection that I need to make larger than the default size of 1GB.  I need to up it to 8GB's.  Can anyone give me the STSADM command that will do that?

Site settings -> Site Collection Administration -> Site collection features VS Site Settings -> Site Actions -> Mange site features I would like to understand what is the difference between these consoles at the site collection level. I found this link to an explaination but it didn't make it clearer.  http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepoint2010setup/thread/97e184dc-6f78-4ee5-a95c-2cc564134798 Why when I deploy a custom feature with the target site, level does it go to to the Site collection features console and not the Manage site features console
