View 2 Replieshow to implement API over the SharePoint(MOSS) framework.
What i want to do is create a client application to communicate with the SharePoint.
wanting to implement something like following.
Client send post request to API implemented on SharePoint, API receive a request and do the authentication and create a login cookie. Client keep communicating with API(with the login cookie), request necessary information and API returns it.
I could not find anyway to hook a program... Is there anyway to hook a program or implement own authentication mechanism before SharePoint's own authentication is called?

View 1 RepliesI want to create a very simple WebService, which will be deployed on SharePoint Farm 1 and will be accessed by SharePoint Farm 2. The WebService will be responsible for querying all the ContentTypes and returning the result to the Farm 2. I don't know the basics of creating the WebService in SharePoint.

I am trying to deploy the Bugtracker.NET tool [URL], which is a normal ASP.NET 2.0 application, into the default web site of an IIS which already has Sharepoint installed in it. The OS is Windows Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.5 and Sharepoint Services 3.0. The question is that when I execute the application, I get a NullReferenceException because HttpContext.Current.Session is null, and I think that this could be due to a problem with the configuration of the web site, as the application runs perfect in web sites with no Sharepoint installed.
I already know that Sharepoint customizes the web site with handles, modules and so on, that all applications in the web site inherit, modifying their behavior. I have already given to the ASP.NET application Full trust level, enabled Anonymous authentication and InProc session state, but I am still getting that HttpContext.Current.Session is null. Even changing the app pool from Wss3AppPool to DefaultAppPool does not succeed. Maybe someone could tell me which settings do I need to tweak in the web site in order to avoid this exception.
I have built a few custom applications that run on WSS 3 using the Visual Studio 2010 Web application template. When I compile the application, Visual Studio creates the assembly file in the bin directory which I copy over later to the production server (another machine) with WSS 3. The compiled application dll file is copied into the bin folder inside the virtual directory of WSS and runs fine in there
View 2 RepliesI am working on a Custom WebPart, for which I need an application page to render a PDF file.
I am currently using following link [URL]
It works fine in ASP.NET, but gives a blank page in SharePoint.
Here's the code:
(PDF file is in same directory)
Response.ClearContent();
Response.ClearHeaders();
//Set the appropriate ContentType.
Response.ContentType = "Application/pdf";
//Get the physical path to the file.
string FilePath = MapPath("Test.pdf");
//Write the file directly to the HTTP content output stream.
Response.WriteFile(FilePath);
Response.Flush();
Response.End();
I am new to sharepoint I am familiar with creating webparts and using them in sharepoint, but how to create an entire site as template and make it to use in another sites
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get up to speed with SharePoint, coming from ASP.NET Web Forms. We're looking to use SharePoint exclusively for several reasons; one of the main selling points is to consolidate our development efforts. So for example, today we have several one-off websites with anywhere from 1-5 pages (smallish) on several servers, IIS installs, etc. and seem to be a bit fragmented.
Let's say I have a requirement for a smallish site (1-5) pages. What is the SharePoint way to handle this situation? Do I create several Web Parts, then create the pages in SharePoint and plug them in or do I simply create an ASP.NET Web Forms application and provide a link within SharePoint to it?
Update.I'm going with neither. Based on feedback and additional research it seems that Application pages are what I'm looking for. Here's a good article:
http://grounding.co.za/blogs/brett/archive/2008/07/13/sharepoint-the-role-of-a-web-part-vs-using-application-pages.aspx
Suppose I created a custom web application that consists of: several assembly DLLs: web app, business logic, data services multiple aspx pages and ascx custom controls that use them custom configuration section custom HTTP module. More or less the usual stuff. I would like to deploy it to a particular sharepoint site under a certain subfolder. So if I access my sharepoint site via [URL] (because I'm not using sites/some_site) I'd like my application to be available under [URL]
I could manually add a virtual folder (not application because I would need to access some Sharepoint site's data) to my sharepoint site in IIS and manually edit site's web.config file to register my HTTP module and add my custom configuration section as well either putting my DLLs into GAC or put them in the _app_bin (so I don't have problems with CAS), but I don't think that's a good thing to do, because this web application may get deployed in an environment where this shouldn't/couldn't be possible. So I figured I could build a WSP using Visual Studio 2010 and deploy it that way. But I don't have enough experience doing that.
I created a new sharepoint 2010 project. Is there a way I could add all non-executable application files (aspx, ascx) at once? I've seen the advanced tab of the WSP package where I can add my DLLs either to bin folder or GAC. I don't know whether I would also have to add any safe control and register certain classes?So I suppose I need some pretty detailed and explanatory guidance here.
I have a default.aspx in a folder _layouts/sandbox on the sharepoint server.
It has the following code:
using System;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
[Code]....
So I've created an asp.net web application on the same server the sharepoint site is located on. If I create an Access view of a list on the sharepoint site, which will then create an Access Database, can I then use that Access database in an access data source in my web application?
If not, what's the best method of attack to access sharepoint list data from thisasp.net app?
How do I create a form for a public site that submits to a sharepoint list on a protected site? I am trying not to use InfoPath form.
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create ASP.NET buttons programmatically inside an update panel in my SharePoint instance, but because of the page life cycle, I can not attach server side events on buttons.
Here is the code;
TableCell tcellbutton = new TableCell();
b.Click += new EventHandler(b_Click);
b.CausesValidation = true;
tcellbutton.Controls.Add(b);
tr.Cells.Add(tcellbutton);
table.Rows.Add(tr);
panel1.Controls.Add(table);
void b_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string studentnumber = (sender as Button).ID.ToString().Substring(3, (sender as Button).ID.ToString().Length - 3);
TextBox t = panel1.FindControl("txt" + studentNumber) as TextBox;
}
I've built a new sharepoint site page using the example I found here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2010/06/28/creating-a-sharepoint-site-page-with-code-behind-using-visual-studio-2010.aspx.The purpose of the page is to add a new user to the aspnet membership database that serves as the authentication provider for my sharepoint site,which uses forms based authentication.I've slightly customized the asp createuser control.The sharepoint site is forms based but the top level site is accessible anonymously, and I've created a subsite for members (hence the user registration page). The site page is in the top level site so that people can register.If I'm already logged in and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership store, however if I access the page anonymously and fill out the form, the user is successfully added to the membership database, but I can no longer navigate the website,I keep getting http 500 page cannot be displayed errors until I clear the browser cache and cookies.
How to integrate an external web ASP.NET control into a SharePoint application's page?
View 2 RepliesI have an asp.net 2.0 web application that will run on the same web servers as SharePoint Server 2007. The application should run in its own App Pool (IIS 6.0). The Web Application needs to call the SharePoint Object model API.
Is there a resource that explains the required configuration / security settings and other considerations? It is possible that I need to make some settings in SharePoint Admin Console itself; aswell as config files. Script files might need to be located in a specific location in order to be accessible. Assemblies may need to be signed.
I can only get partial success running my Web application. But only if it is deployed to a Virtual Directory that resides under the SharePoint Website (in IIS & File system). Even with this setup, I JQuery / Javascript throw errors when accessed (object null); and also images not loading.
I have made some changes to the Web applicaton web.config file which have allowed me to run the application albeit the above mentioned issues with scripts and images (Virtual directory properties also set to allow scripts and executables to run). Ajax functionality appears to work OK.
I am wanting to display an excel 2010 document in an asp.net web application. This document uses the new slicer functionality which I want to be available to the user.I know that excel 2010 docs can be used within sharepoint by inserting a web part which uses exceservices.But can it be achieved without sharepoint? Or can it be achieved using the the excelservices API to get the document from shreapoint and then somehow get it to the browser in .net?

View 1 RepliesI currently have a client with a SharePoint site that wants to incorporate an (already written) ASP.NET application within a webpart in the SharePoint site. The ASP.net application currently uses an IIS impersonation account to connect to the SQL database.
Some added functionality the client is requesting would require me to grab the user's windows login identity to use the SharePoint UserProfileWebService to query the PropertyPages for that specific user. Because the (already written) ASP.NET application uses impersonation, when I grab the WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name, I get the impersonation account and not the actual user's account.
Is there a way to keep the current setup (impersonation account on IIS to connect to SQL) and still grab the logged in user's credentials? Or would a better way about this be to change IIS to consume the Windows Identity of the logged in user and encrypt the connection string in the web.config?
Being new to integrating sharepoint documents into web applications I am struggling with the following task, so anyI have a page in my web application that needs to display a document from sharepoint.I use the appropiate sharepoint web service to get a list of all the documents in the sharepoint list, I then pick out the one I would like to retrieve and get the path to the document so i would end up with something like:
Company%20Hire/Hire%20Site%20Price%20Lists/0.pdf
Within our network I can do following:
iframePdf.Attributes[
"src"] = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SharepointUrl"] + _filePath;
This would display the document in iframe... problem I have is coming from outside the network the sharepoint site can't be accessed (due to firewalls etc). We do have a vpn back to our network on the external server our web application sits on. If i was to use the document url in a browser on the server I am prompted for credentials and then get to view the document.Is there a way for the web application to use the vpn, use credentials i give (e.g through impersonation) to access the document and display it to exernal clients?
I have deployed a custom SharePoint Web service on Farm A. I am trying to access this Web service from a SharePoint timer job on Farm B. On Farm B, I am creating Class Library project, packaging it (wsp) and then deploying to GAC. The problem is I'm unable to access the Web Service using the following code. TodaysNewSVC is a service reference
TodaysNewSVC.GetTodaysnewsfromInsite objGetNews = new TodaysNewSVC.GetTodaysnewsfromInsite();
objGetNews.PreAuthenticate = true;
objGetNews.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
objGetNews.Url = "http://insite-dev.portal/_vti_bin/todaysnews.asmx";
DataTable dt2 = objGetNews.getNewsFromInsite(true, true);
//getNewsFromInsite is a WebMethod which returns the DataTable.
Note: Both farms use the same active directory authentication. I have also done the debugging for Timer Job and feature activation and they are working fine. The problem occurs during the call i.e. getNewsFromInsite
The asmx and wsdl files are accessible from Internet Explorer and also from Windows Console application. Here is the code which I use from console application:
GetTodaysnewsfromInsiteSoapClient objWSClient = new GetTodaysnewsfromInsiteSoapClient();
objWSClient.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;[code]...
