Add reference to Microsoft.SharePoint.IdentityModel.dll

Had trouble finding the above assembly to add reference to it. It wasn’t there in the 14 hive. The location where we can find it is

C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.SharePoint.IdentityModel\

Hi Guys

I had the same problem. and i fixed it by going here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A49472F9-93E…

download the file that matches your OS. ie x32 or x64
If you try to run the file it will tell you the patch is already installed.
but run the file with “/extract” extrace the file to someware and run
“dw20w.msp”
Let it do its thing. It takes a while……Then presto. well as least for
me.

Let me know how you guys go with it.

Hope it helps!

Hi I got the error while trying to upgrade MOSS 2007 Content Database to SharePoint 2010.

http://blog.tallan.com/2011/03/29/upgrading-a-sharepoint-2007-content-database-to-sharepoint-2010/

The reason was the update requires that MOSS 2007 has the SP2 applied to it.

Check out this extremely helpful post

“The password supplied with the username .\Administrator was not correct. Verify that it was entered correctly and try again” Error while creating web application in SharePoint 2010

I got that error while creating a new web application in SharePoint 2010. Actually recently we had changed the password of the administrator account. However we had to follow this extra step to get the things working properly.

stsadm -o updatefarmcredentials -userlogin <domain\username> –password <newpassword>

Customizing NewForm.aspx and EditForm.aspx pages for Lists.

Recently, I was assigned a task to customize the NewForm.aspx and EditForm.aspx for a particular list. The list was part of a site definition generated using SharePoint Solution Generator.

The reason we wanted to customize the page was because we wanted one custom field to be added (drop down list) that would display all the content types in that site.

You can find the sample project and related files over here

Please rename the file from SharePointProject.doc to SharePointProject.zip after downloading it.

LookUp for Site Definition in SharePoint.

Suppose we have created a site definition for an existing Site having two lists and one of the lists uses a lookup column that points to the other list.

Now if we are creating site using that site definition we will find our lookup column missing in the list.

If we check the schema.xml for our list, we will find our lookup field to be commented.
