I have my company intranet portal in Moss 2007,i need to implement it into 2010,What are the possible way to do this.is that possible to restore the content data base in 2010 portal.
Yes you can do a Content Database restore to the 2010 Server. But keep in mind as Marek quoted success of your upgrade dependes on what are the changes & customization you have applied to the 2007 version of the site.
But to quote in simple steps.
Install SharePoint SP2 to your 2007 Environment.
Run Pre-upgrade checker & note all points on what is supported and what is not.
Import all your 2007 solutions to 2010 version and deploy to the new system.
Take a backup of 2007 DB, restore it to 2010 DB server.
Create a new 2010 Web Application.
Go to Content Database of 2010 WebApplication and remove the Content database.
Use STSADM command addcontentdb to attach you 2007 DB, which will automatically be upgraded. Check the log file, correct any errors, start again
Do these steps in your test environment & once you are happy move to production.
Note: You need a proper planning on upgrade, go through the belo article fully before you start the process.

We use SpreadsheetGear with c# scripts.
Currently it's installed on Windows 2008 R2. We need to move it to another server running Windows 2016. How do I go about the installation so that our scripts keep running without interruption.
Thank you.
You should not need to install SpreadsheetGear on a server. SpreadsheetGear is a component / library for .NET developers, so you would typically be adding a reference to one or more SpreadsheetGear assemblies in your own Visual Studio Projects, then build and deploy your own entire application to whatever location you need, such as a new server.
If you are using the SpreadsheetGear for .NET Framework product, it is distributed as installers from the SpreadsheetGear website (see the Licensed User Downloads page), but these installers are intended to be run on a developer's machine (it provides samples, documentation, integration with Visual Studio). You should not be installing these directly on a server.
If you are using the SpreadsheetGear for .NET Standard product, then this is distributed as the SpreadsheetGear package on NuGet, and you'd simply add a reference to it within whatever Visual Studio Projects require it.
i have a Mvc 4 project i would like to publish on a windows server 2012. On the windows server 2012 i have setup IIS 8 and Sql express. Do you know of a good guide to set this up? My issue is that i can't get the database working. I would like to make it so i can easily publish changes to the website. Any ideas how to do this?
is it possible to setup Visual studios on the server for the nuget package console?
the only way i have got this working was to copy the entire database to sql express but if i change anything i have to do it agian. Not a very stable solution.
Best regards John,
It's not exactly clear what the problem is, but I'll try to give a couple of pointers.
First, nuget shouldn't be involved in the deployment per se; it's involved when building the project, but once you get a deployment package it should contain everything the project needs - look at setting up the deployment using the visual studio built in tools, i.e. see this MSDN link.
The database is a separate side of this. You say you can't 'get it working' which I can't really help with since there's no details - you need to be familiar with connection strings and change your connection string during the deployment so your app can connect to the right database. The publishing wizard linked above can help with this as well, or you can use config transforms, or any number of other mechanisms.
Documentation here has details about what you can do on the database side. The publishing wizard (when using web deploy) can read the database schema and even make schema comparisons so you can deploy schema updates, but I've never actually used that solution - I usually need more control over what happens so I manage my schema upgrade and downgrade scripts myself.
Since there are many problems compounded in this question I suggest you ask a separate, more focused, question about each one.
I'm attempting to connect to TFS Preview from a C# application.
At the moment, I'm stuck trying to authenticate. I've added a reference to the TFS 2010 DLLs (I believe that these will enable me to connect, please correct me if I am wrong!) and my test case is as simple as. The URL I am trying to connect to is in the form https://MYSERVERNAME.tfspreview.com/DefaultCollection
var teamProjectCollection = TfsTeamProjectCollectionFactory.GetTeamProjectCollection(workPath, new UICredentialsProvider());
teamProjectCollection.EnsureAuthenticated();
This fails with the following exception.
Team Foundation services are not available from server https://MYSERVER.tfspreview.com/$/defaultcollection.
Technical information (for administrator):
TF400813: Resource not available for anonymous access. Client authentication required.
I had hoped that providing a UICredentialsProvider in the factory method creating the team project collection that it'd use this to provide authentication. The TFS Preview service uses Windows Live authentication, but I had hoped that this would be covered.
Pointers in the right direction greatly appreciated!
I have found that you cannot connect to TFSPreview using the TFS2010 DLL's, most likely because of the web credentials that need to be provided in order to access the site.
By adding a reference to the TFS2012 DLLs (which come with the Visual Studio 2012 RC at %PROGRAMFILESX86\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0) I was able to successfully connect.
Download and install the Object Model for Team Foundation Server 2010SP1 and then install the Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Forward Compatibility GDR. Though this installer may look to only apply to Visual Studio 2010, it will happily update your Object Model installation if it's installed stand-alone.
I have created a Visual web part for SP2010 site, What I need is to implement it into MOSS 2007 site.
Does MOSS2007 support visual web part,and how to do this?
I dont see VS 2010 Support Visual WebPart for 2007, but still you can develop a web part using 2010 (not using any of 2010 Feature) and after you completed the development you can package it manually to be deployed to 2007. Yeah its a extra step. Or you can see how smartpart works. Smartpart is nothing but similar concept in 2007 World.
We recently upgraded a major application to Visual Studio 2010.
Unfortunately, we are still using several database servers that are still running SQL Server 2000 (8.0.2055 to be precise).
According to this article (Link), "Since mainstream support for SQL Server 2000 ended on 04/08/2008, Visual Studio 2010 will only support debugging SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2008.
We have a lot of stored procedures that we keep in Source Control and execute them from within Visual Studio whenever we need to update them.
Is there any way around this restriction? 3rd-party tool, anything.
While researching this, I saw a few sites that indicate an ODBC connection could be used to get to the SQL2000 box. I was able to create a System DSN and then a Data Connection within VS2010, but am unable to connect to it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Chris
The only way I've found so far is to extract our data library out of the project and keep it in VS 2008 targeted at 3.5 while we're building it. Once it's complete and ready, we open up the primary project in VS 2010, check out the changed files and then use the file system to copy the changed files over.
We then keep the supplementary 3.5 project in source control parallel to the primary project.
They will still build and function in .Net 4.0, but we have found that the IDE will not accept any connections or commands to them.
