An unexpected error has occurred.

You have a file that has a long file name. When you try to upload this file to a picture library in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, you receive the following error message:

An unexpected error has occurred.

Cause:

This problem occurs because the file name exceeds the limit of 125 characters.

Resolution:

To work around this problem, reduce the file name to less than 125 characters, and then re-upload the file.

Please let me know in case of any queries/questions, Thank you.

This document was checked out to your local drafts folder, but the local copy could not be checked in to the site, close any application that is editing the document and try to check in again, or discard the checkout

Problem Description:

Unable to check in large excel file ( 80 mb ) in document library http://amol.sharepoint.com/sites/. The operation fails with the following error:

"This document was checked out to your local drafts folder, but the local copy could not be checked in to the site, close any application that is editing the document and try to check in again, or discard the checkout."

The same behavior is observed on other site collections as well.

Manage Access Requests in SharePoint 2010

Guys- we are already aware that manage access request means when a person gets access denied while accessing any SharePoint site then there is one link on the access denied page called as “request access” by which we can request the administrator to grant the access for the mentioned site.

Here is the screenshot that I am talking about:

This is pretty much similar in SharePoint 2007 also and same feature is continued in SharePoint 2010 also.

What we do in SharePoint 2007 for such issues? Where exactly we need to change request access ownership?

Here are the detailed steps:

·         Open the SharePoint site

·         Site actions

·         Site settings

·         Advanced permissions

·         Settings

·         Access requests

Note: same is applicable in SharePoint 2010 also but I am giving you the detail screenshot to avoid the confusion.

Please let me know in case of any queries/questions so that we can discuss and proceed further towards the resolution. Thank you

SharePoint 2010: 'Send-to' option to Record center from a source site collection does not work on a Claims-based web application

After setting up a Send-To connections (via central administration) to route records from a site collection to a record center on a web application that only supports claims based authentication, the send-to functionality does not work and fails with an 'access denied' error.

Possible Cause:

do not know the root cause at this time but i am suspecting that this is desired behavior and we can straight way say that-> 'Send-To' connections do not support Forms-based Claims Authentication.

Resolution:

There are two possible ways to resolve this issue:

1. Configure a zone that does not use Claims Authentication for the 'Send-To' destination Web Application. This zone needs Windows authentication enabled because service accounts, which are Windows accounts, perform the sending.

2. Use multi-mode authentication for the destination Web Application.

If you have any different views then please let me know so that we can share with SharePoint Communities and come to a final point. Thank you.

Cannot sign in because the server is temporarily unavailable. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator

You cannot sign in to Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 or Microsoft Lync 2010 in a dedicated Business Productivity Online Suite environment. Additionally, you receive the following error message:

Cannot sign in because the server is temporarily unavailable. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator.

There are multiple causes behind this issue, such as:

§  You are not entitled for Office Communicator Online or Lync Online.

§  You lack connectivity to the OCS or Lync service.

§  You are running a 64-bit Windows operating system.

Note: This cause only applies to Communicator 2007 R2.

I am sharing both the resolutions that I tried by considering multiple scenarios so suggest you to test the both solutions:

Resolution:

1.   Microsoft Managed Services Service Provisioning Provider (MMSSPP) provisions managed account objects for OCS according to your organization's specific logic. Some organizations use an OCS or Lync entitlement flag (such as  extensionattribute5 ) in their Active Directory to signal MMSSPP to provision that object for OCS or Lync. The value of the OCS or Lync entitlement flag is specific to each organization. Other organizations provision all users with a certain Primary SMTP domain.

2.   There is a known issue with Office Communicator 2007 and 64-bit operating systems that prevents Communicator from being able to successfully authenticate. To resolve this issue, update the user’s registry as follows:

§  Start Notepad. 

§  Copy the following text exactly as it is into the notepad file:

§  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]"LmCompatibilityLevel"=dword:00000002 

§  Save the notepad file as 64bitfix.reg . 

§  Shut down Office Communicator and verify communicator.exe process is not running from the Task Manager. 

§  Execute the file by double-clicking the 64bitfix.reg file. 

§  Restart the computer and then start Office Communicator again
