Sharepoint 2007 Timer Job Development and Deployment Steps

Sharepoint Timer 2007

Sharepoint 2007 Timer Job

Create Timer job solution File.

1.Create C# project Library
2.Create Timer.CS, TimerInstaller.CS, Feature.xml, manifest.xml files
3.Copy existing code and past it in the proper files
4.Set strong name
5.Build DLL
6.Copy DLL id in the feature file
7.Build WSP and following deploying procedures.

Deployment Timer Jobs:

1. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\FEATURES 1.1 Create a folder " KarNet.TimerJob " 1.2 Copy the files "Feature.xml" & "Manifest.xml"
2. Run the install.bat file to deploy the Solution file. 2.2 before that edit the file to point to correct SharePoint site, by changing the "TargetUrl".
2.3 stsadm -o installfeature -name KarNet.TimerJob -force
3. Copy the KarNet.TimerJob.DLL to GAC.
4. Activate the Site Collection feature to enable the custom Timer
5. Restart the Timer Service in services.
6. Create a Folder in C:\ as "KarNetLog"
7. Share the folder and allow "everyone" full access.

Activate Feature manually

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web serverextensions\12\BIN>stsa dm -o deactivatefeature -name KarNet.TimerJob -url "http://KarNet-46b4a490b"
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web serverextensions\12\BIN>stsa dm -o uninstallfeature -name "KarNet.TimerJob"
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web serverextensions\12\BIN>stsa dm -o installfeature -name KarNet.TimerJob -force
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web serverextensions\12\BIN>stsa dm -o activatefeature -name "KarNet.TimerJob" -url "http://KarNet-46b4a490b

Error: InfoPath cannot load the view... unsupported HTML such as framesThe following HTML tag is not supported:'comment'

It may have a corrupted form.

Infopath forms (in 2007 anyway) are actually just Microsoft CAB files. Youcan rename a form from .xsn to .cab and then open it using any aplicationthat understands cab files.

There are a number of files in each CAB file, but the ones you areinterested in are probably the *.XSL (there is one for each InfoPath "View"plus some extras) and the manifest.xsf file which is like the "table ofcontents".WARNING!!! DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!! etc etcThis isn't for the faint-of-heart, but you did say you were desperate...
You may have to run through a combination of:

1. Renaming the .XSN to .CAB
2. Expanding the .CAB file
3. Hacking either the individual xsl views and/or the manifest.xsf to removethe offending view(s)
4. Repacking the CAB file
5. Renaming back to .XSN
6. Open in Infopath, hope error is gone

This has only happened to me once - I ended up having to delete theoffending view and recreate it. To find out which view was broken, I had todelete each view, reopen, repeat until I found out which of the views wasbroken. Worked for me (we had about 30 very complex views) and saved a wholelot of time.

Repacking the extracted files of infopath back to .xsn

Right-click on the manifest.xsf, select Design, save as xsn.

Populate Dynamic Dropdown values based on Radio button in the Infopath form 2007

The below Dataconnection name is TestConn.Create dataconnection in the Infopath form

the List GUIid is {46A48934-00D5-4914-8EF2-E012AD40343C}

http://star:111/sites/pf/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=Display&List={46A48934-00D5-4914-8EF2-E012AD40343C}&XMLDATA=TRUE&noredirect=true

set the dataconnection in the VSTA code

First write the code in the button changed event
--------------------------------------------------------
XPathNavigator root = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
// Get the value for the selected department string Filter = "HC";
// Clear the last selected value in the Months drop-down list box root.SelectSingleNode("//my:Months", NamespaceManager).SetValue("");
// Retrieve the data connection bound to the HC radio button FileQueryConnection con = (FileQueryConnection)DataConnections["TestConn"];
// Change the location of the data connection to point the XML file // returned by the owssvr.dll with a filter on department con.FileLocation = @"http://star:111/sites/pf/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll" + "?Cmd=Display&List={46A48934-00D5-4914-8EF2-E012AD40343C}" + "&XMLDATA=TRUE&FilterField1=FName&FilterValue1=" + Filter;
// Query the data connection to fill the Months drop-down list box with items con.Execute();

---------------------------------------------------
Second write the code in the button changed event
----------------------------------------------------
XPathNavigator root = MainDataSource.CreateNavigator();
// Get the value for the selected department string Filter = "NI";
// Clear the last selected value in the Months drop-down list box root.SelectSingleNode("//my:Months", NamespaceManager).SetValue("");
// Retrieve the data connection bound to the NI radio button FileQueryConnection con = (FileQueryConnection)DataConnections["TestConn"];
// Change the location of the data connection to point the XML file // returned by the owssvr.dll with a filter on department con.FileLocation = @"http://star:111/sites/pf/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll" + "?Cmd=Display&List={46A48934-00D5-4914-8EF2-E012AD40343C}" + "&XMLDATA=TRUE&FilterField1=FName&FilterValue1=" + Filter;
