Current known issues with MCMS 2002 SP2 (last updated: 31.08.2006)

After installing SQL Server 2005 (which also installed .NET Framework 2.0), I recieved the following error message when trying to login to Site Manager:

"The Microsoft Content Management Server proxy component is not correctly installed."

I found that this is because the J# redistributable package installed is v1.1 (for framework 1.1). I downloaded and installed the new J# redistributable package v2.0 from http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/updates/default.aspx and all is again well with Site Manager.

I cant say I am feeling particularly confident in MCMS SP2 as yet.

All the confidence in the world with your support Stefan. Just not the patch.

Hi Stefan,

concerning 'Clearing Hyperlinks does not work after installing SP2': it is not necessary to remove the whole text. You can simply put the cursor at the end of the hyperlinked text and then press 'backspace' once: the hyperlink is removed and the text remains!

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for your usefull info. I am experiencing the problem you highighted when trying to connect to a db using SQL Login instead of trusted authentication. I have tried many things without luck nor success. In fact I am glad to hear that it's a bug and that I am not going nuts :-)
Do have any idea when the hotfix should be released and where to get it as soon as it is available???
Thanks again and all the best!

Hi Gaetan,

the hotfix is currently in testing and should be released very soon.
There will not be a public download. You need to open a support case with Microsoft and request the hotfix.
I would suggest to open the support case now to ensure that you get the hotfix as soon as it is released.

Cheers,
Stefan

Clearing Hyperlinks does not work after installing SP2
Before installing SP2 it was possible to clear...

After installing SP2 creating new content throws a server error: "Field not found: Microsoft.ContentManagement.WebAuthor.TemplateGalleriesBrowse.ViewAsList".

It appears to be an issue only related to viewing template galleries. Editing existing content (which doesn't require viewing template galleries) is not affected.

I still see the following error even after installing J# redistributable 2.0.

The Microsoft Content Management Server proxy component is not correctly installed.

re: Current known issues with MCMS 2002 SP2 (last updated: 08.02.2006)

Stefan_Gossner — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 04:36:20 GMT

Hi Ian,

this will happen if the J# redistributable for the .net framework version used by SiteManager is not available or not correctly installed.
So this is not a MCMS problem but a problem with the J# runtime (parts of SiteManager are written in J#).

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Jason,

did you install my WebauthorExtension? Then you need to install the latest version of my extension. The old version will throw this error after installing SP2.

MJ — Mon, 08 May 2006 20:51:56 GMT

I am thinking about rolling back MCMS 2002 SP2.

After the upgrade, I was no longer able to do Export/Import programatically...

Here is the code I run to do the Export (something published by (Stefan_Gossner a while back):

Public Shared Sub Export()
Dim MSCMSRoot As String = AppSettings("MSCMSRoot")
Dim TimeIntervalInMin As String = AppSettings("TimeIntervalInMin")
Dim AdminPass As String = AppSettings("AdminPass")
Dim cmsDeployExport As SITEDEPLOYSERVERLib.CmsDeployExport
cmsDeployExport = New CmsDeployExportClass()
cmsDeployExport.AuthenticateAsUser(CMSUser, AdminPass)
'cmsDeployExport.AuthenticateAsCurrentUser()

Dim strPackageName As String = "C:\deploy.sdo"

If Not AppSettings("ExportFile") Is Nothing Then
If AppSettings("ExportFile") <> "" Then
strPackageName = AppSettings("ExportFile")
End If
End If

Dim cmsDeployExportOptions As SITEDEPLOYSERVERLib.CmsDeployExportOptions
cmsDeployExportOptions = cmsDeployExport.Options
cmsDeployExportOptions.IncludeCreatedBy = 1
cmsDeployExportOptions.IncludeRightsGroups = 1 'CMS_EXPORT_RIGHTS_GROUPS_NONE

Dim strReportUrl As String = cmsDeployExport.Export(strPackageName, TimeIntervalInMin, "") '14400 for 48 hours
System.Console.WriteLine(strReportUrl)
'Process.Start("iexplore.exe", MSCMSRoot + strReportUrl)
End Sub

This is what I get:

I am now working with Microsoft, but they do not have a solution for me as of yet… They had me change the SITEDEPLOYSERVERLib (Copy Local = True) to Microsoft.ContentManagement.Interop.NRSiteDeployServer (Copy Local = False) instead.

Does anyone have a step by step on how to do the SP2 uninstall?

Andy Allan — Mon, 19 Jun 2006 15:54:30 GMT

Hi Stephan,

I think you remember Justin Drerup? He has left us for other pastures...we do miss him.

Anyway we are having a problem after installing SP2 for MCMS.

We use panels on some of our forms. The path changes when we click on a next button to the
/Templates/path.aspx rather than the /Channels/Posting paths...as it should be.

E.g.
FirstPanel Second Panel Third Panel
/PostBrochure/BrochureRequest/ /PostBrochure/BrochureRequest/ /PostBrochure/BrochureRequest/

SP2
/PostBrochure/BrochureRequest/ /Templates/NGW/Forms/BrochureRequest.aspx?NRMODE= /Templates/NGW/Forms/BrochureRequest.aspx?NRMODE=

Do you have a fix for this one. Is there a hotfix out for this?

We are running .Net 1.1, on SQL 2000 servers using Visual Studio 2003. It is not viable for us to update to .Net 2.0 just yet.

I see SP2 spits out a new bunch of javascript...maybe there is a way of stopping this?

E.g.

......

I see maybe you have a fix but that is only for .Net 2.0 users.
ASP.NET 2.0 Cross-Postbacks using PostBackUrl do not work on a MCMS 2002 SP2 templates"?

Any comments/help appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy

After installing MCMS SP2, I get the following JavaScript error "null is null or not an object", when I open the Edit hyperlink Dialog. Also all of the fields in the dialog box are undefined. This is a Multiple Hyperlink Placeholder from which we got the code from Stefan's book. When you remove SP2 it works. Anyone else experience this? Any fixes or work arounds? Thanks

Miguel Hernández — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 13:50:28 GMT

Hi Stefan,

After migrating from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 a CMS2002 database (before, the CMS2002 SP2 has been installed), we have encountered the reported error "Field not found: Microsoft.ContentManagement.WebAuthor.TemplateGalleriesBrowse.ViewAsList" when we try to create a new page. On edition mode, this has no occurred.

We've revised the past threads and have read about the installation of a modified WebauthorExtension from your own and then, recompiling the solution and clear the ASP.NET temporary file folder.

The problem is: where do we find that extension?

Sorry for any inconvience.

Regards,

Miguel

Hi Miguel,

it is at the usual place at GotDotNet:

http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=DD7F32CC-7543-4026-B858-69CC4A25EF99

But usually the problem occur because of outdated content in the "temporary internet files" folder in your .NET framework installation directory. E.g. for .NET 1.1:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\Temporary ASP.NET Files

Please clear this folder and check if this solve the problem.

Cheers,

Stefan

mikehardeman — Mon, 26 Feb 2007 18:38:38 GMT

I'm not sure if anyone has had this problem.

Because the Database Configuration Application would not recognize SQL Server 2005 Express as a "post-SQL Server 2000" version, I installed SQL Server 2005, Developer edition on my machine. Before I did this, I removed SQL Server 2005 Express.

When I launch the DCA (the latest one), it still assumes that the old SQL Server 2005 Express server is the default one, and does not recognize the new SQL Server 2005 server. I've tried all combinations of SQL and Trusted Connection credentials, and it does not see the new database.

I even tried uninstalling and re-installing MCMS 2002 SP2 on the machine, thinking that it might be holding the old server name in a registry entry, but that produces the same results.

Any ideas how to fix this so that MCMS SP2 DCA can see the new database server?

Thanks,

MCMS Database (reference to previous post)

mikehardeman — Wed, 28 Feb 2007 19:41:10 GMT

FYI, I solved the problem described in the previous post. As another MCMS post, by another developer, had hinted to, the way to solve this problem is to uninstall both SP2 and SP1A. Only after you do this and reinstall both versions, should you again try to configure your database.

Again, this was an attempt to configure with a SQL Server 2005 Express database that failed, followed by installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. With the new database installed, the DCA would refuse to acknowledge the new database and kept trying to default to the SQL Express database, which had been de-installed.

Removing both CMS service packs and re-installing solved the issue. I was then able to see my new database in the DCA setup wizard.

Hi Stephan,

installing MSCMS 2002 SP1a, i receive this error message: "Need Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistributable Package 3.0 (required by Site Manager, Site Stager)".

I cant install SP2 without sp1a.

Visual J# .NET Redistributable Package 3.0 doesnt exists. In other forums, i've read to uninstall the 3.0 version.

So, i uninstalled it, rebooted, but nothing. Issue still exists.

Any idea?

Stefan_Gossner — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 14:44:36 GMT

Hi Francesco,

you have to uninstall .NET framework 3.0.

MCMS cannot be installed if .NET 3.0 is installed.

Cheers,

Stefan

re: Current known issues with MCMS 2002 SP2 (last updated: 31.08.2006)

francescobramato — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 19:11:10 GMT

First installation of .net 3.0 came from automatic updates, and uninstalling it installation procedure of sp1a was still finding the 3.0 installed.

So, i have reinstalled .net 3.0 from redistrutable package and uninstalled it. At that time, installation procedure of sp1a didnt find the presence of .net 3.0

The issue is on uninstallation of .NET 3.0 installed from automatic updates\windows update that doesnt uninstall it correctly (maybe some registry keys)

Frederic Ponchaut — Thu, 15 May 2008 18:40:46 GMT

I've got the same issue (framework 3.0).

Our dev laptop are currently installed with VS2008 SQL2005.

I can install MCMS (seems working but need more check), but i can't install sitemanager & site stager (require J# 3.5 - does not exist)

I can't remove VS2008 & .net3.5 (after the reboot, an corporate update software check that my computer is not uptodate and reinstall the framework)

We absolutly need to be able to setup MCMS on this machine (a migration to MOSS is planned but in a few month)

Is there a workaround to be able to setup the site manager (manual setup, registry change, ...)

please help us...

re: Current known issues with MCMS 2002 SP2 (last updated: 31.08.2006)

Stefan_Gossner — Thu, 15 May 2008 19:02:14 GMT

Hi Frederic,

no workaround. You have to uninstall all .NET framework versions higher than 2.0 to install MCMS.

Afterwards you can install .NET framework 3.5 again and create a config file for Site Manager to use .NET 2.0.

Cheers,

Stefan

Stefan,

I've had the same issue as francesco.

the framework 3.0 is not completly removed from my computer and MCMS setup request the J# 3.0.

So i've to reinstall the framework from the redistibuable package, uninstall again, install mcms and install .net 3.0 again.

what do I have to with the config file to ensure that SiteManager use the 2.0?

I have a Authoring Website and it works fine on my machine but when the

Authors are authoring the site the HTML Editor keeps on prompting them to

Install the Web Author tool for like 5-6 times and then It finally installs,

they have been doing the authoring earlier and ActiveX was installed on theri

machines so why it keeps on prompting to install, can any body suggest a

solution to this.

Hi Ankit,

that means that the version of the Active X control installed and the version expected in the javascript code sent from the server is different.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the reply, I checked and found that there is a difference in the Size of NRDHTML.cab development server and on the Production box and since the CMS Virtual Directory is being pointed to the Production Box IIS_CMS Directory in Program Files of Production Box, so do I need to check any JavaScript to make sure the Version of HTML Editor?

re: Current known issues with MCMS 2002 SP2 (last updated: 31.08.2006)

Stefan_Gossner — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 17:47:10 GMT

Hi Ankit,

on the page that prompts use View Source in IE and search for the object tag for the editor. It will contain a version number.

Compare this version with the nrdhtml.dll inside the NRDHTML.cab file.

These versions have to match.

Cheers,

Stefan
