R – sharepoint- creating a new web application

sharepointweb-applications

i have sharepoint (wss 3.0) installed. I would like to create a new web application but instead of using the default templates (team site, blank site, etc.) i would like to use a custom template. Basically, I want to copy a site that I have created (copy as site template) and use it in another web application.

How do i accomplish this?

Thank you

On the site you want to copy, go to 'Site Actions' and pick 'Site Settings'. From there, you can pick 'Save site as template' under the 'Look and Feel' section.

When you're creating a new site, there should be a new tab on the Templates box called 'Custom' - simply select your template, and away you go! Make sure that if you're deploying on another server, you'll have to install any custom web parts as well (BEFORE you create the site). The same applies for custom lists - templates can be saved from the List Settings page.

If you're going to be setting this site up in an entirely different Site Collection, you simply have to save the templates to your local system and upload them to the appropriate template galleries on the new Site Collection.

Upload a file to SharePoint through the built-in web services

Example of using the WSS "Copy" Web service to upload a document to a library...

public static void UploadFile2007(string destinationUrl, byte[] fileData)
{
    // List of desination Urls, Just one in this example.
    string[] destinationUrls = { Uri.EscapeUriString(destinationUrl) };

    // Empty Field Information. This can be populated but not for this example.
    SharePoint2007CopyService.FieldInformation information = new 
        SharePoint2007CopyService.FieldInformation();
    SharePoint2007CopyService.FieldInformation[] info = { information };

    // To receive the result Xml.
    SharePoint2007CopyService.CopyResult[] result;

    // Create the Copy web service instance configured from the web.config file.
    SharePoint2007CopyService.CopySoapClient
    CopyService2007 = new CopySoapClient("CopySoap");
    CopyService2007.ClientCredentials.Windows.ClientCredential = 
        CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
    CopyService2007.ClientCredentials.Windows.AllowedImpersonationLevel = 
        System.Security.Principal.TokenImpersonationLevel.Delegation;

    CopyService2007.CopyIntoItems(destinationUrl, destinationUrls, info, fileData, out result);

    if (result[0].ErrorCode != SharePoint2007CopyService.CopyErrorCode.Success)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

R – sharepoint fba

Regarding your first question, see this on Stack Overflow. Essentially, it's by design and Microsoft don't give you that functionality. You could try turning on Client Integration but I don't know if it will work. If you need an alternative, searching around I found UploadZen which seems to support multiple uploads with FBA.

Are you also using forms auth with SharePoint Designer? The bottom of this blog post from Mike Hatch has information that might help you.
