I have successfully installed SharePoint 2010 on my Windows 7 machine. My computer is a work machine and is on a domain. I'm trying to set up the computer to work completely standalone without having to connect to the domain. So far I haven't been able to get that working. I can connect to my work domain via VPN and everything works. But I want to be able to use SharePoint without being connected. I've read about a command called New-SPConfigurationDatabase that might be able to help but I can't figure out how to use it.

i am using vb.net 2013 and the application is ready for deployment but our adviser asked us if we can connect our application in multiple computers by just using one database(xampp). how do i make this possible?
1nd This question is a bit stupid once you did an application which is connected to a database just simply copy this app into any other pc and start it but make sure the XAMPP is running on only 1 pc.
(and be sure the server where the XAMPP is running the firewall is not blocking the database conneciton)
2nd
You can connect to a database from wherever you want if you wrote your app like that
Just another think please read how to ask question on StackOverFlow and make some research about this topic
I think I have very obscure problem. When I try to connect to MS OLAP server from Excel over https it throws me an error "Either a connection cannot be made to the , or Analysis Services is not running on the computer specified". Strange thing is that it doesn't work ONLY in Windows 7. If I use Windows 10, no matter if it's Excel 2013 or 2016 it works (so, msmdmpump.dll and settings are just fine).
Native connection to this server works as well as pure http. Drivers are registered and working just fine (tried with different combinations, with no luck).
Also, servers I was using for testing are in internal domain so trusted by default. I even tried to explicitely add certificate to Trusted Root but no luck.
Any advice, help?
Thanks in advance!

I have a Windows 2012 Server via VPS hosting.
I installed IIS and MySQL last week.
I have no way to remotely access the MySQL db, so thought I'd try to set things up so that I can access it remotely.
I have installed XAMPP this evening, and installed Apache and PHP onto the server.
My domain name. e.g. mysite.com is linked to the VPS hosting, so that I can go to e.g. localhost/index.html and also mysite.com/index.html and see the same page.
I had to configure apache so that I could connect to it at the same time as running IIS, so access it via localhost:8080/phpMyAdmin/index.php. When connected via remote desktop connection, I can also access that via mysite.com:8080/phpMyAdmin/index.php.
However, if I disconnect the remote desktop connection and try again to get to mysite.com:8080/phpMyAdmin/index.php I get a timeout error.
I seem to only be able to access that URL when on the actual server that the site runs from, even though I can use the full external URL.
I wondered if there any way around this?
I had a engineer design our .net application back in 2009, my guess is that it was coded using visual studio, and all I have is the installer application. We have been using it on our 1 or 2 local client machines very well for the past few years, but now I want to move this front end to the cloud. Instead of installing it as an application on our windows 7 machines.
It is a very simple application used in our small warehouse that keeps track of cargo/shipments etc. It uses Sql Server 2008 Express as a backend which is stored locally.
I know how to get the database in the cloud, their are many options for that, using Amazon or Azure, but how do i get the local client application to the cloud?
I dont have access to the visual studio code, i just have the runtime executable file..
I am sure there is no way to do this, and many of SO users will say i need to re-write the front end.
I have tried to contact the developer and they hav since closed down. Is their anyway i can run this in the cloud?
I welcome all options and solutions!
Thanks.
I believe you have two options for hosting this application:
If you are able to configure the database connection string, you could host the database in the cloud, and distribute the application to your end users. However, you've already stated that you know how to move the database, so I assume this isn't an option.
The only alternative is to run the entire application on a cloud server, and send the user interface to a client using terminal services. This makes it appear as if the application is running locally on the user's computer, while it is actually running on the server.
For an off-the-shelf solution to achieve this, you could consider using Microsoft's RemoteApp Azure service. I'm sure there are other similar offerings available.
I have done some research, based on the problem that my single server gives me when I try to open a document library in windows explorer from the ribbon menu item "Open in Windows Explorer".
The same problem occurs when I try to map sharepoint to a folder in windows explorer too.
The error is:
Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer
From the net, suggestions are:
(Since I'm trying this operation from server itself) enable Desktop Experience
Install the KB907306 update.
Enable IIS webDav service (Some say, it's just for additional functions from the MS Whitepaper)
(Edit) Started webClient service
I've already done them. Nothing changed. Proper machine restart and iis too have done.
Need some serious advice.
Thanks in advance.
Not sure if we are having exactly the same problem BUT I have had similar problem while accessing SP via Windows Explorer in Windows Server 2k8.
What I done to fix it is following:
Install new server feature called Desktop Experience (it comes with WebDAV redirector, which allows you to connect to WebDAV) - Note: Server will need to be restarted.
In Services start WebClient service (go to properties and make sure it starts automatically)
You will now be able to access your sharepoint via entering network path such as \sharepointhost\application\myawesomeapplication\ etc.
Hope that helps.
If you are trying to do this from the server, test it from a server which is not on the SharePoint farm (or better yet, a client machine). Ensure all of your testing is done from machines which are not on the farm.
Do NOT enable the IIS WebDAV service, as SharePoint provides its own WebDAV service and the IIS one overrides it in the pipeline. Enabling this service is a sure path to breaking WebDAV.
If you have SSL enabled, you may be in for a rough time getting it to work. Start by understanding how to use the 'net use' command, and the #SSL suffix.
make sure your webdav is installed as feature
make the following registry fix (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841215) :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
Add a new DWORD "BasicAuthLevel" and change this to "2"
Restart your machine (and make sure it is enabled in IIS)
Make sure that WebClient windows service is running in the server. This shall appear in client operating systems like Windows 7, windows 8 however, on the server operating systems like Windows Server 2008, it shall be installed by enabling the server feature "Desktop experience" using Server Manager
This issue nearly killed me. I found that I was using a 64 bit version of my browser and that is'nt supported. I changed over to the 32 bit and it works.
