I am trying to search file system using Search.CollatorDSO:
Provider=Search.CollatorDSO;Extended Properties="Application=Windows"
On what Windows OS is this provider available by default? According to this question it is not installed on Web editions of Windows Server.
If it is not installed can it be installed manually?
After much digging, it appears the only way to get the ole db provider: Search.CollatorDSO is to enable the Search service in windows OS itself. Installing Search Server from the download does not install it. (Confusing!)
Note that Windows Search Service, what this thrad is about, is completely distinct from "Search Server."

I need to create a visual basic application connecting to AS/400.
I've read that odbc driver are needed but i don't know how to find/download/install them.
It is necessary to install iSeries access or is ok only download Fix Packs, register ibm odbc driver?
You need the install package for either IBM iAccess for Windows (iAW) or the newer IBM iAccess Client Solutions (ACS) with the Windows Application Package
You might be able to just install the Windows Application Package portition of ACS. But I've never tried it.
Installing IBM MobileFirst Studio 7.0 using MFPF_7.0_ELP_UPD_IBM_MF_STUDIO.zip but due to local LAN security we are not able to get dependency from eclipse market place which are required and downloaded directly from download.eclipse.org org. Where can we download necessary requirements and use this as local repository?
You can try this .zip file, but I'm pretty sure it is the same: http://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/products/en/MobileFirstPlatform/mobilefirst_studio_plugin_7.0.0.zip
When using the .zip file, you can also attempt the installation with the "Contact all update sites..." checkbox un-checked, before proceeding with the installation in Eclipse.
In general, the MFP Studio installation requires an outside Internet connection.
Find a location with a working connection, install. Make a copy of your Eclipse for future use.
Standard scenario for this setup is to have a central installation (with Internet connection). Then archive that specific installation, and then sneakernet it each of the disconnected workstations. You must do this for each type of workstation (Win/OSX/Linux) to be supported. No its not optimal, but does resolve the problem. Hope this helps.
You can check with your network administrator if they can allow your machine to access to the internet via a proxy server. If this is possible all you need is to configure the network connection in Eclipse to include your proxy server setting. You can see the detail here:

I am new to Hyper-V and Server Core but I am stumped as to how to install a guest OS from an ISO using only PowerShell.
I have downloaded the Hyper-V Server ISO and installed it on my server. It only installs Server Core and does not give me the option for a full GUI option. I configured its network settings, etc and all looks ok. So Server Core installed properly and Hyper-V feature is enabled. I can use PowerShell to create a VM with VHDX and link my Guest OS ISO to it. When I start the VM there is no console UI to install the OS.
How are you supposed to install a guest OS with no console interface to setup the OS?
Note, there is no option under this configuration to enable the OS GUI as some posts have suggested.
First, please don't confuse "Server Core" with "Hyper-V Server". "Server Core" is an installation mode of Windows. Among other things, it can be converted to GUI mode, which is why people keep telling you to just turn the GUI on. Hyper-V Server looks like Server Core but it is not Server Core.
For your actual problem, you're not going to find a simple out-of-the-box solution. You could work up a complete unattended installation process. You could set up a Windows Deployment Services server and have it install via PXE boot. I think some of the third-party Hyper-V management solutions allow you to connect to the console of a VM from within the local Hyper-V Server.
Hyper-V Server was designed with headless operation in mind. It was expected that you would use it to configure and perform maintenance on the management operating system and, if desired, the virtual machines as containers. The guest operating systems themselves were not really meant to be managed from within Hyper-V Server. What it's expected that you'll do is use a full GUI, whether another copy of Windows Server or a Windows desktop operating system running Remote Server Administration Tools to remotely connect to Hyper-V Server and manage its VMs.
As the title suggests, I'm trying to install Trac as a Windows Service on Windows Server 2008. I've looked into the instructions at Installing Trac as a Windows Service. Out of the different options given there, I would prefer an Option 1 like approach which uses some Windows utilities instead of installing additional software but the instructions seem a bit outdated for Windows Server 2008 as instsrv.exe and srvany.exe are not available for Server 2008. There is a suggestion to use winserv.exe but I can't find it anywhere and the suggested Google search does not provide any credible results.
Is there a way to use the sc Windows utility to install Trac as a service? Has anyone tried this?
Update: I tried using sc but that does not work. sc only interacts with programs developed as Windows Service Applications so they have hooks to interact with sc.
I could solve this problem using winserv.exe, that can be downloaded from this tutorial page: http://wiki.go-redrock.com/wiki/TechAsService
Once you get the binary file run:
"C:\path\to\winserv.exe" install tracd -displayname "tracd" -start auto "C:\path\to\python.exe" c:\path\to\python\scripts\tracd-script.py <your tracd parameters>
net start tracd
Hope you can solve your problem like I did!
If you just want to easily install Trac on a Windows server, I can recommend Bitnami Trac Stack to you. It comes as 2 services, one for Apache web server running Trac as python module and one for SVN.
Are you restricted to using tracd to host your Trac installation? If you use a real web server, this is typically a bit easier. Web servers like IIS and Apache typically install themselves as a service. If you set up something other than tracd to serve up your Trac site, it will most likely run as a service by default. In general, you'll have a better experience using a full-featured web server like Apache instead of the minimalistic tracd.
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.
