Sharepoint 2010 Restore problem with SqlException The restart-checkpoint

22/03/2012 Leave a comment

Object <Content Database> failed in event OnRestore. For more information, see the spbackup.log or sprestore.log file located in the backup directory. SqlException: The restart-checkpoint file ‘Drive:\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup\xxxx.CKP’ could not be opened. Operating system error ‘3(The system cannot find the path specified.)’. Correct the problem, or reissue the command without RESTART. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

When SQL Server has been installing , it creates a default SQL Server Database backup folder like ‘Drive:\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Backup’

This error occurs that the BACKUP or RESTORE process needs to create a checkpoint file that will indicate at what point any failure occurs. This allows the WITH RESTART option to be used . The WITH RESTART option specifies that SQL Server should restart a restore operation that has been interrupted and continue restore operation where the interruption has occured . The information about how much data the BACKUP or RESTORE command had processed before the interruption occurred is stored in a checkpoint file in the BACKUP directory like ‘Drive:\<SQL INSTANCE>\MSSQL\Backup

The checkpoint file is a temporary file, deleted when the restore process is completed, and is normally placed in the default backup folder.

Some of the reasons the checkpoint file cannot be created :

– The “backup” directory does not exist under the directory where SQL Server is installed.
– The drive where the “backup” directory resides is full.
– The “backup” directory is not accessible to the SQL Server account.

For fixing the issue you may check fallowings.

– Verify that the BACKUP directory exists under the directory where SQL Server is installed. If it does not exist, create it.
– Verify that there is available space on the drive where the BACKUP directory resides.
– Verify that the SQL Server startup account has permission to read from and write to the BACKUP directory.

This error has a limited impact and does not prevent a restore operation from succeeding. This error message occurs when a restore is interrupted, and the checkpoint file that is used to restart a restore is not written, or the checkpoint file is not written correctly. If you receive this error, it means that, if for some reason the restore operation is interrupted in the middle of the process, you have to restart it from the beginning of the backup file rather than the checkpoint file.

Problem about Reporting Service (SSRS) for SharePoint 2010 Integration

13/03/2012 Leave a comment

Recently i faced fallowing error and decided that write about an article about SSRS with Sharepoint Integration because of MSDN articles is very detailed but sometimes the people can miss the basic points.Lets see what we faced:

The configuration parameter SharePointIntegrated is set to True but Share Point Object Model cannot be loaded.

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. File name: ‘Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c’ at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.Objects.RSSPImpSecurity.set_StaticCatchAccessDeniedException(Boolean value) at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.Server.SharePointServiceHelper..ctor() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.SharePoint.Server.SharePointServiceHelperFactory.get_ServiceHelper() WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF. To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1. Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging. To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog]. . (rsSharePointObjectModelNotInstalled) Get Online Help

The cause of the problem is the server which SSRS installed has not  sharepoint installation.SSRS server and the sharepoint technology instance are on separated machines.If you deep in MSDN articles you can find fallowing informations :

“You plan to immediately install the Reporting Services Add-in and configure report server integration settings on the SharePoint site. If the report server provides report processing capability to a SharePoint farm, you must also install a SharePoint Web front end on the report server computer so that you can join it to the farm”
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281311.aspx
“For deployments that include a SharePoint server farm, install a SharePoint Web front-end on the report server computer. The Web front-end joins the report server computer to a SharePoint farm. Installing the Web front-end on the report server computer is only necessary if you deploy the report server and the SharePoint technology instance on separate computers.”
Configuring Reporting Services for SharePoint 2010 Integration http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb326356.aspx

Conculution:
So the SSRS server must be a member of the sharepoint farm. In order to join the farm, the farm must aware of the SSRS server. So we need to install the sharepoint web front-end on the SSRS server to make it able to communicate with other machines.

Excel Service can not display workbooks in Sharepoint 2010

01/02/2012 Leave a comment

Hi Everybody,

I have recently faced for a strange issue about displaying excel workbooks on Sharepoint 2010 .
When i checked the uls logs we have multiple exceptions like.

The file that i want to open have url like http://blog.bugrapostaci.com:80/_layouts/xlviewer.aspx?id=/Shared%20Documents/CaseTest.xsls…
But  the important one is in logs   in this correlation that unrelated information log not the exceptions. This info is about :
“There is no Web named “/SiteDirectory/BlogContent/Lists/Categories/AllCategories.aspx”. in first i ignored it quickly. Than i realized that article:

Excel Calculation Service cannot display workbooks if no root site collection is created for a web application.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2596582

The sharepoint version which i was working on it is before Oct 2011 CU . The Solution is simple install at least Oct 2011 CU for fixing these errors.
