Hi,

This tool has been tested on Sharepoint 2003 and 2007 databases. I never tested it on a Sharepoint 2010, although I had some report that it was working in the early days of this version. The error tells me that a table name in the database has probably changed or your not connecting to the right database. I am no more involved in Sharepoint Development and do not have a Sharepoint environment handy. That would require a lot of time for me to verify and test.

Pascal.

There will not be a 17th column (never tested it but pretty sure). Sharepoint has its limit.

Hi, I never tested it on Sharepoint 2010. I had some feed back that it was working. SQL Server 2008 should not be a problem.

Hi Pascal,

Great Article on every table in DB.

I am stuck in one weird issue and getting no solution on internet.

I am using Sharepoint 2007 with Sql Server 2008.

From your blog, I got to know that every numeric columns data are store in float1 field in UserData table. So, similarly another numeric column will store in float2 and so on up to float16. But, what will happen when 17th numeric column exists in Sharepoint List. Where Sharepoint will store it?

Pls advice. Awaiting your reply.

Thanks,
Chintan

Comment on Tomato firmware: Remote desktop through SSH, using Wake-On-Lan and configuring LAN Hostnames by Paul

Great post Pascal and great THANKS to you !
Tuned my TomatoUSB like a charm (using DD-WRT very long time).
First flashed hardware with Tomato 1.28K24 and hadn’t got PPTP working. Then tried TomatoUSB 1.28 vpn 3.6 (if I’m not mistaken). Works nice from the start. Configed SSH bec. using it for VNC and your article helped me with WOL on custom scripts. I’ve used DD-WRT quite long time and “happy” that Tomato has function not worser than there.

Thank you again !
Good Luck !

Hello Pascal,

I’m new to sharepoint and I have to export some documents and corresponding metadata(preferably in XML format) from some sharepoint libraries.

Your tool seems perfect for the job, I just have one question:
will it work on sharepoint 2010 and sql server 2008?

thanks in advance.

Thank you for this tool!! After 20 hours of work trying to attach an old content database to a new site with NO luck I ran across this. Documents exported and uploaded to new site in less than an hour.

Thanks for the detailed information! The WordPress developers should revisit how they implement cron in core.

Hi Pascal!

I want to achieve the following:

The router should be able to wake up my Server (internal LAN) in a temporal sequence. For example every day at 6am. WOL is enabled on the server and works. (tested on tomato WOL GUI)
Is it possible to implement this on the router?

- WRT54GL (Tomato 1.28)
- HP ML310 Server

Thanks for your response!

Hi Pascal,

Thank you for your tool.

I used this tool and export all of documents these are in a SPS 2003 document library.

Now I need table names and field names which have user name info “who delete files”.

And can I find a deleted file using this tool in SPS 2003 document library?

Can you help me?

Thank you very much.

it’s been a long time since I logged in DynDNS. Sure they have done some changes since the screenshot was taken. I will verify and come back with additional information.

Notice that Tomato supports other dynamic dns providers that could offer you more than DynDNS. It may be worth to look at.

There seems to be some changes at the dyndns site.
You show pictures of the account that show no need to input your IP and also in the firmware you have selected wildcard.

Are those pics from dyndns from an account that you paid for or are they of a free account?

When I sign up for an account it requires that i imput my IP Address. And also the Wildcard is only for the paid option. What is the Wildcard option you checked in the Tomato firmware?
