SharePoint:Site Features in SharePoint Site

If you want to see site features in SharePoint Site and in Web

_layouts/managefeatures.aspx?scope=Web for Web
_layouts/managefeatures.aspx?scope=Site for Site

SharePoint:The site is not valid. The 'Pages' document library is missing

Issue:

When i tried to create a page using Site actions in the site i get the following error
The site is not valid. The 'Pages' document library is missing

Resolution:

It was given that go to site features and activate "Office SharePoint Server Publishing Feature"
but it was already in actived!!!! so what to do now

I have managed to fix this. When you upgrade, the root site needs the site publishing feature deacitvating and reactivating.
Try running this:
stsadm -o deactivatefeature -name PublishingWeb -url https://UrlOfPublishingSite -force
iisreset
stsadm -o activatefeature -name PublishingWeb -url https://UrlOfPublishingSiteiisreset

Thats it!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent blog for SharePoint issues.

Hi i have found an excellent blog with awsome solutions give

SharePoint:Shared Services Error "An indexer is not assigned to the Shared Services Provider 'SharedServices1"

 I was unable to import user profiles, after our development server crashed and fortunately we restored it using the last known back-up of the Virtual machine. All of a sudden our user profiles import and search crawling and indexing services stopped abruptly, throwing a nasty "An indexer is not assigned to the Shared Services Provider 'SharedServices1' error.

Luckily i found a solution for the same:


a. Log in to Central Administration
b. Select your Shared Services provider and choose "Edit Properties" from the drop-down context menu
c. Configure your Index server and it works like a charm...

SharePoint:The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service

Resolution:

There was a SharePoint farm not returning search results. The error it returned was

"The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service"

After looking at it, it was a very simple fix. The server wasn't configure to server search queries. A simple ticking of the box in central admin and it fixed the problem. To fix this:
  • Go to Central Admin

  • Operations

  • Services on Server

  • Office SharePoint Server Search Service Setting

  • Make sure "User this server for serving search queries" is checked.


  • Thats it!!!!!!!!!!

    Another thing that could be causing it is the Account used to search might not have the right access needed or the Search services aren't running. Check that

    • Office SharePoint Server Search and
    • Windows SharePoint Services Search

    Should be both running. If you're still having problems, let me know and I'll try to help you out.
