Provisioning issue. Rc0

Hi all and thank you for reading my post.

Looks like I have an issue with the Sharepoint timer Service. Everything in my DEV enviroment works well untill I install the 32 bit version of KN. I have followed the included documentation for install Kn on the Server and I it creates the KNID database without a hitch and then I reset the Office Search Service and then I have a look in the Event Log on the Server and I have a tonne of errors that are as follows:

Installation is all in Australian Time format as well I reproduced the Same error in US Time Format as I first thought there may have been a simple Date Month issue. But still no go.

Hi there,

I have also tried to restart various jobs in the timer service from the operations Timer definitions area (As in stopped and restarted) in combination with the Windows Service that covers this area and still no luck.

Ivan,

Me stumped on this one..... I will try to ping one of the KN product team members to jump in and have a look at these events. It may take a couple days however so be patient.

BobFoxMVP at 2007-10-3 > top of Msdn Tech,SharePoint Products and Technologies,SharePoint - Knowledge Network...

It looks like the LastProcessedDateTime value in the database was corrupted somehow. Go to your SSP Database, and look in the dbo.MIPScheduledJob table. Look for the row where DisplayName==KNCrawlSPSProfileJob. The JobData field should contain a #-delimited string. Can you post that string here?

The string should contain something like '... LastProcessedDateTime#4/25/2007 4:47:41 PM#..." If the date/ time portion looks different then that would cause a problem -- manually updating the string to a valid date/time should fix it.

It's also possible that an error message got inserted somewhere in the string (if e.g. an exception got thrown somewhere but was improperly handled), which would mess up our parsing code. If this is the case then the error message needs to be removed from the string.

I am seeing the same issue in the event logs and checked the value that you recommended Ambrosio and the value was ENABLED#TRUE. I changed it to contain a valid DateTime and still saw the same error.

Also, anytime I try to view any of the forms in the Knowledge Network section under the Shared Service administration screen I get "An operations error occurred." error screen.

Any further thoughts on what maybe causing this issue?

Hi there Gents,

My appologies for being unable to respond sooner. My efforts were similar to Jason.

Any help would be great.

Hey Guys,

I've got the same problem. My SharePoint (and the underlying Windows 2003 Server and SQL2005 DBs) locale is set to New Zealand.

I just tried setting all the dates in the JobDate field, for the KN* jobs, to be in mm/dd/yyyy format, but that doesn't seem to have helped.

But this does seem to be a locale/date format issue.

I've also noticed that when I try to de-install KN, I get left with lots of errors (and a flakey timer service) complaining that it can't find the microsoft.office.server.socialnetwork class.

I fixed this by removing one remaining KN job from that SSP table.

Hopefully someone can sort out the date issue soon, I'm chaffing at the bit, to get at this stuff!

Soon'ish

Craig

Sorry for the late response...

It would really help if someone could post the entire contents of the JobData field, so we can check this against the parser code to see where it's getting messed up.

Ambrosio,

The value that I posted before, ENABLED#TRUE, is the complete value in the JobData field.

Everyone: please try the following:

- Set your server locale (OS) to English (United States).

- Update the contents of the JobData field to just "ENABLED#TRUE." Overwrite any previous value. This should make the jobs refill the field.

- Wait for the jobs to kick in again.

Please post the results. Jason: it looks like your field is already set to just ENABLED#TRUE. Is your OS locale US?

Ambrosio,

Yes the OS locale on the server has always been US.

Is there any other items for us to look at?

Jason: can you restart the timer service?

Also, can you take a screenshot of the OS' Regional and Language Options (Control Panel), as well as the Regional Settings in the SSP's Site Settings? You can send it to my microsoft.com address (ambrob). I want to verify that the time format wasn't modified somehow.

Hi Guys,

From DB as per Ambrosio's requirements. KN installs ok then when the Portal upgrade starts (about 5 mins after install on the SSP) the error occurs. This is the Data from the IPSSchedulejob table. I will try the Table change and restart the timer to see if this helps.

Regards,

Ivan

Hi there,

Further to the information provided above, altering the Date does allow the web part fo be viewable on status until the next full schedulae comes through to which it appears that it all fails again. Central admin is obviously US format (thus te errors).. ... I guess also more so, does the Client processes data in a US format stamp this could be potentially an issue.

Ivan

This the view after I alter all the Data to the US Datas format.

Ambrosio,

Sorry for the delay in responding, I hadn’t had a chance to look at the forum in a few days.

The restart of the service did not solve the issue. I attached the screenshots that you asked for in the email I sent to you earlier today.

Also, are you seeing this issue with only US date formats? If we were to change the server region and the site’s region setting to say the UK would it work?

Regards,

Jason
