Sometimes The SSP you create in MOSS are not created properly. This can be result of interruption while SSP was being created or in result of bad migration from SPS03 or MCMS to MOSS. Symptoms: 1. In left nav of SharePoint Central Administration, the name of your new SSP will not render rather, it will show up as text. 2.

Recently I ran into a problem while dealing with DataSets. I was adding a colum to an XSD through Visual Studio desinger and it kept failing with following error: Cannot add a SimpleContent column to a table containing element columns or nested relations. This is a known issue. However, the solution is not well known :) To be simple and streight forward, I tell you the solution which I tried and it worked, 1.

I tried to restore SharePoint 2003 portal on SQL Server 2005 and it failed with following error even though I granted db owner rights to the user: Portal creation failed System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The server principal "domain\sharepointadmin" is not able to access the database "ORG_SITE" under the current security context. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Data.a.c(SqlCommand A_0, Boolean A_1) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Data.a.b(SqlCommand A_0) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Topology.Database.d(a A_0, String A_1) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Topology.Database.a(String A_0, String A_1, String A_2, Boolean A_3) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Admin.c.b() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Admin.c.f() Investigation the issue, it ended up as a SQL server's security issue. Resolution: I granted the domain\sharepointadmin user sysadmin role on the SQL Server 2005 and problem was solved! It restored portal smoothly.
