If I want to have a quick look at the results on the website in my work in MDriven, is there perhaps an easy shortcut for me to do that, or else, is the link displayed somewhere in a menu so I can copy it?
I'm using the turnkey package.
Thanks a lot.
To get your site runnning in the cloud you can use a Sample site. The sample site is requested and is yours for 1 hour.
You will find a "request Demo site" button under https://portal.mdriven.net MyTurnkeySites.
Once you have the demo site you will find it under the cloud icon in MDriven Designer -> upload and you are done
I've been searching for information on how to do this but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for after a few hours on Google.
I have a form on a public website (old asp unfortunately) that when filled out and submitted, must update a list on a SharePoint 2010 site.
I know that the answer should be in a "lists.asmx" web service, but I'm having a hard time finding a web tutorial on setting this up.
If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.
I am trying to do something similar, and i found this blog post quite useful.

Take a look at the documentation for UpdateListItem

I've built a custom SharePoint 2010 web part and deployed it to the home page of a publishing site. It's a very simple web part that just displays items from a SP list in a drop down list. The web part works fine if I'm logged in as a site owner or a member but not if I'm just a reader. The web part doesn't render at all to readers. I don't get any of the web part chrome or title, just nothing. I have other web parts (out-of-box ones) in the same zone that are displaying fine so it's not an issue of the whole zone not displaying.
As a reader, I can still view the list directly so it doesn't appear to be a problem with list permissions.
My web parts are being deployed as a farm solution, not sand-boxed and the assembly is being deployed to the GAC.
I feel like I must be missing something simple here but I'm stumped. Help.
Did you save / Check in the page after editing?

You may have to actually publish the page for a reader to see it
Does anybody know how to find offending web part which causes this error ?
“A Web Part or Web Form Control on this Web Part Page cannot be displayed or imported because it is not registered on this site as safe.”
I have inherited an old SharePoint 2003 portal site which uses custom web parts.
I know what this error means. I also know that each web part must be installed and registred as safe in web.config. The problem is that I don't know which one is missing.
I get same error when I'm trying to open the page in FrontPage as well.
Use contents=1 in QueryString to disable/remove WebParts from page that causes errors.
stsadm.exe -o enumallwebs -includewebparts
http://sharepointreporter.wordpress.com/
Requires updating to Sp2 I believe, for this command to be available. Problematic web parts will appear as 'Missing' in the resultant list.
Go to Event Viewer of the machine and you shall be able to see Error entries. Out of tons of entries you have to find out the entries related to you and you shall be able to see the names of the webparts that the sharepoint site is trying to load but fails. If you shall read the complete description of the error entry in the Event Viewer, it will give you version and even PublicKey Token of the webpart as well.
I hope this helps!!!
Try reading this:
http://www.bluedoglimited.com/SharePointThoughts/ViewPost.aspx?ID=189
It should give you some clues to solving the problem. Essentially you have a control that is not marked as safe and it is failing. You can most likely config it to work, but the link above has other possible solutions.
in your url just append content=1. This will give you the all the webparts that are deployed. Now, you can keep deleting each of the webpart to find which one is causing issue ( ensure that you know to add the web parts back).
For example: if Url is http://localhost:9000/default.aspx, try with http://localhost:9000?contents=1
Alternatively, try to create a new webpart page,add web parts that are there on your actual page and check which one is causing issue. This will avoid changes to the actual page.
Hope this helps.
I've just suggested this same answer on MSDN:
This stsadm helped me in finding where the webpart was referenced in any way:
stsadm -o enumallwebs -includewebparts > C:\temp\somelog.txt
Then you can see the web part is listed under some <Web Id=... Url=...> XML node, i.e. you know the "culprit" web site.
At that point, some reasons I've found for those forgotten references:
the webpart is used in some sub-site of the culprit website, and the sub site is hidden from the quick list or top bar
the webpart has been deleted from the culprit website, but it still is in the "site collection recycle bin". You can reach that by going to the normal website recycle bin, then look for its link on the top bar description ("Use this page to restore items that..."). By the way, this site collection recycle bin has two views itself: be sure to check them both.
In both cases, I got some help by browsing the culprit website with SharePoint Manager. With that I could easily spot the existence of a forgotten subsite, as well as the existence of this "second level recycle bin".
HTH
I get an "Unknown Error" when I click on any of the web parts in the gallery. What can cause this?
Thanks,
Eric
Some webparts require configuration prior to them working propery. In these cases you need to add the webpart to a page and click the drop down and configure what ever it asks for. The other possibility is that you did not deploy the webpart correctly or you are missing something that it is looking for.
