SharePoint 2010 upgrade from 2007 (content database, UI etc)

-
Upgrade is always painful. SharePoint is no exception. Microsoft has suggested two ways of upgrade: inplace and database upgrade. All articles suggest database upgrade, which is also my choice. I don't trust third party migration tools. They will mess up the whole thing as I tried the most famous one, and missed a lot of things. However I don't trust Microsoft either, maybe SharePoint itself too. Firstly I exported content database to new farm. The PowerShell window in SharePoint 2010 menu must be opened as Administrator. Run Test-SPContentDatabase in the new farm then it reported some error. Check the log it says some features are missing. Those features have already deleted but some elements still reference to them. After some search I found a tool that claims to remove even the toughest features. It's called WssRemoveFeatureFromSite written by an MS guy. Still one feature can't be deleted. My colleage suggested me to create a dummy feature using the same GUID. It&#

Ubuntu upgrade

-
Ubuntu upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 was very successful and straightforward. Everything started normally except VMWare. When I run VMWare on console it returns: $ vmware Logging to /tmp/vmware-ubuntu/setup-15021.log modinfo: could not find module vmmon modinfo: could not find module vmnet modinfo: could not find module vmblock modinfo: could not find module vmci modinfo: could not find module vsock modinfo: could not find module vmmon modinfo: could not find module vmnet modinfo: could not find module vmblock modinfo: could not find module vmci modinfo: could not find module vsock Segmentation fault I thought it was the same problem as before when the kernel is updated. So I ran the setup program again with root account. The bundle program uninstalled and reinstalled VMWare for me. However the result was the same, it didn't solve the problem. After research on Internet I found the following solution that worked for me: sudo mv /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary /usr/lib/vmware/modules/bin

Emacs keybinding in Visual Studio 2010

-
I've been using Visual Studio 2010 from early last year. Unfortunately I used to emacs many years ago. In Visual Studio 2008 and earlier versions there's a key mapping settings for emacs. However MS seized support since 2010 beta version. I always pressed wrong key and gain much anger at Visual Studio as all my other IDEs are using emacs key bindings, including emacs and Eclipse. Later last year, all my projects were ported to Visual Studio 2010 from 2008. Since then I was trying to convince myself the shortcut keys used in many MS editors – word, notepad, SQL management studio etc. But – compromise is not the only solution! I found this: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2010/09/01/emacs-emulation-extension-now-available.aspx I was wondering why I didn’t find it earlier as it released last year! Maybe my frustration with the beta version didn’t evoke my hope. This one is among the best tastes in Visual Studio 2010. Shame for MS. I wish someone would also make sa
