I make extensive use of the Exception Management Application block from Microsoft PAG. A common error I usually get when starting up a new project is that I haven't configured the eventlog on the Windows 2003 Server to allow writing to the eventlog for all authenticated users. The error message is:

"How do I add two or more documents as an attachement to an email from Outlook" a user asked me.

Whenever a user has requested an alert for a list or another object i Sharepoint there is a default delay of 10 minutes. Users are puzzled by not having received an alert when other users tell them that updates have been made to a list or document library.

Be very careful when installing Windows Sharepoint Services Service Pack 1. Especially make sure it's not installed as an automatic update on the server. Doing it wrong might result in

For a while now we have experienced that the sharepoint administration pages suddenly changes language from norwegian (1044) to english (1033). We got a tip from MS support that seemed to have effect instantly. By increasing the number of worker threads for the application pool running Sharepoint Portal Server the language corrected itself.

We've just deployed a solution where teamsites are generated to work with data from Navision Axapta. The point-to-point integration delivered by axapta is somewhat fragile.

If you save a list as a template in a WSS team site and later on go to the create page, this listtemplate appears as one of the list types you can create new instances of on all subsites of the top-level website (sitecollection) that you've stored the template in.

It's deployment day. In 30 minutes we'll pass midnight, and deployment is largely withheld by minor errors in the templates. So, why could document templates make such a big difference?
