3. SharePoint 2010 Architecture

4. SharePoint 2010 Client Installation
Start with the SharePoint.exe file for SharePoint Foundation or SharePoint Server 2010. Extract the files from SharePoint.exe with the following
command line. A user account control (UAC) prompt might appear at this point.
SharePoint.exe /extract:c:SharePointFiles
This extracts all of the installation files to your hard drive. Use a folder you can recognize easily later, such as c:SharePointFiles. This allows you
to repeat the installation steps without extracting the package again and enables access to the configuration file that needs tweaking, to permit
installation on Windows Vista or Windows 7:
c:SharePointFilesFilesSetupconfig.xml
Add the following line to the end of the config.xml file:
<Setting Id="AllowWindowsClientInstall" Value="True"/>
The complete file should now look like this:
<Configuration>
<Package Id="sts">
<Setting Id="SETUPTYPE" Value="CLEAN_INSTALL" />
</Package>
<DATADIR Value="%CommonProgramFiles%Microsoft SharedXWeb Server
Extensions14Data" />
<Logging Type="verbose" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Windows
SharePoint Services 4.0 Setup *.log" />
<Setting Id="UsingUIInstallMode" Value="1" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="Never" />
<Setting Id="AllowWindowsClientInstall" Value="True"/>
</Configuration>

5. Debugging the Server
 A web application consists of several parts. IIS plays a significant role—each request and
response passes through IIS. Debugging the server includes a way to debug IIS to see what data
is transmitted from the browser to the server and back. Despite debugging, performance issues
often arise. To test your SharePoint application under load, a stress test tool is essential.
 If your SharePoint server does not respond as expected and the debugger does not reveal useful
results—probably because an internal module beyond your access scope fails—you need more
tools. SharePoint hides error message and replaces stack traces, exception messages, and logs
with almost useless information. It's primarily designed for end users, and they might get
frightened when a NullReferenceException is displayed (e.g., "Did I lose all my data now?"). In
your development environment, you can turn on developer-friendly (and therefore user-
unfriendly) error messages by setting the appropriate parameters in the web.config
file:<configuration>
<SharePoint>
<SafeMode CallStack="true" ... />
...
</SharePoint>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="off" />
...
</system.web>
</configuration>

6. How to Check Errors
 Look into the event log for SharePoint.
 Look into the SharePoint logs.
 Attach a debugger to the working process and watch for
exceptions.
 Look into the IIS logs.
 Add tracing to your code and watch the traces.
 Consider remote debugging if the target machine has no
debugger installed.
 Let's consider each of these alternatives in more detail.
 Looking into the Event Log for SharePoin

7.  Looking into the SharePoint and IIS Logs
SharePoint itself writes a lot of data into the logs if it is enabled in Central Administration. During the
development and test cycle, we strongly recommend activating the logs. You can find the logging files in
<%CommonProgramFiles%>Microsoft SharedWeb Server Extensions14L0GS
 The IIS logs are found here:
<%SystemRoot%>System32LogFiles Ex:(C:WindowsSystem32LogFiles)
The IIS logs contain information about each request and the response. If you match certain reactions of
SharePoint with the event of a specific request, there is a good chance of Unding the reason for some unexpected
behavior.
If you suspect that your code is causing the miss-behaviour and the debugger disturbs the data flow, a private
trace is a good option. Just write useful information from your code to a trace provider. You can turn tracing on
and off by setting the appropriate options in the application's web.config file:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<trace enabled="true" requestLimit="40" localOnly="false"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

8. Activate the Developer Dashboard
$level="On"
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoi
nt")
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName
("Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration")
$contentSvc=[Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentSer
vice
$contentSvc.DeveloperDashboardSettings.DisplayLevel=
([Enum]::Parse(
[Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPDeveloperDashboardLevel],
$level))
$contentSvc.DeveloperDashboardSettings.Update()
Write-Host("Current Level: " +
$contentSvc.DeveloperDashboardSettings.DisplayLevel)
“On”: Activate the Developer Dashboard
“Off”: Deactivate
On and Off are Case Sensitive.

10. SharePoint Request Pipeline

11. Application Pool
 The application pool was introduced with IIS 6 to allow the
complete isolation of applications from each other. This
means that IIS is able to completely separate things
happening in one application from those in another.
Keeping applications together in one pool can still make
sense, because another pool creates its own worker process,
and will use more resources.
 Separate applications make the web server more reliable. If
one application hangs, consumes too much CPU time, or
behaves unpredictably, it affects its entire pool. Other
application pools (and the applications within them) will
continue to run. In addition, the application pools are
highly configurable.

12. Data Base in Sharepoint

13. GHOSTING AND UNGHOSTING
 In SharePoint, most of the site pages derive from templates. The custom pages only
store the difference between the custom page and the associated template. The
template is loaded in memory and applied to the custom pages on the fly. Holding
the template in the memory is like having it in a cache. This adds performance and
flexibility. The flexibility is achieved when you change the template page—all the
associated custom pages are updated with the new appearance. Custom pages are
loaded from the file system. Such pages are called ghosted pages.
 When page data is loaded from the content database, it's called an unghosted page.
That's normally the default way you treat custom pages. Internally, the unghosted
pages are supported by two tables. The page requires an entry in the document table
because pages are elements within a document library. The content table contains
the actual source code of the ASPX page required to execute the page.
 When a page is requested, SharePoint first checks in the document table and then
goes to the content table to load the page. If it does not find data for the page, it
goes to the file directory to load the page. This entire page-loading process is
performed by the ASP.NET runtime using the SPVirtualPathProvider mentioned
earlier. This ensures flexible access as well as full control over the loading
procedure.

16. Web Part
 Create Visual Web Parts for SharePoint 2010
1. Start Visual Studio 2010, click File, point to New, and then click Project.
2. Navigate to the Visual C# node in the Installed Templates section, click SharePoint, and
then click 2010.
3. Select the Visual Web Part project template, provide a name, a location for your project,
and then click OK.
4. Select the Deploy as a farm solution option and then click Finish.
5. Check Features and Package
6. Add a Label and Button, write button click event.
7. Deploy web part.
8. Add Web part in a any page.
9. Attach Debugger.

17. SharePoint 2010 Development
 Open Visual Studio 201o
 Create a blank SharePoint 2010 Solution.
 Create a Sample Visual WebPart and Check Properties
F4
 Deploy Web part.
 Show how to add new item to a project.
 Show WSP file.
 Deploy using VS 2010.
