I'm installing CS 2007 developer on a Windows 2003 Server image.  I believe I 
 
followed the steps in the installation guide very carefully - but I may have 
 
missed something.

Hi, 
 
I´ve created some customs profiles, like ComercialAddress, and others. Now I 
 
need to search in this customs profiles for some data. I´m using the 
 
ProfilesWebService.asmx, to get an ProfileManagementContext object and 
 
search for the registers in customs profile. The problem is that the 
 
profile.GetSearchableEntities() method doesn´t "see" this customs profiles, 
 
just the "default" ones. 
 
Anyone know how I can search in my customs profiles using the Web Services? 
 
Any idea? 
 
Thanks!

Hi 
 
Is it possible to create a new shipping mode for Commerce? 
 
The client wants something that obeys the equation 
 
C = F + w * ppf 
 
Cost = Fee + weight * per pound fee 
 
I'd like to somehow manage the current administrative tools to configure 
 
the different values for different carriers. My code would pre-select 
 
the proper method based on where it's going and how it's going there. I 
 
just want the business user to have a nice UI to configure the values. 
 
So, is it possible? 
 
Thanks

Hi all! 
 
When looking at the profile definitions in the Commerce Server 
 
Mangager, the above message is displayed in a dialog box. 
 
How do I resolve this error? 
 
I've searched the web and I understand that there is some kind of 
 
mismatch with collations. But I haven't found any useful description. 
 
How do I know which collation to use to resolve it? 
 
And if I change the collation what impact will it have? It is simple to 
 
change the collation, but is it safe? 
 
Any advice, tip or link would be appreciated. 
 
Thank you!

I am installing Commerce Server 2007 with a separate database server and 
 
having problem with creating SQL database accounts. I have created all user

The "Grant Web Services Access to the Databases" section of the

We have a requirement where a customer wants to have separate price 
 
lists for each Account in their B2B Commerce Server application. I 
 
believe that this is a pretty standard requirement for B2B, and was 
 
wondering what would be the best architectural approach. 
 
My initial thoughts would be to use Virtual Catalogue, as this customer 
 
has around 100 accounts this could mean the management and maintenance 
 
of 100 virtual catalogues. 
 
Anybody out there done anything similar? How did  ...

Hi all, 
 
I want to search all UserObject profile where first_name contains "Andrew". 
 
I saw that I can do this using ProfileWebService. Because some performance

way to search for profiles like this? 
 
Any tips? 
 
Thanks!

I am using BuildURL from QueryStringBuilder class from CommerceContext class 
 
and it clearly states that  "the first request to the site, there is no 
 
auto-redirect for cookie detection and the default setting for the

Hi there. 
 
Any assistance regarding this would be greatly appreciated. 
 
I recently took over a MSIB21 environment using Commerce Server 2002, 
 
Content Management Server 2002 and Windows 2003. 
 
The problem I am facing is this. 
 
The Live server seems to be configured correctly but the Dev/Staging 
 
(installed on one server) does not refelct the structure of the live server 
 
and this is causing a lot of problems for us. From what I have gathered:

Is it possible in CS 2002 or CS 2007 to develop a custom pipeline that makes 
 
calls to native Commerce Service objects, like loading a profile object 
 
based on the user id retrieved from the OrderForm IDictionary? 
 
Alternatively, is there a way to add custom items to the OrderForm 
 
IDictionary that is passed to my custom pipeline? 
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi, 
 
We are using CS2002 with SQL2k and VS.net 2003 on Win2003. We have created a 
 
few profiles in CS2002, and they are working properly in ASP.net. The 
 
profiles typically have the following fields: 
 
Full Name 
 
Address 
 
Phone 
 
Country 
 
Bio 
 
Links 
 
The users have to personalize their content and then publish their profile 
 
pages, and they get a virtual directory created in IIS. The published profile 
 
pages are stored as an ASPX page under the user's directory. The data in ...

Hello, 
 
I am new to ASP.NET and CS2007, in the document of CS2007 states following: 
 
"For best performance, do not create multiple CatalogContext objects. 
 
Instead, create a single instance and reuse it for the lifetime of the 
 
application." 
 
Could you tell me what is the best practice to create a single instance and 
 
reuse it for the lifetime of the application in ASP.NET 2.0. 
 
Thank you in Advance.

We need to send emails with dynamic content for each user. To accomplish 
 
this using direct mailer, we tried creating campaigns and list for each email
