Japanese version of SharePoint Portal Server 2001, and then you specify the URL
of the shared folder and add the shared folder as a content source, you may
receive an error message that is similar to the following:
Update failed.
If you view the detailed log of
the error message, you see entries that are similar to the following:
Message: URL is excluded because the URL extension is
restricted as defined in the file type rules
Message: URL is excluded by
the server (robots.txt, no-index attribute on the URL, encrypted file, or a
search folder), or a redirected to an excluded URL
This problem
occurs if the name of the folder contains Double-Byte Character Set (DBCS)
characters.
Certain properties of a document in a document library are not displayed if you access the document by using Web folders
When you access a document in a document library by using Web
folders, and then you view a document property such as Description, you may
find that the property that you want to view is missing. This problem occurs if
the document property is a Comment type of property, and the value of the
property contains a string that is longer than 1024 characters. For example,
this problem may occur if Description document property contains more than 1024
characters.
"The properties of this document cannot be saved." error message when you try to save a document in SharePoint Portal Server 2001
When you open and then try to save a document, such as a Microsoft
Word document, in SharePoint Portal Server, you may receive the following error
message:
The properties of this document cannot be saved.
The server is not available, or your account cannot be
authenticated.
This problem may occur in situations when the Temporary
Internet folder on the client computer is full.
"Failed to get subscription" error message when you subscribe to a folder or to a document that uses a profile whose name contains Japanese Katakana characters or full-width numerals
If you subscribe to a folder or to a document in
SharePoint Portal Server 2001, you may receive the following error message:

You receive an error message when you open a Word document if you create a macro that removes the SharePoint Portal Server 2001 commands from Word
If the client components for SharePoint Portal Server are
installed on your computer, and you create a macro in Word to remove SharePoint
Portal Server commands from the menus that are in Word, you may receive an
error message that is similar to the following when you open a Word document:
Some SharePoint Portal Server menu items could not be
found.

The names of certain Web folders are incorrect, and you cannot view the contents of the Web folders
You may find that the names of certain Web folders appear
incorrectly when you connect to a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace. You
cannot open and view the Web folders. This problem may occur if the following
conditions are true:
- The name of the Web folder contains one or more extended
characters.
- The Web site is configured to use a Transmission Control
Protocol (TCP) port that is different from the default port 80.
In this situation, the Microsoft OLE DB provider for Internet
Publishing (Msdaipp.dll) incorrectly processes the URL if the URL contains
extended characters and a TCP port other than port 80.
You are repeatedly prompted to type your user name and password to authenticate to the server when you open a published Microsoft Office 2000 document in a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 document library
When you connect to a SharePoint Portal Server workspace by using
Web folders, and you open a published document that is stored in a document
library, you are repeatedly prompted to type your user name and password to
authenticate to the server. For example, you may be prompted three times to
type your user name and password before the document opens. This problem may
occur if the Web site is configured to use Basic authentication and the
document that you want to open is an Office 2000 document.
When you rename a subfolder in a Web folder, you have to press F5 update the screen before the new name is displayed
When you connect to a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace by
using Web folders, and you rename a subfolder in the Web folder, the new name
of the subfolder is not displayed until you press F5 to update the screen.

When you connect to a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace by
using Web folders, upload a large file to the Web folder, and then click
Cancel to cancel the operation, Windows Explorer unexpectedly
stops responding (hangs). This problem occurs if you copy or move a large file
to the Web folder, and then cancel the operation. For example, this problem
occurs if the file is 20 megabytes (MB).
You cannot use Web folders to connect to the SharePoint Portal Server workspace if a Group Policy redirects the Application Data folder of your user profile to a different folder
You may find that if a Group Policy that redirects the Application
Data folder of your user profile to a different folder is applied to your user
account, you cannot create a Web folder to connect to a SharePoint Portal
Server workspace.
CPU usage in the Cscript.exe file process or in the Mssearch.exe file process unexpectedly increases to 100 percent
You may find that in certain situations, performance is slower
than expected on a server that is running SharePoint Portal Server 2001. When
you open
Task Manager and then view the list of process that
are running on the server, you see that the CPU usage is 100 percent in the
Cscript.exe file process or in the Mssearch.exe file process. This problem is
not resolved if you shut down, and then restart the server.

using Web folders, and you open a hidden subfolder that is located in the Web
folder, you may find that a red "X" in a white box appears in the left pane of
Windows Explorer. A listing of the details of the folder is not displayed as
expected.
You receive the "The file or folder you are opening contains Web content that may be unsafe" message when you open a Web folder from a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer
When you use Web folders to connect to a SharePoint Portal Server
2001 workspace from a computer that is running Windows XP, and then you open
the Web folder or a subfolder that is contained in the Web folder, a
Security Alert dialog appears that displays the following
message: The file or folder you are opening contains
Web content that may be unsafe. The Web content has either been modified or is
from an unknown source. Do you want to allow it to be initialized and be
accessed by script?You do not receive this message if you use Web

Vertical scroll bar partially covers the calendar when you change a document profile
When you change the document profile of a document in SharePoint
Portal Server 2001, and you click the calendar icon that is displayed next to
the
Date box in the document profile to view the calendar, you
may find that the vertical scroll bar that appears on the right part of the
DocumentName Properties dialog box
partially covers the calendar. Therefore, you cannot view the dates that are
displayed on the right part of the calendar. You experience these symptoms if
you use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 or later where the width of the padding
between cells in a table is changed from earlier versions of Internet Explorer.
You receive the "Special characters are not able to used for schema objects" error message when you create a new document property in a document profile
When you try to create a new document property in a document
profile, you may receive the following error message:
Special characters are not able to used for schema
objects
You receive this error message if the name of the document
property contains one or more full-width alphabet characters or full-width
numeric characters. You cannot use these types of characters in document
property names. The error message that appears when you use full-width alphabet
characters or full-width numeric characters in the name of a document property
is confusing, and it does not contain information that helps you resolve the
issue.
You cannot check-in a document or open the Add Document Profile Wizard in a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace from a computer that is running the Japanese version of Windows 98
When you use Web folders to connect to the workspace from a

that are located in subfolders of the Categories folder, the text that is
contained in the description that appears in the left pane is different for
each subcategory.
You receive the "One or more users cannot be added to a role because the user domain and server domain do not have a trust relationship" error message
When you try to add a user who is located in another forest to a
folder in the SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace, you receive the
following error message:
One or more users cannot be added
to a role because the user domain and server domain do not have a trust
relationship.
You receive an error message when you use Microsoft FrontPage to open a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 Web site that is a subsite of the root Web site
When you use FrontPage to open a SharePoint Portal Server Web site
that is a subsite of the root Web site, you may receive an error message that
is similar to the following:
The folder
'http://ServerName/sites/RootSiteName'
is not accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable location,
protected with a password, or the filename contains a / or \.
Contents of a folder is unexpectedly listed in the document that opens when you open a Web folder in the SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace from an Office program
When you click
Open on the
File
menu in a Microsoft Office 2003 program, such as Microsoft Office Word 2003,
and then you type the URL of a Web folder in the
Open box, the
contents of the folder is unexpectedly listed in the document that opens. This
problem occurs if a network place shortcut to the root SharePoint Portal Server
Web site exists in My Network Places.
A network place shortcut to a subfolder in a document library does not work as expected
When you create a shortcut to a subfolder that is located in a
document library in My Network Places, the shortcut may not work as expected.
You may experience unexpected behavior when you view the contents of the
subfolder. This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
- The name of document library contains a space
character.
- The name of the subfolder contains one or more high-ASCII
characters.
The list of approvers in the Approvers tab for a folder in a SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace is incorrect
When you configure a serial approval route for a folder in a
workspace, and you add users to the list of approvers on the
Approval tab, the list of users may be incorrect. For example,
some users may appear more than one time on the list. This problem may occur if
the user accounts are local computer accounts and SharePoint Portal Server
incorrectly processes the user names.
The "FileName is locked by editing by UserName" message is not displayed if you use Web folders to open an Office document that is already opened by another user
When you connect to the SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace by
using Web folders and you open an Office document that is already opened by
another user, you do not receive the following message:
FileName is locked by editing by
UserName. Instead, you receive a message
that tells you that the file is checked out by another user. This problem
occurs if your user name contains one or more Double Byte Character Set (DBCS)
characters.
The order of properties in a document profile is not retained after you add a new property
In SharePoint Portal Server 2001, when you add a new property to
the list of properties that are contained in a document profile, the order of
the properties on the list changes. Because the order of the properties is not
retained, you have to rearrange the position of the properties on the list to
use the order that existed before you added the new property.
Functionality that you expect to see in the Properties dialog box is missing when you use an Office 2003 program to open, and then right-click a file or a folder in a document library
When you click
Open on the
File
menu in an Office 2003 program, such as Word 2003, right-click a file or a
folder in a SharePoint Portal Server workspace, and then click
Properties, you cannot perform certain operations on that file
or folder. Functionality that you expect to see in the
Properties dialog box is missing. For example, you cannot view
or use features of enhanced folders. This problem occurs if the folder that
opens when you click
Open on the
File menu in
the Office program is a Web folder to a document library.
Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 or Word 2003 stops responding when you publish or save a document to a document library in SharePoint Portal Server 2001
When you use an Office 2003 program, such as InfoPath 2003 or Word
2003, to open, and then publish or save a document to a document library, the
Office program unexpectedly stops responding (hangs). This problem may occur if
you logged on to SharePoint Portal Server as a user who has administrator
credentials to the Web site, and the user account was deleted from the Web site
after the document was opened and before the document was published or saved to
the server.
You receive an error message, and you cannot save a Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 document or a Microsoft Office Excel 2003 document to a document library by using the Save As command
If you open a PowerPoint 2003 or Excel 2003 document that is
stored in a document library in SharePoint Portal Server 2001, make changes to
the document, and then save the document to the document library by using the
Save As command, you may receive an error message that says
that the file cannot be found. This problem occurs if the name of the document
contains a space character that is followed by a high-ASCII character.
You cannot save a Microsoft Excel 2000 or a Microsoft Word 2000 document to a mapped folder on a computer that is running Microsoft Office Server Extensions
On a Microsoft Windows NT 4.0-based computer that is running
Microsoft Office 2000 and the client components for SharePoint Portal Server
2001, you may find that you cannot save an Excel 2000 or Word 2000 document to
a mapped folder on a computer that is running Microsoft Office Server
Extensions.
Additional characters appear in the error message that you receive when you try to name a folder by using restricted characters
When you create a new folder in SharePoint Portal Server 2001, and
the name of the folder contains one or more restricted characters, you receive
an error message that is similar to the following:
A file
name cannot contain any of the following characters:
\/:*?"<>|~
This problem occurs
because the error message is incorrectly encoded. The correct error message
displays only the following characters:
You receive the "The file or folder properties cannot be read, because of the error (0x800706ba)" error message when you click Workspace Settings in the Management folder
When you connect to the Management folder in the
SharePoint Portal Server 2001 workspace, and then click
Workspace
Settings, you may receive the following error message:
The file or folder properties cannot be read, because of
the error (0x800706ba).
