Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_OrderForms'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.OrderForms'

This may happens because a multiple users logging in and checking out under the same userid/password at the same time so same basket this may cause a corrupted basket,

any way find the solution here !

Anonymous Search Results

there is one page that is absolutely necessary for everyone to access: osssearchresults.aspx. This page presents the list of search results.

By default, viewing this page requires a user to be authenticated to the server. This can create a problem when your site definition includes the basic search control as it will attempt to render all search results on this page with Anonymous access.

locate the following text at the top of the osssearchresults.aspx (inside the < % @ Page ... /> declaration) and remove it:Inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls.LayoutsPageBase"This setting determines the inheritance of the page from the generic application page base class; however, it is not required for the page to function. Anonymous uers will be able to view the page without having to login and search results will continue to be security trimmed so users without proper permissions will be unable to view restricted items.

this is from The SharingPoint it works fine and here you are the link below.

Anonymous impersonation for FBA portals in SharePoint

We all get used to grant IUSER_computername any access we need as IUSER is the internet users that all anonymous user are impersonating when they try to access any page in your portal, and it works for only windows authentication. To do the same thing but with forms based authentication you need to
1- Store or register your IUSER for example guest to your membership repository.2- Grant that guest any access rights you want inside or outside SharePoint.3- Write some code to make all unauthorized users impersonate that guest inside the portal 'Global.asax'. which is protected void Application_AuthenticateRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e) { string cookieName = FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName; HttpCookie authCookie = Context.Request.Cookies[cookieName]; if (authCookie == null) { FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie("guest", false); } }So all the anonymous users will have a guest access 'your created guest' on your portal
For more details see the link below.

shrinking SQL database log file

use master
go

ALTER DATABASE urDataBaseName SET RECOVERY Simple --to alter the database to simple mode to accept shrinking

BACKUP LOG urDataBaseName WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY --to backup the log file before shrinking

use urDataBaseName
go

DBCC SHRINKFILE (urDataBaseName_log, TRUNCATEONLY) --shrinking the log

use master
go

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_tran_session_transactions --check on the operation

ALTER DATABASE urDataBaseName SET RECOVERY Full --reset first line

-- and if it gives you an error says cannot locate file urDataBaseName_log in sysfiles ... It could be an issue with the logical file name so make sure that the logical file name is as the physical file name.

How to Perform a Search by Using the SQL WHERE Clause in commerce server 2007

it is really nice but i am still facing problem with it :(

public static CatalogItemsDataSet SearchCatalog(CatalogContext context, string catalogName){ // Search the catalog. // Create the search options. CatalogSearchOptions searchOptions = new CatalogSearchOptions(); searchOptions.PropertiesToReturn = "CategoryName, DefinitionName, i_classtype, ProductId, VariantId, DisplayName"; searchOptions.SetPaging(1, 20); searchOptions.SortProperty = "CategoryName"; CatalogSearch catalogSearch = context.GetCatalogSearch(); // Specify the catalogs to search. // This is a comma-separated list of catalogs to search, // for example, "Catalog1,catalog2". catalogSearch.CatalogNames = catalogName; // Specify the categories to search. All categories that match the // expression are searched. This example searches all categories // that have "technical" as part of their descriptions. catalogSearch.CateoriesClause = @"Description like '%technical%'"; // Return all items with price less than $10.00. catalogSearch.SqlWhereClause = "cy_list_price<10"; // Also use the free-text search. catalogSearch.UseAdvancedFreeTextSearch = true; // Return all rows that contain the phrase "sql books". catalogSearch.AdvancedFreeTextSearchPhrase = "\"sql books\""; catalogSearch.SearchOptions = searchOptions; // Perform the search. int totalRecords = 0; CatalogItemsDataSet catalogItems = catalogSearch.Search(out totalRecords); Console.WriteLine(totalRecords); // Access each of the returned items. foreach (CatalogItemsDataSet.CatalogItem catalogItem in catalogItems.CatalogItems) { Console.WriteLine(catalogItem.CategoryName); Console.WriteLine(catalogItem.DisplayName); } return catalogItems;}

master page error : Code blocks are not allowed in this file

problem: When I assigned “application.master” or “layouts.master” pages as master page to my new developed web page, I received this error from share point:
The referenced file '/layouts.master' is not allowed on this page. at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ProcessError(String message) at System.Web.UI.BaseTemplateParser.GetReferencedType(VirtualPath virtualPath, Boolean allowNoCompile) at System.Web.UI.PageParser.ProcessMainDirectiveAttribute(String deviceName, String name, String value, IDictionary parseData) at System.Web.UI.TemplateParser.ProcessMainDirective(IDictionary mainDirective)

solution:
try to remove the ~ from the MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master" the tag inside the content page and if it still does not work, remove the / if they are "mater page and the content page" in the same root
