The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

stsadm restore had a server problem during restore. Now I can't delete, create or restore the site.

Asked by carlssj1 in MOSS-Sharepoint

Tags: , , ,

I have a WSS 3.0 installation with sp1 and the infrasture update applied.  
I submitted a batch job last night to restore quite a few production site backups onto a test farm.  The restore hung up due to a server issue and now the particular site it was restoring is hosed.  I can't delete that site, create the site, restore or import the site.  I know I can use a different name, but I want to keep my test and production site names the same.  I also don't want to start over by deleting and re-creating the web application.  Has anyone had the same issue and resolved it????
The very useful error message I am getting: Cannot complete this action. Please try again.
