INTRODUCTION

List of issues fixed

This hotfix package fixes the following issues that were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

Consider the following scenario. You create a managed property by using the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 object model. You add the property to a document, and then you upload the document to a document library on a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Web site. After a full crawl or an incremental crawl is performed, you try to search for the document that contains the managed property. When the results of the search are returned, the document that contains the managed property is not found.
In an e-mail message, you click a hyperlink for an assignment in a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 site. When you do this, you receive the following error message:
There has been an error while loading the form. Click try again to attempt to load form again. If this error persists, contact the support team for the web site.

Click close to exit this message.

The URL URL_path is an unsupported relative URL. Use an absolute URL of prefix with '~sitecollection, for a site-collection-relative URL.
You make a change to the Manager field in the Active Directory directory service. Then, you perform an incremental update or a full update. When you do this, the Manager field in the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 site is not updated in the profile of the user. However, if another field, such as the Contact Number field, is also updated, both the Contact Number field and the Manager field are updated in the SharePoint Profile database.
When you use the Advanced search feature in the document library in a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 portal site to search for a document that contains a space in the file name, the document is not returned in the Search Results page. However, the document is returned in the search results if you specify the first part of the file name as the keyword for the search.

For example, a document that is named "Intranet Migration.doc" may not appear in the Advanced search results. If you use "Intranet" or "Migration" as the keyword for the search, the document is returned in the search results.

This issue occurs because the file name property is stored in the Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 portal library with an encoded "%20." The file name property is not stored with a space.

New Stsadm.exe tool operation added

Microsoft has added a new operation to the Stsadm.exe command-line tool to change the URL of a host-named site collection to a new URL. This new operation is included in this hotfix package.
