31/10/2012 17:36

I started my career in Sharepoint developer (be frank as a learner) in Aug 2012.Still that I didnt come across the Sharepoint and dot net technologies during my college days.

Now its time for learning a new Microsoft technology "Sharepoint" which have a mass opening in all business platforms specifically  we can say means ,we opt for colloboration business platform and building the internet as well as intranet portals.

I am pausing my intro about sharepoint here.Lets have a Quick walkthrough of "How to create a Site(say for example Team Site) in sharepoint".

 

 

 

                            Site creation in sharepoint 2010

There are two ways to create site collection

1. create new web application->site collection

2. From existing web application ->site collection(saves space and its preferable).

Here we are using first method :

  1. Go to Central Administration-> Application Management, then select Manage Web Application
  2. Select new web application
  3. Provide  your desired sharepoint web application name.(select classic mode authentication
  4. check the url for creating sharepoint  web application.
  5. select pre-defined network services
  6. Select Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation Search server as PCID(here PC229797).Then proceed with Ok
  7. Message Dialog pops with successful creation of new web application in sharepoint 2010.

 

Note:

Without site collection creation, if we open our web application means we will get Error.

Go to central Admin -> Application Management.

Here we can check our newly created web application

 

Web application is created successfully. Next we proceed in creating site collection for our sites.
