Oh, and just for completeness sake, the error message I was getting until I made Person repeating was:

The element ‘elemnet′ in namespace ‘,em>namespave′ has an invalid child element ‘Person’ in namesapce.

Found my common mistake:

Make sure that the person field is repeating

oops.

Your post helped, thanks!

I lead a training class a week or two ago and I noticed that 2 out of 3 participants had no problems whatsoever with the contact selector, however, there’s always that one machine that refuses to behave. Try a different build or machine and see if it works there, it’s terribly fickle.

Arjita,

I read through your post a few days back and have been thinking about it ever since. Here’s what I’m thinking you could (and I must stress the “could” do). If you take a look at each web application in IIS you can see the virtual directory for all application pages (the pages not strored in the content databases), a creative admin could make a copy of the target directory, _LAYOUTS in this case which access c:\program files\common files\microsft shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS and literally make a copy of the directory. So effectively you would have 2 LAYOUTS directory, one for each web application.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Good point, I’ve been wrong before and I’ll be wrong again, but I’m hoping this at least lead you in the right direction? Let me know the result and I’ll update the post.

I went through the process, but am still getting errors. It is curious that the error has to do with Local Activation, but yet the article says to grant Local Launch permission. I’m going to grant Local Activation permission as well to see if that helps.

Really helpful…had a few problems getting my capitalisation right on the xml file initially but your confident “don’t worry” section with common mistakes helped me press on!

Hi ..this is great,,Do you know if we can set it only for one web application Versus the entire server?

Worked like a charm ..But the problem is one of our users loves this features of having it checked by default..while the other detests it..They are both on different web applications but the same server..Do you know if we can enable it for a web application only instead of the whole server

Thanks in advance

I fixed the “XML file:” naming problem – USER ERROR!

Instead of clicking BROWSE I should have clicked RESOURCE FILE (As instructed).

Alas – still a NoGo.
