I'm getting the "A Web Part ... cannot be displayed or imported because it is
not registered on this site as safe." error when trying to add a web part I
developed and I'm hoping someone can give me some ideas.

I compiled the web part and put it in a CAB using Visual Studio 2003 and
deployed using stsadm. I've tried using more or less of the namespace in the
dwp and web.config files with no luck.

The assembly name is SSRTestLibrary and the full class name is:

SWMED.CIS.TestLibrary.SSRList

Here are the relevent file snips

dwp file:
----------

<WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2" >
<Title>SSR List</Title>
<Description>SSR Selection List</Description>
<Assembly>SSRTestLibrary</Assembly>
<TypeName>TestLibrary.SSRList</TypeName>
<!-- Specify initial values for any additional base class or custom
properties here. -->
</WebPart>

web.config:
-------------
<SafeControl Assembly="SSRTestLibrary,
Version=1.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=206b470c9c36637a"
Namespace="SWMED.CIS.TestLibrary"
TypeName="*"
Safe="True" />

What did I do wrong?

Hi Preston,

After reading your web.config file and dwp file, I found that Namespace
attribute of the safecontrol element has the value
"SWMED.CIS.TestLibrary".
<SafeControl Assembly="SSRTestLibrary,
Version=1.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=206b470c9c36637a"
Namespace="SWMED.CIS.TestLibrary"

So I'd suggest you can specify the full class name in the <type> node of
the dwp file:
<WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2" >
<Title>SSR List</Title>
<Description>SSR Selection List</Description>
<Assembly>SSRTestLibrary</Assembly>
<TypeName>SWMED.CIS.TestLibrary.SSRList</TypeName>

Please feel free to let me know if any question.

Hi Preston,

To my knowledge, to deploy a webpart using stsadm, you will need to have
a proper manifest.xml file in the cab file along with your dwp file and the
webpart dll. Also incorporate the namespace changes Wei-Dong suggested
above.

I already tried that but at least this tells me I was on the right track. I
finally just copied all of my code into a new project and managed to get the
web part installed. I must have missed something in the original project but
I have no dea what it was.

Thanks,

pjp
