The auto user only has access to this one space.\n\nOn every place where you want this page, you use an include page macro to \"symlink\" the page in from the autoupdated pages space.

They both try and listen on the same TCP socket, so one of them crashes with an error.\n\nCheck your task manager on the Confluence server and look for multiple instances of \"SimpleSoapProxy.exe\". If there is more than one, manually kill both process and then disable and re-enable the SharePoint Connector plugin in Confluence. This should get the plugin's external process management back in sync.\n\nIf there is only one (or none) SimpleSoapProxy.exe running, check to make sure that something else isn't listening on the same port used by the proxy:\n\nFrom a command prompt, run command \"netstat -a\" and look for entries in the list that have a local address listening on \"0.0.0.0:56000\". If there is something listening on this port, you will need to update the SharePoint Connector to use a different port for the proxy. You can do this by accessing the admin page (<http://your-confluence-server/admin/sharepoint-admin/proxy-admin.action>) and changing the \"Listen Port\" value.\n\nAlso, make sure you have the .NET Framework 2.0 installed on your Confluence server. :-)\n", "comments": null }, { "author": "Padmashri Ragavendaran", "body": "Hi,\n\nThanks a lot for your suggestions.\n\nI checked for the simplesoapproxy.exe from task manager.
