WSS Recover for Sharepoint 2003
Download
now (1.6 Kb; GPL licensed)



I can see that a lot of people (like me) have used SharePoint
Services (SPS) with the MSDE and have hosed the system. Then
they need to recover, or extract, the documents that are shared
in the Shared Documents on SharePoint. Aha! If you still have
MSDE database files, I can help. Witness the wss-recover.asp
file, version 0.1.

Download the .zip, and unzip it into the root directory of
your IIS webserver. For most folks, this is C:\inetpub\wwwroot.
Anyway, once unzipped, simply launch a handy browser and go
to http://servername/wss-recover.asp. The script will prompt
with default settings, and most people should be able to just
click through and get a list of their files. If you've changed
database names or what not, it'll be trickier for you.

Anyway, hope this helps someone.
