Go to Central Administration | Application Management | Web Application General Settings and under 'Alerts' make sure the 'Alerts on this server are:' is set to 'On'

Hi Costas - got stuck with me again then! Sorry!

I have set myself up as to receive alerts in a folder, which isn't working.

The Service is running and set to run as NetworkService, as is the Application Pool

Alerts on WSS 3.0 should work without any issues in a parallel install on SBS 2003.

Did the users select the 'Alert me' option, under 'Actions' in the Document Library that they want to enable alerts? Is the 'Windows SharePoint Services Timer' services running? Is the account that the timer service runs under, the same as the account that the 'SharePoint Central Administration v3' application pool runs under?

I have WSS3 installed alongside WSS2 on SBS2003.

I can't see that the User Alerts are working. Should they with this installation, and if so, can someone please help me to troubleshoot?

Thanks

Neil
