Microsoft has done a lot within the last few years in several of their products to increase security and at the same time maintaining a stable environment. This also is true for SharePoint 2010 expected to be released in the first quarter of 2010: The developers have added what’s called a ‘Sandbox’ so that SharePoint Web Parts cannot interfere with the rest of the SharePoint environment.
Say a section of your Intranet is experimental only (but you want to run in production environment) or if you are an administrator and you want to make sure that there is no connection between that section and other parts of the Intranet, you can have that section (e.g., a Web Part) run in its own little universe, called a Sandbox.
Corey Roth gives us a straight forward report of his troubles in getting the sandbox to work in the first place and what he did to fix the problems. Thanks Corey.
