I am looking for a temporary IT Technician for 3 months to replace a member of staff who left our school very recently. If you have knowledge in Server2008, Exchange2010, VMWare, Citrix Desktop, Windows7 and other school specific applications and are interested, please send your CV to [email protected]. The temporary position could lead to a permanent position for the right person. See the attached person spec. We need someone to start as soon as possible and we are looking to interview Monday 16th June or very soon thereafter. The salary is comparable to other schools in the area - £21,000 pa. The Green School is an all girls Church of England School although we accept staff from any or no faiths. The Green School - Home IT Technician Person Specification.docx

Hi all, We are using roaming profiles on windows 7 and are seeing more and more issues with student profiles. Students will work for a whole lesson and when it comes to saving they are sometimes prompted with a message "Word cannot open or save this file because the path name is too long", however the path they are saving is on the root of their documents.. We have been working around this by copying and pasting the work remotely and saving it for them in their areas, then doing a local and server profile reset which will fix the issue for the student. I have attached an image below of an example. We have around 860 students and this is happening approx 2 times a day, sometimes with the message "Word could not create the work file. Check the temp environment variable". We've noticed that this one happens regularly if students or staff move computers each time they login, and it created a separate local profile in the format username.domain. If anyone that has experienced the same issues could comment that would be great.

We are having a sporadic issue with Office 2016. We have a small IT Suite created for developing Windows 10 for site deployment later this year. In addition it has Office 2016 installed as well as our default AV Sophos. The room works perfectly but at random times of the day with random users we have issues with Office 2016 after the user saves the document and logs off. Basically the file "disappears" and is replaced by a numbered.tmp file. In some cases launching Office and open with "all files" selected or renaming the extension fixes this issue but in others the work is lost. There is no consistent behaviour or pattern so we cannot pinpoint exactly what is causes this! However, after a variety of online searches we keep seeing this same problem reported and the antivirus being the potential culprit? Saying they have resolved this by excluding the folder, but for obvious reason we don't want to exclude the home directories. Does anyone here have any thoughts or ideas. Thank you advance.
