Error when running Register-SPAppPrincipal

Problem
You get the error, "Cannot find an SPWeb object with Id or Url", when trying to get the RootWeb of the SPSite object when you register a new app with the Register-SPAppPrincipal PowerShell cmdl.
Register-SPAppPrincipal -NameIdentifier $appPrincipalIdentifier -Site $site.RootWeb -DisplayName 'ProviderHostedApp'

The cause could be
The user who is running the script is NOT a farm administrator.

Fix the problem
Add the user to the farm administrator group

The form cannot be submitted because of an error

Problem I created a reusable approval workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010. I initiated the workflow. Then when I filled in the Assigned To field I got an error pop up saying: "The form cannot be submitted because of an error". Solution Uninstall the KB2553322 for SharePoint Designer. I didn't uninstall KB2553322 for Microsoft Office. Restart SharePoint Designer. Recreate the workflow.

Problem installing service pack 1 for SharePoint Foundation 2010

I have a SharePoint farm with one application server, two WFE servers and one db server. When I ran the configuration wizard after I installed service pack 1 on the application server and the WFE servers I got an error that said that the service pack was missing on the WFE servers. Solution: Open your powershell editor and execute the following command on the WFE servers. Get-SPProduct –local Then run the configuration wizard again.
