How to get a list of alerts on MOSS 07

Question

I need help getting a list of alerts on a MOSS 07 server.

I'm trying to use STSADM.

I saw the getproperty command for STSADM so I tried.

STSADM -o getproperty -pv alerts-enabled -url http://intranet/

All it did was throw an error.

so it tried

STSADM -o getproperty -url http://intranet/

And found a list of property values.

I'm not sure what I should do to get a list of current alerts in the site collection.

You can use the pwoershell to get the alerts for a site collection.

1. First you make sure powershell is properly configured.

2. Now run the below script and you will get it.

   Add-PSSnapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell

   $site = Get-SPSite "http://dlvrn2010.com/sites/spalerts/                    
   $alertResultsCollection = @()
   
   foreach ($web in $site.AllWebs) {  
   
         foreach ($alert in $web.Alerts){
   
         $alertURL = $web.URL + "/" + $alert.ListUrl
   
          $alertResult = New-Object PSObject
   
     $alertResult | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -name "List URL" -value $alertURL
   
      $alertResult | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -name "Alert Title" -value alert.Title
   
      $alertResult | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -name "Alert Type" -value $alert.AlertType
   
      $alertResult | Add-Member -type NoteProperty -name "Subscribed User" -value $alert.User
         $alertResultsCollection += $alertResult
   
        }
   
     }
   
     $site.Dispose()
    $alertResultsCollection
   

   Export to CSV

   $alertResultsCollection | Export-CSV "Alerts.csv"

you can use the script from this [codeplex solution][3] also check this User on SharePoint 2007 getting alert that was/is not set up
