Hi All

This question come from our DBA team and I hope to find some answers to it.

Periodically,  we install new SharePoint patches whether they are cumulate update or security patches on our SharePoint servers.

To have a proactive and capable way to roll back in case of unexpected critical issues arise after the installation,  we always do a full backup of all SharePoint databases (config DB, SA DBs,  Content DBs, etc..). 
This work well until now that our SharePoint content have growth tremendously and the total backup spaces of all the databases have reach to several Terabytes.  

The full backup now take  more than ten hours so I would think in the case if roll back is needed, the same amount of time will take to restore.   so if using the full backup for roll back,  the system will be down for a whole day even.

The question are:

• Do we have to backup all SharePoint databases before install new SharePoint patches?
• Can we backup just the databases that the installed patches have changed?
• How do we know which database to backup?
• For a SharePoint update patch,  how do we know which database will be updated by this patch?

Any advice or comment to help me answer these question will be really helpful.

Thanks

Hi,

For a client we have to design application with 2 factor authentication on SharePoint 2013.

I have few questions here:-

1.      Is 2 factor authentication is possible only with SharePoint 2013 cloud or it is possible even with SharePoint 2013 on-premise also?
2.      Client is already using RSA secure ID for other application (Non SharePoint).
   1.       IS RSA dependable for SharePoint application also?
   2.      What other tokens working well with SharePoint 2013?
3.      What are the steps to design 2 factor authentications in SharePoint 2013?

Pl reply only if you have real life experience. Don’t share link. It is urgent.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Hello,

I have added some external users from outside my company as members of certain sharepoint sites.  However, they are reporting that they are still unable to access these sites.  Any ideas why?  Are there certain permissions I need to grant to these users in order for them to be able to access the SharePoint site?

Thanks!

Hello all,

I'm working on SharePoint 2013 Enterprise since 3 months now.

But I encounter an BIG issue now (and I don't know why).

When I load the Central Administration page, I've a lot of GETs (in 401 unauthorized):

/_layouts/15/images/menudark.gif 401 (Unauthorized)

...Then my central administration looks like broken (no css, all js is gone, ...).

Could you please explain how to solve this?

Thank you a lot

I've added a 2013 workflow to a list but when I tried to run it, I am getting a 401 authorisation error.  I then checked the SB and WF Farm status and am getting the below errors for the Service Front End for the other servers am I not running this on.

I've then run Get-WFFarm and noted the "RunAsAccount".  I've then tried to log into the above URLs with this account and it is not accepting the credentials and I am then getting the 401 authorisation error.  I have checked the account and the password is correct.

I can't find any commands to try and restart these.  Any help?  I haven't restarted the servers at this point.

Hello Experts,

I need your urgent help, as we are planning to migrate our Windows Server 2008R2 Server to 2012R2, which hosts SharePoint 2013.

As per the information 2012R2 is the max SharePoint 2013 can support upto. We are initiating it in DEV, QA and then move on to PROD env. Database is in cluster and is shared.

Also Nintex (all its wsp's) and other customized wsp needs to be installed. 

Can anyone please help in detailed steps which I should take to minimize the impact and downtime.

Regards...

Hello,

I manage several single-server- and small-scale-Sharepoint Farms. They are all within the same domain/forest and managed the same way.

One of them has developed an issue two weeks ago - the Sharepoint Search Host Controller service has stopped working all of a sudden. This has happened on one Sharepoint farm only - all others (about a dozen) are working absolutely fine. The service cannot be started again. When you try, you get the error message: "Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly".

The error message in the Event Viewer says the following:

Event ID 1000:

Faulting application name: hostcontrollerservice.exe, version: 15.0.4937.1000, time stamp: 0x591a9476
Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.1.7601.24535, time stamp: 0x5dc1e835
Exception code: 0xe0434352

Faulting process id: 0x11e0

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\15.0\Search\HostController\hostcontrollerservice.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll
Report Id: 285e481a-2011-11ea-bf83-901b0e109035

Event ID 1026:

The Sharepoint log unfortunately doesn't go much beyond that. The key phrase that is being repeated is this:

Exception Info: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException

Unfortunately I have no idea what this means or what I could do. The OS-admins tell me that there were no changes on the server or with Group Policies/Local Policies/anything else.

What I have tried so far:

- Rebooting (obviously)

- The Sharepoint Wizard

- Using another account to start the service (up to farm account or Local System)

- Installing the latest patches (in the hopes that this was a product error)

- A repair installation of Sharepoint from the Control Panel

Nothing works and I am a bit lost. This is a production system, so "reinstalling from scratch" isn't really an option I can suggest lightly. The broken service causes the Search and the connected Office Online Server (WOPI) to fail.

The system is a Windows Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2012, Sharepoint Server 2013 SP1 with the October 2019 CU. And yes, I know that Windows Server 2008 R2 is almost out of support.  :)

If anyone has any ideas...

Hello all,

environment :

SharePoint 2013 sp1 farm with a WFE server and a different APP server based on 2008r2 OS. Let's call those servers WFE1 and APP1

I added two extra servers to the farm based on 2012r2 without issues. Let's call those APP2 and WFE2.

I want to get rid of APP1 and keep only APP2.

The problem is that in the list of "services on server" of APP2, I do not see the following service :

SQL Server Reporting Services Service

I need to migrate this service, but the only document I found was : 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/tools/sample-reporting-services-rs-exe-script-to-copy-content-between-report-servers?view=sql-server-2016

But it does not help.

Any idea ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

any idea how to fix it?

This may be a Microsoft Tech Support call, but, giving it a shot here first.

Env: SharePoint 2013 on premise, 2 server farm (SP and DB). Not fully patched and updated (it's on the list to do). 5 Web Apps (including central admin and mysites). Multiple sites and site collections, lists, libraries.

About a week ago (from 9/10/19) I started getting calls about workflows failing "Failed on Start" "Workflow was canceled by System Account." Found lots of talk about workflows failing just like mine. Found this from developer support:

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/sharepointdevelopersupport/2015/03/11/failed-on-start-in-spd-workflow/

Thought okay, I'll check the hidden library. The link on how to nav to the library (kb/2273439) returns 404, eventually found this article about the hidden workflow library: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/sposupport/2017/10/13/troubleshooting-the-sharepoint-2013-workflow-hidden-library/

Give it a go, looking for the GUID of wfsvc and the url returns "List 'wfsvc' does not exist at the site..." Thinking this can't be good, I test against another of my web apps and it returns the expected information. Uh oh. So I get on PowerShell, grab the web (SP-Web), grab the lists, search for the list named 'wfsvc' and it doesn't show in the web app with the failing workflows. My PowerShell does show the list on the web app where workflows are working.

Poke around a bit more and find mention of running SQL on the dbs to do something with wfsvc - alarm bells go off - not messing with the tables via SQL. But then I'm thinking I can just query and see if it's in there, so I do a quick Select on dbo.AllLists looking for tp_title = 'wfsvc'. I find it in the db for the web app that is working fine, but, the web app where the workflows aren't launching there's no joy on the query, no rows returned. So now I know, close SQL and sigh in relief that I didn't trash the dbs.

But, now what? wfsvc seems to be gone from the web app. I tried turning off all the Workflow stuff in Site Collection Features then turning it back on, thinking that might recreate the list. I ran PSCONFIGUI on the server and let it run through what it wanted to run through (a repair cycle as I recall) and that ran through to completion. Maybe I didn't turn off enough stuff - Workflows, Three-state workflow, SharePoint 2007 Workflows (were never turned on!), Publishing Approval Workflow (wasn't turned on), Disposition Approval Workflow. Is there something in Central Admin to toggle? I don't see anything there except the Workflow Service Application, I don't see any controls under Service Apps for it, and I don't want to endanger the other web apps.

Thanks all,

Steven
