An error occurred during the "Generate Key" process. Please try again or contact your administrator.

Greetings,

I'm unable to generate a new key in the Secure Store Service Application (SSSA). I haven't faced this issue in my SharePoint 2010 farm.

I have a SA created for this service application, configured it as a managed account in CA and used it to setup the SSS. I am logged into the CA as a farm admin while I'm attempting to generate the new key. I have tried the following which haven't worked for me.

1) Added the sa as a farmadmin account and the SSSA managed account as local admins to both the application server and the database server.

2) Added the sa account to the administrators group of the SSSA and given it full control

3) Given the sa account all access to the SSSA database on the SQL server.

The error I am getting is 'An error occurred during the "Generate Key" process. Please try again or contact your administrator. '. In the event viewer I see the following error

'The Secure Store Service application Secure Store Service Application is not accessible. The full exception text is: User does not have permission to perform the operation.'

I have the August CU installed on this server. This is the first time I am trying to setup this manage application on a SharePoint 2013 environment using the same steps that have worked successfully in the SharePoint 2010 environment. I am open to ideas and suggestions. Thanks in advance.

SharePoint Labels not applying correct font size.

Hi, 

i Have a client where we are using SharePoint 2013 Labels to insert the Document Version number to the document footer.

i Have set the font size to 8 on the labels under document settings but in the document it gets added as a 11 and grayed out so you cant edit it.

This is a issue for the client.

Kerberos authentication prompting for credentials in Sharepoint 2013

Hello all,

I think I’m a bit confused on what I should expect out of Kerberos and sharepoint.

Following the steps located in http://blog.blksthl.com/2012/09/26/the-first-kerberos-guide-for-sharepoint-2013-technicians/ , I’ve setup Kerberos in my Sharepoint 2013 environment. My hope was that configuring kerberos authentication would solve the issue of users being prompted for credentials when they access sharepoint. I know that one way to address this problem is to tweak the IE settings by adding the site to the local intranet or trusted zones, but am I wrong in thinking that Kerberos should also authenticate the user on to the site? Here’s my situation:

Previously, I had our sharepoint URL in the trusted zone and had IE set to pass my credentials through, and that worked. After configuring Kerberos, I can see the tickets on my system using klist and the security log on our web front-end shows that I authenticated using Kerberos.

However, if I then remove the sharepoint URL from the trusted zone in IE, I still get prompted for credentials. If I cancel the credential prompt, I get a 401 error and the security log on the server shows a NTLM login attempt.

As soon as I put the URL back in the trusted zone, I can access the site and the server log shows a Kerberos authentication.

I’m I wrong in thinking that if Kerberos was working properly then I shouldn't need to have the URL in the trusted zone?

Thanks

Variations and Custom Web Parts

Hello, I'm trying to deploy variations sites in my Publishing site collection and come up with this two scenarios:

First scenario, I have a site collection http://server/sites/publishing, then I create my variation labels and sites and the propagation of the objects works great, leaving my site as http://server/sites/publishing/en-us. Everything good with this scernario and I also can acces my variations sites from the Variation Labels section in the site settings.

I deleted my variation levels and sites, and site collection for this second scenario, then created again the site collection.

Second scenario, I have a site collection http://server/sites/publishing only this time, I added a custom web part to the default page of the site collection, then I try to create my first variation label and here throws an error in the variations logs:

The Variations Create Hierarchies job failed with the following error message: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

In spite of that error, the variation site is created, but it is not accessible from the Variation Labels section, instead, I have to access it directly from its URL, showing a message on the site saying that it has been set to read only and have been blocked, so I can not make any changes in the site.

Is this normal behavior? Or are there any configuration I'm missing?

Thanks in advance.

Unable to decline access request with "Failed to decline request" error

Hi

I setup Access Request for some of the sites and all things seem to work properly,  except for one site that for some reason, I cannot decline any Access Request at all.  When I tried to decline, i got an error"Failed to decline request".  but I can Approve with no problem so don't look like permission is the problem as I have Site Collection Administration and Full Control permission to this site.

As this the only site that I have this problem and I don't see any different settings from the others sites as the settings are simple to miss anything.  I just don't know how to troubleshoot it beside checking the permission and email address.

Anyone have experience this or have any advice,  please share

Thanks

PowerPivot installation and migration

SP 2013 enterprise. 1 web server + 1 app server +  db server. SQL Server 2012. 

I am installing PowerPivot. Once I installed PowerPivot, I opened the PowerPivot config tool and started creating the service app. And I get the following error @ Add Farm Solution stage:

Failure while running action: Add Farm Solution 

The solution can not be deployed. The feature 'f8c51e81-0b46-4535-a3d5-244f63e1cab9' uses the directory "PowerPivotFarm" in the solution. However, it is currently installed in the farm to the directory "PowerPivot". 

Please note that I am also trying to upgrade our existing SP 2010 PowerPivot DB to this new environment. So I have provided the SP 2010 DB here.  

When I installed all wsps from the SP 2010 server to the SP 2013 server, I have installed couple of PowerPivot wsps. I have retracted and removed these wsps from the farm. before trying this step. 

Here is the error message image:

RBS Migrate

I would like to ask before this is done, will running the PowerShell command to migrate existing content to RBS ( $rbs.Migrate() ) cause the data in the source content database to become locked? I need to know if any site collections/webs/files/etc will get put into read only while this transaction is running.

Thank you

Page related help wizard

Hi there,

what I'm trying to achieve in SP2013 is the following:

I want to provide an icon (Question mark e.g.) on each page. But when the icon is clicked, a frame opens showing a wizard that explains the possible actions on that page. Let me explain with an example:

On the page User Management, when the user clicks on the question mark, he gets the following possibilities:

1. reset password

2. edit user

3. remove user

4. rename user

And depending on the choice of the user, a wizard would guide him/her through the steps required to perform the action.

On a different page, e.g. Email, the possible actions would be Compose new email, ...

What is the best approach to achieve this goal?

thanks !

The Following URL is not valid infopath 2013

Hi,

Infopath 2013 Publishing error - The following URL is not valid.

When we try to publish a infopath 2013 form to a web application with a root site collection , we get the following error.

" The following URL is not valid."

Things tried :

We had tried all the solutions provided in google reuslts for the error search.

  • Checked if it has a root site collection.
  • stopped and started then "System Event Notifcation" service
  • Added the verb entry in the http Handler tag
  • added a host entry for the URL.

the solution i saw on the net was to allow all verbs on iis or rather still add <remove verb="*" path="*.asmx"/> to httphandlers on the web config.

please how do i resolve this as none of this worked for me

SharePoint 2013

Hi,

Running on SharePoint 2013 three farm, App, web and database.  It's on a VM, changed accounts on the application pool however that should not matter, but the access when I click on Edit Page is not showing up, it gives me the Forbidden 403 error page. Any ideas on what security issue this is?  Prior to that error message, it gave me a SharePoint Maintainence webpart error page, and I removed the web parts.

Any ideas, bin access, SQL server access?

Thanks,

I have a document library that only shows 30 documents then you have to go to the next page of the doc library to see the next 30 documents and so on. Can I change this so all documents are displayed on the one page?

Here's a screenshot of what it currently looks like:

Sharepoint 2013 publishing page

Hi there, we are migrating SharePoint 2007 environment to SharePoint 2013 environment.Copying databases first to SharePoint 2010 and everything works well.As we continue the upgrade by copying the databases to SharePoint 2013 environment there is problems with editing top level site collection homepages. The site collection and site publishing feature is enabled.The problem occurs in a site collection landing page.We are able to edit the page, but check in / save / or publish comes with an error message that another user has edited a page. This user edited page in the SharePoint 2007 environment.If we make a new landing page we can publish it, but if we edit it we can't check in / save  or publish it. The error appears again that another user has edited that page.Now this user is the user who made the new page. If we deactive the publishing feature we can edit and save those pages. If we then active the feature again the problems are back. What makes this really weird is that everything work just fine in site collections which are under these problematic site collections. For example:

http://sitename not working

http://sitename/1 not working

http://sitename/1/1 working

http://sitename/2 not working

http://sitename/2/1 working

and so on...

Listed below is one of the ULS logs error message:

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The file Pages/test.aspx has been modified by Domain\Username on 28 Feb 2014 11:04:55 +0200.    at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequestInternalClass.AddOrUpdateItem(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, Boolean bAdd, Boolean bSystemUpdate, Boolean bPreserveItemVersion, Boolean bPreserveItemUIVersion, Boolean bUpdateNoVersion, Int32& plID, String& pbstrGuid, Guid pbstrNewDocId, Boolean bHasNewDocId, String bstrVersion, Object& pvarAttachmentNames, Object& pvarAttachmentContents, Object& pvarProperties, Boolean bCheckOut, Boolean bCheckin, Boolean bUnRestrictedUpdateInProgress, Boolean bMigration, Boolean bPublish, String bstrFileName, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pListDataValidationCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pRestrictInsertCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pUniqueFieldCallback)     at Microsoft.SharePoint.Library.SPRequest.AddOrUpdateItem(String bstrUrl, String bstrListName, Boolean bAdd, Boolean bSystemUpdate, Boolean bPreserveItemVersion, Boolean bPreserveItemUIVersion, Boolean bUpdateNoVersion, Int32& plID, String& pbstrGuid, Guid pbstrNewDocId, Boolean bHasNewDocId, String bstrVersion, Object& pvarAttachmentNames, Object& pvarAttachmentContents, Object& pvarProperties, Boolean bCheckOut, Boolean bCheckin, Boolean bUnRestrictedUpdateInProgress, Boolean bMigration, Boolean bPublish, String bstrFileName, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pListDataValidationCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pRestrictInsertCallback, ISP2DSafeArrayWriter pUniqueFieldCallback)
