I post here ALOT! And yet I am here again.

Does SharePoint allow read-only permissions to a document library but allow users to edit or upload to a particular folder?

Here's my scenario....

I have a few AD groups in SP. They need read only permissions to a document library. There will be master docs in the main library that groups will need access to, but not be able to make changes or upload any docs in the library. However, these groups should be able to uploads docs in their department folders only and no one else's department folder.

I've done a few things but ran into some issues.

1. Broke the document library inheritance from site.

2. Gave document library read permissions

3. For each department folder, I selected and "Share" and granted edit permission to the respective department allowing them access to upload.

Here's my problem. After doing this, users were able to upload docs in their department folder but when they click save, they receive a message, "Sorry, you don't have access to this page." When they click out the message, the document upload anyway.

Is there an easier way to accomplish this? I am also looking into creating a custom permission level, but I think I will have the same issue. How can groups contribute to their folders only but still have read only rights to top level document library?

EX of Doc Library

Accounting folder (only Accounting can contribute but Sales and HR can view)
Sales folder (only Sales can contribute but Accounting and HR can view)
Human Resources folder (only HR can contribute but Accounting and Sales can view)
Exel doc (Accouting Sales and HR view only)
Word doc (Accounting Sales and HR view only)

Hello,

Can anyone tell if the windows server 2008 R2 server level language pack is the prerequisite for the sharepoint 2010 language pack? As far I know it NOT but just want to confirm.

Thanks,

Multiple users at random times are getting unable to save errors on workbooks. The error in the log is "Unable to refresh lock on the following workbook".

Any ideas. I can't find any documentation for troubleshooting Office Web App Server.

I use AD RMS to protect SharePoint documents:

• SharePoint Foundation 2013
• Active Directory Rights Management Service Client 2.1
• Windows Server 2012 AD RMS Service

Office documents work well, but pdf documents fails.
Event log error as follows:

• Event ID: 5042 - Information Rights Management (IRM): There is a protector for file type pdf, but the protector failed to initialize.
• Event ID: 5032 - Information Rights Management (IRM): Protector {FC93F6CC-D367-4FC9-B3F6-E0933A24A8C8} threw an exception during a call to its HrInit() function.
  Protector: {FC93F6CC-D367-4FC9-B3F6-E0933A24A8C8}
  HrInit() initializes a protector's commonly used data.

Best regards,

Hi

I have a site collection based on a Team Site template which has now grown out of all recognition.

There is now about half a million documents in it and I think it is time for a change of site collection template to the document centre.  I then can have access to the content organiser.

How can I move half a million documents between the two site collections bearing in mind the space this will require during copying.

Anybody any ideas ?

Thanks

Hi team,

       When I publish the sharpoint desinger 2013 workflow in sharepoint, I am getting below error.

       System.InvalidOperationException: Operation failed with error Microsoft.Workflow.Client.ScopeNotFoundException: Scope '/SharePoint/default' was not found.  HTTP headers received from the server - ActivityId: 914f5813-7647-407e-8326-65b6cf231ee9.

Client ActivityId : a5e88c9c-e557-b0dc-92e2-8b4e1e0c8657. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

   at Microsoft.Workflo

I have ran  

Register-SPWorkflowService -SPSite "http://machinename:8080" -WorkflowHostUri "http://machinename:12293" -AllowOAuthHttp,

 it is 

Register-SPWorkflowService : Failed to register because the farm or partition is already registered with a workflow
service

Please let me know, where I do the mistake regarding the workflow manager.

I have removed the current computer from the farm, deleted the database, create new farm with new database, still getting the same error when publish the workflow in the Sharepoint designer 2013. getting the  same error.

I am upgrading the server from 2010 to 2013 and now I am getting a list of errors over and over again.  Here is the list of errors that I am receiving.

I am getting the following error every minute.

i have been trying to configure workflow manager but each time I end up with same issue. I have tried configuration both through PowerShell command and configuration wizard but same issue..... have already verified these requirements many time now :(

Could not successfully create management Service Bus entity 'WF_Management/WFTOPIC'

The token provider service was not avaliable when obtaining a token for
 'https://srspdevsara.secp.gov.pk:9355/WorkflowDefaultNamespace/$STS/Windows/'..

please help me this configuration problem is already a question mark in our project plan

I understand that the approval workflow template that comes with SharePoint 2013 is the SharePoint 2010-based workflow. This article misleads people: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/all-about-approval-workflows-HA102771433.aspx?CTT=1 as it states:

Select the Approval – SharePoint 2013 template.

 Note    If the Approval – SharePoint 2013 template doesn’t appear in the list, contact your SharePoint administrator to find out about having it activated for your site collection or workspace.

It would be beneficial (to those of us using your documentation) to fix this so it is accurate.

Thank you,

Deborah

I have followed this post on Setting up Hybrid search of Office 365 from Sharepoint On premise:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/wbaer/archive/2014/03/24/one-way-outbound-hybrid-search-step-by-step-and-onedrive-for-business.aspx#comments

As well as tested all of the validation steps in the following Technet Article on setting up Identity Management.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn197169(v=office.15).aspx

However the last validation step in each is to test the Result Source and I get the following error:

Web error: System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled. ---> Microsoft.SharePoint.IdentityModel.OAuth2.SPOAuth2ErrorResponseException: [invalid_client] ACS50027: JWT token is invalid.
Trace ID: 375a7faa-be03-441e-be21-5b29

I am really scratching my head here and My Google Foo is coming up empty on any variation of that error.

Hi All,

  We have a list view which uses [Me] filter to show the user their record on a specific page. All the migration everything was migrated successfully. But this particular page doesn't seem to work. The record is physically there on the list but not on the view. But if we edit the record and delete the user in the people picker field and then add it again it works. 

We have quite a lot of pages where we use this [Me]. Hardly impossible to do it on every single record. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Thanks,

I accidentally deleted the Rating (0-5) column from my site collection. I need to get it back. I found this thread about how to do it in SharePoint 2010 (although I'm not sure that problem was actualy solved).

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/0b7e75f8-c2ed-465c-8d90-be399616aba6/how-to-create-rating-05-column-under-ratings-group?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious

Also I don't have access to the PowerShell, so if there was another way that I could do it that would be great. Any ideas?

We just upgraded our Sharepoint 2013 to SP1, it was up-to-date sans SP1, we then upgraded the server from 2012 to 2012 R2. AFter the upgrade I kept getting 500 errors when I tried to access the site. I scoured the net and tried several different things, but nothing seemed to get the job done or it did not apply to my problem. I cam across one article that said yI should run SHarepoint Products Configuration Wizard again. Blindly frustrated I went ahead and did just that. Not only did it not solve my problem , but it started my Sharepoint install from scratch, doh!  I have a backup containing all of my content so I figured no problem right, and went ahead and did a restore, but there were quite a few errors, the log is below. Interestingly, I found the fix to my problem immediately after this and was also able to repair the http 500 error. I have included the fix for the http 500 error at the very bottom for those that come across this post. Once that was fixed I checked the site and it appears to all be there, but I am really concerned there may be problems in the future.

So, my question is this. Can you restore a pr-SP1 2013 backup to a SP1 2013 Sharepoint server? If yes, what is the procedure? If no, how should I proceed from here? The log is below for reference. Sorry for the length. Thank you for any assistance. I have removed any personalized information.

Resolution FOR HTTP 500 error
The below PowerShell commands re-provisions all the SharePoint Web Services.

Don’t worry about losing any data/applications on SharePoint, all will remain intact.

Run the following commands one by one on SharePoint PowerShell:

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell line in the SharePoint.ps1 $h = Get-SPServiceHostconfig
$h.Provision()
$services = Get-SPServiceApplication
foreach ($service in $services) { $service.provision(); write-host $service.name}

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...

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

Hi all, I would really appreciate if someone could help me with this. I have a publishing site collection and two variations sites, i.e:

• http://server/sites/publishing
• http://server/sites/publishing/es-cr
• http://server/sites/publishing/en-us

The source variation sites is http://server/sites/publishing/es-cr. Then I have a Managed Navigation term set in spanish and translated to english, so the managed navigation service is set up to use spanish language as default but also work with english, i.e:

• Spanish term: Personas
• English term: People

To use this managed navigation in my variation site, I set my root site (publishing) to use the termset as global navigation, and then set that my variations site use the same navigation as parent site, the problem is that, even though I'm on english variation site, the managed navigation language keeps showing in spanish.

I decided to do another test, and this time instead of using the navigation termset in the top level site, I use it in the source variation site (http://server/sites/publishing/es-cr) but now, english variation site doesn't show any navigation, so I went to the navigation settings and now, it shows me one more group, which is not available in the Managed Navigation Service configuration through CA, storing a termset in english but without any terms.

Basically what I want to achieve is to use the same termset in my variation sites with their respective language.

Thanks in advance.

After installing and configuring Workflow Manager on SharePoint 2013 farm I am able to create workflows in SP Designer in 2013 and publish them on the server with no errors. New workflows do show up in the application, but will not run. I found the indication in ULS that something went wrong 

Workflow revision number mismatch! Current workflow store revision is 13 and workflow host scope has revision 0

I am trying to remove a user from a SharePoint Group using PowerShell.

I can see the user in the Site Collection as part of the SharePoint Group, however, when I attempt to run the script, I get an error message stating "Can not find the user with ID: 10"

Below is the PowerShell script that I am using:

$url = "https://sharepointdev.spfarm.spcorp.com/sites/desitecoll"
$userName = "spfarm\sp2013_svc"
#$userName = "spfarm\spprofileimport";
$site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url) 
$web = $site.OpenWeb() 
$siteGroups = $web.SiteGroups;

Clear-Host

$mySiteGroups = @(); 
foreach($group in $siteGroups) 
{ 
	Write-Host $group
	$mySiteGroups += $group;
}#foreach



$members = $web.SiteGroups[$mySiteGroups[0]];
$owners = $web.SiteGroups[$mySiteGroups[1]];
$visitors = $web.SiteGroups[$mySiteGroups[2]];

#Remove the user from the specified SharePoint Group
$spUser = Get-SPUser -Identity $userName -Web $url
Write-Host $spUser.ID

Remove-SPUser -Identity $spUser -Web $url -Group $owners
$web.Update();
$web.Dispose();


Write-Host "User " $userName   "removed from " $owners

I am hoping for a work around to this as its driving me, and my users, mad.

We have a SharePoint 2013 deployment, with Isolated Apps setup. When a user within the domain accesses SharePoint, it automatically logs in and displays any and all apps without issue.

When a user logs in from Home, or from any other network, they are prompted to login once for the site (which is expected) and once for each app on the page they are logging into. Once password is entered for each prompt, it works fine, but i still have staff complaining that they need to login multiple times.

My SharePoint runs on domain.com and my isolated apps run on domainapps.com. 

Is it possible to stop this and force the app to take its permission from the logged in SharePoint user?

Thanks in advance
