Hello,

I see 5 "Microsoft SharePoint Search Component" running processes on my SharePoint 2013 server.  SharePoint 2013 is installed, Exchange is not installed.  Do you know why there are 5 noderunner.exe processes running.  They are taking up resources on the server.

Thanks,

Paul

I am trying to install the EWS Managed Api package per instructions found here:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj552524(v=office.15).aspx

Using this command:

msiexec /i EwsManagedApi.msi addlocal="ExchangeWebServicesApi_Feature,ExchangeWebServicesApi_Gac"

When I run the Check-SiteMailboxConfig.ps1 script it returns that is is unable to find EWS in the GAC. 

I Checked in c:\windows\assembly and all the sub directories and see no indication that the .dll was installed to the GAC.

I have tried to reinstall the package several times and I am still getting the same results. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Adrian

hi experts...

i was using sharepoint 2013 quite well...today i am having an error HTTP 404.

Initially My AD server was shutdown and i was using the SP as normal then i started my AD Server and browsed my SPSite then i got that error HTTP 404 Not Found.However i can access Central Administration.

i visited event viewer and following are the errors that i have seen...kindly guide me regarding.

i have followed various solutions on the net but nothing worked for me. Solutions include 1)IIS Reseting 2)Resetting Application Pools 3)all services are running 4)adding account in the site in IIS

Hi there,

I have a some servers that host two different SharePoint Farms and currently one is connected to an OWA server - http://blogs.technet.com/b/justin_gao/archive/2013/06/30/configuring-office-web-apps-server-communication-using-https.aspx

I want my second farm to use OWA too and was wondering if it is possible to use the same OWA server for this?  So, can I create two Office Web App Farms on the same server?

Hi, Thanks in advance.

I have newly created a SP2013 farm, but experience "create new document" problem.

Steps I setup the new far:

Install 3 tier servers- Setup new web app - Create path - Setup new Site Collections.

Search service and User Profile Service created, and both working fine.

There isn't any further customise configuration.

Local computer installed Office 2010.

On the new site Finance, I have create a document library.

I have assigned myself as site administrator, and assigned test user 1 Edit Access to the site.

Both myself and the Test user 1 can log in to the site, and upload documents without any issue.  However,

Neither of us can "create new document" on the site.

1. by go in the library, click "new document", I was giving the option of Add a document by browse network drive.  There is no option to input a document name, and create a new document.

2. By click the top left corner New Document button, the system will opens up Word application installed on local computer, and I can't save the document into Sharepoint library.

Can someone help.

Thanks

I have been working on this for the past week with no resolution.  The setup is a Windows Server 2012 R2 as the APP server, Windows Server 2012 R2 as the WFE server, Windows Server 2012 R2 as the Outlook Web Access server, Windows Server 2012 R2 as the Workflow Server and a Windows Server 2008 R2 SQL Server running SQL 2008 R2.  This is the powershell shell script that I am running for the User Profile Service:

#User Profile Service Creation

#Get Managed Account
$acct = get-spmanagedaccount "DOMAIN\SP_UserProfile"

#Create App Pool
$AppPool = New-SPServiceApplicationPool -Name "UserProfileAppPool" -Account $acct

#New Profile Service Application
$UPA = New-SPProfileServiceApplication -Name "User Profile Service Application" -ApplicationPool $AppPool -ProfileDBName "SP_ProfileDB" -ProfileSyncDBName "SP_ProfileSyncDB" -SocialDBName "SP_SocialDB"

#New Proxy
New-SPProfileServiceApplicationProxy -Name "User Profile Service Application Proxy" -ServiceApplication $upa

#Set Synchronization machine
$UPS=Get-SPServiceInstance -Server APPSVR | ? {$_.Typename -eq "User Profile Synchronization Service"}
$username = read-host "User name"
$password = read-host -assecurestring "Password"
$upa.SetSynchronizationMachine("APPSVR", $UPS.Id, $UserName, $Password)

#Start the User Profile Services up
Get-SPServiceInstance -Server APPSVR | ? {$_.Typename -eq "User Profile Service"} | Start-SPServiceInstance
$ups | Start-SPServiceInstance

One issue is the instance is residing on the WFEIIS instead of the APP server (AppSvr specificied in the script above) and I am getting this error in Event Viewer on the WFEIIS Server every 5 minutes:

Hi there,
        I have a powershell script scheduled to get data from list item and send it as email.

I do get the email but the content is empty its not picking up list data.

When i run it from powershell command it works.

I have made sure i ran it using the same credentials i use to login into the sharepoint site.

Any ideas why this is happening.....

Thanks in advance

Hello All, i want to know whether SharePoint 2013 crawl the content of any file, stored on file system?

Thanks

I have a wierd issue on a SharePoint 2013 Team site. The newsfeed section shows all the latest activity but if you leave the page untouched for exactly one minute, it refreshes and the newsfeed items dissappear from view, to be replaced with the usual error;"It's pretty quiet here. Invite more people to the site, or start a conversation."

If I manually reload the page, the items reappear, but then exactly 1 minute later they clear out again. The Site Newsfeed web part has no options for amending the Ajax settings? It's a vanilla site with no major modifications. I know the Distrubuted Cache service is all up and running as this works fine with other sites in other site collections on this web app.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Can anyone tell me this pls /

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.

when I install prerequisiteinstaller.exe in sharepoint 2013, got the below error:

Error when enabling ASP.NET v4.0.30319

Error: The tool was unable to install Application Server Role, Web Server (IIS) Role.

Last return code (-2146646015)

anyone can help this? thanks in advance.

hello,

We have almost 10000 sites in 2010 and now we are planning to move it to SP2013. Now we know that some of them came from all the way from SPS2003 to MOSS 2007 to SP2010. So questions is there a way to find out the site collection version meaning the site collection originally came from 2003 / 2007 or 2010 sharepoint? FYI all the sites UI on 2010 so UI version check wont help. Please help.

Thanks,

I have recently migrated sharepoint 2010 web applicaiton to 2013 using database attach and detach methods. 

I have few issues and just wondering they are issues or not. 

I am running in compatible mode in 2013.

1.I am not able to make a copy of any existing webs which are migrated from 2010.

I browse to site content and structure from the site actions menu.

click on a site then click on the copy or move, then a pop up box with the list of sites appears. i pick one of them and click ok.

now it goes to copy or move operation then at the end it gives me following error

User account used is the Farm account.

When I open a Word document in Sharepoint Foundation 2013 using the latest version of Firefox v.29 (by clicking on the document link), it brings up the same prompt that you get with Internet Explorer, where you select either "Open as Read-Only" or "Checkout and Edit". If I select Checkout and Edit I get the following error:

This document could not be checked out. You may not have permission to check out the document or it's already checked out or locked for editing by another user

If you then close that error message window you'll see that it did actually check out the document and if you click the link again, it will open just fine and you can then edit and save and manually check back in.

If I instead click on the ... link and then choose Edit (again in Firefox) the document opens up just fine presenting the Checkout button and everything works fine, I can checkout, edit, save and it will check it in for me.

Anyone else seeing this?

I have an external AD domain with no trust. I am trying to set up FBA with AD. This is not involving SQL server but involving the AD directly with account and populating them. SP admin before me had set it up for Novell E directory. I had opened another thread regarding this with some info but since that thread has been marked as answered i am opening this new one.

The last thread is here:http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/43f2b263-d8de-4d2f-8d41-82e919c9377f/can-we-have-more-than-1-memebrship-provider-in-sts-token-service?forum=sharepointadmin

I am following the steps defined in the following article: http://mirzafarhan.wordpress.com/2014/02/07/sharepoint-2013-configuring-claim-based-authentication-for-use-with-active-directory-ldap/

External domain: ext.oma.edu

User inputs following while registering: First Name , Last name and email id. User gets user name and password.

My code for STS

Is everything i am doing correct. Two questions: What do i pass for CN? Is it plain user or connectionusername admin?

Also do i create new <system.web> section to add this or i use the existing section where another fba has been configured? As soon as i add this another fba stops functioning? Please provide me with some idea.
