Hi everyoe,

In our farm we have 3 servers (2wfe, 1 app) and we are using request management service to load balance those 2 wfe's. everything was working fine until we noticed that InfoPath form libraries gives us error while publishin a form template or trying to open new form to save. If we look into the logs we saw that request management changes to form libraries address to url with server name (from http://www.sitename.com/libraryname/..... tohttp://servername/libraryname/....)

Anyone knows anything about this problem? Are we missing some configuration in request management or InfoPath settings? Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Mustafa Yılmaz

Hello,

I'm testing an upgrade to SharePoint 2013 on an environment running on 2012 R2, with the fixed SP1 and April 2014 Cumulative Update. My issue is that, in this farm, I cannot convert any of my classic databases to claims. I run into the following error for every single account that convert-spwebapplication tries to convert:

SPWebApplication '41cdd631-b97d-4d1e-ad46-69d5edf33564', SPContentDatabase '376ece3b-0e55-4020-91a5-cd8a1fc980b5', SPSite 'a8b2c432-e7d4-4684-915a-8e22b744ea32', SPUser '9': Could not get migration data for entity so SKIPPING. Check migrator for further logs. Entity Old Name: '[mydomain\myuser]', Old Key 'S-1-5-21-299502267-1532298954-682003330-416720', New Name: 'i:0#.w|[mydomain\myuser]', New Key ''

This behavior occurs whether I attach a classic mode database to either a classic mode or claims mode web app. I have confirmed that classic auth works fine when the DB is attached to a classic mode web app in SharePoint 2013. It's just that when I run convert-spwebapplication (or any of the various ways to trigger the user conversion to claims) I always get the above error and no one can log in on the claims web app.

I tested this process against a different farm I have running the April 2013CU and I do not have these issues. That farm is also on Windows Server 2008 R2, so I'm not sure if it's a server OS thing or perhaps something introduced in a later CU or SP1 or what.

Anyone run into this before?

i am having three boxes where  in the first 2 boxes  sp 2013  been installed, and i wanna implement the index/crawl server

on the second box and  first box being appln server and  3rd box being the db server.

would like to know how to implement my search functionality using this  2nd box  which has sp 2013 is set up.

what are the steps i need to do  in order to implement the index/crawler feature in this sp farm.

search serv appln has been created already  in this 2nd box. 

would like to know the steps to configure the search[ i have already configured the search func. in my dev machine which has  sp 2013 and sql 2012 in a single box. in the case  of 3 server farm.

Hi
I have created a new site collection in my office 365-sharePoint team site and the site is published.
Now I want to show pages in my top navigation automatically when a new page is added.

but in navigation setting I found the check box is disabled.

What I should do to enable this check box

If we want to migrate e.g. only Managed metadata service application database from 2010 to 2013 environment what will be exact steps?
(I know for content db we have to use Powershell Mount command). 
But I guess in case of service application databases Mount command will not work, Can any one say if it true or not? 
What are the  steps involved to migrate such service application databases through Powershell?

Hi,

I'm getting "Sorry, something went wrong" error when I'm trying to open any office document from inside Search Results Page with Office Web Apps, the same error is appearing in the document preview as well.

The error in SharePoint logs says that the file cannot be found.

Please note that this error is coming only when the "Filename" of the document is not written in English (in my case its written with Arabic characters).

If I try to open it from the document library, its opening properly with no errors.

The only difference between two URLs (document URL in Search Results and in Document Library) is the value for "sourcedoc" attribute;

In the case of Search Results page, the filename in "sourcedoc" attribute is kept as is with Arabic characters.

While in the Document Library, the filename in "sourcedoc" attribute is converted into different characters (something like: "B9%D9%85%D9%8").

Anybody have an idea on how to overcome this issue, implement a workaround or modify the "sourcedoc" behavior?

Thanks in Advance.

Installed and configured SharePoint 2013 successfully. After that installed Project Server 2013 but when running SharePoint 2013 product configuration wizard after Project Server 2013 installation, the configuration wizard failed at step 8 (Creating Sample Data) displaying "Failed to create sample data".

Greetings,

I have a development environment where I have created a content type with associated retention information management policy.  However, I am unable to get the retention configuration to execute.  Its a very simple policy "contract date + 0 days -> declare record".  Is there a specific job I need to run to process this rule?  If so, what job is it?  I have tried the Information management policy job but still cannot get it to fire.

Any thoughts?

Thank you,

Bob

Hi,

We set up a sharepoint 2013 farm on Azure. The farm have a Fronte End server, a back end server and an sql server.

We allso have a DC server and avirtual net work connecting all of ouer servers.

Our Users connect from the client with a vpn to the Azure network and Connectiong to Sharepoint from the browser wich hold the user name and password for them.

Generaly this setup works ok but we do have to issues:

1. operations are slow some time and we get the "working on it ..." messege often. I guess its a network related issue since working on the server with RDP it works fine.

2. the office integration is slow, the document are slow to open and some times are failing to upload back to sharepoint when are saved from the office on the client.

Any body tried this setup on azure ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks

I'm getting this error after installing March 2013 Update for Sharepoint 2013 

Failed to call GetTypes on assembly Microsoft.Office.TranslationServices, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c. Method not found: 'Microsoft.Office.Web.Common.ProcessImageInfo Microsoft.Office.Web.Common.EnvironmentAdapters.IImagingAdapter.ProcessImage(System.IO.Stream, Double, Double)'.

This happens when I try to do smth in central admin, for example set outbound server for an web app

Hi Guys,

I understand as per below link that minimum three servers are required to provide high availability for Workflow Manager 1.0 in SharePoint 2013.

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sanjaynarang/archive/2013/04/06/sizing-and-capacity-planning-for-sharepoint-2013-resources.aspx

Could anyone please point me Microsoft resources or let me know what needs to be installed on the three servers and Hardware pre-requisites? 

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

We have big problems with SharePoint UPS Sync service as it does not start. On related thread I found that couple steps could help here: 

"So to fix it I 

1. Moved the Profile file in the powershell folder to a new folder
2. deleted cache
3. un-prevision the DB's
4. Reran the script and finally it started."

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/sharepoint/en-US/60d1a022-6fb6-43f3-af78-cfd3e88e9bdb/cant-start-user-profile-sync-service

Does anyone knows in more details how to accomplish this?

1. Moved the Profile file in the powershell folder to a new folder - where is that profile file located?
2. deleted cache - what cache?
3. un-prevision the DB's - can this be done like here explained?: http://www.chaitumadala.com/2012/11/sharepoint-2010-user-profile.html
4. Reran the script and finally it started. - what script was run here?
   

Thank you

HI,

Is the smtp server on my iis server is enough to send mails from sharepoint (alerts for example)

or does the smtp only relay the mail to exchange or other mail provider ?

If my site is open to the internet and some of my users updated their mail adress in their profile with a Gmail adress, Will they get the sharepoint alert to their Gmail account ?

thanks
