WAC (OWA) Office Web Apps Server Error while opening publicly hosted documents.

$

I have 2 WAC servers behind a load balancer with SSL offloaded to the LB. Both servers report healthy with Get-OfficeWebAppsMachine

Works fine with SharePoint 2013.

When I use it with a remote file, served using HTTP with no authentication (anonymous), I get a generic "Sorry there was a problem and we can't open this document..." error.

In the ULS and event viewer, I see the WOPI error and 501 which basically says:

Could not contact WOPI End Point. Error details - 'NotImplemented url - https://sample-owa-url.com/oh/wopi/files/@/wFileId?wFileId=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Blah%2Ecom%2FWordDocument%2Edocx&access_token=1&access_token_ttl=0'.

I also sometimes see this:

<HealthMessage>WordViewerWfeWatchdog reported status for WebWordViewer in category 'WfeRedirect'. Reported status: /default.aspx returned a 404, which means that we didn't have where to redirect.</HealthMessage> 

The very interesting part s that I have a dev server, with OWA (WAC) installed, thats not going through a LB and does not use SSL, that works just fine with the same public url word document.

SharePoint 2013 Open with Explorer returns error

$

Hello,

I have been working on this issue for hours over several days, but no resolution. When I click on Open with Explorer in the Library tab of a particular document library in SP 2013, I see this error:

"We're having a problem opening this location in File Explorer.  Add this web site to your trusted sites list and try again".

The site already exists in trusted sites, and even tried moving it to the Intranet Zone.  No difference - same message.  Also confirmed Web client is started, Desktop experience is installed on client and server. 

Does anyone know how to get around this issue?  This is really hampering our use of the system to download multiple files.

The only other resolution I have seen posted for this issue as as follows:

Cause: There is a missing Root site collection...
Resolution: Check and ensure,  that the “Managed Paths” are not changed in the web Application’s page, there is a (root) explicit for this web application and there is a working Root site collection.

I am not clear on how to implement the above resolution, if this is in fact the issue.

Thanks!


SharePoint 2013 calendar SCRIPT5009 and SEC7111 errors

I have a fresh install of SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard, and my computer is running Windows 8.1 (IE 11).  Two related problems:

The calendar is drawn as a transparent table.  When I mouse over the calendar cells, I get many errors in IE's Developer Tools:

SCRIPT5009: 'HighlightText' is undefined
File: start.aspx, Line: 1, Column: 1

When I try clicking on the previous or next month buttons, the text disappears from the Web page and stops responding with the error:

SEC7111: HTTP security is compromised by (null)
File:  start.aspx

I have not made any customizations to the master page to my knowledge, and this is SharePoint's built-in calendar app.  How can I resolve these problems?

401 Unauthorized Error when Registering Workflow Manager

$

I have installed the workflow manager successfully. However, when I try to run Register-SPWorkflowService I get a 401 Unauthorized error. I am running SharePoint 2013 Management Shell as administrator.

When I use internet explorer to browse to https://FQDNofServer:12290 I get prompted for my password 3 times and then get the Not Authorized Error here as well. I have tried this from the local host as well as remote machines with the same result therefore, I don't think I need to disable loopback check.

My user is a member of the Workflow AdminGroup as well as a local admin, farm administrator and I also added my account as an administrator for the Workflow Service Application in Central Administration. I also tried giving the workflow service account full read on the web application.

I cannot find anything in the ULS logs or windows event viewer logs when the login fails. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You.

Hello All,

I have migrated the SP2013 environment using database attach method for our intranet site. We also working on theSP2013 Internet facing site using the same content database as Internet site.

When I extended the web application for Internet facing site, zone toInternet and these are the URLs: The Intranet website URL ishttps://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx (Root Site) andSP2013 Internet facing site http://contoso.com (not a root site and publishing site template)

However, I found on the http://contoso.com users can still access thehttp://contoso.com/SitePages/home with same content as Intranet.

After done some Google search, bloggers mentioned to have move  https://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx to another site collection so that Internet facing site can exist root site.

  1.       Can 2 we have to two root sites in same web application? I need the content database to be same so that managers can checkInternet facing site and after signing into SP2013, redirects toInternet site. 
  2.       Which is the best option to achieve this with same content database.   

Please advice.

Regards,

SharePoint 2013 July 2014 Windows Update patches fail to install

The July 8, 2014 SharePoint 2013 updates supplied by the monthly Microsoft "Patch Tuesday" (2nd Tuesday of every month) refuse to install on my SharePoint 2013 system.  The failure is error code 8007066E.

The four Windows Update-supplied patches that refuse to install are:

KB2863826
KB2863837
KB2881003
KB2881077

Is this another case of a "bad patch" (remember the bad SP1)?

I eagerly await Microsoft's "fix for the fix".

I am using SharePoint 2013, and i want to configure high-trust apps for SharePoint.
I followed those msdn articles :

Http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp179901(v=office.15).aspx#Createapp2
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/office/fp179923
My problem now is the following:

After downloading and installing any app from the app store or even deploying it from Visual Studio, when i want to open the app it displays a blank page and shows the following error message:
This page can’t be displayed.

Make sure the web address http://apps-95e7c833b3f075.sp.local is correct.

So as you can see my domain is `sp.local` and my app prefix is `apps`...

Sorry my problem is a bit wide-open.
I do have an `App Management Service` and `Subscription Settings Service` running on the server.
I fellow the msdn articles and every thing was set like it is mentioned.

Can anyone help me please?

  1. SP 2013 Anon access enabled on Webapp
  2. Enabled Anon Access to entire Website
  3. Users can login fine to site and access all libraries and lists except one doc library which is set to inherit permission (Interestingly, they can get to the library when they go directly to the library url, but when they access the same document via URL from the main page, they get prompted ????)

Did the following:

  • Broke inheritance and re-established permission inheritance just in case something was stuck
  • made sure "access user permission lockdown mode" was not enabled

I have mysite setup for myself and now I'm testing the Skydrive/OneDrive for Business sync setup. It seems to be working fine, but what if a user deletes a folder on their mysite documents and local OneDrive folder? Is it possible to restore individual folders/files for mysites with the built in Sharepoint backup? If not, how can this be restored?

ADFS not working / endless redirect

$
0
0

Hello,

I'm in the process of setting up SharePoint 2013 in combination with AD FS. I've set up everything according to the different articles out there, but it doesn't seem to be working for some reason.

Symptom: I get the sign in page, select the ADFS login option, the browser does some postbacks and redirects and then returns to the sign in page again. This is repeated over and over.

In the ULS logs, only Access Denied errors seem to be linked to this issue, which would be quite normal as long as we're not being authenticated.

With Fiddler, I checked the requests going over the line and found the following requests:

302 POST /_login/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F&Source=%2F
404 GET /_trust/default.aspx?trust=ADFS&ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252F&Source=%2F HTTP/1.1
302 GET /Pages/PageNotFoundError.aspx?requestUrl=https://portal.contoso.com/_trust/default.aspx HTTP/1.1
302 GET /_layouts/15/Authenticate.aspx?Source=%2FPages%2FPageNotFoundError%2Easpx%3FrequestUrl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fportal%2Econtoso%2Ecom%2F%5Ftrust%2Fdefault%2Easpx HTTP/1.1
200 GET /_login/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252FPages%252FPageNotFoundError%252Easpx%253FrequestUrl%253Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fportal%252Econtoso%252Ecom%252F%255Ftrust%252Fdefault%252Easpx&Source=%2FPages%2FPageNotFoundError%2Easpx%3FrequestUrl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fportal%2Econtoso%2Ecom%2F%5Ftrust%2Fdefault%2Easpx HTTP/1.1 

Two things stand out:

- The 404 on the /_trust/default.aspx
- Where is the redirect to the AD FS?

So it appears that the problem is not with the AD FS, but with SharePoint as we never even touch the AD FS. But why? I recreated the trusted token issuer, which made no difference. Checked the certificates and stuff, seems to be fine.

Apart from obviously looking for a solution, I'm looking for a place to start looking. I've check the ULS logs and now don't know where to look any more. So if you guys have any ideas, that would be much appreciated.
