ADFS 3.0 - SharePoint 2013 - Kerberos Authentication

Hiya,

trying to figure out the possibilities of setting up an environment using Web Application Gateway(WAP), ADFS and SharePoint 2013, with Kerberos authentication.

SP2013 Kerberos authentication no problem.

ADFS 3.0 with non-claims relying party. However I am unsure on how to add the ADFS as identity provider for SP2013. The exact Powershell command. I've done a few other claims SAML/Windows providers which isn't an issue.

Anyone got any input to this?

Overall thought was to provide domain users, external access, through the WAP, hitting the SharePoint 2013 farm with Kerberos tickets, so that the users can be delegated onwards.

Internally wont be a problem.

Or am I chasing down the wrong track?

Office Web Apps 2013: Documents are unable to open on client

Dear All,

I've configured OWA on my farm. But, due to some reasons, I do not require OWA on one of my web applications. To achieve this, i activated the site collection feature 'Open Documents in Client Applications by Default' and document library settings to "Open in the client application".

Now, it opens the document in the client applications when users open it from the document library. However, it opens on OWA when user opens the document from the workflow task form or link provided in an email.

Any help would be appreciable. Thanks!

One Drive for Business Admin & Recovery

I have a few questions regarding One Drive for Business in a government tenancy:

1 - What are the recovery options for files a user has removed from their recycle bin (either for individual files or complete restore for that user)?

2 - Is there a way to not allow users access to their recycle bin or to prevent them from being able to empty it?

3 - Does the 14 day restore option on SharePoint site collections apply to each users individual OneDrive for Business site? ie: Can user A's OneDrive be restored to the state it was 10 days prior without interfering with user B?

4 - I have read that OneDrive does not allow syncing to a network location. Has anyone came up with a creative workaround to this through group policy or third party software?

Thank you

I recently disconnected my sharepoint server from my farm due to some problems. (i have 2 servers, one for sharepoint and a database server). When all problems were fixed, i tried to connect to the existing farm I have, and got the error that "the database name is not a valid configuration database". I then went and installed SP1 for sharepoint server 2013, then tried to connect again, but still no avail.

The Health Analyzer page "Review problems and solutions" displays items that are 3 months old.  When clicking any of the items, the DispForm.aspx?ID=item id is displayed.  Yet, there is no item behind the list item on the previous page. The following screenshot is displayed.  

When searching for the Correlation ID in the ULS log files, nothing is returned.  Has anyone seen this before?  I have no luck searching for Health Analyzer issues.

Verify KB2880963 for Workflow Major Errors after SP15 SP1 Upgrades

First, how do we verify that KB2880963 has been installed? It does not show up in the hot fix list after installing it. Here is the official link where we downloaded it from: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2880963/en-us and installed it. 

Second, do we need to install this patch on all app servers? There is no documentation explaining this. We installed the patch on the WFE, but we have the workflow farm running on one mid-tier app server. Do we have to install KB2880963 on all app servers?

Our workflows stopped working after applying post-SP1 patches on our on-premise SharePoint 2013 farm - big problem in production; error is described here http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a78a40f3-14b5-4fa2-963c-c0ec55ae7c2e/sharepoint-server-sp1-installation-error-related-to-workflow?forum=sharepointadmin.

We are migrating from SP 2010 to SP 2013.  We have SP 2013 plus SP1 installed

If a list view has a BCS column, when the BCS value is clicked, instead of going to the entity's properties page, it gets the error:

"Sorry, something went wrong"
The passed in identifier is not properly encoded.

However, if I drop down the context menu next to the BCS value and choose "View Profile", it works.

Any clues on fixes for this?

SharePoint 2013 July 2014 CU - People Picker fields empty in Edit forms

After applying the July 2014 CU for SharePoint server, I discovered that Person or Group (People Picker) fields are not populated with server values in list item Edit forms.  However, the field values can be viewed in list views and in Display forms.  I examined the client side code and determined that field data is not being returned from the server for Edit forms. 

In a test environment, I uninstalled SharePoint 2013, reinstalled SP 2013 with SP1 and the issue went away.  I then applied the May 2014, June 2014, and July 2014 CUs.  The issue did not exist after applying the May and June CUs.  It did exist after applying the July 2014 CU.

I have one web application and three host-named site collections. I had read an article that I just need to have the web application URL in the content source for the search to work, but that didn't resolve my issue.

https://webapplication - main root web application

https://staff.domain.com - Host name site collection

https://services.domain.com Host name site collection

https://sharepoint.domain.com host name site collection.

I have also created the registry entry for BackConnectionHostNames also.

Under Search Application topology I have all green check marks, but searchable items are listed as 0.

I am getting the following errors on my SharePoint 2013 server.

The start address https://sharepoint.domain.com cannot be crawled.

Context: Application 'Connect_Search', Catalog 'Portal_Content'

Details:

This URL is part of a host header SharePoint deployment and the search application is not configured to crawl individual host header sites. This will be crawled as a part of the host header Web application if configured as a start address.   (0x80040de4)

Office Web Apps 2013 - Excel, fine, Word & Powerpoint, unable to view.

Hi All,

I am having an infuriating issue where by the following occurs when opening documents via OWA:

  • Excel - Preview, no problem, opening, no problem, editing, no problem (even when accessing oData connections for PWA).
  • Word - Preview, errors, opening, errors, editing (incredibly!!) works.
  • PowerPoint - Nothing works...

I think I have read every blog post on every error I am receiving in the ULS but nothing is resolving. It is on a VMware VM and I had to reinstall OWA after it was noted that it has rather surprising behaviour if OWA is not installed on the system drive. I have installed each hotfix/update and tested after each with no joy...

Three (possibly misleading) error categories:

From OWA log:

  • Cannot create WOPI Proof Token - could not find valid old proof key;

From SP log:

  • WOPI Proof: Missing Header;
  • Useragent not available, file operations may not be optimized (doubt this is causing my problem but the quality of errors in the logs is so bad it may well be).

For context, the service account for OWA is local admin on the box and has full access to the content databases on the SQL server.

The symptoms of the error are the biggest concern given the degrees of success I am having with the different apps (kind of rules out security or setup if Excel works fine and Word sort of works).

Any help will be very much appreciated and may stop my increasing baldness with the amount of hair I am pulling out!!

Thanks in advance.

Onedrive for Business Authentication with Web Application Gateway

We are running SharePoint 2013 (with all available updates applied) on premises.  We are looking to move from Forefront TMG to publish the site to external to the Web Application Gateway functionality in Windows Server 2012 R2.

We seem to be having issues with OneDrive for Business authenticating for users outside of our network.  We see mixed results - with the app sometimes indicating that it can't authenticate at all and other times popping a browser window with the WAG HTML login page.

Is there any way to configure the published application in WAG to allow the OneDrive client to provide credentials in any way other than popping the HTML login page?

2 web servers, 3 application servers, 1 OWA server, 1 DB server. Upgraded a site from 2010 to 2013. On one web server, I am getting:

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

This is happening only on the upgraded site.

If I create a new site collection in SP 2013 mode on the same web server, it is working fine. Eventviewer Application logs are not helpful.

Thanks, Soumya | MCITP, SharePoint 2010
