Error creating/editing calculated site column

$
0
0

Hello everyone,

When I try to create or edit an existing calculated 'site column' in a SharePoint 2013 publishing site collection I get an error (similar to the one described here - creating this new thread since not getting any response in that 2010 thread :-)). It works fine on another web application just fine in the same farm. Not able to pinpoint anything from the ULS logs other than seeing SharePoint complaining about are 'All Day Event' and 'IconOverlay' as seen below.  None of these seems to me are custom field. Also I can view them both from the SharePoint Manager... so I don't think they can be corrupt or something. Any suggestion what the next step can be? 

Also in my case I can't edit an existing calculated column either. Nothing stands out to me in the ULS log other than the 'all day event' field.

Appreciate any feedback from anybody.

Unpartitioned or partitioned service app for Extranet

$
0
0
Hi guys,

For my partner web application I need to have content isolation from intranel web app .  Specially user profile and search content. For this would recommend:

I include one proxy group for Extranet but it also uses partitioned services (with security trimming so search)?

OR 

Shall I use dedicated Search and MMD using a custom service group uses partitioned services and default group uses unpartitioned (which is not recommend with Microsoft if I want to go to SPO later)? 

Any advise greatly appreciated.

SharePoint 2013 & Cisco ACE Issue

$
0
0

Hi all,

We have just upgraded the Cisco ACE servers which provide the SSL offloading for our SharePoint 2013 farm in our test environment. The ACE is now on version 2.1e (the latest version).

During testing, an issue was found with the "Add Document" link (the one with the circled plus sign at the top of the list of documents), clicking this link gives an error message. Every other link to the same function (eg, in the ribbon, etc) appears to correctly encode the "List" parameter in the link except for this one, where we have a parameter which looks like this:

List={SOME-RANDOM-GUID}

In the url. Any other link to the same function encodes the {} to %7B and %7D. This is the only link we've found like this.

Braces are not in the list of URI-safe characters, and the original RFC (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2396.txt) specifically recommends these are encoded "because gateways and other transport agents are known to sometimes modify such characters".

Has anyone else seen this issue? Should it be considered a SharePoint bug as it doesn't correctly encode the characters?

Thanks.



Sharepoint 2013 installation modules

Hi All,

Question - we are planning to install SP  2013 Ent. Our sysadmin is very experienced but he did not take any SP classes. 

He is planning to install SP 2013 Ent  in regular/full configuration and then install reporting services integration module.

Are there any other modules/features SP 2013 Ent  that not included into regular install and would need to be installed separately ( like SSRS in integrated mode)...?

Get redirected to ADFS server each time i switch to an other WebApplication (1 subdomain/webapp)

$

Hello Everyone,

I have setup an environment on Sharepoint 2013 since we are upgrading from 2010.

We now wants to use the ADFS to manage the Authentication, so far, everything is good, i manage to configure the ADFS server, to setup the STS provider on sharepoint side.
I have added all my WebApplications (1 per subdomain) like it says in this article : http://blogs.technet.com/b/speschka/archive/2010/04/27/how-to-create-multiple-claims-auth-web-apps-in-a-single-sharepoint-2010-farm.aspx 

My problem now is that when i hit my landing page on https://landing.contoso.com, i'm redirected to the ADFS server and get the Security Token, fine.

Then if i go to my newsfeed on https://mysite.contoso.com i'm again redirected to the ADFS server, and so on for all webapplications. It's a bit annoying and i a certain way blocking as for example on the Landing page, we display the Newsfeed, which manage the profile pictures from the Mysite Webapplication and because of this, all pictures are not correctly displayed until we reach the mysite webapp and get the security Token.

My question here is :

Is it possible to share the security token between all webapps / subdomains ? How ?

Or is there any workaround to avoid the 5 secondes of Authication each time i move to an other subdomain of my farm.

Thank you very much,

Clément

Email notification on newsfeed is using forward slash (/) which result is bad link error

We have a SharePoint 2013 on-premise farm. User have setup email notification on their newsfeed update (which is deafult setup).

When they recieved email, they click on the "name" with links will result in bad link error. After investigation we found the links are like:

https://my.sharepoint.com/Person.aspx?accountname=DOMAIN/userID

which caused error. If we changed to:

https://my.sharepoint.com/Person.aspx?accountname=DOMAIN\userID

It will work fine. How can we change the behaviour?

Hi,

I have set up my synchronizing connection to our active directory. However, the sync job doesn't seem to be picking up the most recent data. For example, users are showing up with old job titles etc. Any idea of how I make the sycn job pick up the correct data?

Upgrade log file in MaintenanceLogs library breaks content deployment

$
0
0

I have two SharePoint 2013 farms: authoring and publishing target.  Content deployment jobs are used to push changes from authoring.  This has been working just fine until I applied the latest updates.  The upgrade process create a log files in the _catalog/MaintenanceLogs library.  The Content Deployment process wants to deploy this list now.  Since it already exists on the target, the import fails.

Has anyone run into this?  Is there any way to tell Content Deployment to not export this?  There's really no reason to publish this library.  Any way to delete it on the target so it just gets re-created?

SharePoint lists.asmx web service error in InfoPath and SOAPUI

$

We have a SharePoint 2013 farm with web applications using Claims Authentication. I'm trying to create an InfoPath 2013 form where I want to add lists.asmx (https://servername/_vti_bin/lists.asmx) web service to receive/submit data, but I'm getting below error, even if I use the farm account when it prompts for credentials. SharePoint logs look clean, IIS logs have some 401 errors. 

"The file is not a valid XML file. Not enough storage is available to process this command"

When I add the web service in SOAPUI using the farm account, it works fine. It only throws below error when I use my user account, which is a farm admin and also added to web application's User Policy. IIS logs have 401 error.

"Error loading [https://servername/_vti_bin/lists.asmx?wsdl]: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: error: Unexpected end of file after null"

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this issue?

Thank you,

Hi All,

I have done following configuration in Sharepoint for AAM

Internal URl                 Zone                     Public Url

http://server:9999     default                http://server:9999

http://serverip:9999   intranet             http://serverip:9999

http://liveip:9999        internet             http://liveip:9999

http://portal.xyz.com  extranet            http://portal.xyz.com

IIS bindings are:

Type        Host Name      Port          Ip

http                               9999

http       server              9999         serverip

http                               9999         liveip

http       portal.xyz.com 9999         liveip

Also created rule on firewall to redirect http://portal.xyz.com:9999 to http://serverip:9999

When i am hitting http://portal.xyz.com:9999 URL it pops up authentication window.

Even though entering correct username and password it repeatedly asking for the same. Could not figure out the problem.

If you have any idea then let me know.

SharePoint 2013 SP1- Very Very Slow performance of infopath List with Data Connection

$

After Installing SharePoint SP1 we noticed a big performance issue with lists with data connection. each item is taking around 30 sec. to open. We checked this multiple times and on multiple farms. This is happening only after installing SP1(15.0.4571.1502).The list we have is a custom list with 3 data connection(Company, Contact Name and Service Category)

Before SP1 Each item opens in couple of seconds.

This list do not have item level permissions and it has only 400 items.

Tons of Cannot Find SQL Server errors in ULS log

$
0
0

Background: I inherited the maintenance of this farm. The previous consultant migrated the client from WSS 3.0 to 2013 by way of 2007 MOSS and 2010 (unsure of version). I do not know if there was a "temporary" SQL server used during this process that no longer exists. It seems likely given all of the errors regarding a missing SQL server.

The current 2013 Enterprise farm contains 1 WFE and 3 App servers, 2 of which comprise the search topology. There is one SQL server, not aliased. All machines are VMs. One of the search servers (App) is on a different ESXi host. The timer job that is creating all of the ULS errors is running on the WFE. Beyond that, the farm has these symptoms:

It "works" albeit very slowly. Crawl rate of 2-7 dps for both external file shares and the SP content (both with and without Task Offloading / Chimney Offloading enabled). It seems to frequently recycle or take an otherwise long time to render in the browser (any page). Finally, it  spews tens of thousands of errors 24x7 on the WFE saying a SQL server (unnamed) cannot be contacted via Named Pipes.

Specifically: "Unknown SQL Exception 53 occurred. Additional error information from SQL Server is included below.  A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)".

The next error in the sequence is: "An internal error occurred while running a timer job: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.TryGetConnection(DbConnection owningObject, UInt32 waitForMultipleObjectsTimeout, Boolean allowCreate, Boolean onlyOneCheckConnection, DbConnectionOptions userOptions, DbConnectionInternal& connection)..."

This is followed by an error such as this: "There was an internal error invoking the timer job '{E4DDC92E-0056-4E7E-BD3F-1CF5670ACB7D}' for service '{6105D588-FB34-4F1C-82F6-479D7FE146EA}'."

Of course, each time the timer job mentioned is different. 

One more error appears consistently with these although not as frequently: "The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Diagnostics.SPDiagnosticsMetricsProvider (ID 36e6942a-9a80-440f-94a4-e4a606362734) threw an exception. More information is included below.  Connection Timeout Expired.  The timeout period elapsed while attempting to consume the pre-login handshake acknowledgement.  This could be because the pre-login handshake failed or the server was unable to respond back in time.  The duration spent while attempting to connect to this server was - [Pre-Login] initialization=21276; handshake=0;"

I have been troubleshooting this for days but am not making much progress. How can I determine just what SQL server it says it cannot find and where that server name is stored? It seems like it has to be part of the Timer job configuration since the two things are related.

SAML Assertion URL

$
0
0

Been working with a 3rd party IDP on establishing SSO for my on premise environment with SAML, I'm at the point now where they are needing to know what the ACS or SAML endpoint URL would be...this would actually process the SAML assertion they send back.

Looking through documentation all i can see is that other 3rd party IDPs are only configuring the response to go back to the root site collection for the web application. Am i correct in my thought that if i provide them the URL of my root site collection say "https://example.company.com" that SharePoint will process the SAML assertion? Or is there some other URL i need to be passing that will handle the assertion?
