Hello. I have SharePoint sp2013 team site with document library with multiple documents. Problem: "Find an Item" listfilter search box does not return results. New document library with new items behaves similarly so this seems to be problem with spweb. I am able to fix problem if I safe site as template and use that template to create a new spweb. Unfortunately user permissions will not be copied so this is bad solution. Search this site finds all the items correctly.  I am Site Collection administrator so this should not be a permissions issue.

I was not able to solve problem using these steps (http://www.wikiguga.com/topic/d2ae39cfed7d15d8a4987f72aa0fe289):

Made the list searchable from list advance setting and Re indexed the list.
Re-indexed the site as well
Content Approval No
Created view and made it standard view

Any ideas?

Hi,

We are planning to use SharePoint as an authentication mechanism. After the user is authenticated, the information needs to be passed in a secure manner to another application in the same domain. In order to do this securely, that application needs to be passed some kind of token that it can verify in addition to the username and password variables being passed.

Can anyone tell me of a simple but secure way to pass this data from SharePoint to the other application? BTW, Kerberos is involved in the SharePoint login process and I would like the other application to know that the login is legitimate without having to query Active Directory.

thanks,

Sherazad.

Hi

We have a SharePoint 2013 Farm. We have created a site collection and created a site under the site collection.

Users have started using it and uploaded documents to the libraries, submitted some records in the Lists.

Now due to operational issues we have to move this site to another SharePoint 2013 farm.

Our task is to Move this existing site to another SharePoint farm under an existing site collection.

Farm A

ServerA/SitecollectionB/MysiteA

Farm B

ServerB/SitecollectionB/MysiteA

Please suggest how this can be achieved.

Thanks.

I have a SharePoint 2013 site with a large document library that uses document sets. These document sets also have related tasks in a Tasks list that are displayed on the document set welcome page (though I'm not certain this is relevant).  Both the library and the list have >5000 items, though I have upped the list view threshold in Central Admin to 6000 items for now.  The problem is that for normal users of the site (who have Edit access to the document library and Read or Edit access to other things), opening a document set takes a long time. However "admin" users (who basically have "Manage Lists" access to everything in the site) can open documents sets just fine.  It takes normal users about 10 times longer to open a document set than an admin user.

Any ideas on most likely causes of this performance gap between the two different types of users and how to fix?

Notes: This is a single-server farm (SP 2013 Enterprise, SQL Server 2008 R2); site is not a publishing site.

I am having an issue where the user profile sync service is stuck starting. I have Read harbars guide to fixing this, located here:http://www.harbar.net/articles/sp2010ups2.aspx#ups14

My question is if I recreate the User Profile Service Application do I need to delete the first one first? The reason I ask is because I'm afraid of losing the SharePoint Mysites data. All the permissions are set correctly according to harbar's article and it still isn't working, so I tried recreating the User Profile Service application - to no avail.

Also I read here that http://mmman.itgroove.net/2013/09/16/debugging-steps-in-sharepoint-2013-ups-creation/ this may help, specifically step 8. It says clear the configuration cache, is this likely to resolve the issue of the user profile sync service not starting.

We are building a new SharePoint 2013 for our company.

In our termstore we have built a tree to show our organization hierarchy.

I have created a list with three columns to pick up the organization. I want to build a solution like this:

If I pick Company 1 in the first column I want to have only Level A and Level B to choose in the second column. And if I pick Level A I just want to see Level AA and AB in the third column.

1. Company 1
   1. Level A
      1. Level AA
      2. Level AB
   2. Level B
      1. Level BA
      2. Level BB
2. Company 2
   1. Level C
      1. Level CA
      2. Level CB
   2. Level D
      1. Level DA
      2. Level DB

Is there anyone that knows if this is possible to create a solution like this with SharePoint? I am just an ordinary administrator… I have no programming competence.

Hello there,

I did ask this question in the Office 365 community (https://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/p/405523/998647#998647). But those "high tech" questions are usually answered very poorly. To save myself the frustration of reading answers that don't even apply on the question, I wanted to give this forum a shot. I guess there are a lot more specialists here :)

So the problem I am facing is that I had a Cloud user "Mark Twain (m.twain@example.com)". That user is also present in our Active Directory as "Twain, Mark (m.twain@example.com)". I activated DirSync, but due to both Twains sharing the same logon name, it was impossible to synchronize the Active Directory user to the Cloud. So I renamed the Cloud user and the Active Directory user was then syncronized. Afterwards I deleted the Cloud user "Mark Twain (m.twain2@example.com)".

In short:

1. Have Cloud user "Mark Twain (m.twain@example.com)"
2. Have Active Directory User "Twain, Mark (m.twain@example.com)"
3. Installed DirSync
4. Conflict between Cloud and Active Directory User
   
5. Renamed Cloud User from "Mark Twain (m.twain@example.com)" -> "Mark Twain (m.twain2@example.com)" (added the character2)
6. Sync was successful
7. Deleted "Mark Twain (m.twain2@example.com)"
   

Now two things happened:

1. I forgot to save a copy of the contents of the personal website of the Cloud user.
2. My Active Directory user "Twain, Mark (m.twain@example.com)" got assigned the personal websiteh**ps://example-my.sharepoint.com/personal/m_twain_example_com1 (character1 was appended)

This is what I want to achieve (I love lists! 😁):

1. Download a full copy of the contents of the personal site of the Cloud user "Mark Twain (m.twain2@example.com)". The user was deleted from the Cloud (Office 365) but is still present when connecting to Sharepoint Online via Powershell and running Get-SPOUser -Site [h**ps://example-my.sharepoint.com].
2. Delete the old user completely
3. Move h**ps://example-my.sharepoint.com/personal/m_twain_example_com1 toh**ps://example-my.sharepoint.com/personal/m_twain_example_com (without the character 1)
   - or-
   simply delete and recreate the personal site from "Twain, Mark (m.twain@example.com)" without the character 1.

Thing is: I have no clue how to achieve that and I need your help! I don't even know how to start.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, 

We're currently experiencing an issue where the Tasks link doesnt work on migrated mysites. When a user clicks on Task, they get unknown error occured and the correlation ID didnt return alot of details.

"Failed to load mysite. User Profil ID is  not"

We have confirmed the task list loads fine for new accounts or if we delete and recreate the mysite for migrated users. Please advise. Thanks.

Hello,

I am having a problem with one site of my SharePoint. From since time ago, I don't know why, but when I upload a document using drag and drop the document is uploaded with status "check out", this happen in all new libraries in the same site and subsites. In other sites of my SharePoint farm I don't have this problem. It's really strange because if you create a new library in the same site or subsites you always have the problem.

I have checked that the library doesn't have any required field and also I have checked that this option in versioning settings is no.

Any ideas??

Thank you in advance.

Troubleshooting done:

• Webclient services is started and automatic
• Checked IE 32 bit version is used
• stsupld uploadctl class add-on is enabled and other SharePoint related as well.
• Internet options >> trusted site and other troubleshooting done
• Launch IE in “start in private browsing
• Tried online repair for office
• SharePoint OpenDocuments Class is Enabled
• Checked compatibility  view
• F12 developer option changing

still getting the same error as attached. Can any one help me with a fix if you came across. 

Note: Few users are facing the same other are able to open it successfully.

Regards,

Soupau

Hi All,

We are working on share point 2013 farm deployment. Here is few things would like to discuss here. FYI, Now my company using separate farm to handle the internal/external request means they have internal and external farm. But in our new topology we will have one farm (2 WFE+2 DC+2 APP+2 OWA + 1 WFM), which will handle internal and external request through Hardware load balancing (Netscaler). But concern is about application pools, they wouldn’t like to have more than 4 or 5 Application pools in the new farm as they are currently using 4 application pools for the internal web application and 4 application pools for external web applications in the existing farms. As I know we can have up to 10 application pools per farm, but good to have not more than 5 app pool. FYI, we will have 7 custom web applications and 5 others web applications. Now question is, how many separate application pools we will need for that many web applications and also service application. We know in SP 2013 Microsoft recommend to have single web application with host based site collection. But in our case as we are using path based site collection for all the web applications.

<o:p>Thanks in advanced!</o:p>

In my current project I designed 8 (4 WFE+2DC+2APP) servers virtualized SharePoint farm. Now my client wants to use their physical machine into this farm as they are using physical machine for their existing farm. Now question is, can I use few servers as a physical and few of them as virtual in the farm? If yes, which services should run on the physical server as well on the virtual servers?

Thanks

After applying maintenance this weekend, the CreatePage.aspx behavior has changed>
Original behavior was to substitute "-" for spaces in the URL, bow %20 is substituted.
Looking in F12 Debug, I see the code is in function UpdateUrl()

suggestUrlValue += '-';

is changed to

suggestUrlValue += encodeURIComponent(currentChar);

Can I revert this behavior?

%20 causes and error and the user has to manually overtype the dash.

Today I started getting the following error:

There is a compatibility range mismatch between the Web server and database "", and connections to the data have been blocked to due to this incompatibility. This can happen when a content database has not been upgraded to be within the compatibility range of the Web server, or if the database has been upgraded to a higher level than the web server. The Web server and the database must be upgraded to the same version and build level to return to compatibility range.

The strange thing is that the database is not specified.

Central Administration was not loading and giving the following error:

I have confirmed that the permissions on the databases have not changed. I even granted SysAdmin permissions to the Farm and Svc account.

I started noticing that several services were stopping and restarting with the following errors:

The SharePoint Timer Service service terminated with the following service-specific error:

 Any ideas what's going on here? I was thinking that maybe there was a firewall issue and that's why the original message about the compatibility mismatch was unable to return a database name. Npw i'm not so sure. Tomorrow I will try disabling firewalls just to make sure that's not causing a problem.

Thank you

Hi, following problem:

I have created a usergroup in my UserProfile Service Application, which is synchronized with my Active Directory and it works perfectly. But now I want to set some rights for this usergroup in one of my website collections, but I can only create there completely new usergroups. Does anyone have an idea, how I can realize this?

The cause is, that i have a website collection, which should only be visible for the personnel department and for this I have a group in my UserprofileApplication which is synchronized.

Thanks for your help!
