Backup/Restore subsite including Workflow History

September 6, 2015, 9:28 pm

I know this topic has been asked on the Internet many times but I thought it would be worth seeing if there was any new information.

I need to move a subsite to a new site collection and its imperative the workflow history is kept for auditing purposes.  Export/Import won't work as this doesn't bring across the history.  I can't use Backup-SPSite as this is a subsite.  We have a 200GB databases that needs to be "split" and its starting to get a bit urgent.

Any new information on how this can be done or is there a product out there that will do this?

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.

As you can see from the screenshot he is well beneath the alert limit - any idea how to fix this?

Cannot add folder to Sharepoint Foundation 2013 page

Hi

We are using SharePoint Foundation 2013. Recently, when choosing the option to Edit a page (Gear icon > Edit Page), I noticed that the Files tab is no longer displayed. This is affecting everyone who uses the site.

I have checked that:

Domain Users have Design, Edit, Contribute, Read permissions for the site as a whole
Site Settings > Sharepoint Designer Settings: 'Enable Sharepoint Designer' and 'Enable Customizing Master Pages and Page Layouts' are enabled
Site Settings > Site Libraries and Lists > 'Customise webpage' > Advanced Settings > 'Make "New Folder" command available? = Yes

The Files tab which contains the Folder command does not appear when I or anyone else choose to edit a page.

Can anyone help me fix this, please?

Thanks.

Unable to provision / unprovision Web Application on a server : Access to the path 'Global\Microsoft.SharePoint.SPIisProvisioningLock' is denied.

Hello,

I'm currently facing an issue with the provisionning of web application in a farm : SharePoint 2013 SP1 With September 2014 CU - Windows Server 2012 R2.

My farm is made of 3 servers :

  • A SQL server
  • An application server hosting the central administration
  • A front end server

When I create a new web application (with standard parameters in Central Administration), everything seems to work fine.

However, IIS site and application pool are only created on the application server.

Looking in ULS logs on Front End Server, I found this error :

The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebApplicationProvisioningJobDefinition (ID {GUID}) threw an exception. More information is included below.  Access to the path 'Global\Microsoft.SharePoint.SPIisProvisioningLock' is denied.

In the timer jobs history, I found the same error on the timer job "Provisioning Web Application (Name of web application)"...

Creating the web application using PowerShell does the same, IIS site and application pool are only created on the server where command is executed.

I already try to restart servers, make IISReset, and try to detach front end server from the farm and attach it again. Running the config wizard create missing IIS site and application pool on servers but it still don't work for new web application.

Can you help me find out the missing permission ?

Thanks

Wondering if the below is possible. 

  1. I would like to link custom list (or table if easier) to an image
  2. When I click on image ‘A’, it would reveal list ‘1’.
  3. When I click on image ‘B’, it would hide list ‘1’ and reveal list ‘2’ in the same position as list ‘1’.
  4. All on the same page so user is always on the home page.  

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Alerts Not Working when "New items are added" is selected

We are using SharePoint 2013 on-premise standard edition. I noticed there was same question at 2009. I am not sure whether it is an old bug or feature.

We have a list with "require content approval" enabled. By setup "Alert me" on that list for  "New items are added", a confirmation email will be immediately sent. The mail will confirm user have setup "alert me" on that list. However, whatever new item added to the list, regardless the item is approved/pending/rejected, no email is sent.

After we change "New items are added" to "All changes", the "alert me" work as expected.

Is it desired behaviour?

Sharepoint Online - Adding 1500+ External Users

Hi,

Microsoft support sent me this way.

We've come across a difficult situation where we have two tenants, one for students and one for employees (Due to licensing).

Now, the teachers need access to the Student-Sharepoint. This would be fine as manual work if it was one school and about 30 employees.

The number is over 1500, and it would be beneficial if the process could be automated.

I see there is support for the following commands in Powershell.

-Get-SPOExternalUser

-Remove-SPOExternalUser

We could at least remove 1500 users with a script. The problem is that there is no "add" function. 

I also see from a previous (2 years old) post that it was not possible back then.

Also the question of managing them automatically comes up. As these are External Users, how can we maintain the users?

If we do end up adding them to the site, and then a specific school.. If the employee changes work to a new school, how do we easily change the permissions and add them to the new school.

Multi tenanted SharePoint 2013 Foundation search not returning results.

September 3, 2015, 5:03 pm

Hi All,

I am building a multi tenanted SharePoint 2013 Foundation environment using claims based authentication via ADFS 3.0.

We currently have three servers in the SharePoint farm 1 web front end, 1 App server and 1 SQL server. These will scale to 3 of each except the SQL server.

We have two tenant sites created and our testing has gone well with the exception of Search returning no results for either tenant even though we have managed to index the content.

 All tenant are provisioned to our ‘Hosting Root – SSL’ Web application using hostname based site collections ie: Tenant1.domain.com with the web application https://spprdapp01/

This was originally configured to use Claims authentication and windows authentication in the same zone and we could index the content when using a proxy server for the search service but no results were returned when searching within a site.

In our troubleshooting of the search issue the web app has since had windows auth disabled and has been extended to a new ‘Intranet Zone’ with windows auth enabled. The search content source has been configured to crawl this new site. ‘http://spprdapp01:27543’

We are receiving the following error:

Access is denied. Verify that either the Default Content Access Account has access to this repository, or add a crawl rule to crawl this repository. If the repository being crawled is a SharePoint repository, verify that the account you are using has"Full Read" permissions on the SharePoint Web Application being crawled.

Browsing in IE to http://spprdapp01:27543 as our default content access account seems to work and as I understand it the crawl will access all sites under this web app.

I have searched the forums and tried various solutions such as adding the 'DisableLoopbackCheck' reg key and I have also tried the 'BackConnectionHostNames' reg key option with no luck.

I feel there must be something I have missed in the configuration, I would appreciate any thoughts on what to try next.

Thanks!

Library Settings - Permissions for this document library - Sorry you don't have access to this page

September 8, 2015, 2:33 am

Hello,

In one of my site collections, site owners are unable to see the library specific permissions. The permissions are inheriting from the parent and the 'Full Control' permission level has not been modified in any way. Currently only Site Collection Administrators can view the page. I've tried adding the user outside of groups with the 'Full Control' permission level. I've also broke inheritance and inherited from parent again and nothing changes.

To confirm, open the library, library settings then 'Permissions for this document library'. My test account (site owner) receives "Sorry, you don't have access to this page". In my experience owners can usually view this page by default?

I have tested this on a different site collection and the result is an owner can view the permissions page.

Is this a bug that's fixed in a KB article?

Thanks,
Oli

Content deployment suddenly failing with ERROR: Requested value 'PublishingPages' was not found

Content deployment has suddenly started failing on about half our sites with the message: 

ERROR: Requested value 'PublishingPages' was not found.  

The relevant section from the import report (on the destination site) is below. To my knowledge, there were no substantial or structural changes to the sites that are failing; they had been publishing properly for months. Very little to be found about this on Google/Bing. I have no idea where to go from here. I'm pretty facile with PowerShell in case there are any scripts I can run for troubleshooting purposes. Thanks.

Managed Metadata Service- Term Store Issue

The Term Store for my MMS shows up perfectly in CA but will not populate/connect to any of my site collections.  It was working fine until we moved from one data center to another, requiring shut down of our entire network.  Still worked after bringing SharePoint servers back online but after doing Windows server 2012 updates, no SP updates, the term store is no longer available in any of my site collections.  Any ideas?  I haven't tried creating a new service app yet, I am making that my last resort.
