Migrate SP2010 Root site to 2013 Sub-Site

September 16, 2015, 10:05 am

Hello All,

Warning:  NEWBIE

We have an existing SP2010 site with a TON of data in it.  We have set up a 2013 site which has some content, but serves mainly as a jumping off point to the old SP2010 site where most of content exists.

I want to migrate the SP2010 root site into a Subsite in 2013.

I've backup up my old DB and have attached it to my new SQL Server. But I'm getting errors in the Mount-SPContentDatabase command. The error log contains these ERRORS:

Database [WSS_Content_MigrationTest] contains a site (Id = [4a6ef6eb-c064-479d-916e-7f7ea2fd8288], Url = [/]) that is not found in the site map. Consider detach and reattach the database.

Database [WSS_Content_MigrationTest] contains a site (Id = [4a6ef6eb-c064-479d-916e-7f7ea2fd8288], Url = [/]) whose url is already used by a different site, in database (Id = [040e7f37-e4e8-491e-a422-d2d34392ec6e], name = [WSS_Content_7575]), in the same web application. Consider deleting one of the sites which have conflicting urls.

(There are other warning and info messages in the error log as well).  Can I perform a Mount-SPContentDatabase into a subsite?

  • What strategy should I be using to migrate my old site? 
  • Or is this just not going to work at all?
  • Should I be using export/import instead?

Any ideas would be most welcome at this point. (Being a newbie isn't very fun).

Foundation 2013 Custom / Offline help problem

My SharePoint server isn't allowed outgoing Internet access for security reasons, therefore normal Help function doesn't work.

I have downloaded the SharePoint 2013 CHM Offline help file  and can use it myself but want to make it available to the users via the site help as well.

I have set up a Custom Help  collection and configured it so that it can show the Help file that I've uploaded and it is selectable, but the CHM file displays rubbish characters when opened.

What format should it be? Or what resources need to be added to make it work, does anyone have any idea?  

Any clues gratefully accepted...

Alternate access mapping for NTLM authentication

September 17, 2015, 5:11 am

Hi there

We have SharePoint 2013 (Enterprise) with ADFS Authentication in our enterprise.

On the web application we have enabled ADFS as authentication Provider. (We use Host named Site Collections).

Our developers needs an alternate access mapping, because they uses NTLM authentication in CSOM.

Because of this, I have created an alternate Access mapping for the web application, that contains several site collections.

But how is it now possible to access these differents site collections in web application? When we open the alternate path, this opens the root site collection of the web application.

I guess there are additional steps to do?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards

Andreas

An error occurred during the "Generate Key" process. Please try again or contact your administrator.

Greetings,

I'm unable to generate a new key in the Secure Store Service Application (SSSA). I haven't faced this issue in my SharePoint 2010 farm.

I have a SA created for this service application, configured it as a managed account in CA and used it to setup the SSS. I am logged into the CA as a farm admin while I'm attempting to generate the new key. I have tried the following which haven't worked for me.

1) Added the sa as a farmadmin account and the SSSA managed account as local admins to both the application server and the database server.

2) Added the sa account to the administrators group of the SSSA and given it full control

3) Given the sa account all access to the SSSA database on the SQL server.

The error I am getting is 'An error occurred during the "Generate Key" process. Please try again or contact your administrator. '. In the event viewer I see the following error

'The Secure Store Service application Secure Store Service Application is not accessible. The full exception text is: User does not have permission to perform the operation.'

I have the August CU installed on this server. This is the first time I am trying to setup this manage application on a SharePoint 2013 environment using the same steps that have worked successfully in the SharePoint 2010 environment. I am open to ideas and suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am facing 401 errors in fiddler when navigating the SharePoint 2013 site. The resources for which i get 401 are css and image files in catalogs folder.

Is it normal behavior for the SharePoint or I can fix it? I googled and looks like it is normal behavior because we are using NT authentication for the site.

I am starting a course on MVA for SharePoint development (add-ins), and on that linkhttps://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/office/fp142379.aspx (refer by the course on mva) it is said that you can develop and test SharePoint add-ins using visual studio 2013 pro if you install the office Tools. I did that and there is no sign of add-ins under VISUAL C# as you ban see on the image below. Do we need a particular version of visual studio ?

The same applies to Manage Organization Properties. User profiles are working normally.

Hi Guys,

Since Microsoft decided to ship SP farm security patches with Windows updates i wonder what happen if I skip installing them?

For example see the screenshot below for KB3054861? I can see this KB related to the Excel services so i was thinking since I have a office web app farm (WAC) I really don't need to install this. Or i must do this?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Realm Under NameIdentifier from Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig doesn't change

September 17, 2015, 7:41 am

We are getting errors trying to run a High Trust App in SharePoint 2013. Everything points to issues with the SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer. When we run a Get-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer, the registeredissuername is correctly the IssuerID + '@' + Realm.

However, the output from Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig looks correct except for the Realm in the latter half of NameIdentifier. It's not even close to being in a correct format which we believe is what is causing us errors when trying to run the web-app. There's nothing useful in ULS viewer and removing the SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer and creating a new one still doesn't change the output of Get-SPSecurityTokenServiceConfig.

How can we either remove and recreate the config or edit the existing content?

Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft (Volume Licensing): SharePoint Licensing ?

Hello Forum,

We currently have an Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft (Volume Licensing), and in our own On-Premise data center we have SharePoint Server 2013 enterprise edition which we use as our own Intranet.

Our Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft (Volume Licensing) will end in a few weeks, and I have only two questions:

1) In case if our Enterprise Agreement with Microsoft (Volume Licensing) has ended and we did NOT renew it. Does it mean we have to re-license our current existing On-Premise SharePoint 2013 deployment?

2) Or, Is that that we are allowed to keep whatever we have in-house (Because, It has been already licensed previously), BUT, In case if we wanna upgrade to SharePoint 2016 or get other additional software, then, Those have to be licensed separately?

Please, Help me out to understand this !

Thank you !

User profile synchronization service failures

Hope somebody can help or give some advice on this issue:

This is a new farm with Sharepoint 2013 SP1 (15.0.4569.1506), I want to enable User profile feautures but having some troubles:

1) From Central Administration I have created a "My Site Host" with no issues

2) From Central Administration I have created a "User profile service application" with no issues

3) When starting "User profile synchronization service" from Central Administration the service shows "Starting" and then after a couple of minutes, goes back to "Stopped"

The account used to "start" the "User profile synchronization service" is the "DOMAIN\SP_Farm" account, this account was added to the Local Administrators group and the server was restarted before starting the service.

The errors being registered at the Event viewer are related with Forefront Identity Manager not being able to find stored procedure "RegisterService", I have already read several blogs stating that the problem is related with permissions to the Farm account at SQL level, but I have checked that the account has dbo_owner rights for the Sync DB.

I made a SQL Profiler trace while the Sync DB was being provisioned and I can see that all the tables and stored procedures are created correctly but I never see a "RegisterService" stored procedure being created.

At the services.msc console, both "Forefront Identity Manager Service" and "Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service" are "disabled" and using DOMAIN\SP_Farm" account as the "Log on as" account.

I noticed something weird when starting the "User profile synchronization service" from Central Admin, at event viewer the "Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service" changes from "disabled" to "autostart", but "Forefront Identity Manager Service" remains on "disabled"; if I manually change "Forefront Identity Manager Service" to "Automatic" and retry starting "User profile synchronization service" from Central Admin, the error related to "Could not find stored procedure: 'RegisterService'" gets registered.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

 Enrique.

Customizing SharePoint Designer 2013 install?

We are using SharePoint 2013 and our clients are running Office 2010 and IE9. Can't upgrade Office or IE installs at this point (can't explain), but users want/need the Drag-n-Drop capability of SharePoint.  We know that if you install SharePoint Designer with just the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support options enabled and everything else de-selected, the Drag-n-Drop works (proven on a couple of client PCs).  We wish to deploy that solution across our environment, but we simply cannot find any references to a way to do this using a scripted install or customized XML config.  It appears that Designer (x86or x64) can only be installed via the GUI, but that's not possible for our users.

Suggestions, please!

Central data reporting hub?

I have multiple groups within my company submitting data to my group.  

Forms of data are variable - word doc, excel, pdf, etc...

These data are tracked via manually extracting data and placing in a "master" spreadsheet.

However, keeping track and updating that spreadsheet is not reliable (it has switch hands multiple times).

Also, let's say that Groups A,B, and C all submit one piece of data for a single unit. That is, this one unit has 3 associated data files that need to be recorded and tracked as being submitted for that particular unit.

Now extrapolate that into hundreds of units with associated data files. 

Can sharepoint be set up in a way such that each group can select a particular Unit, upload the data they have for that unit, and then have a notification sent to my group?

How to deploy workflow with impersonate steps using solution package method

I am considering how to package my workflow (in SP2010 workflow platform) from test environment to production. The 2 environments are installed under different domain and separated.

After reading this article:
Understanding how to package and deploy workflow in SharePoint 2013

It seems I can easily export the workflow as WSP file, upload to production and activate it as solution.

However, my workflow is a globally reusable workflow. Also it contains several  impersonate steps. According to my understanding, the impersonate steps means the workflow will run on behalf of user who "Publish" it. (I read another article say it will run on behalf of user who "Last modify" it. I am not sure)

How can I specific who is the "impersonate user" using WSP file deployment method?

I recently got a new SharePoint Farm. The service applications have been all configured. Apparently the person installed SharePoint has run the farm configuration wizard.

My question is should I re-configure all service application? Will the service applications created by wizard cause problem in future?

My second question is that we have 2 application servers for load balance. Should all services have multiple machine instances running on both application servers?

Thanks.
