The dreaded 5566 error!!

To my fellow SharePoint 2013 Engineers,

We've run into an interesting issue and wanted to get some advice to find a fix. As the title goes, custom list forms built using InfoPath Designer are giving the 5566 error. However, this only happens when we access the custom URL. If access the original servername URL then the form works like a charm. So here is some more information which includes the fixes we have tried plus our environment information-

1) We have four WFE servers which are load balanced hence we have added the 127.0.0.1 with site URL on the host file of each server.

2) We also added the DisableLoopbackCheck reg entry to the Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa and set the value as 1 on each WFE server.

3) The custom URL which is used to access the sites is the default site on AAM.

4) The custom URL has been added to the IIS site's bindings.

5) On Central Administration>General Application Settings>InfoPath Forms Services, in the Configure InfoPath Forms Services Web Service Proxy, we enabled both the 'Enable InfoPath Forms Services Web service Proxy' and the 'Enable InfoPath Forms Services Web Service Proxy for user forms'

6) In Configure InfoPath Forms Services-

 - Allow users to browser-enable form templates - Checked

 - Render form templates that are browser-enabled by users - Checked

- Default data connection timeout : 50000

- Maximum data connection timeout: 90000

-Data connection response size - 60000

- Require SSL for HTPP authentication to data sources - unchecked

- Allow embedded SQL authentication - Unchecked

- Allow user form templates to use... - Checked

- Allow cross-domain data access for user... - Checked

- Number of postbacks per session: 75

- Number of actions per postback - 200

- Active sessions show be terminated after: 1440

- Maximum size of user data: 32768

I might have provided waaaaay more information than you need, but I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

Remove Anonymous User Access

October 23, 2015, 9:33 am

Hi! I have been managing our SharePoint site for just a couple weeks now and all of the sudden on a single page, the Anonymous Users group appeared in the permissions list. This site has unique permissions and I do not see the Anonymous User group on the parent site. My ribbon does not have an Anonymous Users Access button (as seen below). I recently added some external users to our site and am worried this caused this Anonymous Users access. 

1. With this Anonymous User Group and Permission Levels set at Entire Website, can anyone with the URL view this site?! This particular part of the site should only be INTERNAL with the exception to the four people I allowed external access. 

2. How do I remove the anonymous user? I have looked at my Site Collection Features and the Limited-access user permission lockdown mode IS ACTIVE. Also, there is a lot of content on the site and resetting the site is not really a viable option. 

 



Thank you for any feedback. It is greatly appreciated!

The server was unable to save the form at this time (Permissions)

Hey SharePoint Fam,

I have a weird issue that I thought should work within SP2013 by default.  I always thought you could easily assign a user permissions to one list within a site and they could edit without having any access to anything else in the site.  Is this not the case or do users have to at least have read permissions on site as well.

Have a user whom has no access to a site at all but has been granted contributor permissions to a document library but is unable to edit properties of the document after it is loaded.  Can totally add the document but unable to add metadata to the file. The error "

The server was unable to save the form at this time" just shows up.

I go into the site settings and grant the user read permissions to the site and everything works 100% correctly but definitely don't want user to have access to all the list/libraries that are inheriting the site permissions.   Are you not able to have unique permission on a list where user can only access that one list in a site?

Thanks N Advance

SharePoint 2013 FBA LDAP - Cached Password?

Hi,

I implemented FBA LDAP authentication on a SharePoint 2013 site as described in the lab provided by Microsoft (can't add links at the moment for some reason...)

Everything works perfectly.

But, when I change a user password, the old password still works!

Logged out, closed browser - nothing

When I reset the password again, to a 3rd password, the 1st one stops working, but the 2nd password works as well as the 3rd

It only happens with this site. Other sites that are windows authentication based "catch" only the real password

Has anyone seen anything like this??

Removing faulty features in the farm

I am using the SharePoint Feature Administration and Clean Up Tool from CodePlex to remove faulty features from my 2013 farm after migration from 2010 farm.  While the tool does a great job of removing the faulty feature from some sites, I get some errors for some of the other sites.  Below are the errors.  Can someone explain what this means and what I can do to remove them.  I'd really like to clean up the farm.  I'm doing this in a test environment in preparation of production migration.

Most of the faulty features found - renders the following error when I prompt to remove it:

2015/10/23 16:47:46 - Exception removing feature 75a0fea7-b0ef-434e-90d6-ce997d970564 fromhttp://webapp1.company.com/sites/sitecollection1/web1 -- Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Here is a rare success for the same feature:

2015/10/23 16:47:45 - Success removing feature 75a0fea7-b0ef-434e-90d6-ce997d970564 fromhttp://webapp1.company.com/sites/sitecollection1/web2

SharePoint 2013 upgrade gets stuck in second run - first time goes smoothly - we tried several times - why?

Hi there,

I am testing our SP 2013 upgrade process - if I do it on a new server with fresh SP 2013 installed - everything goes smoothly. 
However if I delete the existing web application and re-attempt the upgrade - the Visual Upgrade part gets stuck and takes 20 times longer than it does the first time.

I have repeated this 3 times and everytime Visual Upgrade gets stuck the second time. It does complete successfully, it just takes 20 times longer.

Why? Any thoughts?

Thanks so much.

Compatibility range mismatch between web server and database

Hi -

I applied the October CU to my SP2013 environment.   It was previously on SP1 (15.0.4569.1000).

Everything appears to work fine, except I see the message below in the application event logs. 

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.

When I run (Get-spfarm).buildversion I can see the correct build version.   I also ran the PSCONFIG command below.   Our environment has 3 site collections.   We upgraded two of them, and left the other one without upgrading the site collection.  Would that be the cause of this message?

PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures

SPCA Load Balancing using F5 appliance not working

October 25, 2015, 5:44 am

We have three-tier SharePoint 2013 farm with HA.  There are six servers (2 WFE, 2 Search/CA and 2 SQL).  The WFE and Search/CA servers are load-balanced through F5 appliance.

My issue is that I am unable to properly load-balance the Central Admin (CA) Servers.  The CA is hosted on port 7777 and I am able to access these servers, example http://caserver01:7777 or http://caserver02:7777, individually.  However, I am unable to access them on its virtual IP / DNS name, e.g. http://192.168.2.23:7777 or  http://caserver:7777.  The load balancing works fine on port 80 (default IIS page) without any issues.

Port 7777 has been allowed on the F5 appliance, as well. I have also configured AAM with custom URL (http://csserver:777) within CA AAM collection.  I also created additional A records entry in DNS for URL http://spca.sitename.com:7777 and configured public URL in AAM, when the former did not work.

I have also gone through Spencer Harbar's blog http://www.harbar.net/articles/spca.asp on SPCA, but I think it mainly talks about NLB and not on appliance based LBs such as F5. 

It may be either the configuration in F5 appliance or the AAM.  My network admin says his configuration is fine (on F5).  Then the issue may be how the AAM is configured, but not finding a solution for this issue.

Thanks,

LM

Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 encountered an error during setup

(the html editor over here is a pain you know where - not even bold text is working...)

Every time I try to install SP 2013 SP1 on my WS 2012 R2 Update virtual machine the installer dies.

NOTE: I can reproduce this any time. Both the SharePoint 2013 (including SP1) .iso as well as the WS 2012 R2 (including Update) .iso are fresh copies out of the MSDN library.

The installation fails where the installer tries to install the binaries. No configuration wizard yet. I made sure all the prerequisites are there. The PreRequisitesInstaller.exe reboots the virtual machine several times (twice) and then it is all set.

UPDATE: Installing office prior to the sharepoint installation had no effect (solution was suggested  here).

UPDATE: Installing all windows updates (for Windows Server and Office client applications) didn't help either... same error.

UPDATE: I made sure my windows server and sharepoint server images are exactly those you can currently find on MSDN. SHA1 hashes match.

Hi All,

I have been trying to setup SharePoint Hybrid and have some doubts. Could anyone who have experienced clear please 

For Identity Management , We have 2 below options

1. Dir Synch with Password

2. ADFS with SSO

We can use both in all topology (inbound/outbound/both way)

Doubt 1 -  Can we use only Dir Synch with Password without setting up ADFS  in outbound or inbound ?

Doubt 2 - Do we need to setup both option for inbound/outbound ?

Doubt 3 - If my On premiere setup is ready with AD then I need Public internet registered domain ( something.com) which can be assigned in AD as a UPN ?  

Please reply thanks...
