Owner of site can't see list of permissions when using the Share dialog

Hi,

We have a flat Sharepoint structure with a site created from a template using the standard/default permissiongroups( Members, visitors and Owners as Sharepoint groups). I have shared the site with permission set "Owner" to a user.

When that user logs in and share the site, he can't se the "list of permissions"(Show options in the bottom of the dialog) - just a dropdown list on right with "edit, read". Why is that? I wan't him to see the SharePoint groups "members, owners, visitors".

When I check the ownership of the groups, they are owned by the group "owners".

We have one special case on the site, on the website-pages-library I have removed inheritance, and made the Members-group read-only, so that they can't add/edit pages.

Please help :-)

Best regards,

     Lars Siden

Hi All,

I am working on Sharepoint 2007 migration to 2013. I have been facing two issues.

After Migration to 2013 domain users are not able to login because they are not claim based. I need script that will migrate all existing users to claim based. I have followed following script for migration to claim based

$wa = Get-SPWebApplication urlofsite
$acc = "domain\farm username"
$arguments = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebApplication+SPMigrateUserParameters

$contentDb = $wa.ContentDatabases[0]
$arguments.AddDatabaseToMigrate($contentDb)
$wa.MigrateUsersToClaims($acc, $true, $arguments)

But it is not working. I have to add User manually into User Permission from sharepoint administration site. I want a script that converts all users to claim based o atleast some one knows about database structure that can guide me.


Can any one help me. or Let me know if some one needs more clarification of my question.

Users deleted from AD are not deleted in SharePoint User Profile Application

Hello everyone,

I have deleted some users from Active Directory but they are not deleted in User Profile Service. I run both Full Synchronization and the My Site Cleanup Job with no luck. These profiles still exist in Active Profiles but they are marked as Deleted Objects (in Distinguished Name). I tried a few things that helped others with similar problems but it doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas why they are not deleted? Is there another timer job that needs to run?

Thanks!

Hello everybody

I hope someone can give me a Suggestion.

We have Websites with Search Result an Content Search Webparts to find list items and documents with specific tags.

This works good, but if a user closes a list item (with the Close Button) he is send to the page with all the list items, (\lists\Name\Allitems.aspx), but the User should not see all list items. 

After closing the list item the users should go back to the site with the Search web Parts. Can i manipulate the Url behind the Close Button or is there a other Way?

greetings Anton

Hi,

I need to move my SharePoint 2013 farm to a new server and then discard the old server. I have followed your article on how to put a server in a farm but I can't open the page at all. I need to be able to see exactly what I had on the old server. Which is the best way to achieve that?

FYI

New Server is exactly the same as old with the same version of SP 2013 installed

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Question about SharePoint Server 2013 Updates

Hi everyone! Currently I have a dilemma in which I'm having trouble figuring out. We have SharePoint 2013 Server on our Web Front End. We currently only have one Web Front End and one SQL server box. The environment we have houses both SharePoint 2013 and SharePoint 2010 experience site collections. The 2010 experience versions are on its own separate web application. I noticed that we only have up to March 2015 cumulative update. When I attempted to install the next CU for April 2015 SharePoint Server 2013 it indicated that the operating system "The update is not applicable to your computer" or something to that affect, honestly I didn't take the exact message down but that was the message from what I remember. I even tried to run it as administrator with no success. I noticed though, that when I went to the "Manage Servers in this Farm" it showed the WFE having a status of "Upgrade Available". I haven't attempted to click on the link there to perform whatever action it is looking to perform because I'm afraid it will also "Upgrade" all of the SharePoint 2010 experience versions we have in our environment to the 2013 versions. Personally I don't have any issue with this but this is a company and we need to follow protocol such as change management (some of you will know about that). My questions are, does this in fact upgrade the 2010 site collections automatically to 2013 versions and is this the reason that I cannot install the newer cumulative updates? I've attached the picture to show you the page I'm seeing this on. Thanks for your help in advance :)

Hi Guys

I have a SharePoint 2013 farm in production and I would like to change the topology of search. Is this possible without disrupting or removing the search index?

Also, is there any guidance on the  best practises regarding which search roles go on which servers? (I.E. can a search component be mixed with something else?)

Thanks

I am trying to move a web app DB from dev server to QA server. This is SP 2013 and I am moving from one farm to other. 

My webapp on dev is http://portaldev and the DB is DBDev with NTLM authentication. On my QA I have a web app called http://portalQA  with DB name XYZ and this one is set up with kerberos authentication. 

Steps followed

1. Restore the DBDev to QA SQL server

2. Detach/Remove DB XYZ from QA webapp http://portalQA using central admin. 

3. Using central admin ->Add content DB I have attached the  DBDev to http://portalQA. 

Now I can open the web app http://portalQA with only system account and no other credentials work. I have also tried to attach the DB using powershell mount-SPContentDatabase with no luck. I have also tried to create a brand new webapp using the restored DB and I still face the same issue. I want to existing web app because it has all the DNS entries and everything.  Any ideas why no user can login except system account. 

Please help

AD group membership import

Hello,

We have SharePoint 2013 SP1 (15.0.4571.1502) on-prem.  I'm trying to import user and groups from our AD, and then create audiences based on AD group membership (as per MS documentation).  We're importing users and groups from AD via SharePoint Active Directory Import.  The user profiles are being imported, but their group membership seems to be absent.

I've created an audience (CA > Manage service applications > User Profile Service Application > Manage Audiences), but when I try to add an Audience Rule and use Operand 'User' and Operator 'Member Of', the browse for Value always returns no results and thus I can't add people to my audience based on AD groups.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

Assigning Web Application Policy Permissions Through Trusted Provider Group

Has anyone ever set Web Application Policy permission using a group from a Trusted Provider such as Okta or ADFS?

We are currently using OKTA as a trusted identity provider and I created a group and added users to it.  I then assign that group to the Web Application User Policy and give it Full Control permissions however that doesn't seem to work.  If I assign it to a user it works fine, but anyone in the group doesn't seem to be honored.

Timer Job Priority - 15 minutes with 0% Progress

I have a custom timer job that that I usually run manually from the Job Definitions page on Central Administration when required. Once I run it, it stays in Running with "0% Progress" stage for around 10-15 minutes and then slowly the percentage increases and it completes. Does this mean that the timer job is in some sort of a queue for 15 minutes? If it is waiting to start for 15 minutes, is there a way to start it instantaneously by somehow increasing the priority?

When I run the same timer job on a different farm (single server), it starts completes in less than 5 minutes.

Now on SharePoint 2013 site - Total SQL Duration is too high at 10-12 seconds - how to reduce this please? This is causing site to load very slowly.

SP and SQL Servers are all good, more than enough RAM and CPU.

Any help will be appreciated.

Migrating user permissions when switching from Windows to ADFS authentication, Multiple domains, SharePoint 2013

December 3, 2015, 12:16 pm

I am setting a client up to use ADFS authentication, rather than AD. I have it working pretty well at this point. However, I need to migrate the permissions from the AD versions of the users, to the ADFS versions. I found a script here (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/d6c31ee4-c341-4ebd-b5b1-20b8fb918659/ad-to-adfs-user-migration-movespuser-error) that gets the auth provider and suffix, and places them around the user name to convert it to UPN, but that won't work in this situation, unfortunately.

Users are coming in from three different domains. I would probably need the script to figure out what domain the user is coming from, and deciding what to append based on that. Right now, we are using UPN as the identifier, but maybe it would help to switch to SAM Account name?
