Hi All,

I created one SharePoint site collection in SP2013. When I'm trying to open that site in Internet Explorer when entering the credentials got a message

"Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you."

But same URL works on the other browsers. In IE it's not working after deleting the cookies also.

Hello,

 I am getting errors while creating a non-HA SP farm from in Azure Portal based on the provided template.

It concerns the SQl virtual machine and I am getting this error:

Hi Team, 

My current SharePoint 2013 Farm  build number  15.0.4569.1000(Sp1*). I want to upgrade my Farm to 15.0.4753.1000 (Sep CU 2015). 

Here is my Question. 

1. Can I directly (Skipping Other CU) Apply Sep 2015 CU (Uber pack ) ?

2. How to roll back if something goes wrong ?

Note : Application and Web servers VMs and SQL Server is Physical Server.

Thanks

Hey Folks--

Our SharePoint developer just resigned and his duties have been transferred to me. I have all of the access permissions I need to administer our site collection, but I've got a situation that doesn't seem to be behaving according "the book" and can use your help.

We're running SharePoint 2013 Enterprise on an internal SP farm to host our intranet. I have a site where I need to utilize the web part categories of Business Data and Filters. I have activated the site feature of SharePoint Server Enterprise Site features (Features such as Visio Services, Access Services, and Excel Services Application, included in the SharePoint Server Enterprise License), but even though I've given it plenty of time (over the weekend) the Business Data and Filter categories still are not available when trying to add a web part.

On a previous site I needed these categories, and our developer enabled them and they are available. I don't know what he did on the backend, but simply enabling the feature within the site settings isn't working.

Where else should I be looking to enable these features?

Thanks,

This is not really a problem, I just want to know if this is true so I can understand

Consider this scenario, this is in a dev environment:

Team Site at a top level

Create a sub-site based on Enterprise Search Center template (I don't think that is best practice, but I am just experimenting)

I enable Publishing on the sub site so that the theme and colors are pushed down from top site

When you enable publishing, a Document library is created

it appears that if you put any documents in the library that is on the search sub site, it is not included in the search results or not crawled.  I checked the settings on that library an it is enabled to be included in search results.

It just appears to me that, by default, content in an Enterprise Search Center is not included no matter what, which I guess kind of makes sense logically because it is a center for searching content and not necessarily a place where you put content.

Is it true that Enterprise Search Center or standard Search Center sites are just always excluded from the search index?

Again - this is just for clarification I would not intend to implement this exactly this way, nor do I want to actually store content in an Enterprise Search Center site

Thanks

This is a migration from 2010 to 2013. We've successfully taken our 2010 database (one site collection, the root), updated it to claims and mounted it to 2013 with Powershell, and run the UI upgrade.

We then used a third party tool to create 6 more site collections, and split apart the root site collection into those new collections (each in a separate database).

Now I want to do an incremental - I want to drop (& delete in sql) the current root site collection database, take the current 2010 production database, update to claims, and remount it for the 2013 root site collection.

But does that affect any of my other site collections? I'm not sure if all those site collection definitions care if the root data all of a sudden disappears and reappears - all the GUIDs in there would be the same....  we've always been a one site collection/database shop so I'm not sure about any interactions between the root of the webapp and the other site collectoins.

We made a SharePoint 2013 web application with server name like http://servername. A F5 load balancing has been done on our two front end server with a DNS entry like contoso.com. Since it has been load balanced a VIP has been created with IP different from server name.

We would like the users to enter with address http://contoso.com with no reference to our server name anywhere. How best to do it. Do we apply alternate access mapping to this?  If so how best to configure it?

This could be a bit much to ask but lets see.  I have a choice column with all the months of the year which is completed when a Document Set is created.  From this Choice Column, I want a Date field to be populated (calculated column I'm guessing).  So, for example:

•Choice Field is called "Month"
•If March is selected from "Month" - set Date field 01/03/YEAR
•I want YEAR to be auto-populated for the current year

Happy to use Calculated Column or SPD. 

Hi,

I am facing a rather weird issue. Some Information on our Systems:

SharePoint 2013 Enterprise on premise

IE11

Office 2010

Some of our SharePoint Users cannot drag and drop documents from libraries into mails (Outlook).

I found out, that the IE Add On "SharePoint DragDownload Control" is completely missing as Add on and can therefore not be enabled. From previous articles I learned that this Add-On should automatically be there if you have IE 10 or higher.

How can I get to this Add On?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I am trying to start the User profile synchronization service on my development environment. I have followed and verified all pre-requisites to start the UPS service but keeps giving me exception. I have searched internet for the error but no use.

Hi,

Is there a way to set up gathering stats on a particular resource in SharePoint? For example, a video located on a particular team site?

thanks,

Sherazad

HI :

One of my resource needs to work for a client "abc" site. 

We are running in to some issues with getting her setup for development and wanted to see if you can provide some inputs/guidance.

In order to get her access to the abc Dev Instance, we first tried getting her access to a abc's VDI (Virtual Desktop) as the abc SharePoint Dev Instance is only available if you are on the abc network. However, she is not able to install SharePoint Developer on the VDI due to access restrictions. We checked on this several times and getting the software installed seems to be out of the question given strict "abc" guidelines of VDI access and usage.

So, the second approach we are now thinking about is getting a backup of the current abc SharePoint site and installing it on a our internal Sandbox. This engagement is only for the next 4-5 weeks so we need a quick solution for this. 

Could you help me understand if ours is the right approach. Can we access a server through citrix ? I mean can we work on visual studio, SP, etc.. through citrix ?

What would be the right approach ?

Thank you !

in my Doc Library i have to constantly hit 1-30, 31-60, 61-90, etc.

Is there a way to just show all files by default? 

We recently migrated from SharePoint 2010 Foundation to SharePoint 2013. The content database was moved and now one site collection won't open. I can access the site settings and the subsites but not the homepage. I found this log with this information and I don't know what to do with it.

Hi All,

 I am adding a new column to a document library.

1. Whenever i upload a zip file to that document library (Note. This is other than office document) i see the newly added column in the upload form.

2. But if i upload the Office document (For Ex. PPT), i don't see that newly added column in the upload form. But if i open that document from sharepoint, and edit it, the "Document Information Panel" is showing that newly added column.

3. Then i enabled the content types for that Doc Lib, i see my new column in that Document content type, but still i dont see that in upload form or "Edit Properties" form.

4. Now comes a different behavior. I added an existing site content type (Form Type) say Form1. If i now try to upload an office document on the content type drop down i see document as the default option, which is correct, but i still dont see my newly added column there.

 - I changed the content type drop down to my newly added "Custom Content Type" Form1 and changed that back to Document, strange now i see that newly added column listed.

I am not sure whats the mistake am doing or what's wrong. Can someone help me out to have the newly added custom column listed on the upload form for office documents?

Thanks in Advance

This sql insert starts and runs for 48 hours and stops fills up space on my tempdb log file.  I don't know how long it would have run if we let it.  Maybe 15 GB.  Maybe forever.   The last time it was 14 GB and growing when it shut down my site.  (let's treat the running out of space issue separately.  That's being addressed separately) 

Judging by the reference to IncrementalSearchScope, it's related to search.  But the entire content database is only 12 GB and incremental crawls take about 3 minutes.  Also, this database is primarily read only.  There's very little being updated throughout the day.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Hi

I am seeking for comment /advice/suggestion on how to setup the following scenario. 

I have a SP 2013 environment that facing external network (Internet).

SharePoint installed in this isolated domain (dedomain) with no trust to any other domains.

Internal network,  I have 4 domains Dom1, Dom2, Dom3, Dom4  with 2 ways trust from Dom1 to each of the other dom2, dom3, dom4 domains

I have setup ADFS - Trust identity provider and reverse proxy  for Dom1 and dedomain.

everything is working,  users in Dom1 domain can get authenticated and access SharePoint in the isolated domain either from internal or external network.

Now,  I need to see what I will need to setup Dom2, Dom3, and Dom4 domains so that users from these domains can also get authenticate and access SharePoint.

my question is that since  Dom1 have already 2 ways trust with Dom2, Dom3 and Dom4, do  I still need to setup ADFS for them regardless of the trusts, or with the trusts already established, is there another way to get these domains users authenticated and access SharePoint?

Thanks in advance for any comment, advice , suggestion
