sharepoint and reporting server

$
0
0

We have built up a sharepoint farm with web front end server, app server, and database server for sharepoint 2013.

The database server only hosts all the dbs for sharepoints. No report server databases.

We also installed SQL reporting integrated with sharepoint service   on the sharepoint application server.

And then  install the SQL server reporting services add-in on the web frond end server.

We do this is we will later to have an exsiting sharepoint report server on a sharepoint 2007 migrated into the new 2013 farm.

But now I am little confused where is the report server databases, the databases like ReportServerIntegrated or ReportServerIntegratedTempdb.

I guess we should set up a new SQL instance for that, correct? It seems the old farm is like that.

So I guess what I should do is to Setup a new instance of SQL server with DB engine and Install reporting service integrated mode on the server, correct? Do I need to install any sharepoint components on the reporting server, like sharepoint central admin or sharepoint services on the SQL reporting server?

How the sharepoint server knows this is reporting server and connects to it so that we can deploy reports on sharepoint site?

Thanks,

Hi 

If we send external invitations from SharePoint online, the ext users will need to haveMicrosoft account to access the site. Is there a way that we can send invitation to ext user's organization account if they also have Office 365 subscription ? 

Company A send invitation to User B

User B's email is from the organization which also office 365 (SharePoint online)

(Now) user B will need to open an Microsoft account with the same email address to access Company A's SharePoint

can user B authenticate via his own office 365 and access Company A's SharePoint ?

Thanks

Upload to SharePoint library - Open with Explorer error

$

0

Consider the following scenario:

There is a host named site collectionhttps://intranet.com/team/hr that is accessible from both internal and external networks.

Members of HR Members SharePoint group can upload documents and work with them. Some of the users are working from home or other remote locations and do not use company assets to access the site.

User A logs on to the site from her office and uploads several documents and work with the site throughout the day. Next day User A works from home using her personal computer. User A opens the site and navigates to https://intranet.com/team/hr/library and clicks Open with Explorer button. Library is displayed in Windows Explorer. User A is able to read all data but when she uploads a document a message is presented :

User A tries to create a test txt file in the same library using Windows Explorer, however this fails with the following error:


Next day User A is showing this to her IT support in the office, however everything works without problems.

IT support is able to reproduce this error on any SharePoint site and for any user accessing libraries using Open wit Explorer or as a mapped drive from external network.

Short of advising users to use Internet Explorer to upload files using SharePoint interface, is there anything that could correct this problem?

Blob cache - out of sync

$

0

Hello,
We ran into a scenario where in a SharePoint 2013 farm (with June 2014 CU) one Web application’s BlobCache somehow got out of Sync (content DB was not restored). Showing old images - thumbnail shows the correct image but when you click and actual image loads it's older version of the image. Tried Flushing cache following this Technet article but the folder’s content in the file system seems to stay the same. Even though it says script ran successfully – anyone ran into this?

I've tested deleting a single image manually from the BlobCache folder and image from the picture library appear to work fine. 

Can I delete the BlobCache contents from the file system manually?

Appreciate any feedback!

Document Set - Documents Not Inheriting Metadata

$
0
0
I have created a document set and configured various columns as shared columns between the doc set and the documents within the set.  Not all of the documents are inheriting all of the metadata of the set.  I've re-run the timer job multiple times but there are still documents with missing metadata.  The fields that are missing vary - it isn't the same fields missing from document to document.  Has anyone else experienced this and if so, what is the resolution?  Thanks.


Edited to Add:  I'm not concerned about the document information panel within the document itself.  I'm referring to the metadata columns in the SharePoint list.  Some documents are inheriting all shared metadata just fine.  Others are only inheriting some columns - and there isn't a consistent pattern to which columns are not being inherited.

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade Service Pack 1 ( officeserversp2013-kb2880552-fullfile-x64-en-us ) . I am using Windows server 2008 R2 standard 64 bit.When I run the service pack as Administrator, I am getting the error as "Installation of this package failed".

I have checked that the folder and exe is not in read-only mode. The user running the service pack is the Admin. I am not seeing any error in eventvwr.

How to fix this?

Kerberos configured but authenticating falling back to NTLM?

$
0
0

Hi All,

I have a SharePoint 2013 farm with two load balanced WFEs.

I configured Kerberos (steps below), but when I look at the event logs, I see users authenticating via "ntlmssp" as opposed to Kerberos:

Set the SPN for the web application app pool account:

setspn -S HTTP/sharepointcontent.domain.com DOMAIN\spwebapp

setspn -S HTTP/sharepointcontent DOMAIN\spwebapp

setspn -S HTTP/sharepoint.domain.com DOMAIN\spwebapp

setspn -S HTTP/sharepoint DOMAIN\spwebapp

sharepointcontent.domain.com is the web app url
sharepoint.domain.com is the root site collection url on the web app

On the WFE servers, enabled delegation to any service (did not do this on other server)

On the authentication providers for the web application, enabled Negotiate (Kerberos)

Within IIS for the web application on the WFEs, I've checked the authentication settings (kernel mode protection, order of providers)

However, users are authenticating via NTLM? The only thing I can think of is I miss SPNs for the machine FQDNs.

lync in Sp2013

Hi,

I have 3 webapplication in SP2013 Farm . I am seeing lync status in CA ~/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx but lync status is not displayed/visible in the existing two web applications. When I created new web application its showing lync status. Not sure what could be the issue why it is not showing in an existing web application.  Can anyone share what could be issues with lync in SharePoint. Is it problem with UPS ? OR is it problem with users at site collection Vs users information list probably both of these are not sync or what?? 

pls throw any light on this would be a great help.

SharePoint Online Powershell Migration - Migration job exceeds the total failure threshold '100' during run execution

Hi all - we are running some huge migrations to SharePoint Online using the Powershell Migration Libraries e.g.

New-SPOMigrationPackage

Submit-SPOMigrationJob

While migrating 1000 000s of files we are getting this error which cancels the entire operation. 

[4/5/2016 6:55:58 AM] [Error] Migration job exceeds the total failure threshold '100' during run execution. 
[4/5/2016 6:55:58 AM] [FatalError] [-2146232832] [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException] [Operation canceled.] 

Is there anyway to get around this threshold as it is surely expected to have more than a few file access or other issues in a migration of a million or more files?

Any help urgently appreciated

First time going to a site where I do not have access and clicking the back button I'm returned to the root site instead of the site I started from

Greetings,

I have SharePoint 2013 enterprise using ADFS for authentication.  I have an issue where the first time going to a site where you do not have access and clicking the back button you're returned to the root site instead of the site you started from.

ie:

1) at site http://www.sharepoint.com/sites/finance/home.aspx

2) browse to http://www.sharepoint.com/sites/finance/private/home.aspx

3) receive a message: you do not have access to this site  ((oops went to the wrong location - I'll hit the back button))

4) click the browser back button

5) get returned to http://www.sharepoint.com/pages/home.aspx

This only happens the first time browsing to a site that I do not have rights to, after this I can browse to the same site and hit the browser back  button and return to the correct site, or any other site that I do not have access to.

Any ideas as to why this happens?  Ideas of where to start looking?

Thanks

Sharepoint 2013: credentials for wrong server/site collection requested on document open

$
0
0

Hi,

We have just upgraded to SharePoint 2013 and a couple of our users have reported a problem opening documents. When they click on the document in the browser, the application (say, Excel) opens and then they are prompted for credentials - but while the link as displayed in the status bar of the browser is in the form of:

http://ourserver/sites/site/library/document.xls

The credentials box states it requires credentials for ourserver.full.qualified.domain

If the user cancels the credentials check, the document opens, followed by another credentials request, this time for the site collection for the SharePoint central admin function. Cancelling this request leaves the document open but any attempt at checkout will have failed and the document cannot be saved.

It only happens for a very small percentage of users and I've tried clearing the credentials manager and making sure that the local intranet sites option is set to auto-detect. A user who cannot edit documents cannot edit them on the PC of someone who can - the problem follows them - but if a user who can edit documents uses a failing PC, it works fine.

Has anyone seen anything like this before? And can anyone suggest where I can look for a solution?

Thanks,

Tony Spratt.

Site Template URL Tokens

$

I am developing a custom site with its own Search Page for a fully self-contained experience. 

I am curious if there is a token I can use on the Search Settings for "<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_customResultsPageButton">Send queries to a custom results page URL."</label>

Where I can have the page "/SitePages/Search.aspx" but have it go to the current site every time, so when I deploy a template, search will work immediately

I tried something like

~site/SitePages/Search.aspx

<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_customResultsPageButton">But nothing works unless I hard-code the current site in the Settings.  Is that something I am just going to have to live with or is there a token I can use?</label>

Thanks

<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_customResultsPageButton"></label>
