SharePoint 2013 User profile photos / pictures import from AD using AD Import

$
0
0

Hi everyone

I've done a bit of research and it looks like there's no easy/ straight forward way to import user pictures from AD usingAD Import. All posts around this assume that you're using SharePoint User Sync (FIM). I might be wrong.

Has someone been able to achieve this?

If it can't be done through configuration, I'm wondering if, as last resort, I need to write a script that downloads user photos in to a fileshare and then upload them into SharePoint UPS using Powershell.

Any more pointers?

Thanks

Undeclare a record as step of a retention policy?

$
0
0

Hi,

I am starting to use retention policies and doing some testing.

I created a policy with several retention stages and applied it to a contenttype. I have a working teamsite and a record centre. When the content organizer moves the document to its appropriate library and folder it gets automatically declared as a record.

Now, I want the record to be deleted after a certain period which is the end of its lifetime. It seems that the record cannot be undeclared which blocks deletion. 

How can this be done as a policy?

Thanks

PowerPivot Gallery Thumbnail - show X red sign after scheduled refresh

$

0

recently a customer of mine has created a powerpivot gallery and uploaded some excel reports. when it first rendered using excel services, the thumbnail can be seen in the gallery with the preview of the charts and table.

but after it runs on scheduled refreshed at every 3.15pm, the thumbnail will show an error X icon. 

we noticed that there is this error in the logs whenever the scheduled refresh happens

05/31/2016 15:16:53.76         GallerySnapshot.exe (0x718C)                    0x6730        PowerPivot Service                    Report Gallery                        00000        High           An error occurred: 'Terminating capture process: 'Illegal redirection to resources outside of the web application: 'res://ieframe.dll/navcancl.htm'''.

what we have done so far:-

1. grant the excel service account as local admin.

2. add the site into trusted site

3. Disabled loopback check 

anything that we missed out causing it not able to render the preview after refresh?

Large Files and Drop-Off Library

$

I am working on an issue with Drop-Off Library on a SharePoint 2013 instance for a customer.  I am submitting a file to a Drop-Off Library via Submit File in a SharePoint 2010 Workflow.

The submission to Drop-Off Library fails on occasion, and it appears to be happening when the file is larger than average, but not excessively large.  For example, two Word documents in docx format that exceed 50 MB consistently fail to be submitted to the Drop-Off Library and Content Organizer returns an "UnknownError" status.

Based on the fact that it only occurs on larger files, it seems like a timeout issue, maybe.

Before I go digging into ULS, has anyone ever run into this before?  Is there a better place to start looking besides ULS?

Thanks

I just configured the app store in my SharePoint 2013 on-prem farm and everything is configured according to the link below...

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161236.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

However, when I try to add an app, I see this error...

Sorry, there was something wrong with the download. Try adding it again.

I have checked the Regional settings for my site and I made sure that the regional settings in the app store matched it.  The App Management service and Subscription Settings service are running.  The Service Applications are configured and look fine.  I'm running the April 2016 CU.  I'm running out of ideas.  What am I missing?

User Profile Property Assistant Mapping Active Directory

Hello SharePoint Gurus - I am trying to map User Profile properties with Active Directory attribute. I can see only "assistant" field to map. To my surprise this is not the correct attribute. A/D msExchAssistantName attribute shows proper Assistant Name in Outlook. So, when I tried to find msExchAssistantName, I can not map with Assistant UP property. I do not want to create a custome property and map with msExchAssistantName because I know when existing Assistant UP poperty is populated properly, Assistant would have permissions to manage and update boss's profile.

Please help.

Thanks & Regards,

I need to install two language packs in order to enable MUI for a customer.  I wanted to understand the impact of installing Language Packs based on Microsoft documentation.

Does installation of Language Packs require an outage for SharePoint?  Is it necessary to re-run SharePoint Configuration Wizard following installation?

What is the best practice for installing a Language Pack and is there any gotcha's or things I should make sure of when installing?

Thanks
