I am reinstalling workflow manager 1.0 in the sharepoint server 2013. I have 3 servers that hosts workflow manager. I was able to configure a farm sucessfully in first server, then when i attempted to join the server 2 and 3 i encounter following issue:

  1. Starting
  2. validating input and configuration parameters
  3. installing auto-generated certificate
  4. Unable to obtain private key file name for certificate with thumbprint

I am not sure what is the server looking for here. Any assistance would be helpful

Here is the log i receive from the error

Receiving Windows failed login alerts from a non existing AD account on a SharePoint Server

$

Receving several logon failures from below account.

Account Domain: m 

Failure Reason: Unknown user name or bad password

Status: 0xc000006d  Sub Status: 0xc0000064 (user name does not exist)

Workstation Name: SharePoint server   Source Network Address: SharePoint server  

Source Port: 63247

Upon checking we see that this account is not present in AD and also had checked the Task Scheduler and services, none of the jobs are using this account.

The alert was being triggered from OWSTIMER.exe.

We performed below changes.

  1. Cleared config cache on the server
  2. Updated the service account password for SharePoint Timer service

Upon doing the above, we didn’t receive any logon failures from m\_. After a day, we got same issue reported back.

We performed below changes again.

  1. Cleared config cache on the server
  2. Ran PSConfig on the server

Upon doing the above, we didn’t receive any logon failures from m\_. After a day, we got same issue reported back.

One observation we have is that the below Timer job is failing after a day of performing the above steps. We see that once we ran PSConfig.exe, the below Timer job succeeds, but later after a day it fails again.

Job Title : **** User Profile Service - User Profile ActiveDirectory Import Job

Job Description : Imports objects from Active Directory into Profile Database

Error Message : An update conflict has occurred, and you must re-try this action. The object UserProfileApplication Name=**** User Profile Service was updated by Domain\"farm account", in the OWSTIMER (5892) process, on machine “SP SERVER”. View the tracing log for more information about the conflict.

Please provide your thoughts. Thanks in advance!

My Site creation failure for user

Dear Experts,

this one is on SP 2013 SP1 On-Premise, Version: 15.0.4841.1000 

I am getting Event-ID 5187 and same Error in ULS-Log while hitting "About Me":

The strange thing is, that the URL is two times there, concatenated!

My Site creation failure for user mydomain\Ronny.Lewandowski' for site url 'https://sharepoint-mysite.mydomain.de/https://sharepoint-mysite.mydomain.de/personal/ronny_lewandowski'. The exception was: Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.PersonalSiteCreateConfigurationException: A failure was encountered while attempting to create the site, wildcard inclusion used to create personal sites does not exist.
   at Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfile.<>c__DisplayClass2.<CreateSite>b__0()
   at Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SecurityContext.RunAsProcess(CodeToRunElevated secureCode)
   at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(WaitCallback secureCode, Object param)
   at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(CodeToRunElevated secureCode)
   at Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfile.CreateSite(String strRequestUrl, Boolean bCollision, Int32 overrideCompatLevel, Int32 lcid).

The message "wildcard inclusion used to create personal sites does not exist" cannot be correct because we have that Managed Path under My-Site-Host:

Self-Service Site Creation Management is "On" and Managed Path is set:

My-Site-Host has an own Web-Application.

Permission-Policy has been added to Everyone (Create SubSites).

UPS is up and running (Use SharePoint Profile Synchronization).

UPS-User Property "Photo" has been mapped to "thumbnailPhoto". (Could that causing this issue?)

UPS is syncing fine, Search is working perfect.

Does anybody run into the same issue and can help?

With Kind Regards, Ronny

Migration to SharePoint 2016 - Geo Location Field

$
0
0

Hi,

I've just done a ContentDB migration from SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint 2016 (there was very little content in the 2013 farm) and a quirk I've immediately noticed is that a Geo Location field I'd created in the 2013 farm, is there, but missing it's content.

Anybody else experienced this? It's not a massive deal to me, just some annoying data entry, but for others it might be a bigger deal.

Looking for some solutions for the community going forward, perhaps tools like DocAve or Sharegate handle this, or any idea why a ContentDB didn't handle this?

Set home page in Sharepoint Online site

hi!

I'm going to migrate sharepoint 2010 sites (about 300) to sharepoint online. After that I'm going to need to change home page of every site to different (the same name for every site). Of course it is possible by clicking "set as home page" in browser or with sharepoint designer, but doing it 300 times will take a bit too much time.

So, the question is, do You know any methods of doing it different way, to automate it? I've already asked MS support, and Sharepoint management shell for sharepoint online does provide any function for that ( https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161364.aspx ), but I was redirected to try here.

To simplify my story, my case in few steps:

1. Migrate sites from ShP2010 to ShP Online

2. On every site (~300) change home page from:

https://sth.sharepoint.com/sites/migration/EXAMPLE/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/default.aspx

to:

https://sth.sharepoint.com/sites/migration/EXAMPLE/SitePages/Hello.aspx

, where "EXAMPLE" word will be different on each site.

Sharepoint 2013 Online - error while setting up CRM integration

$

Hi,

we use Dynamics CRM 2011 on-premise and Sharepoint 2013 online and since last week CRM integration with Sharepoint stopped working. When I want to set up "Document Management Settings" in CRM administration I got an error

"An error occured while loading the page. The url may not have been mapped in the Sharepoint server. Ask your system administrator to check the Configure alternate access mappings settings in Sharepoint central administration."

But we use Sharepoint online, so I can't configure it.

I think it is common issue after some Sharepoint update in last month, because I tested 2 instances of Sharepoint online with 4 instances of CRM on-premise (3 different versions of CRM 2011 and one last updated CRM 2013).

Our SharePoint 2013 farm is installed and configured on " A" domain and users from " A " domain are able to successfully access the SharePoint site and people picker also works fine . However , we have a new requirement where-in users from " B" domain should have access to the SharePoint farm and I would like to know the configuration steps in detail to do that . Both " A" and "B" have two -way trust .I understand that this needs some tweaking with Powershell commands on SharePoint people picker , however I would like to know the complete steps in detail . Also I would like to know the necessary pre-requsiites that we should have in place before making some changes to the people picker . Please advise.

Unable to access site on SP Server 2013

Hi all,

I have a done a restore of a SP Foundation 2013 database into a fresh database( WSS_Content_A) thru SQL management studio. I have installed SP Server 2013 on a different server(suppose server X) and I have added the content database (WSS_Content_A) from Manage Content Database in Central Admin. I have not added alternate access mapping configuration.

When I am accessing the site on the server itself (suppose, http://sp-web02), I am getting the error message '

Correlation ID: 7712ad9d-767b-30e0-91e3-8caa2f913a10'

Why is it appearing as SharePoint Foundation when SharePoint Server has been installed. Is it the database backup which is causing this?

From ULS Log Viewer, the Correlation ID refers to this error message '

Exception trying get context compatibility level: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The site http://sp-web-02:80/ could not be found in the Web application SPWebApplication Name=SharePoint - 80.    
 at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite.LookupSiteInfo(SPFarm farm, Boolean contextSite, Boolean swapSchemeForPathBasedSites, Uri& requestUri, Boolean& lookupRequiredContext, Guid& applicationId, Guid& contentDatabaseId, Guid& siteId, Guid& siteSubscriptionId, SPUrlZone& zone, String& serverRelativeUrl, Boolean& hostHeaderIsSiteName, Boolean& appWebRequest, String& appHostHeaderRedirectDomain, String& appSiteDomainPrefix, String& subscriptionName, String& appSiteDomainId, Uri& primaryUri)'

Please help me solve this issue..

Thanks


How to setup IP-adresses

Hi,

I'm running Windows 2012 server on my laptop and I will install SP2013 on it. For that, always on the same laptop, I will stup DNS server, AD, SQL Server. As I know I have to setup an static ip-address when installing DNS-server. In my situation I can't use an static ip-address because I use the laptop at my work to connect to the company network.

My laptop has two network cards, one for LAN and other for wireless, at my work I use the wireless so I was thinking to use the LAN with a static ip-address but I am not sure if it will work? Do you have some tips or rekommendation on this topic?

Thank you for your comments!

Export-SPWeb -Identity https://my.webapp.com/sitecollection1 -ItemUrl collaboration/Activities/Lists/Activities -path "D:\Temp\Lists\activities.cmp"

In the same web app for a different site collection I ran this command and it worked..

Export-SPWeb -Identity https://my.webapp.com/sitecollection2 -ItemUrl collaboration/Activities2/Lists/Activities -path "D:\Temp\Lists\activities2.cmp"
I cant determine why as both lists are in the root of the site collections

After restoring database on SP Server, site collection is not showing same results as on SP Foundation's Site Collection

Hi all,

I have two different servers. On one, there is SharePoint Foundation 2013 and on another one, there is SharePoint Server 2013. I wish to transfer my SP Foundation database to the SP Server server. 

I had performed a WSS_Content backup of SharePoint Foundation. On the another server where the SP Server resides, I create a new SQL database in SQL server. The backup from SP Foundation was then restored in SQL server and from Central Admin, the current content database was removed and I have added my newly restored database.

When I am trying to access the Site on SP Server, I am getting the Welcome page of IIS. And from Site Collection, it appears that the root site has not been created. Please note that the sites present on SP Foundation is not reflecting at all on SP Server site collection list.

Please advise.
