Incoming/Outgoing Settings - Office 365

Hello,

I've been searching all over the internet for a few days now and I'm unable to find any sort of answer/solution to my issue. I'm trying to configure Office 365 (SharePoint Online and Exchange Online). Things were going smoothly until I was trying to setup incoming/outgoing with SharePoint.

I need to configure a workflow so users can send a form to an email address and have that email accepted by SharePoint Online and add the form to a Document Library. The workflow would then continue with other steps and under the correct conditions email individuals letting them know a new document was added and provide a link to the form on SharePoint Online.

I have done with with MOSS 2007 (current prod environment) and it works great. I can't figure out how to do with without on-prem servers for the new environment I'm building for the organization.

Any suggestions, tips, links to directions, etc. would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Move-SPUser Throws "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

Hello,

I have a problem where Move-SPUser is throwing "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

From my experience with other environments, this error would get thrown if I (or whomever runs the script) was not an Administrator of the “User Profile Server” Application. I also had to be added as a user under “Permissions”.

For Now I am just catching it, as the user appears to migrate successfully. I normally do not like doing this.

PowerShell: Try/Catch

Try
{
     Move-SPUser -Identity $userOld -NewAlias $newLoginWthClaim -IgnoreSID -Confirm:$false -ErrorAction Stop
}
Catch
{
     If($Error[0].Exception.Message -ne "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.")
     {
          $Error[0].Exception.Message
     }
} 

What else could be causing this error?

I've tried to set up External Content Types to an Azure SQL database but when I click OK at the Dialog Box for SQL Server Connection I get an error.


Testing different conditions :

  • Firewall SQL Server OFF
  • Firewall SQL Server without my Client IP in the firewall table
  • Typed wrong ( intentionally ) the Secure Store Application ID field
  • Other configurations at the perrmisison in Azure
  • Test an ODBC Driver connection, and, I got a successefully connection using an ODBC driver.

 I had made the testing on different ways and allways I recived the same error "Cannot connect to the LobSystem (External System).....":


Steps by steps made confirating the ECT, Secure Store  and BCS:

First, I created the Secure Sotre App Id:

Second,  Set Credentials with the User and password that used before in ODBC Driver connection tested above.

Third, Propageted the permissions,

Fourht, I created the ECT with SQL Driver connection using the Secure App ID: 

I read out lots on other links found it in the forums and log, without success.

Know you any other issue that fix this error?

Farm architecture and servers communication SharePoint 2013

$

Dears,


We are implementing Sharepoint 20103 and the architecture we are planning to deploy is made by 1 WFE, 1 Application and 1 DB server.

Our customer policy requires however that the Web front end must be isolated from the DB, so the 2 servers will not be able to communicate directly (WFE will talk only to App, and App will talk to DB).

What are the implications of this kind of solution? Could we have issues with some of the services? I'm thinking specially about the reporting: Excel services, Performance Point and Reporting Services.

SharePoint ADFS/AD Single Sign On Multi Profile Architecture Problem

$

Hi all,


I'm trying to find a sharepoint architecture solution about the following problem:

  • I've 2 kinds of users : "External" and "Internal".
  • External users have an AD account, they reach my SharePoint webapp through Internet and authenticate with ADFS.
  • Internal users have an AD account :
    • when they are inside the company they access to my Sharepoint webapp through the internal network and with SSO Windows Authentication (NTLM).
    • when there are outside they access through ADFS

In SharePoint with this kind of configuration I have 3 types of user profile : 

  • 1 Internal (AD)
  • 1 Internal coming from internet (ADFS)
  • 1 external.

My problem : for each internal user i've two Sharepoint account ( one "AD" and one "ADFS"). 

Because of this, Sharepoint site owner have to set permission on both AD account and ADFS account to give access regardless the user came from (internal network or internet).




I can remove NTLM authent for SharePoint and just use ADFS but i don't want that my internal users inside the internal network have to reauthenticate..
how can i configure my ADFS to automatically authenticate internal user with their NTLM credential when they are in the internal network ?

Thanks

-Noinstallcheck option

We recently installed a SP security update and when running the config wizard we couldn't proceed due to missing software.

The software missing was the patch installed and was SP1 from a while back.

Now the system is not missing SP1, so we went ahead and used the no installcheck and it worked fine.

What impact does using that command really have on the completion of the upgrade?

Does it negate the newly installed software?

thanks

Know it’s a longshot 

Scenario:

Users startpage is their MySite – there they have a button “MySite options” that opens up a Pop-up window where they can tick different “Webparts” to display/include these in their MySite.  

Most of these webparts is a Content Search Web that then gets on the users MySite - it works fine.

But I need to know where to adjust some of these “pre-defined” views that those CS webparts uses –

but don’t know where to look in order to change this – if I edit the page, I only see this MySite options webpart – not the inserted/other Content Search ones…

Anyone can point me to where (I've access to all the solutions files in the farm)

the MySite button opens up a MyMySiteSettingsPage.aspx that resides in the 15 hive and in here I see this:     

<asp:Content ID="Main" ContentPlaceHolderID="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server"><div class="MyMySiteSettings"><h2 class="ms-webpart-titleText">Web parts</h2><p>Select or Deselect the Web parts you want to add to your My Site</p><asp:CheckBoxList ID="chkSelectedWebparts" runat="server" /><br /><!-- Action is performed by SetDefaultFeedView Webpart --><!--<h2 class="ms-webpart-titleText">Newsfeed</h2><p>Select the Newsfeed you want as your default, either Everyone or only the people your Following</p><label class="mmlbl">Default Newsfeed</label><asp:DropDownList ID="dlDefaultNewsFeed" runat="server" /><br /><br />
    --><asp:Button ID="btnSaveSettings" runat="server" Text="Save & Close" OnClick="btnSaveSettings_Click" /><asp:Label ID="lblMessage" runat="server" /></div></asp:Content>
