SharePoint 2013 Upgrade Status remains Failed even after problems been fixed

Hi all,

Recently I tried to apply the March CU to the servers in our farm. After installing the exe, I ran the Configuration Wizard on the first server and it failed in the end due to site map related issues. From Central Admin -> Upgrade and Migration -> Check upgrade status, I can see a failed status for the server. I have then refreshed site map and re-run Configuration Wizard and this time the wizard completed successfully.

However, the failed session still shows in the "Check upgrade status" screen. Neither has it been changed to "Success", nor was there a new "Success" session added to the list.

What should I do so that I can get a "Success" status for the server?

Thanks for your ideas.

We have installed SharePoint 2013 on Windows Server 2012 Standard.

I have problem editing office documents from Windows 7 (office 2013). Files are always read-only.

From the same computer I can edit documents from SharePoint 2007 (Server 2008R2).

From the Win XP (Office 2007) I can edit documents on the same SP 2013 site.

Only combination of the latest office technologies is making problem!?

Any clue?

Configure SharePoint 2013 for Claims Authentication with ADFS 3.0 and Token Signing Certificate

I've been following the steps in the following TechNet article in a Lab Environment to see how it all works:

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh305235.aspx#ExportCert

I've managed to get everything setup and working but was getting the following error when logging in via ADFS:

[SecurityTokenException: ID4014: A SecurityTokenHandler is not registered to read security token ('EncryptedData', 'http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#').]
   Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.TokenReceiver.ReadToken(String tokenXml, XmlDictionaryReaderQuotas readerQuotas) +522
   Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.WSFederationAuthenticationModule.SignInWithResponseMessage(HttpRequest request) +439
   Microsoft.IdentityModel.Web.WSFederationAuthenticationModule.OnAuthenticateRequest(Object sender, EventArgs args) +539
   Microsoft.SharePoint.IdentityModel.SPFederationAuthenticationModule.OnAuthenticateRequest(Object sender, EventArgs eventArgs) +207
   System.Web.SyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +176
   System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +187

I found a few articles that suggested it was a problem with the SharePoint Server not being able to decrypt the Token from ADFS for some reason. I was able to get the system working by removing the Token Signing Certificate from the ADFS server but am not sure why it wasn't working with it in place?

I had the Token Signing certificate "installed" on the SharePoint server correctly via the New-SPTrustedRootAuthority command shown in the article above. I also checked that it has the correct Thumbprint, etc.

Anyone got any thoughts as to why it won't work?

Cheers for now

webpart - random behavior

December 5, 2016, 10:16 pm

I previously posted a problem regarding a custom Webpart – Its on the users MySite and “reads” item from another (calendar) list on another WebApplication - on the calendar list there's this columns: 

  • Title
  • Description
  • Start date
  • End date
  • Status
  • Display (checkmark)   

The problem:  New items created doesn’t show up – old items shows up fine (so the Webpart configuration and the rights across is OK)

But as mentions new items created on that calendar "read” list doesn’t show up – it’s Very random behavior – depending which Item that's edited - if I edit an old one it shows fine – and if one old one – doesn’t show I can take another old items and edit – then this shows fine!   

I've checked and compared Webconfigs and all other settings that I can imagine.  

Can it be dist. cache related? - or other cache, tokens settings?   

I need some input in the trouble shooting?

We have an on premises SharePoint 2013 solution with a Web Application that's available to a Federation Partners users via ADFS.

We can currently add the partner users UPN to the ACL of the Application but would like to be able to assign access via Groups if possible?

The partners Federation service can send us the "Role" claim, that I believe contains the SIDs of the users AD groups, but I'm not sure if or how we can use them to assign access?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Backup-SPSite : Invalid column name 'FullUrl'.

Hello,

I'm attempting to backup my path based site collections in SharePoint 2013.  Around half my site collections are receiving the error below when running a Backup-SPsite command.  The other half of my site collections backup successfully.

Backup-SPSite $siteURL -Path $backupFilePath 

Backup-SPSite : Invalid column name 'FullUrl'.
At <snip>.ps1:21 char:5
+     Backup-SPSite $siteURL -Path $backupFilePath
+     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidData: (Microsoft.Share...mdletBackupSite:SPCmdletBackupSite) [Backup-SPSite], SqlException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPCmdletBackupSite
 

I receive a similar error when using this command as well: 

stsadm -o backup -url $siteURL-filename $backupFilePath -backupmethod full

Invalid column name 'FullUrl'.

My best guess is this is a column that was added to the database from a product called K2 BlackPearl, which we no longer have installed or have a current support contact.  These databases were upgraded from SharePoint 2010.

Does anyone have any suggestions how to bypass or fix this error?

Thanks,

Hi

I had done several SharePoint 2013 installation of cumulative update patches.  I have always planned outage for SharePoint site services and that all I need. 

Until I have a request for keep the system down time as minimum as possible or can SharePoint site services be available while the cumulative update installation is running.

My answer to that is I don't think so and SharePoint will not be available until SharePoint product configuration wizard is running.

is that a correct answer and if so is there any way to keep the system down time to a minimum for Cumulative Update installation.

Thanks in advance for any advise, suggestion or comment

SharePoint 2013 top link bar gives 404 error when clicking links

December 5, 2016, 8:19 am

I created a new SharePoint 2013 site with about 20 sub sites and if I am on the base site (the one all the other pages are subsites of) I can click the links across the top link bar with no errors. But once I navigate to a subsite, I am not able to use the top link bar to get to another subsite. It always gives me a 404 error every time.  I can get back to the base site, but not to a site in the top level of the top link bar.  The weird part is if I am on a subsite and use the top link to navigate to a site nested under a header, it works just fine.  The links do in fact work because I can click them while on the base site, but while on a subsite, I can't click the headers (404 error), but I can click links if they are nested under a header.  All of the links in the top link bar are subsites of the same SharePoint structure and therefore start with "/sites/unit/travel" for example.  I can't post any pictures so I hope I explained it well enough.

Setup Apps for AAM Zone

Hi everyone, I have a 2-tier farm with 2 SharePoint 2013 Servers configured for high availability (both servers are SharePoint, Search, Workflow etc.)
 with a hardware load balancer in front of them.
The configuration is as follow: I have one web application with one http site collection
HostA:
IIS Host header: http://siteA.contoso.local (Default zone)-> IP 10.1.1.1
extended with Alternate Access Mapping to
IIS Host header: https://siteB.contoso.com (Intranet zone)-> IP 10.1.1.1
Windows HOSTS file entries:
10.1.1.1  siteA.contoso.local
10.1.1.1  siteB.contoso.com

HostB:
IIS Host header: http://siteA.contoso.local (Default zone)-> IP 10.1.1.2
extended with Alternate Access Mapping to
IIS Host header: https://siteB.contoso.com (Intranet zone)-> IP 10.1.1.2
Windows HOSTS file entries:
10.1.1.2  siteA.contoso.local
10.1.1.2  siteB.contoso.com

Load Balancer VIP: 10.1.1.3 (for port 80 & 443).
Domain DNS Server Entries:
10.1.1.3  siteA.contoso.local
10.1.1.3  siteB.contoso.com
(those are the IPs that my clients use to connect to https://siteB.contoso.com

So both zones are using the same Virtual IP with Host Headers configured on IIS.
My users are using the https://siteB.contoso.com zone only.
I 'm trying to configure Apps infrastructure.
So far I have managed to make Apps working on my http zone but I have problem to setup Apps for my https (AAM) zone.

I have configured DNS entries for my apps:
*.contosoapps.com   -> points to VIP 10.1.1.3 ( https://siteB.contoso.com ).

Apps domain:  app.contosoapps.com
Apps web application and top level site collection has been set up:
http://contosoapps.com& https://contosoapps.com:444 (with NO HEADERS on IIS)
SSL certificate *.contosoapps.com have been issued and installed on IIS

Right now, Apps are working on my http zone, but i can't make them work on my https zone.

I 'm aware of March 2013 PU new New-SPWebApplicationAppDomain PowerShell commands and tried to apply them for my https zone:

$contentService =   [Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService]::ContentService
$contentService.SupportMultipleAppDomains   = $true
$contentService.Update()
Iisreset

New-SPWebApplicationAppDomain -AppDomain   contosoapps.com -WebApplicationhttps://siteB.contoso.com -Zone intranet -Port   444 -SecureSocketsLayer

Get-SPHealthAnalysisRule   WebApplicationAppDomainsConfigurationTest | Enable-SPHealthAnalysisRule

i'm getting error
"An error occurred during a connection to app-ed24a3aad7c2da.contosoapps.com.
SSL peer has no certificate for the requested DNS name. Error code: SSL_ERROR_UNRECOGNIZED_NAME_ALERT

What i'm missing here? Is my configuration above correct?
Thank you in advance!

In SharePoint 2013 (On Premise) we have migrated SharePoint 2013 Site Collections to a new server by copying the Content Databases. The old permissions still exist (using old domain name). There are around 2000 users. We need to write a script that will change the old domain name to the new one. The user name shall remain the same.

Thinking of using a Metalogix Migration Tool. But wondering if there are other ways: PowerShell script, code? Kindly advice.

Thanks so much!

Desired State Configuration add snapin

Hi

I cant find information about this issue anywhere, so I shall try my luck here:-)

Using server 2012R2 with Powershell 5 and Desired State Configuration.

I have created a DSC module with dscresources (class 5) for configuring SharePoint. Meaning additional configurations in addition to the SharePointDSC module in PowerShell Gallery and github repository.

When running SharePoint cmdlets in powershell it is neccessary to add the SharePoint snapin:

 if ((Get-PSSnapin -Registered -Name 'microsoft.sharepoint.powershell') -ne $null)
        {
            try
            {
                Add-PSSnapin 'microsoft.sharepoint.powershell'
                Write-Debug 'Added microsoft.sharepoint.powershell snapin'
            }
            catch
                {
                    throw 'There was a problem loading snapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell.'
                }
        }
        else
        {
            throw 'microsoft.sharepoint.powershell snapin is not installed on this system!'
        }


However, when running my mof (Managed Object Format) file with verbose I get the message:

PowerShell DSC resource SkaDscResourceSharePoint  failed to execute Test functionality with error message: There was a problem loading snapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell.+ CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (:) [], CimException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ProviderOperationExecutionFailure+ PSComputerName        : localhost

I have tried just adding the snapin like this

add-PSSnapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell

But that gives me the error :

An item with the same key has already been added

Any hints and tips are welcome!
