Importing the Sharepoint List to Excel, imports the entire list

$
0
0

Hello,

I have create a Share Point list where I have applied security on departments by creating a view : Department head (people group column) = [ME] under Filter section.

This works fine with security.(Though not sure whether is this the correct way to apply security)

BUT when a particular Department -Head seeing his department data exports the list to Excel (which is one of the requirement) all the data of different department appears too. Is there something that I am doing wrong or is there a different way to do where only the particular department data gets exported. 

Please Help!



Permissions issue after migration.

$
0
0

Greetings,

I have run into an issue with permissions after a database migration from 2007 to 2010.

During the migration, I changed the authentication from Classic to Claims and NTLM using the TechNet article.

Below are the commands I ran on SharePoint powershell.

$WebAppName ="http://sharepointsite"

$wa = get-SPWebApplication $WebAppName

$wa.UseClaimsAuthentication =   $true

$wa.Update()

$wa.MigrateUsers($true)

Now, it appears that permissions changes don't seem to take affect.

For example, I elevated the access level of a test user from Read to Contribute, however, that user still doesn't see the options available at Contribute level.

Also, I give users access to a site and they are still not able to access it. I have tried IIS on both the SharePoint and IIS server.

Has anyone seen this before?

Fix alerts after 2010 database attach upgrade

$
0
0

Hi all,

I’m trying to fix existing alerts after a database attach 2010 upgrade (from MOSS 2007). Newly created alerts in 2010 work fine. I've applied the following as per Shane to fix alert on a site collection with no luck.

Get-SPweb -site http://portal/sites/new -limit all |ForEach-Object {$_.alerts|foreach-object{$_.properties["siteUrl"] = "http://portal/sites/new";$_.update()}}

Also tried this script from Salaudden Rajack's blog

$SPSite= Get-SPSite "http://mySharePoint.com/sites/alerts/"
foreach ($spweb in $SPSite.AllWebs)
    {
        foreach($alert in $spweb.Alerts)
            {
                $OriginalTitle = $alert.Title
                $alert.Title = "UPDATE: $OriginalTitle"
                $alert.Update()
                $alert.Title = $OriginalTitle
                $alert.Update()
                Write-Host "Updated Alert" $alert.Title "in"$spweb.url
            }
    }

At this stage when I looked at the [ImmedSubscriptions] table, I found SiteURL was still showing the old web app. Basically until I ran Update command directly (per this blog) into the table to change the SiteURL to my new web app URL, alerts did not work. I know it's not supported way of doing stuff.So checking how others are making alerts to work? 

Does anyone have any suggestion why SiteURL not updating even after I'm running those above scripts? 

Please note I did not really apply the Invoke-AlertFixup function– as I’m seeing in the Q&A section there are comments that it breaks the ‘Modify my alert setting’ but unfortunately Kirk Stark has not addressed the issue yet.

Appreciate any feedback!

Sharepoint 2010 file upload limit

I wanted to know the Microsoft recommendations for increasing file upload limit from 50 MB to around 2 gig. Will there be too many problems if we increase it to around 2 GB?

Apart from central admin changes, what should the time out be changed to approx. in IIS?

As always, your help is appreciated much.

Strange ribbon/permissions issue

$
0
0

I have a site collection and domain\domain users have been granted read access as part of the visitors group at the top level. 

In a document library I have broken inheritance and added a specific user with contribute access. When I view permissions at the top level it lists this user as "limited access".

The problem is that when the user edits a page the ribbon shows but all of the edit buttons are missing, infact all that shows is the site actions button.

Any ideas what could be missing here? Very baffling. I don't think I am setting permissions incorrectly.

I am using sharepoint server 2010 and project server 2010.  I have one front end server and a sql server 2008 database server.  The database server has ssrs enabled in sharepoint integration mode.

recently the C drive space has been maxed out due to a large number of .usage files.  In the CA site under Monitoring >> Configure web analytics and health data collection, it was configured to enable usage data and health data.  the maximum log file size is set to 5GB.

There were several thousand usage files on the C drive.  it appears that a couple of .usage files are being created every five minues.

I unchecked Enable usage data collection and I uncheck enable health data collection but it is still logging usage files to : C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS\

Hi, All

    I met a problem puzzled me a long time.
   
   
    My Sharepoint and FAST can run normally and i can do query in sharepoint query site,  then I do a full backup successfully.

    when restore i met a content distributor problem.

    I reinstall FAST Server and run a initial post-setup configuration completely. then I run a full retore and it complete sucessfully. but when i

resume fast moudle servcies i find that the content distributor is dead. and i run the nctrl restart contentdistributor, it can not start content

distributor. I can't find the reasons why it occurs.

 Can you give me some advice? And Thanks a lot. 

 

When i run "nctrl restart contentdistributor" it says :

Process   contentdistributor terminated shortly after starting

 

And another problem is that   can we retore the fast server that reinstall but not run initial configuration?
 


CA works fine, "Cannot connect to the configuration database" for a site collection?

Hello,

I'm moving all the DBs of a Sharepoint 2010 farm from a SQL2008 server to a SQL2012 server. I created a cliconfg.exe TCP/IP redirect that works fine for the CA site and two of three site collections. One of the sites gives me the "Cannot connect to the configuration database" error.

I checked the old SQL server and new and the WSS_Content_Site3 db is on both, mdf files are the same size. I tried detatching/reattaching the db in question but nothing changed.

Any recommendations on what to check? Would there be anything in the 14/Logs?

Thanks,

Scott


Need to duplicate Site Collection

$

0

I am using SharePoint 2010 and have two farms QA and PROD. We have copied the content DB of Publishing Site from PROD to UAT and mount the same to the new web application in QA farm. Now client has asked me to create one more copy of the same site collection on the same farm (QA) on the different web application.. But I am facing the site collection GUID duplicate error here because of which I am unable to proceed further. 

I have searched over the net where people have suggested to restore this content DB to another farm and then do the Backup-SPSite command and then restore the same using Restore-SPSite command on QA farm. But in my situation we do not have any other farm except for two mentioned above and also the content DB size is around 130 GB.

Can someone please help me to find the way out in this situation ?

Thanks

How to link to a lookup list source in a different site collection in SharePoint 2010?

$
0

We have a site collection that serves as a content type hub and it has a list (tenant directory) that serves as a source for a lookup field (tenant name) in many other site collections. but since the fields is a lookup field it does work with the datasource in another site collection.

Is there a way to lookup a list in another site collection? Does "Business Connection" function can work for this?

Thanks for any idea!

Sharepoint 2010 Standard view

Hi,

   I am using a list in sharepoint 2010 displaying both in the standard view (with some grouping) and in datasheet view. I am having issues with data displaying in the standard view. We can enter data in to datasheet view or through the form. The data will show in datasheet view and in the form if you open it up again but it will not show in the standard view. What is weird is some of the data does show from the first couple of entries into the record but anything after that will not show in just the standard view.

    Does any one have any ideas?

Thanks

How to monitor connection to AD during populate container query

$

I set up a test environment to troubleshoot user profiles being marked for deletion.  After the user profile application and user profile synchronization service are started I try and create a connection.  When I click the populate container button it sits at querying and never shows any of the containers pulled from AD.  The user account has been added to all the FIM groups and is local admin and has correct AD rights to query AD as this is the same user account used for production.  I have successfully pinged the AD server.  

Is there a way to monitor what is happening when I click the populate containers button?  What should I look for in the SP logs or in windows event logs that would give some explanation as to what is going on?

Central Administration Site Link errors

When I access the Central Administration Site to manually configure my Server Farm, I am unable to click any "OK" buttons after I have setup my configurations.  For example:

I click on "New" and then "Search Service Applications.
A window comes up asking me to choose certain configurations.  I enter all of my information and then click OK, but nothing happens.  I can cancel, but I cannot click "OK."

What could be causing this?  It happens on other web forms, too.

rebuilt User Profile Service - maa-extension export errors in FIIM sync

Hi All,

Due to various issues, I've had to rebuild my User Profile Service a few times.  Each time, I keep the Profile_DB and Social_DB, but re-create the Sync_DB.

When doing full imports, I'm noticing the following errors on the MOSS_EXPORT stage of the MIISCLIENT:

Username   maa-extension-error   Details: 

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.InvalidOperationException:More than one DN specified for the same profile.

There is absolutely no info on the internet for the bolded message in relation to SharePoint, so I'm worried I may have to open a Microsoft case to get this resolved.  Any ideas are appreciated.  Running SharePoint 2010 Enterprise w/ Feb 2011 cumulative updates.
