User not receiving Sharepoint emails

$
0
0

Hi! I have a problem with a user in my Exchange 2010: He doesn't receive ANY sharepoint email.

For example, I have a list with a simple workflow that sends an email to a "Assigned To" person. It works perfectly with any user of the Active Directory, except with this user.

I've logged the SMTP server used by Sharepoint and I can see the emails Sharepoint sends for any user. However, when I put this user on the "Assigend To" field, any email message appears in the SMTP server, so, Sharepoint isn't sending any email for this user.

Then I've enabled logging in Sharepoint, and I can see this message when Sharepoint try to send the email for the problematica user:

Coercion (MultiEmailAddressSemicolon) warning: E-mail address not found for CONTOSO\Steve

I've review ten times my AD record for that user, and all is ok. He has his email addres there. I've compared the AD record of one working user with this not-working user and I can't find any differences.

I have noticed that users who do recieve the emails are shown in the "Assigend to" field with their display name, however users who don't receive the emails are shown in the "Assigned to" fied with their domain name. For example:

  • In the "Assigned to" field, a user that does receive Sharepoint emails looks like: Michael Farrow Logan
  • In the "Assigned to" field, a user that doesn't receive Sharepoint emails looks like: CONTOSO\Steve

Can you help me?

PD: We have Sharepoint 2010 + Exchange 2010 + Active Directory

Dear Experts,

Had a query, I am unable to Deploy a WSP file on SP-2010 Farm. Farm has 1 WFE, 1 APP, 1 DB. Initially the farm was 2 -Tier which we later made 3-tier by adding additional machine. I am getting Local Farm not accessible message, and some times access denied. I checked by Disabling User Acounts Group. and checked all server account was added to Local Admin Group. Previous Administrators were able to do so. Am I missing something.

Thanks,

Acces Denied for some accounts to root site but not to sites that inheret permissions from root

I´ve a SharePoint Foundation (2010) installation. No claims authentication, only Windows. Some accounts get access denied on the root site, but can access subsites that inherets permission from root site. I´ve tried to delete on of the problem accounts from sitecollection and add it back, a couple of times. Tried to give permission thru different groups and direct, nothing helps. New accounts have no problem to access the site. Is there a way to really start all over with an account?

hi,

 we have 5 people who wanna  develop sharepoint web parts, workflows etc.how to start the devlpmnt?

Can we have:

 1) 5 win 7 32 bit OS  machines and we will install hyper-v in that and install windows server 2008 r2  and  sp 2010/ sql sever in that VIRTUAL HD using virtulization?

 OR

2)  install 5 win 7 64 bit enterprise boxes  [as desktops ] and install sp 2010/ sql 2008 r2 in those machines.

or

3) we  will have 3 windows server 2008 r2 server boxes and 5 people will connect to them remotely and work on their devlpmnt. but here, how can mulitple ppl debug at the same time in one box? i heard that only one person can debug the appln in one box.the other person have to wait for completion of  first person's debuging [ only one iis worker process  is there].  

what  should be the ideal way of starting the sp devlpmnt?

any help is appreciated.

The worker process failed to initialize correctly and therefore could not be started. The data is the error.

I setup a Visio service application that is running under its own account on a two server farm (WFE and DB). However, the application pool fails whenever we call it.  When I look at the windows event logs I see the following message:

I've added it to various security groups trying to fix the issue. Its currenly part of: WSS_WPG, Performance Monitor Users, IIS_IUSRS group on the WFE and I made sure it was a DB_Owner on the content database.

I noticed that when I run the SQL profiler that the account never shows up as doing anything or executing anything on the sql server.

I'm thinking this is a connectivity issue. 

If I change the service to run as the farm account it runs just fine with no errors.

Has anyone run into a similiar issue?

2 different SQL instance - moving Db's

I’ve got an environment that uses 2 different SQL servers – it has 15 databases where only 1 runs on the “right” SQL server

I would like to move all other 14 DB’s from SQLServer1 to SQLserver2

I can only take the SharePoint config and the 2 content databases offline in the CA all I can’t take the databases of the Service applications offline through the CA

How is moving DBs from one server to another - done in the easiest way? - is there a walkthrough somewhere?

Migrate Sharepoint 2010 Site Parts to Sharepoint 2013 via Windows Explorer

$

Hello,

We're upgrading from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013 and we have two main goals:

  • Re-structure
  • Maintain content

We've tested the database detach-attach method to transfer the content, but that lacks the ability to restructure our site. We now have setup a new SharePoint 2013 environment with our desired structure in place, and we're looking at ways to migrate AND upgrade the content to the 2013 site. I understand this is not a support migration path, but we've deemed it to be the easiest way possible while meeting our criteria above.

Currently, we can map both of the sites to a network drive on a Windows 7 machine, and then drag and drop certain site assets. This works for files such as PDF's, .docs, and .wmv's. Once transfered to SP2013, we can view and manipulate the files as if they originated on that server. If we try to move site pages (.aspx pages using the drag and drop method), mainly Wiki Pages, they will come over to SP2013 but they appear blank.

My question is: is it possible to migrate site assets (Wiki pages, and other .aspx pages) from SP2010 using the method above (drag and drop), then upgrade the content to SP2013. Or is there an alternative solution?

Site collection term set has custom sort order removed

$

We have a site collection specific term set with a custom sort order. Sometimes just after an IISRESET, the custom sort order is removed and the default alphabetical sort order is reverted to. I don't know specifically whether the IISRESET is the cause of this, especially as it does not always happen, but I can state that the very first action I perform after the IISRESET is to go to the homepage of my site collection, and by the time the homepage has rendered the custom sort order has been removed. I can see this because we use the termset to store the top navigation details (as SP 2013 would have us do) and the top navigation is in the wrong order. Furthermore if I go to the term store manager I see that the default sort order radio button is chosen "Use default sort order according to current language."

Any help would be appreciated.</label>


OpenDocument Addon breaking

Hi!

We are running Sharepoint 2010.  Our users are running Windows 7. Office 2010. IE 9.

We do have some Office 2013 components (Lync 2013 and a few users have Visio 2013).

Everytime we install or modify a 2013 component we have to repair Office 2010 because the Sharepoint OpenDocument Addon stops working.

When you click on a document from Sharepoint (xlsx for example) it normall asks to Open Read Only or Open Modify. When the addon stops working users only have the options Open.. Save.. or Save As... (choosing open opens read-only) with no Sharepoint notions (doesnt even tell you this is readonly)

Not sure where to start. Thoughts?

Thanks

STSADM Import failing trying to recreate the user information list

$

Please can anybody help me.

I am in the process of merging sharepoint servers into one, the easiest way i have found to do this is to export the site collections with STSADM export and then import them as sub webs into my main server/site collection, this has worked fine on all farms but one.
This one i am having issues with has exported fine but when i then run "STSADM -O Import -urlhttps://url -filename c:/file.cmp -nofilecompression" it starts to import, gets to about 20 minutes into it and then it errors with:

"[6/24/2013 9:52:14 AM] [List] [User Information List] Progress: Importing
[6/24/2013 9:52:14 AM] [List] [User Information List]   ExtendedVerbose: Creating

[6/24/2013 9:52:14 AM] FatalError: There can only be one instance of this list type in a web.

An instance already exists."

I dont understand why this one is trying to recreate the user information list, none of the others did and this one is just an out of the box user information list, nothing special. I have looked for any operations to specify excluding lists but i havnt seen any.

Both Farms are SharePoint 2010, the reason i am using STSADM and not powershel SPWeb-Import is because i have exported the original with -nofilecompression, my server is hosted so it took days to upload the exported file so re exporting the file using powershell and re uploading is a last resort.I have been using sharepoint since 2003 which is why i prefer to use STSADM where i can, as up until now ive never had a problem with it.

Running SPWeb-Import on the file just gives me "file not found" as i used nofilecompression, even if i point to the directory.

If anyone knows how i can get past this i would be extremly greatful!.

migrating a site to a new site collection, on the same server

$

i everyone, i have some troubles moving a site, maybe you could help?

The whole point is to change the database hosting the site, because this site gets too big to be handled by the main database.

so, i made an export with stsadm -o.

i laso created a new DB, with higher values than the main one, and a new site collection.

i then reimported everything.

Here, my first problems arose:some files didn't transfer: mainly layout pages.i copied them with designer.

Then, everyhting seemed to be working more or less right, but i am now unable tomodify the web pages. i get the following error:

System.Web.HttpException: Délai d'attente de la demande dépassé. (which means TIMEOUT)

and a little bit later (in the same second)

an SPrquest object was not disposed before the end of this thread.  To avoid wasting system resources, dispose of this object or its parent (such as an SPSite or SPWeb) as soon as you are done using it.  This object will now be disposed.  Allocation Id: {94A81494-DF99-4EE5-8AF2-1409AF884704}  To determine where this object was allocated, set Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPWebService.ContentService.CollectSPRequestAllocationCallStacks = true.

Any idea where should i look into?

or if i did anything wrong?

thanks in advance


Central Administration Errors

I have an issue with my Central Administration that I am hoping someone can help me with. I am running Central Admin on its own server with Sharepoint 2010. I am able to access the homepage without any issues however if i try to navigate to links on the Central Administration I can only get to a few. I can click System Settings and see the links however I cannot get to Backup and Restore and a number of other links. I do receive a correlation ID but I am unable to find this reference anywhere in the ULS logs. The errors that come up either say "An unexpected error has occurred", or  "Required Permissions cannot be acquired". Has anyone ever come across something like this before? If so, I would appreciate some direction on how to correct this. Thanks.

SharePoint 2010 upgrade UNC paths in document library are not hyperlinks anymore

$
0
0

Hello,

I recently upgraded my SharePoint server from 2007 to 2010 version using the database attach method. One difference that I cannot fix is in document libraries where there are plain text fields that have a UNC path they are not hyperlinks anymore. With the 2007 version of SharePoint all of these UNC paths are hyperlinks to the documents there. After upgrading only some of them are still hyperlinks and it depends on which view I am using to look at the files, some views still have the links and others do not. We are still using the old look of SharePoint and have not done the visual upgrade, I am not sure if that is related to this problem. When I create a view exactly the same as a view that does have working hyperlinks, none of the entries are hyperlinks in the copy of the view. The views are all based off of forms and adding different content types does not make a difference in the way this works, neither does following these steps:

Following are the steps to achieve this.

1) Create a site content type of type "link to a document" with "Document" as a parent content type. 
2) Add the same to the document library. 
3) Go in the layouts folder open newlink.aspx in Visual Studio IDE 
4) add the following function to the script tag 

Code Snippet
function HasValidUrlPrefix_Override(url) 
        { 
            var urlLower=url.toLowerCase(); 
            if (-1==urlLower.search("^http://") && 
            -1==urlLower.search("^https://") && -1==urlLower.search("^file://")) 
            return false; 
            return true; 
        } 
5) Replace "HasValidUrlPrefix" to "HasValidUrlPrefix_Override" in the newlink.aspx 
6) IISReset and when adding a link to a file share. It shoudl be done in the following format "file://\\{ComputerName}\\}FileName}" it should work 
7) Change the wss resource file present in app_globalresources to show the following message "Enter a valid document name and URL.  Valid URLs must begin with 'http:' or 'https:' or 'file://'"

From: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/3f2c34cc-5686-4e03-ba26-092aaa29ff33/link-from-document-library-to-unc-path 

Is there some site setting or something in Central Administration I can change to get this working?
