Upload File option nolonger in sp2010 form after editing template using infopath

$
0
0

Hi, I want my users of the sharepoint 2010 list to be able to upload a number of documents to list items when required.

We have 2 fields on the form, one so that a document with questions can be added, and one for a similar answer document.

Befor using infopath, the enhanced type text allowed the user to upload a file to that column. But the tab which has the upload option is now missing from the form once edited by infopath.

i don't want the users to have to upload documents elswhere on the sharepoint site and it makes the process much longer.

Also I don't seem to have the attach control on my infopath settings

   


How to initialize Search Admin Component?

$

Hi,

I'm running a SP2010 Farm with 2 front ends.
I'm experiencing an issue with the search service. I get the following error message :

The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the
administration component. Verify that the administration component
'7022c4db-3b42-470f-be3a-91fb64b36a9b' in search application 'NewSSA' is in a
good state and try again.

I have tried to initialize the admin component like so :

$si = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance -Identity d71bf7f4-845d-45bd-9022-6a3895cd81fa
$varSearchApp = get-spenterprisesearchserviceapplication
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchAdministrationComponent -SearchApplication $varSearchApp -SearchServiceInstance $si

I have tried to completely wipe out the search service (through UI) and recreate it like so

$appPool = New-SPServiceApplicationPool -name "SsaAppPool" -account "domain\***********"
 $ssa =  New-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication -Name "NewSSA" -ApplicationPool $appPool
$proxy = new-spenterprisesearchserviceapplicationproxy -name NewSSAProxy -Uri $ssa.uri.absoluteURI
 $searchInstance = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance -Local
 $ssa | get-SPEnterpriseSearchAdministrationComponent | set-SPEnterpriseSearchAdministrationComponent -SearchServiceInstance $searchInstance -Force
 $ssa | Get-SPEnterpriseSearchAdministrationComponent

Everything gets created but Admin component still not initialized.

I have tried reinstalling features (tips from http://blog.fpweb.net/sharepoint-2010-server-search-troubleshooting-round-2-2/#.UZ9wbrXJR-s )

Install-SPFeature -path "SharedServices" -force

So, How can I start this search admin component?

SharePoint Extend Web Application

Greetings,

We currently have a SharePoint intranet site which has two Site Bindings on the IIS server. One is the original URL, sayhttp://original_site and the other is http://intranet setup on a server name that doesn't match either of the binds.

Our DNS has two CNAMES which are pointing to the same SharePoint server.

Currently I have AAM setup where http://original_site is the Default andhttp://intranet is the Intranet.

Everything works fine except for the SharePoint 2010 Designer (SPD) which is the key application I use to customize site design changes and workflows. The SPD errors out trying to open either of the two sites.

I am a little weary of using Extend Web Application feature because I attempted it in our DEV environment after which I could not log into the site using the new and original URL. Forms and Anonymous authentications settings were enabled on IIS after I made change. I had to rebuild the test web application.

Since I am the only one who needs SharePoint Designer, are there any other options?

Since applying Feb 2013 Sharepoint 2010 CUs - Critical event log entries for Blob cache and missing images

$
0
0

Hi,

Since applying the February 2013 SharePoint 2010 updates, we are getting lots of entries in our event logs along the following:

Content Management     Publishing Cache         5538     Critical An error occurred in the blob cache.  The exception message was 'The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002)’

In pretty much all of these cases the image/ file in question that is reported in the ULS logs as missing is not actually in the collaboration site, master page / html etc so the fix needs to go back to the site owner to make the correction to avoid the 404 (if they make it!). This has only started happening, I believe since feb 2013 sp2010 cumulative updates updates

I didn’t see this mentioned as a change / in the Fix list of the February updates. i.e. it flags up a critical error in our event logs. So with a lot of sites and a lot of missing images your event log can quickly fill up.

Obviously you can suppress them in the monitoring -> web content management ->publishing cache = none & none which is not ideal.

So my question is... are others seeing this and was a change made by Microsoft to flag a 404 missing image / file up a critical error in event log when blob cache is enabled?

If i log this with MS they will just say, you need to fix it up the missing files in the site but would be nice to know this had changed prior! I also deleted and recreated the blob cache and this made no diffference

thanks

MOSS2010: Syncing with SkyDrive Pro

Hello,


since we changed from Windows 7 with Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010 to Windows 8 with SkyDrive Pro we are having trouble with syncing our Data.

Sometimes the following error occurs when you start syncing your data: Microsoft SkyDrive Pro Error, unknown Error. Error code=0x80004005; Error source=Groove

If you disconnect SkyDrive Pro and re-connect it with the MOSS it works until the Error occurs again.  We also tried several things I found on google, but we can't figure out how to solve this issue permanently.

Thank you very much for every information that leads to the solving of this problem

SSO is not working in sharepoint

Hi

I have two web applications in SharePoint 2010 configured with ADFS 2.0

Both the applications are working fine when run individually (in different browser). But when I open both applications in two tabs of same browser, for first application it redirects to ADFS server which asks for credentials and after successful authentication redirects to home page of application (on SharePoint server).

But if I open the second application in another tab. there seems to be a loop between ADFS server and SharePoint server , finally it gives the error (in event viewer of ADFS server) that : "the same client browser has made 6 requests in last 1 second". which seems to be an error related to session management, but since first application is working fine, I guess that means the token is still valid, please help me why it is behaving like this, the second application should also work fine.

Sync/copy documents from File server not updated in Sharepoint 2010 foundation shared documents library

$

Source: Windows server 2008 R2, File server
Destination: Windows server 2008 R2, Sharepoint 2010 Foundation server.

Scenario:

Users do regular Excel update in the file server. I would like to sync/copy the update of the file server to Sharepoint Shared Library daily at night time.

I tried to use SyncToy software, and also use ROBOCOPY methods.

I tried the both: 
Source: "\\fileservername\path\folder" AND Y:\  
( tried either network path or mapped drive)

Destination: "\\shareppoint\sites\test\shared documents"  AND Z:\
(tried either network paht or mapped drive)

None of the method above successful.

I noticed that the new file from source server was actually copied over to destination server, which is sharepoint. The new file is visible for a while in destination server,  but after a few seconds, the old files come back. The files is not updated (I confirmed this by the files size). However, the files modified date shows the latest, but the content never get updated.

I used to suspect it was permission issue, but I checked, I was using administrator account, this account also the Sharepoint site admin account.

I am running out of idea where goes wrong. Any advice/opinion from you?

Thank you.

SP 2010 Configuration Wizard Failing ( In VMWare VM Box) - Please HELP

$
0
0

Hi, I need your help in configuring SP-2010 in my VM, which I am struggling for a long time. I have some basic understanding of SPoint and its installation. Please help me.

A: My HW/SW Configuration

1. Host Server HOST - WS2008R2 Roles-ADCS, ADDS, App Server, DHCP, DNS, Web S(IIS). Added reqd Service Acnts such as sp_Farm, sp_Admin, sql_Admin, sp_Service etc.

2. VMWare VM1 - WS2008R2 Roles-App Server, DNSs (can omit if not needed), File Service, Web Server(IIS) DNF. 3.5.1. Connected to Host domain. Can ping to/from Host & can access internet using VM Network.

3. VMWare VM2 - similar as VM1 (actually I wanted VM2 to use as SQL Server & install SP Server on VM1)

4. 16GB Ram Lapto LT - 64 bit Win7 Ent, connected to Host domain. Can RDP to Host. Can ping to/from HOST both by IP address & server name. Can access HOST SP Central Admin & Default sites as: http://HOST:5555, http://HOST, and from Internet using my provider static IP as: http://(101...):5555, http://IP

B: Objective 

  • Though I successfully installed SP-2010 server in HOST and seems to be working fine.
  • I want to use this HOST box as my Personal Prodn server & access from internet as interim personal Hosting provider. 
  • My ultimate aim is to install SP on VMs as a 2 tier small farm, VM1 for server, AppS, IIS  and VM2 for SQL Server and MS Exchange later on. This I intend to use for Test & Development and then if ok move/copy to HOST SharePoint and also to keep Snapshots in different stages.
  • In this regard I installed SQL Server 2008R2 in both VM1 & VM2 as workaround, using Domain sql_Admin account (in Vm2).

C: The Probem 

      • After installing SP2010 on VM2(now using SqlS & SPoint both in the same box), when I try to run Configuration wizard, it issues the following message;
      • SP Configuration Error Message
      • I definitely added IIS role in the box and it also show on the list.
    • I understand there may be Sql network and remote access issue. I checked and enabled Remote access using default port 1433.
  • I think If I can connect VM2 SQL Server from HOST or from VM2 to HOST SQL Server, then this problem may be resolved. Now I can only connect server own Sql Sfrom their own server.

I am now puzzled about what to do. Please help me what to do now and what area to look.

Thanking in advance.

A frustrated SP aficionado.


Actions | Copy... function greyed out in Manage Content and Structure

$

Even with Full Control at the top level site, we can't seem to get access to the Copy... function (for sites) in the Manage Content and Structure tool.  We want to grant this to a lower level user account.  Of note is that Move... is available but Copy... is greyed out.

We do have a user that does have access to the Copy... function.  At the site permissions level the user has the same Full Control.  This user is a site collection administrator - could that be the issue? 

Thanks for any insight!

Hi All,

we are facing a strange issue. where in one of my server shows as "installation required" in the central administration.

SP1 and CU patched are updated 3month before. After patching we checked there is no alert till date. But all of sudden we get this installation required alert.

I tried to run the PS configuration . it blocks and instruct this language/updates are not updated.

Get-SPProduct –local
Tried PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures -cmd installcheck -noinstallcheck and execute successfully. still that alert exist.

Can anyone suggest what can be done to clear out this issue.

Note : on surfing with blog, i came to know, uninstall and reinstall will be complicated.

Hi,

I am having a mysterious problem with my SharePoint 2010 server. My SharePoint point is running on IIS7.5 in Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 R2 as database server. I have a site collection containing some custom applications developed by SharePoint, Infopath and Workflow. User permissions are managed by AD group. 

Suddenly I saw there are no user groups or individual users exist in the custom application where a day before it was working fine. Each application has combination of group and individual permissions not inherited permission. It happened twice with my server. My AD is working fine.

Another thing, sometimes some user are not recognized by People Picker where they are exist in AD. It is happening for sometimes with some random users. I am just wondering if both of the issues are related.

Can anybody guide me how to resolve the problems?

Thanks in advance.

Error occured in deployment step "Retract solution": Access to the path c:\programdata\microsoft... is denied

$

I have noticed that sometimes when I deploy a particular WSP package from VS2010 using the "Deploy" option on the project I get this error message:

Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': Access to the path 'C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config\ed37e742-caeb-4cdb-8bd0-d4acde07822a\34da391f-b111-44ec-9548-b29ed7b0578b.xml.a28bb668-4cd8-41ed-9d45-ed137a9ae33c.tmp' is denied.

After this I can no longer use Visual Studio to retract or deploy the WSP package because it has already been retracted from my SharePoint site. But apparently Visual Studio still thinks the package is deployed. I have to use the add-spsolution cmdlet to re-add the package and after that I can retract it using Visual Studio again.

If I browse the content of the folder it contains a lot of .XML files and a few .TMP files. It appears that the last entry in the .TMP file indicates that the solution was successfully retracted, along with some metadata on the machine, user and site. Does anyone know why this problem occurs?
