SharePoint 2010 and Office 2013 Can't edit documents

February 15, 2013, 3:04 am

Hello

I have built a desktop image with Office 2013. I am receiving the following error when I click on a document in a SharePoint library and click "Edit in Microsoft Word" (the problem is not limited to Word):

The document could not be opened for editing. A Microsoft SharePoint Foundation compatible application could not be found to edit the document.

I have tried the following:

  • Ensuring the "WebClient" service is running
  • Ensuring the site is in the "Local Intranet" zone
  • Checking the "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" add-on is loaded
  • Making sure Internet Explorer is not running in 64-bit mode
  • Manually re-registering OWSSUPP.DLL
  • Ensuring the SharePoint Foundation integration components are installed
  • Repairing Microsoft Office

The document sometimes loads succesfully but not always. When it will and won't load seems quite random. I am at a complete loss as to why this is!

I am running the following on my client:

  • Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 (x64)
  • Office Professional Pro Plus 2013 (VL)

If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate this.

Regards

Peter

Authentication with two domains

I have read some of the related posts on this topic, but I would like some additional clarification / understanding if possible since I am new to this. Our scenario is that we have a portal (SP 2010) that is accessible from the Internet via a FQDN. The portal is in our "student" domain, but our employees in the "staff" domain need to authenticate to and use the portal also. From what I have read so far, it appears that if there is a two-way trust between the two domains, then it should work "as-is". But what if we don't have or want a two-way trust (doesn't that pose security issues)? Is that where "ADFS" comes in? Is our concern with a two-way trust unwarranted? Thanks for any help.

Best regards, Michael

P2V Production to Dev Environment

I know this has been done and I've spent a good bit of time reading about it and instead of finding a clear answer I've found multiple methods, usually based on the needs of testing/dev.  I'm unclear at this point what the best practice is.

We're building a new Hyper V server for development.  Right now we just have one dev server.  We have multiple independent production sp2010 farms.  When we set up that Dev server, we installed SP and patched it, then the dev guys created the web application and site collection, then they used SP to backup the site (while the production site is in read-only mode) then restored it on the dev machine.

This has been sufficient so far but obviously there are dangers to multiple people developing against one web server.

With the new Hyper V server we were, at a very high level, just planning to P2V copies of production.  As soon as I really started thinking it through though there are allot of complexities, like service accounts, duplicate server names, virtual's possibly attempting to talk to production server, etc etc.

I've seen some information about creating a completely segregated network, but that gives us issues with moving files, server access, etc etc.

What's the best way to mimic production in a virtual environment for the purpose of code development?

user profile store synch with oracle.

Note: SharePoint 2013/Oracle BCS integration

My customer is having AD where the employees loginid is stored. They also have oracle Database there all the properties of the user profile are stored. Now we are doing some kind of content targeting, for that we need to retreive certain properties like Country, Business, Region of the user. These properties are stored in oracle DB.

Can someone guide me with step by step up approach to do the same.

What i Have found out (after reading some article)

1) Open SPD and create an external content type(not sure if this works for oracle)

2) Create a connection to that external content type in Central admin.

3) Do the sync so that these new data are populated in the profile store.

I do understand that the exact step by step process is for a beginner but it will really help me as I am really short of time and new to this section. Links to the complete step by step article will be really beneficial. I do see some code activity in some article but not sure where to use that.

Thanks Ba$va

SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot on SharePoint 2010

Hi, quick question:

Is there anyway to have the SQL Server PowerPivot instance running on a SQL server rather a SharePoint server when we are using a SharePoint 2010 farm?  I know with SharePoint 2013 that is perfectly viable as we can specify the PowerPivot server in the excel services options - and that server doesn't even have to be a farm member.

Is this possible at all, or the SQL server PowerPivot instance in SharePoint 2010 must run on a SharePoint server? If it's possible, can you please describe in a nutshell the required process?

This post reflects my opinion on this specific thread. It does not necessarily represent my employer's opinion.

Find out what account was used to administer TFS' SharePoint

I recently took over a location and all the admins are now gone.  People are requesting access to TFS' Sharepoint site and I don't have access to it, even though I am a domain admin of their AD.

How do I find out what account had admin access to the SharePoint site and change it?

Server is running TFS 2010, so I'm assuming the integrated Sharepoint is 2010 as well.

SharePoint 2010: Backup strategy for a SharePoint farm in cluster

June 19, 2013, 3:00 am

Hi,

I have a SharePoint 2010 farm, with two SharePoint servers in active/active mode and a cluster Database server.

We need to decide on the backup strategy for this farm. What should be the best approach?

If I go for full farm backup- then what needs to be done from configuration part with respect to cluster,i.e. do I need to configure the backup explicitly on one of the SharePOint servers, or will it automatically take place on both the servers? What if my one of the active SP server goes down, what will happen to my backup job?

If we go for database backup, then, what extra needs to be taken care of with respect to SharePoint?

Which of the two is recommended? or is there any other bettersh approach?

Hi,

I am facing a strange issue while taking farm backup, I tried both the options full back with content and taking configurations only. I didn't get any status of backup status page, that was totally at its initial state and the backup was continue running without any error. The total size of backup was about 50GB, the shareed location has full read/write acccess and have the enough free space about 270GB. I didn't see anything in log files. The shared location which I created is in DB server not in CA server. The CPU & Memory usage are very much normal. I dont know why its happening.

The help on this above issue get appriciated.

Thanks

Sharepoint Discussion Board Issue - Not seeing replies to own sharepoint discussion

June 19, 2013, 2:49 pm

Hello,

I have a Sharepoint Discussion Board (read items user created only, enabled) with 2 users with contribute rights and  1 user with full control rights. When a user with contribute rights creates a discussion, he is able to see it, and so is the full control rights user.  Now the problem is that when the full control rights user replies to it, the original user who created the discussion cannot see the reply.  I've checked the permissions over and over and I don't know what the problem is.

It seems like it's a SharePoint restriction so I thought I could create a workflow to change users' permissions.  So in SharePoint Designer 2010, I created a list Workflow for this discussion board.  Workflow settings are: start workflow automatically when an item is created and changed.  Now, I created an impersonation step and inside the step I added an action to replace the permissions (from contribute to design) to the Current Item.  However, this did not give a desired result.  I've also tried inserting a condition so that when an item is a reply (Content type id is message) then change permissions.  However, this didn't work either.  I was wondering if it was possible to create a workflow to allow users to see replies to their own posts and how it could be done. 

Any help is appreciated!

SharePoint Foundation 2010 and object cache accounts

March 14, 2013, 6:00 am

Hi,

What I understand the object cache feature is a part of the SharePoint Server 2010 and used by the publishing feature which means that in SharePoint Foundation 2010 creation of the object cache accounts (Super Reader and Super User) is not required?

In that case is there an explanation for the following entries in the ULS log of an SharePoint Foundation 2010 (Search Server Express) installation:

03/14/2013 12:33:03.21 w3wp.exe (0x131C) 0x0AECWeb Content Management    Publishing Cache       7363CriticalObject Cache: The super reader account utilized by the cache does not have sufficient permissions to SharePoint databases. To configure the account use the following command 'stsadm -o setproperty -propertyname portalsuperreaderaccount -propertyvalue account -url webappurl'. It should be configured to be an account that has Read access to the SharePoint databases.  Additional Data:  Current default super reader account: NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICEe3e2da61-d046-45de-bb99-36bad2236f72

Hi there,

I have created a team site on SharePoint 2013 and saved it as a template. I have created a hierarchy of sub-sites for the that page on the first day and everything was going ok so far while the "An error occurred while processing request on the server. The status code returned from the server was: 0" error appeared on the following day. At the beginning I had an issue with Search Engines but then I just activated the "Search Engine Sitemap" and  "Search Server Web parts and Templates" flags under Site Collection Administration settings tab. I read about lots of similar issues but could not find the one which says that the status code returned was: 0. Did anyone face this problem? I would appreciate your answer.

Many thanks

Nazgul
