Re: "Check Permission" shows "None" for users added in Sharepoint 2013 via AD security Group
This is a pretty common problem, but there could be multiple causes. A good overview and a list of possible solutions can be found at: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/spjr/2017/09/05/sharepoint-troubleshooting-check-permissions/ Another useful resource is this article: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/tehnoonr/2017/07/02/sharepoint-2013-check-permissions-and-doesuserhavepermissions-internals9.7KViews0likes0CommentsHybrid sites problem in SharePoint 2013
One of my customers ran the hybrid configuration wizard with success, but their users are unable to use the hybrid sites functionality: whenever they follow a site, they get a 401 error in the logs: FollowedContent.FollowItem:Exception:System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. All users have SharePoint Online licenses assigned to them in Office 365 and identity synchronization has been configured. In the on-premises farm the trust has been configured as the ACS service application proxy, the SPTrustedSecurityIssuer and the matching root authority certificates are all in place. They also activated hybrid OneDrive and Profiles, and that seems to work - although that's just a redirect of course and not a CSOM call... They are using SharePoint Server 2013 with the October 2017 cumulative update. Any ideas?1.5KViews0likes2CommentsRe: the next higher version after SharePoint 2013 SP1
It is correct these updates are cumulative, but every update might introduce new problems. Normally it's a good idea to not install the latest update, but a previous one. For example: you might want to use the December 2017 update.1.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: hardware Config two-tier farm SharePoint 2013 in a Production Use
As far as memory goes, 12 GB is probably not going to cut it - especially because you only have a single server in your farm. I would at least double that to 24 GB, also for the SQL Server. You also want to have at least one additional drive in your SQL Server for data and logs. Having those on the C drive is not a good idea.1.6KViews2likes0CommentsRe: Hybrid Search - No Result
If you don't see any results in your SharePoint Online search center, you might want to be sure you are logged on to SPO with a user that has access to the on-premises content - as security trimming may prevent you from seeing the results. You might also want to try to issue a query "IsExternalContent=1" in SharePoint Online. This should return you all on-premises results (again, security trimming applies). Do you get any results? If you're logging on with the right user and you still don't have any results, there was probably still a problem with the crawl. Try setting the "Crawler:Azure Plugin" logging category to Verbose, run a crawl again and verify the log files.1.8KViews1like0CommentsRe: automatic recreation of service applications after deletion
Service applications will never be created automatically. What you are referring to are the service instances, which - in the MinRole concept - can be made to start automatically on specific servers where in the past you had to start them by yourselves on the servers you wanted. If you delete a service application, you will always need to recreate it manually. Service applications are logical containers which primarily hold configuration and security information. For most service applications you still need some physical components to be activated in order to do the actual work - those are the service instances. They can be started on one or more servers, and in the case of MinRole, can be started automatically for you if they are stopped.794Views0likes1Comment
