Sharepoint 2016 - Timed out error - Creating new web application
rom time to time I am unable to create a new web app. It has been an ongoing issue since SP Foundation 2013, we've upgraded to SP 2016 earlier in the year and this problem is still here. As we add more web application sites, the problem seems to come up more often. The site doesn't get fully created on the server. There is a virtual directory without any contents. We're tried adjusting the app pool timers as described in the URL below. It works sometimes, then months later when we try to create another web app it fails. https://www.spguides.com/request-timed-out-sharepoint-web-application/ We've tried various timer settings from 300 - 4000, 1500, 9999 etc. Tried it on the default app pool and central admin pool. Rebooting the application server and database server doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated thanks
While creating SharePoint group using Rest api, getting Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException with Error
Actual Error: body : "{"error":{"code":"-2146232060, Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException","message":{"lang":"en-US","value":"Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131904"}}}" statusCode : 500 statusText : "Internal Server Error". Scenario: Actually In SharePoint online, By Rest API, My SharePoint Hosted app will create new list item and following that, create two groups, group 1 created successfully, while creating group 2 getting this above mentioned general error: 500 Internal server error. Sample Code: var metadata = JSON.stringify({ "__metadata": { "type": "SP.Group" }, "Title": "Group2 Members", "Description": "Group2 Members", "OnlyAllowMembersViewMembership": false, "AllowMembersEditMembership": true }); var url = CG_AppWebUrl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)" + "/web/SiteGroups?" + "@target='" + CG_HostWebUrl + "'" executor.executeAsync({ url: url, method: "POST", async: false, body: metadata, headers: { "content-type": "application/json; odata=verbose", "accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" }, contentType: 'application/json', success: function (data) { callback("Created"); }, error: function (data) { callback("Error"); } App has Full Control permission in Site collection, Web and List. Executing User has Site collection admin access. Note: This issue is not coming continuously, Randomly it is coming for different users with different roles. Early I thought error occurred due to permission issue for different users, but now site collection admin user also getting this issue. And also I try to reproduce the issue by sending long group name, empty string in group name, same group name which gave for group 1, but the issue is not reproducing. Anyone please give some alternate idea to reproduce the 500 internal serve error in SharePoint Hosted app. Thanks in advance.
