Project online / cloud and integration with SharePoint.
Greetings!
I am new user to the project online and trying to understand differences / options for cloud offering.
If we need to use Cloud for project and portfolio management, do we use need to purchase project pro with sharepoint cloud.
What are the option features? Is there a reference document explaining the offering?

Project Pro 2013 and syncing with SharePoint Online 2013 (Office 365)
Good day,
I am experiencing some challenges with a Project Pro master project file and syncing to SharePoint 2013 (Office 365).
What works
Individual projects can be synced to SharePoint without issue. Once synced, the site start page presents the Project Summary gant, clicking the Tasks link takes me to the tasks. Project files are stored in the Site Assets directory in each SharePoint site
(one site per project file).
What doesn't work
When I create a new project (and sync it to a new site), then add two (2) existing project files that reside on SharePoint and then sync to the new master project site I
don't see any content in the Project Summary gant, nor do I see any tasks in the task list. I can't figure out if this is not supported or if I've done something wrong. There are no error messages or indicators that I've done something wrong,
short of the master project projects not showing up on the master project site (nothing in the project summary gant and no tasks).
Some help would be greatly appreciated. Being able to render a master project is crucial to understanding timelines for many projects in a single view.Steven,
This is by design. Inserted Sub projects will NOT show in the Master Project Tasks list. You will only see tasks inserted directly at the Master Project Level.
Moreover, if you set up a dependency between Master project Task and Subproject task, then the sync will not work. All in all, there are limitations for this process, which is where Project Online/Project Server needs to be considered.

SSRS 2012 integrated with Sharepoint 2013, subscription and impersonation
Hello,
We are configuring SSRS 2012 integrated with Sharepoint 2013. The reports are connecting to SSAS cubes via shared Datasources. We have defined user based roles and security in the cubes and would like to pass the effective username to the cubes when they
access data via reports.
Also we need to create subscriptions on these reports to run on either daily/weekly or monthly schedule and send email to a list of users.
How do we configure our Datasources on sharepoint so both could be acheived.
Our Database and Sharepoint are on different servers.
Thanks
DeepakHi Deepak
For your first question:
while configuring the datasource in SharePoint, check the option 'Set execution context to this account' in the settings. This will pass the effective user name to the cubes.
Thanks

Solution Manager 7.1 Integration with Sharepoint
Hello,
We are trying tio implement Solution docuemtnation in Solution manager 7.1 integrated with Sharepoint. Need any suggestion or guidence to integrate Solution MAnager with Share point.
We want to store docuemtn in share point and would like to provide a link of this docuemnt in Solution MAnager.
Regards,
BAIs it possible that i can give a url of solution amanager project in portal or in some other frontend from where I can access the docuemtn availablle in the perticulat project in SM using th url. ( without SAP GUI)
A project specific iview maybe if you are using SAP Portal? I have not tried it myself, so I cannot elaborate on the topic.
But project specific documents (if they are being uploaded to MOSS and only web-linked in SolMan) should just be locked/read only and can be access controlled using MOSS security as well. So I wonder why the complication of providing it to everyone on a Portal link, when the webfront end for MOSS should provide you the link and the content can be controlled using MOSS security
Also apart from MOSS is it possibel to use TREX as an search engine.
This would be a possible disadvantage, but you are not missing out on much, because MOSS's context based search is actually better, and i ssay this from personal experience.
Hope that Helps!

SSRS 2012 report integrated with SharePoint 2013 issue :Report refreshing after some idle time
we have SSRS 2012 report integrated with SharePoint 2013 , when we click on any toggle item after some idle time of 60 secs and try again to expand
another toggle item then complete report is getting refreshed and if we are in child report it is redirecting to parent report. . we didn’t set any refreshing property at report level. I hope there will be some idle time setting at sharepoint site
level.
what we observed.
1. there is no problem when we expand toggle items without any idle time.
2. when we open the report and expand few toggles and keep idle for 60 seconds and try
again to expand another toggle item then complete report is getting refreshed (all toggle items are collapsing).
3. If you keep idle for 60 minutes and if you didn’t do any action like expanding toggle
items it is not refreshing.
why it is happening and how to stop that complete refresh.
Surendra ThotaHi Surendra,
I have tested on my local environment and the issue can be caused by the session time out ,the time out of the report precessing, database timeout,DataSet query execution timeout and so on.
I would like to confirm that the refresh you have mentioned is the page refresh or the report reloading?
Please reference to the setting below to don't limit the timeout values if you got the report reloading:
Point to a report in the library.
Click the down arrow, and select Manage processing options.
In Processing Time-out, select Do not time out report processing or
Limit report processing in seconds if you want to override that value with no time-out or different time-out values.
If you got the session timeout that refresh the page, please reference to the setting in below article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg492284.aspx#bkmk_session_settings_section
Details information in the article below about the timeout setting for your reference:

Error while running SSRS 2012 report integrated with SharePoint 2013
Hi,
Our reporting services environment has SSRS 2012 integrated with SharePoint 2013. The SharePoint 2013 farm has 2 web front ends, 1 app server and a separate server for reporting services i.e SSRS 2012 .
We have created a https web application in SharePoint 2013 and all the SSRS 2012 reports are deployed into a "Report Library" residing in its root site collection.
The simple reports are running well. But there is a report where we have 3 multi-value parameters. On running this report in IE or Chrome, we get the error "Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the
server could not be parsed. Common causes for this error are when the response is modified by calls to Response.Write(), response filters, HttpModules, or server trace is enabled. Details: Error parsing near ' <!DOCTYPE html PUB'."
Some of the forums suggested to add the below entry in the web config of the SharePoint web app where the SSRS reports are deployed. We did that too, still the error is appearing. Please can anyone help .
<appSettings>
<add key="aspnet:MaxHttpCollectionKeys" value="100000" />
</appSettings>

Acrobat Reader integration with SharePoint 2007
Hi,
We have been having some major issues with people opening PDF files from document libraries in MOSS 2007.
Firstly in v9.x we find that only one user can access a PDF file at a time because it automatically opens the file as editable. This isn't a problem, however when another user tries to open it instead of being asked to open a read only\local copy, they just get an access violation error. We have found that sometimes even though a user has closed the file, the access violation errors continue and the only way round it is to copy the file locally, delete the original and then copy it back up to the document library.
I see that version X has been written to include much better integration with SharePoint. However our company policy is that we do not use check in\check out, so i'd like to disable this prompt. I've found this article which seems to have instructions on how to do it, however the registry change does not seem to have made any difference. I notice that on that article is says "DO NOT PUBLISH THE DOCUMENT EXTERNALLY UNTIL 10.1 SHIP". I'm unsure whether this is a typo and it's meant to be 10.01 which has recently been released or whether this article should not yet be available.
Has anyone managed to get the registry change working?
Cheers
JamesHi,
I was going to move this to a more appropriate forum but I'm not clear on where to try. Can you repost this under the Reader forum as well as on http://answers.acrobatusers.com/?

Issue with connection SSRS reportviewer control to SSRS 2012 integrated with SharePoint 2010...
Hi,
I have a .NET application that uses SSRS ReportViewer 2012 control to render reports deployed on SSRS 2012 integrated with SharePoint 2010. I am getting error "the report execution '' has expired or not found". The same code works when I connect
to SSRS 2008 R2 integrated with SharePoint 2007. I investigated the issue and it seems the JavaScript that pings the SSRS server before it expires is missing from rendered HTML.
Let me know if there is a way to fix this issue.
following is the code:
ASPX:
<formid="form1"runat="server">
<rsweb:ReportViewerAsyncRendering="true"
KeepSessionAlive="true"ID="test"runat="server"></rsweb:ReportViewer>
<asp:scriptmanagerrunat="server"></asp:scriptmanager>
</form>
Code Behind:
if(!IsPostBack)
this.Session.Clear();
test.Reset();
test.ProcessingMode =
ProcessingMode.Remote;
test.KeepSessionAlive =
true;
test.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl =
newSystem.Uri("https://webappname/_vti_bin/reportserver/");
test.ServerReport.ReportPath =
https://webappname/RS_Reports/REportEngineTest.rdl;
ReportServerCredentialscred =
newReportServerCredentials();
test.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = cred;
report server credentials:
publicICredentialsNetworkCredentials
get
// Use default identity.
returnnewNetworkCredential("user",
"pwd",
"domain");What's the meaning of webappname, are you mean the sharepoint site?
I think this issue can be caused by the incorrect url. You can refer to the following link:

In the sense of using Incoming and Outgoing email, absolutely. But not for other things, like Site Mailboxes, which require Exchange 2013.

Sql server 2008 r2 reportserver integration with sharepoint 2010 datasource credential
hello,
I am using sharepoint 2010 and sql server 2008 r2 and integrated in sharepoint integration mode and i am using windows authentication ,not keberos ,so i deletd negotiate in authentication tag in rssharepoint.config file,but when i tried to create data source
i am getting credential error and when windows credential is used it is getting connected.
please help.
thanksHi Krishnakumar_DeV,
Based on the current description, I understand that you should use the Windows NTLM authentication and delete the Negotiatein in authentication tag from RSReportServer.config which is located in the folder “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web
Server Extensions\XX\WebServices\Reporting”. You can use a local account or domain account to connect report server, while there is credential error message when creating data source, right?
To narrow down the issue, I want to confirm some information below:
1. To connect to remote data source, we can specify the following credentials’ ways:
•Prompt the user for credentials
•Store credentials
•Use Windows integrated security
•Use no credentials
Which credential way is you using and what’s the detailed error message?
2. How do you create the data source?
If I have any misunderstanding, please feel free to contact me.

EchoSign integration with SharePoint online
Does anyone know if there is integration between SharePoint online and Adobe EchoSign as I have to demonstrate the use of EchoSign within an office 365 SharePoint environment.
The only installation guide I can find is specific to an on-premises deployment.There is a DocuSign integration for SharePoint Online, if you are still in the process of deciding which vendor to use.

Install instructions for Search Modeler and integrating with Apps 11i
Below are all the steps I took for creating integrating Search Modeler with an Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 ATG RUP 7 instance called ERNIE.
Much thanks to Oracle Support ( Rajesh Ghosh, Vikas Soolapani and Roger Ford), as this simply wouldn't have been possible without them.
There are a few things in this document that may not be pertinent to your environment if you're doing this. I've made attempts to clarify those possibly optional sections in the documentation.
I've broken the document down into the following multiple parts
o Setting up a new RedHat 4.8 x86 server called ausSEARCHdev (The server is in AUStin, TX, is dedicated to SEARCH, and is for our DEV environment)
o SES (Secure Enterprise Search 10.1.8.2 install
o SES 10.1.8.4 patchset install
o SES CPU patch apply
o Standalone OC4J and ADF installation
o Search Modeler installation and configuration
o Configure ERNIE Apps instance to be on valid self-signed SSL certificate
o Import ERNIE SSL certificate into SES and Search Modeler
using aussearchdev initially

So, creating a self signed SSL certificate for ERNIE EBS instance (this will not work if you use an SSL certificate for another server like say, PROD)
doing this on ausernieapp
openssl genrsa -des3 -out ausernieapp.key 1024
PEM key is ausernieapp
openssl req -new -key ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.csr
PEM key is ausernieapp
Country US
State Texas
Locality Austin
Organization Name Corporation
Organizational Unit Name Information Technology
Common Name ausernieapp.domainname.com
Email address [email protected]
No challenge password
No optional company name
Now let's remove the passphrase from the key
cp ausernieapp.key ausernieapp.key.orig
openssl rsa -in ausernieapp.key.orig -out ausernieapp.key
Now let's generate a self-signed certificate
openssl x509 -req -days 1000 -in ausernieapp.csr -signkey ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.crt
Install the private key and certificate
cd $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/ssl.crt

./searchctl startallBelow are all the steps I took for creating integrating Search Modeler with an Oracle E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 ATG RUP 7 instance called ERNIE.
Much thanks to Oracle Support ( Rajesh Ghosh, Vikas Soolapani and Roger Ford), as this simply wouldn't have been possible without them.
There are a few things in this document that may not be pertinent to your environment if you're doing this. I've made attempts to clarify those possibly optional sections in the documentation.
I've broken the document down into the following multiple parts
o Setting up a new RedHat 4.8 x86 server called ausSEARCHdev (The server is in AUStin, TX, is dedicated to SEARCH, and is for our DEV environment)
o SES (Secure Enterprise Search 10.1.8.2 install
o SES 10.1.8.4 patchset install
o SES CPU patch apply
o Standalone OC4J and ADF installation
o Search Modeler installation and configuration
o Configure ERNIE Apps instance to be on valid self-signed SSL certificate
o Import ERNIE SSL certificate into SES and Search Modeler
using aussearchdev initially
rh4 x86, default oracle build

Next need to install various oracle needed RPMs.

rpm -ivh perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-1.el4.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh libaio-devel-0.3.105-2.i386.rpm

So, creating a self signed SSL certificate for ERNIE EBS instance (this will not work if you use an SSL certificate for another server like say, PROD)
doing this on ausernieapp
openssl genrsa -des3 -out ausernieapp.key 1024
PEM key is ausernieapp
openssl req -new -key ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.csr
PEM key is ausernieapp
Country US
State Texas
Locality Austin
Organization Name Corporation
Organizational Unit Name Information Technology
Common Name ausernieapp.domainname.com
Email address [email protected]
No challenge password
No optional company name
Now let's remove the passphrase from the key
cp ausernieapp.key ausernieapp.key.orig
openssl rsa -in ausernieapp.key.orig -out ausernieapp.key
Now let's generate a self-signed certificate
openssl x509 -req -days 1000 -in ausernieapp.csr -signkey ausernieapp.key -out ausernieapp.crt
Install the private key and certificate
cd $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/conf/ssl.crt
cp server.crt server.crt.backup.03102010
chown applmgr:applmgr server.crt.backup.03102010

chown applmgr:applmgr server.key.backup.03102010
bounce apache as applmgr
cd /d01/oracle/erniecomn/admin/scripts/ERNIE_ausernieapp
./adapcctl.sh stop

Click on Certificate Error next to URL bar
Install Certificate -> Next-> Place all certificates in the following store -> trusted root certificate authorities ->finish
close browser, back to https://ausernieapp.domainname.com:8443
no errors,
Next step will be to import key into the SES and Search modelers
