Can BrowserLab test intranet sites ?

Hello
I want to use BrowserLab to test intranet sites, but I have no permission to access htdocs directly.
So I always download all html/image/css/js files to my local apache htdocs, then use BrowserLab to test them.
Is there any smart ways to test intranet sites ?
Chen

Hi Chen,
We've heard this type of request before (due to intellectual property or data privacy concerns, not speed), but I'm sorry to say that this is something we can't do right now due to licensing issues. On our servers we run licensed copies of the various OS's, browsers, and other types of software configured in very specific ways so that we can request and deliver the screenshots. Due to licensing concerns we are not allowed to redistribute all that software, and to come up with a set of instructions that would allow our users to set up their own copies of our server architecture would be an incredibly daunting task.
We have talked about ways we can make this happen in the future, but it is not going to be a capability we'll be able to add any time in the forseeable future for now.
Sorry I can't help,
Mark

Problem Using BrowserLab on an Intranet site.

I am trying to use BrowserLab to access an intranet site and I keep receiving the message that the URL is invalid. Is it possible to use this tool in this manner? I am not using Dreamweaver for development.

fyi : BrowserLab 1.4 in current release form since June of 2010 can be used on Intranet site when invoked from Dreamweaver CS5
one needs to set-up a DW site pointing to their intranet site (it should be fairly easy - if u are a Dreamweaver user)
please make sure u have "Local/Intranet" option selected in preview dropdown in Adobe BrowserLab Panel
u can also use live DW Live View to preview the page /state of your site (in case u are using a intranet CMS system or dynamic page asp, .php)...Wordpress, Drupal or Joomal
u can initiate then the preview , it will ask u to grant permission
once u grant permission , it should be able to preview intranet site & assets.
this functionality is integrated via the DW CS5 Integration/CSLive with BrowserLab 1.4 online hosted service (so u can sign-in within DW and hop directly into your preview).
the above steps enables one to preview sites on Intranet site
please try these steps , please let us know if u have further queries w.r.t to above workflow or any further guidance.
HTH,

Office 365 online Sharepoint (Business Premium) - pre-build intranet site that can be installed

Hello,
Is their any possibility to setup in the new Office 365 online a SharePoint with a pre-build intranet website?
Those options exists in many intranet systems. Example: in Bitrix24 their is possebility to start with a theme for intranet site. The basic theme includes: Several internal departments (Management, IT, Sales, HR ect), tasks by deparment, users groups (by
department) with permissions for each departments, news feed by department ect.
Is their any pre-build option with a simple intranet configuration?
Sometimes it is much easier to configure when using a common simple company structures.
Thank you

Hi,
For SharePoint Online backup and restore, there are basically 4 options:
Use the recycle bin and version history.
Use a 3rd party tool for backup and restore (there are several).
Manually backup sites, lists, and libraries (see:
Information about manual migration of SharePoint Online content and
How to back-up an Office 365 SharePoint Online site and data)
Create an Office 365 support request (see:
Restore options in SharePoint Online)
For more information,you can have a look at the blog:

KB2909210 on Server 2008 R2 breaks my intranet sites and print dialog box

Let's try this again. I have been asking the following question of Microsoft and every time I do, I have only been told to try another forum.
I have several intranet sites that my users use for various data entry and querying purposes. I installed Internet Explorer 10 onto my 2008 R2 Terminal Server over this past weekend (10/18/2014) which also installed the Security Update KB2909210
and rebooted the server. On Monday morning (10/20/2014), when my terminal users logged into the sites, the sites began malfunctioning. All the dropdown arrows turned into question marks. Some fields which normally have a small "x"
on the right-hand side used to erase the data entered in the text field were also displaying as question marks. The objects still functioned but it was disconcerting to my users. The update also slowed down these same intranet sites to where it
began interfering with productivity. I activated Compatibility View for all intranet sites, but it did not resolve the problem.
I also found that when my terminal users tried to print a pdf document from the intranet sites, the print dialog box was jumbled and no fields were pre-populated with data like they always are when printing. I updated to the latest Adobe Reader, but
the print dialog box remained jumbled.
All of my users with stand-alone PCs have IE 10 installed and the intranet sites work fine. The sites display properly and process quickly, and the print dialog box is not jumbled. It is only my terminal users who log in from a thin client
to their profiles on the server and use the IE version installed on the server who have the problem with IE10. The KB2909210 Update is not installed on, and does not come up as, an update for any of my stand-alone Windows 7 PCs.
I uninstalled IE 10 from my server, but since this was one of my production servers, I could not restart it until after the plant was shut down for the evening forcing my users to suffer with the slowness for the day. This morning (10/21/2014) the
intranet sites are working fine through IE 9. I also had to revert back to Adobe Reader v9.5 as the v11 (and v10) print dialog box does not display properly in IE 9.
I do not want to stay on IE 9 on my server as IE9 gets more un-secure by the day and we've found IE 11, on any of our machines, to be too buggy.
How can I install IE 10 with its security updates and prevent it from breaking my intranet sites and print dialog box? What is so different about Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 that IE 10 causes this corruption of intranet sites and the print dialog
box on the Server but not on the Win 7 machines?
The bulletin here:
https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms14-011
is useless for determining why it breaks my intranet sites. Nor does it explain why the update destroys the print dialog box.

Hi,
In my opinion, it's hard to say your problem caused by KB2909210. Have you tried to uninstall this update for test if your intrant site's problem resolved?
If your problem truthfuly caused by this updates, you can choose to hid the update as a workaround method.

When accessing Intranet sites that use SSL Certificates issued by our internal PKI, FF for Windows give an error of "improperly formatted DER-encoded message"

When accessing Intranet sites with that have SSL Certificates issued by our internal PKI, FF for Windows gives an error messsage - An error occurred during a connection to myshaw. security library: improperly formatted DER-encoded message. (Error code: sec_error_bad_der)
Chrome and IE work fine. This is a new PKI using the SHA-2 signature algorithm.

Hi Guigs2,
From the other post you link too, I can confirm that both the Root and Subordinate CA have been commissioned with the:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\CertSvc\Configuration\IssuingCA\CSP\AlternateSignatureAlgorithm = 1
registry key set. As can be seen above, the Signature algorithm on an issued certificate is RSASSA-PSS. This is been Microsoft suggested deployment IF you do not wish to support either XP or Windows 2003 machine and lower. In fact, I believe the option has been around since Windows 2008, however, there were of course, a lot more XP machines back then.
The obvious answer is that we would like to maintain the updated algorithm, AND see support for it added for Firefox. I think you will see a LOT more posts like this as people deploy more 2012 PKI infrastructure supporting only Windows 7 and up. Heavens, we may well be forced to Chrome or even back to IE!!! Whilst I do not what to necessary open up other potential vulnerabilities, for the sake of testing, what do you mean by disabling mozilla:pkix?

Issue with Internet facing site and Intranet sites

Hello All,
I have migrated the SP2013 environment using database attach method for our intranet site. We also working on the
SP2013 Internet facing site using the same content database as Internet site.
When I extended the web application for Internet facing site, zone to
Internet and these are the URLs: The Intranet website URL is
https://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx (Root Site) and
SP2013 Internet facing site http://contoso.com (not a root site and publishing site template)
However, I found on the http://contoso.com users can still access the
http://contoso.com/SitePages/home with same content as Intranet.
After done some Google search, bloggers mentioned to have move https://intranet.contoso.com/SitePages/home.aspx to another site collection so that Internet facing site can exist root site.
Can 2 we have to two root sites in same web application? I need the content database to be same so that managers can check
Internet facing site and after signing into SP2013, redirects to
Internet site.
Which is the best option to achieve this with same content database.
Please advice.
Regards,
Aroh
Aroh Shukla

Business Requirement:
Content Managers want to control internal Internet site (https://intranet.contoso.com) (with default zone, port 443, Root site) and also want to have SP2013 Internet site (with Internet zone
http://www.contoso.com (not a root site and publishing site template)), Anonymous access at Web Application level. I configured the site architecture
to have intranet zone as default zone and extended Web Application for Internet facing site with Anonymous site. This the current site architecture
Because content managers do not want to duplicate public site (Internet facing site) with will be shared with some lists that are stored in intranet site.
For e.g. a sub site named “News and Events” will be shared with Public site as well as Internet users. Therefore, if a manger wants to update a list in the public site, it should reflect in intranet site as well. Thus, managers
don’t want to have separate database but same content database.
Problem:
I have extended web application to have different Internet zone, the site URL looks this: http://www.contoso.com/sites/public with publishing template and Anonymous access. Managers want to have public site URL to be just
http://www.contoso.com and not   http://www.contoso.com/SitePages/Home.aspx. As I am using path based site collection for extending site collection, I am
getting this URL http://www.contoso.com/SitePages/Home.aspx
We also tried host named site collection, but it does not provide anonymous access and keep on asking for user credentials.
Q1: We want to have Intranet and Public site with same content database as per business requirements, Shall I following link       http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/81172/moving-content-db-for-a-site-collection-to-another-db-server?
Q2: Because I am constrained that I don’t want to have separate web application, (I know, its not regular requirement), how could achieve this requirements?
Q3: Do have to completely re-design web site architecture, with
www.contoso.com as main web application, then copy Intranet site collection and move this to
www.contoso.com/intranet using
Move-SPSite command
Any kind of pointer and help will be highly appreciated as I am struggling for 2 weeks to solve this.

How to Connect My Intranet Site to the Office's Server

Hi,
My boss recently wanted me to create an "intranet" site for the office. it bascially is supposed to be a one webpage with llinks to different folders on the server for greater ease for the sales reps. What are the steps to link the buttons on my page to these folders on the server?
i can link buttons to folders on my desktop, but not the folders on my desktop that are connected to the server.
Thanks,
Matt

I used the path you suggested and was directed to a screen saying I was not authorized to view the page. So I'm assuming it's a matter of my web admin granting the intranet i created access to these links?
Thanks,
Matt

Windows authentication on Intranet site on IIS8.5 works when using the IP of the site, but not the URL.

I have an intranet website on server 2012R2 with IIS8.5.
When I access the site by IP address, the site prompts for windows authentication and it only permits access to the areas the logged in user is allowed.
When I access the site by URL, Firefox prompts for authentication and gives the correct access, but when I access the URL from IE or Chrome, the site never prompts for credentials and the entire site is wide open to anyone.
I have anonymous authentication disabled, Windows authentication enabled, and basic authentication enabled, set to default to our domain, so the user doesn't have to type domain\username.
I left the site bindings open, because when I bind to an IP or host name, the intranet site stops working.
Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong???

When I access the site by URL, Firefox prompts for authentication and gives the correct access, but when I access the URL from IE or Chrome, the site never prompts for credentials
and the entire site is wide open to anyone.
Are you accessing the site from a domain-joined workstation? It's possible that it looks wide open because IE and Chrome are using your existing Windows credentials without any prompting, whereas Firefox is not automatically using these creds so is prompting.

I would re ask this in a different forum as this is a Small business server forum and I'm assuming you aren't running that platform?
Or call 1-800-microsoft and issues with a security patch are ultimately comp'd back to you.
This re-asking in forum after forum after forum is ridiculous! When someone else has this problem and searches for it, they will get several useless results with the only responses being to ask in another forum.
This was originally posted in the Microsoft Community forum. The MS Forum Moderator over there advised I should post it here and gave a link in her response. God forbid she had just moved it to the correct forum as I've seen done on countless
other forums!

Can't open file "~/sites/index.html." in iWeb09

I have been searching through posts and I have noticed some that are very similar to this question, but are not exactly related. My domain file worked fine before upgrading to iWeb09. Now I get the error: can't open file "~/sites/index.html." Has anyone found a way to import the iWeb08 domain file into version 09?
Nice job Apple! How can you release a product that does not correctly import or update the file from the previous version(s)? There is no way that you could have missed this in testing...

You will never be able to open this file with iWeb, because, as it states it is a User/Sites/index.html file and iWeb cannot open this files - anything with html on the end of it is already published and iWeb cannot open this. It is not the same as your domain file.
Go to User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and try opening your domain file, rather than something that is already published. iWeb cannot import - at least not published pages.

How can I determine what sites are being referenced within Central Admin Upgrade and Migration Manage Databases Upgrade Status?

When I go to Central Admin > Upgrade and Migration > Manage Databases Upgrade Status, I have 2 content databases which have the status:
Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded.
How can I determine which sites are not completely upgraded?

Manage Databases Upgrade Status will provide you all active and offline DB details, you can get same result
using below PowerShell cmdlet.
Get-SPDatabase and Get-SPContentDatabase will provide all active database/Content DB in Farm which include Service application db, central admin DB.
Get-SPDatabase | Format-Table Name, ID
Coming back to your question, if you find that there are some site are not completely upgraded then run below command and understand the cause if issue on specific DB.
Test-SPContentDatabase WSS_ContentDB_Name
If you find any missing file issue in DB then resolve these issue to upgrade content database.
(verify all customizations referenced within the content database are also installed in the web application. This cmdlet can be issued
against a content database currently attached to the farm, or a content database that is not connected to the farm )
Use the Upgrade-SPContentDatabase cmdlet
to resume a failed database upgrade or begin a build-to-build database upgrade against a SharePoint content database
Upgrade-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content

Allow/Block dialog comes up even when sites are in Trusted Sites and/or Intranet sites.

I have an issue where a user is prompted with an "Allow or Block" dialog everytime she clicks a link within a company created PDF. The links all go to intranet sites, which are defined in the intranet section, and even placed in tnhe Trusted Sites as well. How can I stop this dialog from popping up each time?
Software versions in play are:
Acrobat X
Windows 7
IE 9
TIA for any assistance.

Please be more specific.
How are the servers defined in the Trust Manager and the OS Internet Options Control Panel?
http://mycompanyserver.mycompanyname.com
But does the link in the PDF file look something like this:
http://mycompanyserver/pathtothePDFfile/thePDFfile.pdf
If so, then Acrobat and Windows are probably not seeing it as the same server. The FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) is not defined as the same server.
The same would be said for a server that had "https://" in front of the URL. It's not considered the same server because it exists on a different port number. Usually 443 for https.

How can I test a Servlet?

Hello!
I want to test a small part of a servlet. That part connects to a database through a DataSource which is obtained in this manner:
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup(dsLookup);
conn = ds.getConnection();Details about the servlet: runs on a WebSphere application server with db2 database. Runs on the local server in our intranet and I create a Java project in Eclipse with Create project from existing source: path to location on server.
It's really annoying to start the browser, get to the page I'm interested, make the neccesary request and then see what happens in my code.
What I've learned so far:
I can't test it in a main function because I can't get the context. I tried setting the context's properties, still no go.
I found this: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/08/0219_jadhav/
but I got lost when it came to adding the resource reference to the project. How can one do that in Eclipse?
Can anyone please, please, pretty please with sugar on top, explain to me how I can do this?
Thank you very much for your time,
Iulia

Thank you for your prompt reply. I still have some questions:
You say that configuration must go in the web.xml file. I don't have that file. In the tutorial example one application is a Java project the other is an application client and the other is an EAR of the application client. Neither of them have a web.xml file. So where do I set the resource?
Do I have to have a WebSphere application server installed on my local machine?Where and how do I run the servlet?
Thank you,
Iulia

2 different intranet site with 10.4.5

Hi,
I am trying to do the following :
host 2 different intranet websites. If you type intranet1.school.edu, you get the 1st intranet, and if you type intranet2.school.edu, you get the 2nd one.
These websites are not public, they don't need to be seen from the outside, juste within my lan.
I have setup the DNS, and created 2 sites, in two different folders, both hosted in my /Library/Webserver/Documents/intranet1 and /Library/Webserver/Documents/intranet2
If i type one of the two addresses, i get the same website.
Now, here are my settings :
intranet 1 :
Address -> intranet1.school.edu
IP address -> any
port -> 80
intranet2 :
Address -> intranet2.school.edu
IP address -> any
port -> 80
I have already tried the following :
set the intranet1 IP to 10.xxx.xxx.1
set the intranet1 IP to 10.xxx.xxx.2
--> i get the "NSURLErrorDomain:-1005" error
set the intranet1 IP to "*"
set the intranet2 IP to "*"
--> i get the same website both times
set the intranet1 port to "80"
set the intranet2 port to "81"
--> no more effect...
I have setup my DNS to match intranet2.school.edu to IP 10.xxx.xxx.2, but i cannot reach my websites.
I have tried to reach my websites with FireFox, everytime i made a different configuration.
I definitely need help !
Thanx

Apache is fully capable of handling those 2 sites on one address. It's called Name Based Virtual Hosting. Your DNS can point both intranet[12] to the one address and Apache will look at the request and decide which VirtualHost will be used. If you use an IP address, then Apache will serve either the default VirtualHost or the first VirtualHost that is defined in it's configuration file.
I'm not sure how to set all this up with ServerAdmin (I edit the files by hand), so I can't get more specific.
