    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")<br />

    Clicking OK or closing the box leads to a further delay of about 20 secs. after which the required action takes place! Of course, it could be said that it's really only a delay, so I should just get used to it, but it's still a malfunction, it's a pain in the neck or another region, and I really would like to cure it.

    We have already added the certificate used for the SharePoint site and the provider hosted app in the SharePoint central admin trusts.
    Any idea's how can I resolve this issue?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to access provider host app using https.
    The reason for this is that SharePoint implements its own certificate validation policy to override .NET certificate validation.
    Fix is to setup a trust between SharePoint and the server requiring certificate validation.
    For more information, you can refer to:

  • SharePoint Provided host app - The client webpart suddenly got removed

    I have SharePoint provided host app and it contains one client webpart. I have added that webpart one of the pages in site after deploying the app in site.
    Issue we are facing now:
    The client webpart suddenly got removed from the page and no one has modified the page to delete the webpart.
    And it is not listing in App parts while trying to add the webpart to page.
    Is there any way to trace this issue?
    Thanks,
    Surya 
    Thanks, Surya

    Hi Surya,
    Please try to restore page history per the article below:
    http://rules.ssw.com.au/ITAndNetworking/Rules-to-Better-Sharepoint-for-End-Users/Pages/VersionHistory.aspx
    If you need to dig out who changed it, you may check ULS log or audit log if you have audit feature enabled.

  • Sharepoint provider hosted app using angularjs

    I am working on a provider hosted app and trying to access the list item through REST call using angularjs. But I am not able to access the list. Is it possible to access the sharepoint list through REST call using angularjs in a provider hosted app?
    Below is the code for angular:
    var hostWebApp = angular.module('HostWebList', []);
    Service:
    hostWebApp.service('$SharePointJSOMService', function ($q, $http) {

            var hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPHostUrl"]);
            var appweburl = decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPAppWebUrl"]);
            var restQueryUrl = hostweburl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('ListName')/items";
            var executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(hostweburl);
            executor.executeAsync({
                url: restQueryUrl,
                method: "GET",

                error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
                    alert("request failed");
                    alert(textStatus);
    //getting -1003
                    alert(JSON.stringify(xhr));
    //{"responseAvailable":false,"body":,"Header":null}
                    deferred.reject(JSON.stringify(xhr));
            return deferred.promise;

    I don't know what is the problem. Can anybody walk me through the problem. will be great help.

    Your REST request must be authenticated. So you must send the access token in the authorization header along with your request. The following link explains how you can get the access token when you using a provider hosted app.

    Hi GuYumming,
    I have checked the Sharepoint site using Fiddler and my X-SharePointHealthScore stays consistently on 1, I have even refreshed the site and had the "(429) Too Many Requests" error happen right in front of me whilst Fiddler is running and when I look at the
    200 response for the Sharepoint site it is still showing "X-SharePointHealthScore: 1".
    I assume because of this I do not need to make any of the changes suggested in your article above?
    I have also been through the ULS logs and found the following 3 log entries that appear to relate to the issue but they do not really mean much to me so I am hoping that you can help:
    Begin CSOM Request ManagedThreadId=59, NativeThreadId=12476

    Hi,
    We are trying to deploy the provider hosted app in server environment . we are getting the "The remote server returned an error :(401) unauthorized" error after deploy the app in server.
    stack Trace:
    [webException:Te remote server returned an error:(401) UnAuthorized.]
    System.Net.HeepWebRequest.GetResponse().
    Followed the same MSDN steps , but sill same error. We have attached the certificate and using the same issuer ID in the app web.config.
    Verified the IIS setting and still getting the same error when we call the "Clientcontext.ExecuteQuery()" method.
    Same code is working fine in my Local dev environment.
    If anyone have idea about this issue, please let me know.
    Thank you,
    Mylsamy

    Hi ,Thank you for your response. We have tried all the options and everything is same (Client ID,Issuer ID...etc) and finally figured out the issue.The below link saved my day.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn762439(v=office.15).aspxIn "TokenHelper.cs" GetRealmFromTargetUrl method always return null andWhen we analyze the issue we found some variable name assigned for "Realm" Instead of GUID in SP server.Power shell command to get the Realm in SP server:  Get-SPAuthenticationRealmWe have followed below article to generate the new GUID for realm.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219756(v=office.15).aspx$c =Get-SPServiceContext -Site "http://<websiteurl>"Set-SPAuthenticationRealm -ServiceContext $c -Realm "a686d436-9f16-42db-09b7-cb578e110ccd".
    Thankyou,Mylsamy

  • Unable to deploy the provider hosted app on sharepoint server !!!

    Hello,
    I have simply created the provider hosted app by assigning the issuer ID !
    Now, the SharePoint version of the app project is set as SharePoint Online.
    However, when I deploy this project to SharePoint site, it shows following error :
    Unknown SharePoint version: 16.0
    In order to resolve this I changed the SharePoint version as SharePoint 2013
    of the app project.
    Though , I am getting following error on deployment:
    The target version of the SharePoint site is 15.0.4569.1000, which is lower than the minimum supported SharePoint version of the app. To fix this, go to the SharePoint tab on the app for SharePoint project’s properties page, and change the Target
    SharePoint Version property to the version of the SharePoint site or lower.
    Would you please let me know how can I resolve this deployment error ?
    Note : I am using MVC web Application template for web project
    Thank you in advance.
    Kind Regards,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    Not sure, but this is straight.
    Project type - apps for sharepoint --> Enter URL --> select type as provider hosted app -->  MVC --> Authentication Option.
    Now when publishing the project  - SP App to SharePoint/Office Store  and web portion to any web server ( i generally do it in Azure).
    Thanks, Ashish | Please mark a post helpful/answer if it is helpful or answer your query.

  • How to get the current user name in Provider hosted app using appOnlyAccessToken

    Hi, 
    Please help me, how to get the HostWeb UserName in Provider Hosted App
    i have Provider hosted App, and Anonymous Authentication is enabled on AppWeb, using appOnlyAccessToken
    Below code does not return current user who Log in in hostweb, it is returning
    SharePoint App (app@sharepoint)
    Web web = clientContext.Web;
    clientContext.Load(web);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    clientContext.Load(web.CurrentUser);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    clientContext.Web.CurrentUser.LoginName;
    Below code gives a blank name when Anonymous Authentication is enabled, if Anonymous Authentication is disabled
    app prompts for credentials 
    HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name
    Thanks
    Ram

    Hi,
    Since you are using a provider Hosted app if you want to get the current logged in name than do not use AppOnlyAccessToken else use AccessToken which is App + user Context AccessToken.
    then 
    Web web = clientContext.Web;
    clientContext.Load(web);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    clientContext.Load(web.CurrentUser);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    clientContext.Web.CurrentUser.LoginName;will return proper user Name.
    HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name will never return the user as this object is related to IIS server of your App Server not sharepoint.you should set this as Anonymous in case of provider hosted app.you can download the below sample which uses the AccessToken which has user name in it.https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/Working-provider-hosted-8fdf2d95

  • SharePoint Provider Hosted App that can update existing SharePoint Task List

    Note: I am unable to take advantage of the Microsoft.SharePoint library directly. Adding a reference results in a 32bit/64bit library mismatch error.
    I have to find a solution that uses only the Microsoft.SharePoint.Client extension. 
    I am looking for example code where provider-hosted SharePoint App loads a SharePoint Task List View that allows users to interact with the tasks.
    So far I have only been able to programmatically create and then load the SharePoint tasks list, create and populate a DataTable object and set the datasource of a GridView object to that DataTable.
    I am unable to trigger my method linked to my checkbox within the gridview.
    Ideally I would like to just customize a Task View that already has this functionality.
    Here is my default.aspx.cs code-behind file:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Web;
    using System.Web.UI;
    using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
    using System.Data;
    using SP = Microsoft.SharePoint.Client;
    namespace SPAppBasicWeb
    public partial class Default : System.Web.UI.Page
    protected void Page_PreInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
    Uri redirectUrl;
    switch (SharePointContextProvider.CheckRedirectionStatus(Context, out redirectUrl))
    case RedirectionStatus.Ok:
    return;
    case RedirectionStatus.ShouldRedirect:
    Response.Redirect(redirectUrl.AbsoluteUri, endResponse: true);
    break;
    case RedirectionStatus.CanNotRedirect:
    Response.Write("An error occurred while processing your request.");
    Response.End();
    break;
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    // The following code gets the client context and Title property by using TokenHelper.
    // To access other properties, the app may need to request permissions on the host web.
    var spContext = SharePointContextProvider.Current.GetSharePointContext(Context);
    using (var clientContext = spContext.CreateUserClientContextForSPHost())
    //clientContext.Load(clientContext.Web, web => web.Title);
    //clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    //Response.Write(clientContext.Web.Title);
    SP.ClientContext cc = new SP.ClientContext("http://server/sites/devapps");
    SP.Web web = cc.Web;
    SP.List list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("General Tasks");
    SP.CamlQuery caml = new SP.CamlQuery();
    Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(caml);
    cc.Load<Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.List>(list);
    cc.Load<Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCollection>(items);
    //try
    //const int ColWidth = 40;
    cc.ExecuteQuery();
    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    dt.Columns.Add("Task Name", typeof(string));
    dt.Columns.Add("ID", typeof(int));
    foreach (Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItem liTask in items)
    DataRow dr = dt.NewRow();
    dr["Task Name"] = liTask["Title"];
    dr["ID"] = liTask["ID"];
    //dr["chkTask"] = liTask["Checkmark"];
    dt.Rows.Add(dr);
    GridView1.DataSource = dt;
    GridView1.DataBind();
    protected void chkTask_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    //add code here to update Task Item by ID
    Response.Write("checkbox event triggered");
    Here is my simple default.aspx:
    <%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="SPAppBasicWeb.Default" %>

    Hi,
    Please try to modify your code as below:
    using (var clientContext = spContext.CreateUserClientContextForSPHost())
    SP.Web web = clientContext.Web;
    SP.List list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("General Tasks");
    SP.CamlQuery caml = new SP.CamlQuery();
    Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(caml);
    clientContext.Load(items);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    If the code still not works, I suggest you debug the code or following the blog below to create a Provider-Hosted App for SharePoint and read list items from SharePoint list.

    Hi Jerry,
    I agree with Nikhil, I think you have posted partial ULS log, we could not find effective errors for the issue.
    For Provider Hosted app in SharePoint server on-premise,
    the TokenHelper class will try to access your Azure Security Principle by default.
    Did you have a valid Azure account?
    If not, the issue may be caused that you don't have a valid account, to resolve this issue, you can use
    a valid Azure account or not going to use Azure Platform for hosting the app as the article
    below.
