Connect document set with document library
Suppose you have a document set and a document library and they both have a column "PersonalID".
How is it possible to connect a document set with a document library where you only see the documents with the same value in "PersonalID"?
Hi Cameron,
I created two content types where one is the parent of the other.
I tried to use the filter but I can't choose any option. they are all greyed out.
If I want to use connection on my document set properties web part, it's impossible. "Connections" is greyed out and I can't check it in the properties of the web part. If I check the box and save it, it's unchecked when I re-edit the web part.
If I go to my list web part, I can't connect with another list, only with the image of the document set. "Send Row of Data To" > Image.
I can't use "Get filter values from"...
any tips/ideas?

We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server. The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option. If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem. One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
the same document library! The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure. She can read the older document, but not the new one.
It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error. We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
created profile does not experience the error for these people. Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears. When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear. We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy. We are rebooting between
logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
2005 SP4. SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries. We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries. We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files. It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes. One person experiencing
the errors is a Site Collection Admin. That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file. They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
file gave them an error. In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
We've tried lots of things including:
Deleting IE cache
Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
Running IE without add-ons
Upgrading and Downgrading IE
Uninstalling and re-installing IE
Reinstalling our SSL certs
Repairing Office
Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool
Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
Toggling the location of checked out files
Adding the site in the trusted sites list
Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
Making sure the WebClient service is started
Rebooting the machine (lol :)
This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing. There aren't
"check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next. Thanks!

PS I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes. It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error. I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done. I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster. Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
to get back to work. Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore. The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error. I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error. Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem.
I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
So the process went as follows:
Reboot and log into the machine as another user
Delete the profile and associated registry key
Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring. That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
before which didn't fix the issue.
So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
One way to do this was to:
Reboot and log in as another user
Rename the c:\users profile folder
Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
We've tried this on a couple machines and it works. I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it. -

I wan't to use the external data column as an shared column for my document set(s). But i can't figure out or this is possible.Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set the external data column as a shared column in document set content type.

How to connect SharePoint Document Library with Local file system?
Hi
I have a SharePoint Document library and in my local system i have 3TB files. It is very difficult to upload 3TB files in SharePoint.
I want a file details in SharePoint Document Library but physical file would be in local.
While click the file in Document library. The document should open from local.
Anyone help me on it.
Thanks & Regards
Poomani SankaranHi,
your requirement doesn't work out-of-the-box as all data uploaded to SharePoint needs to be stored in SQL database. Thus in your case 3 TB of fileshare would need to move to SQL.
In case you don't want to go this way, there are 3rd party vendors who offer Software like AvePoint Connector. Products like these use SQL RBS (Storage Externalization API) so that files remain in your file system but metadata is kept in SharePoint. If you
need more information on that, please let me know.

The Create List Item workflow action does not work in document library with document template
My end goal is more complex but below is a basic example of the issue I’m having that just simply does not work.
I'm trying to use a site workflow to create an item in a document library that has a document template applied to it but the file that gets created by the workflow is corrupt and cannot be opened.
I created a document library and edited the document template by adding some text to the header and changing it to a Word docx file instead of a Word dotx file. I tested the document template by clicking the files tab in the ribbon and then clicking new
document which opens the document template in Word and allows me to edit and save the document back to SharePoint. Then I created a SharePoint 2013 site workflow in SharePoint Designer that contains a single Create List Item action, and that action creates
an item in the document library with the name field statically defined. I published the workflow and then manually start it on the site. The workflow completes successfully and when I navigate to the document library the document has been created by the workflow.
When I click on the document to open it in the Word Web App it throws the error pictured below and if I open it in the Word client application it just opens a blank document and not the correct document template.
I also tried using a SharePoint 2010 workflow with pretty much the same results. Opening the document in Word Web App gives the same error as above and opening the document in the Word client application gives the error pictured below.
Come on Microsoft creating a Word Document in a SharePoint Document Library from a SharePoint Workflow should just work! Is this a bug or does anyone have any ideas on what is causing the this issue?I had the same problem with corrupted document - this worked for me:
1. Create a 2010 Workflow which creates the list element in a document library
(you may start this workflow from your 2013 workflow if applicable)
2. In the Create New List Item properties - make sure to set ContentTypeId to your content type
("Id for indholdstype" is Danish for "Contenttype ID")
3. Your Content Type template should be a ".docx" file - NOT a ".dotx" file...!
(I have always created my templates for content types as .dotx files - seems Microsoft wants us to use ordinary .docx files as template files for content types)
Hope this helps you! -
An user as part of the domain users tries to open an office file from a document library but he got an authentication prompt asking him to authenticate. Domain users has only access to this library and not to the whole site. This uses to work in SharePoint
2007 without any problem but not in SharePoint 2013, we didn't have a workflow on SP2007.
Domain users has read access to only this document library in the site, but he shouldn't get an authentication prompt since he is part of the domain users and he is not trying to modify the document, he can open the document but gets two prompts, he can't
also see the list using explorer view since nothings appears using the explorer view.
Now, when opening the file, we can see..Updating Workflow Status, but we don't have any workflow working on this site or library, event any feature related to workflow.
If we go to the event viewer in the server, we find this information,
I also checked this thread but I couldn't find this scenario.

I also created another list with the same permissions and using other office files but got the same behavior.
Now, we have migrated this site from SP2007 to SP2013.
Any ideas?OK, I am going to throw out a lot of ideas here so hopefully they get you closer to a diagnosis. Hang on :)
Does it happen to work for some users but not others? If so, try logging in on the "good" computer with the "bad" username. This will tell you if the problem is related to the end-user's system. Also, once the user downloads a document
successfully can they open and work on it in Word? Also, does the document library have any custom content types associated with it or does it just use 'Document'?
I notice that there are other folks on the web that have run into this same problem and the similarity seems to be that they are either on SharePoint 2007 or have upgraded from 2007. Did this doc library start out as a 2007 library?
What you might want to do is this: Make a site collection from scratch in 2013 (or find one that you know was created in 2013). Choose team site (or whatever you want) for the root web and set up the security the same way you have it on the malfunctioning
library. Now, use windows explorer to copy and paste some of the documents to the new location. Be sure you recreate any needed content types. Now test it from the troubled user's computer.
I'm thinking there may be something that is different about the library since it was migrated through various versions and updates since 2007. I've sometimes found that there can be problems (especially with user profiles but that's a different story) with
things that go through this evolution. -
How to set Document Library Item Limit at Site Collection level?
Hi,
I have SharePoint which contains one Site collection with many Sites. Each sites has many document library.
Actually my requirement is, End Users wants to see only 10 items per page in document library. We can manually set by using "Item Limit" option but i could not set that for around 150 document libraries.
Is there any possible to set that in Site Collection level?
Thanks & Regards
Poomani SankaranYou can run for each loop and use below code
http://get-spscripts.com/
#Get the site and list
$web = Get-SPWeb "http://portal/sites/testsite"
$list = $web.GetList(($web.ServerRelativeUrl.TrimEnd("/") + "/Shared Documents"))
#Get the list view to be changed
$newview = $list.Views["Sort by modified date"]
#Set the mobile and default mobile view properties
$newview.MobileView = $true
$newview.MobileDefaultView = $true
#Update the view configuration
$newview.Update()
$web.Dispose()
$web.Lists[0].Views[0].RowLimit=30
$web.Lists[0].Views[0].Update()

Document Set Creation in document library using REST API in Sharepoint 2013
Hi,
I want to create the document set using REST API call. Currently i am able to create the folder and able to upload the files using REST API's in the document library. Is there any way we can pass the contentype name or Id and create the document set using
REST API call. We need to create the document set along with metadata and upload the files inside the document set.
I need to create the document set along with meta data column values using REST API. Please let me know how we can achieve this through REST API.
Thank you,
MylsamyHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create document set along with managed metadata fields.
The REST API does not currently support working with Managed Metadata or Taxonomy fields.
As a workaround, we can use the JavaScript Client Object Model.

Issue with New Document in a document library with multiple content types
Hi,
I have a created a custom list definition based on a document library. I added 3 content types in this list, one is a document set (lets call it DOCSET), the two others are content types inheriting from Document (DOCA and DOCB).
I deployed the list definition with a site scoped feature and the list instance with a web scoped feature. After activating the two features, the list is created and the content types are present in the list.
When I click in the New Document button and choose either the DOCA or DOCB content type, a Word document opens and the DOCA content type is always associated to this Word document.
With SharePoint Manager 2013 I saw that the template.dotx document was not in the Forms/DOCA or Forms/DOCB folder.
So I decided to remove all the content types from the list definition and add them by code with the ListAdded event receiver. I used list.ContentTypes.Add to add the content types to the list.
With this method the templates are correctly copied from the template.dotx in the RootFolder/Forms folder of my list. These templates have the rights content type id, but the New Document button still does not work properly.
So I looked at the Content Types inside my library and saw that the DocumentTemplateUrl linked to the RootFolder/Forms/template.dotx and not the RootFolder/Forms/DOCA/template.dotx or RootFolder/Forms/DOCB/template.dotx.
I debugged my code to look closer and see that right after the list.ContentTypes.Add, the DocumentTemplateUrl is correclty set but when my EventReceiver finishes, the DocumentTemplateUrl get back to the RootFolder/Forms/template.dotx.
Have you any idea why this is not working ?
RegardsHi,
Per my understanding, there is an issue about the DOCA and DOCB content types which inherits from Document Content Type in your custom list definition.
By default, if there is a custom content type inherits the OOTB Document Content Type, it will also inherits the template.dotx file from the OOTB Document Content Type.
The template URL of a custom content type which inherits the OOTB Document Content Type:
If you want to specify different templates for different content types, the code demo below would be helpful:

Hi.
I am getting below error "Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer" while click "Open with Explorer" option in document library.
My system is client machine which is 32 Bit system and
Web Client service is also running and Window 7 PC.
Other SharePoint sites "Open with Explorer" option in document library is working fine but specific site is giving error.
Even it was working fine but not is giving this error.
Please help me on it. Its making frustrations.
Thanks & Regards
Poomani SankaranHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got “Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer” error.
Did you enable the both authentication (Windows and FBA) on default zone.
As far as I remember when FBA is enabled on the same zone when Windows is used, it breaks whole client integration.
So it will be better if you will recheck your architecture and will use different zones for Windows and FBA.
There is also another thing to try: use claims based authentication with authentication provider which will work both with Windows and FBA.
What’s more, you can also check with below steps.
Use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
Add the site into Trusted sites to check whether it works..
Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Sites->add the site into the Websites, then check whether it works.
In addition, you can also try to enable Basic authentication on the client computer, by setting the BasicAuthLevel registry entry of the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters
For detailed steps, visit the following KB page.

Issue when filtering with Managed Metadata Columns in Share Point Document Library
Hi All
I have a document library, and a four Metadata Columns in it, with each column having a number of term in it. I have no issues in adding a document or in term sets. We have set property of Managed Metadata Column as Allow Multiple Values. So some of the items
in library contains values with only one term set. While other documents contains values with multiple values.
We have a number of country sites having the document library with same metadata columns. In document library default view i am showing Metadata column, User want to filter the documents (view) based on Metadata column selected.
The filtering is giving inconsistent behavior. In production server it is giving in error with some correlation ID. On our development machine some times it is working fine and some other times it is given error of Validation of Viewstate MAC failed. i tried
on different countries sites.
I checked we have already kept the Metadata Navigation and Filtering under site action feature as activated. It was even more weird when i deactivated the feature on one country site and the filtering was working fine. And on other country site where i
kept the feature as activated and the filtering was giving an error.
Thanks & Regards
AmitHi Amit,
Have you checked the ULS error message for more information with correlation ID?
Please try using the library metadata navigation to filter these managed metadata columns value via configuring library "Metadata navigation settings" after you enabled the "Metadata Navigation and Filtering" feature,
then check if the issue would still persist.
Please see more information from below article with similar issue.

Create Document Set with custom Create Only permission set
Here is the situation. We have a requirement where my customer wants to create document sets, however, document set/document level permissions are required.
Setup: We created a new permission level called "Create Only". We then give the user Read and Create only permissions. This allows the user to theoretically create the item. We then run a Workflow on create that Replaces the permissions so that
you are only allowed to view the ones you created along with other security groups based on their choices in the metadata fields.
This setup works PERFECTLY when using a List or Form Library.
However, for the life of me I cannot get it to work for Document Sets. If I have the same setup, I get an Access Denied message. However, it still creates the document set.
What is weird, I've been playing around with custom permission levels and it seems as though the user has to have EDIT permissions at a minimum in order to create the document set. This will not work for me since I dynamically assign permissions to each
document set based on what they select.
As a side note, the only tool I have at my disposal is SharePoint Designer 2010.
Does anyone know if there is an actual requirement to have EDIT permissions when creating a Document Set? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Alternatively, is there a way to setup permissions on a library for all NT Authenticated users so that we can give them the necessary permissions to create the Document Set, but still prevent them from see the other items and then the Workflow would set
the permissions accordingly?
I believe the more granular the permissions it uses those permissions instead so would this work? I have not tested this theory yet.Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know if there is an actual requirement to have EDIT permissions when creating a Document Set and is there a way to setup permissions on a library for all NT Authenticated users and prevent
them from seeing items created by others.
For the first question, per my knowledge, if a user is given the Add Items permission, he/she can create a document set in SharePoint.
However, there is an error “access denied” after the document set is created. It is due to the user has no permission to access the page which SharePoint will redirect the user to after finishing creating the document set.
If the user is also given Edit Items permission, there will be no error when he/she create a document set.
For the second question, I recommend to follow the link below to
customize item permissions for each document submitted to a document library and remember to give the
NT Authenticated users contribute permission.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/spke/archive/2010/04/09/configure-item-level-permissions-for-document-libraries-sharepoint-2010-edition.aspx

Document Library set "Title" field automatically equal to "Name" field
Hi,
Is it possible to make Title field in document library automatically fill up with File name field?Three ways you could do this really.
#1 - Write a custom event receiver using .NET
#2 - Write Javascript on the list form to update the field
#3 - Create a custom workflow that kicks in when new items are added or modified and that would set the field

Hi,
My requirement is to create a document library associated to a custom content type with a document template associated. Also I need to create a document based on the template in this document library when a new item is created in another list by taking the
reference ID of that new Item , I need to create the document with the name appended by ID. I need to do all this deployment using WSP.
I have created document library with document template associated to content type by following instructions in below stated blog :http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chaks/archive/2011/05/19/deploying-a-document-template-file-in-content-type-in-a-office365-sandboxed-solution.aspx
This works perfect for me.
However, there are few observations, when going to Document Library > Library Settings > Advanced Settings > Document Template section - doesnt shows the Edit template link. When tried to look at the value for the document template using view source
, it is giving me /Lists/MyDocsListInstance/Forms/template.dotx instead of the actual template file uploaded.
Ignoring the above observation, when I am trying to create a sandbox based workflow in visual studio to create document in document library when new item is created in another list, I provide the ContentTypeID as the ID associated with the document library
with template.
It creates the corrupt document at end of workflow.
I have tried using .docx instead of .dotx files for workflow as per solution provided in some of the post but it isnt resolving my issue.
Any help is much appreciated.

Does it happen to work for some users but not others? If so, try logging in on the "good" computer with the "bad" username. This will tell you if the problem is related to the end-user's system. Also, once the user downloads a document
successfully can they open and work on it in Word? Also, does the document library have any custom content types associated with it or does it just use 'Document'?
I notice that there are other folks on the web that have run into this same problem and the similarity seems to be that they are either on SharePoint 2007 or have upgraded from 2007. Did this doc library start out as a 2007 library?
What you might want to do is this: Make a site collection from scratch in 2013 (or find one that you know was created in 2013). Choose team site (or whatever you want) for the root web and set up the security the same way you have it on the malfunctioning
library. Now, use windows explorer to copy and paste some of the documents to the new location. Be sure you recreate any needed content types. Now test it from the troubled user's computer.
I'm thinking there may be something that is different about the library since it was migrated through various versions and updates since 2007. I've sometimes found that there can be problems (especially with user profiles but that's a different story) with
things that go through this evolution.
