Create Root Web for Wildcard exclusion Managed path in SharePoint 2013
Hi,
I have some hundreds of site collections in a web application under a managed path which is wildcard inclusion.
For ex : https://demo2013.com/sites/siteA, https://demo2013.com/sites/siteB, https://demo2013.com/sites/siteC and so on.
In SharePoint we cant create root web for the wildcard inclusion Managed path. But i need to create a site collection at the root for the managed path sites.
Is there any other way to create that?
Any help is highly appreciated.
so you're generally aware of a very NECESSARY technical requirement.
You cannot have a managed path that is both explicit (and allows a site collection to exist at the path) AND wildcard (allowing site collections at child URLs).
It's a performance issue... when the URL is detected, it needs to either check the site collections (wildcard), or find the parent site collection and dig into sites/subsites (explicit).
Additionally, there would be HUGE concerns if you create similarly URL'ed subsites.
Accept the technical restriction, and design an Information Architecture that is not hampered by said restrictions.

How to set master page for Wildcard inclusion Managed path in Sharepoint 2013
I am using sharepoint 2013. I created mysite in root level for newsfeed. Also i included wildcard inclusion managed path named as
my. If i am clicking newsfeed the page url is http://webapplication:port/
if i am clicking sites the page url is http://webapplication:port/my/CURRENTUSERNAME/Social/Sites.aspx#IsEditing_WPQ4=1.
I can apply master page for newsfeed site using sharepoint designer. But i cant apply for
my path.
If am opening http://webapplication:port/my/vijay in designer i can change the master page. But my requirement is to apply master page for http://webapplication:port/my
for all users have same master page.
How to solve this . Thanks in advance.You need to update the mysitehost masterpage. all master pages are created as mysitehost template.
Here is how you do it.
Create a site collection with template as mysitehost
Modify the mysitehost masterpage
Once it is done, update the mysitehost in user profile service application

OneDrive for business App- On premises installation (Sharepoint 2013)
Hi,
Just needed clarification regarding One Drive for Business application on iPhone/iPad.
When I connect to internal corporate network, the application works fine. However when I go on external network, it gives an error that 'You are logged in but we can't access your settings'. Is there something I am missing? Same with One Drive for business
application for laptop.
It also works fine when I connect my iPhone/laptop on VPN.
We are using SharePoint 2013 (on premises installation). Do I need to get some subscription for business in order to get the app working over the internet? I know we need Office365 or sharepoint online in order to get the app working but it works fine when
I am connected to internal network or VPN.
We do have a public IP and URL for One Drive which works fine on any browser from external internet. So the problem is only limited to the application on Apple and Laptop (windows). We are using TMG.
Any info would be appreciated!
ThanksHi aso,
You may want to check the authentication types for SharePoint on-premise site internal and internet access, some authentication types are not supported, you can check if it is the case.

Which one is the best approach for responsive UI development option in SharePoint 2013
Which one is the best approach for responsive UI development option in SharePoint 2013
Device channel or responsive UI (HTML, CSS)?In practice you're probably going to end up with a combination. A couple of device channels for classes of device and then responsive UI within those channels to adjust to particular devices within the classes.
Of course the real answer is as always 'it depends' as you'll need to pick the best option for each client based on their needs. -

and two have not been installed. The Service Bus Gateway and Service Bus Message Broker services are started. The Workflow Manager Backend service can be started, but then quickly stops.
Thoughts? Resolution? I would be grateful for any assistance.Hi Stephan,
As I understand, you are encountering the issue that Workflow Manager Backend service terminating each time. May I know did you run the update cmdlets after you installed the updates for SharePoint server 2013? Please confirm it per the link below:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn133867.aspx
If you haven’t run the updates cmdlets, I suspect this is an install issue. I’d suggest you re-install workflow manager to resolve the issue:
1) Leave WFM/SB Farm
2) Uninstall updates and application in the following order and one at a time:
Service Bus CU1
Workflow Manager CU1
Service Bus 1.0
Workflow Manager 1.0
Workflow Manager Client 1.0
Microsoft Windows Fabric
3) Log into SQL server and delete Service Bus and Workflow Manager databases.
SBManagementDB
SBGatewayDB
SBMessageContainer01
WFManagementDB
WFInstanceManagementDB
WFResourceManagementDB
4) Install in the following order one at a time through Web Platforms Installer:
Workflow Manager 1.0
Service Bus 1.0 CU1
Workflow Manager 1.0 CU1

How to create a Real Time Interactive Business Intelligence Solution in SharePoint 2013
Hi Experts,
I was recently given the below requirements to architect/implement a business intelligence solution that deals with instant/real data modifications in data sources. After going through many articles, e-books, expert blogs, I am still unable to piece the
right information to design an effective solution to my problem. Also, client is ready to invest in the best
infrastructure in order to achieve all the below requirements but yet it seems like a sword of Damocles that hangs around my neck in every direction I go.
Requirements
1) Reports must be created against many-to-many table relationships and against multiple data sources(SP Lists, SQL Server Custom Databases, External Databases).
2) The Report and Dashboard pages should refresh/reflect with real time data immediately as and when changes are made to the data sources.
3) The Reports should be cross-browser compatible(must work in google chrome, safari, firefox and IE), cross-platform(MAC, Android, Linux, Windows) and cross-device compatible(Tabs, Laptops &
Mobiles).
4) Client is Branding/UI conscious and wants the reports to look animated and pixel perfect similar to what's possible to create today in Excel 2013.
5) The reports must be interactive, parameterized, slice able, must load fast and have the ability to drill down or expand.
6) Client wants to leverage the Web Content Management, Document Management, Workflow abilities & other features of SharePoint with key focus being on the reporting solution.
7) Client wants the reports to be scalable, durable, secure and other standard needs.
Is SharePoint 2013 Business Intelligence a good candidate? I see the below limitations with the Product to achieve all the above requirements.
a) Cannot use Power Pivot with Excel deployed to SharePoint as the minimum granularity of refresh schedule is Daily. This violates Requirement 1.
b) Excel Services, Performance Point or Power View works as in-memory representation mode. This violates Requirement 1 and 2.
b) SSRS does not render the reports as stated above in requirement 3 and 4. The report rendering on the page is very slow for sample data itself. This violates Requirement 6 and 7.
Has someone been able to achieve all of the above requirements using SharePoint 2013 platform or any other platform. Please let me know the best possible solution. If possible, redirect me to whitepapers, articles, material that will help me design a effective
solution. Eagerly looking forward to hear from you experts!.
Please feel free to write in case you have any comments/clarifications.
Thanks,
BhargavHi Experts,
Request your valuable inputs and support on achieving the above requirements.
Looking forward for your responses.

Poomani SankaranHi Aditya,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using Enterprise edition of SharePoint 2013 only. SQL Server 2012 SP1.
I have configured Reporing Services also successfully. I got "Reporting" folder in "15" hive location "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices"
SSRS Service application also i have created success in CA Manage Service Application.
I have done "Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint" also which is "rsSharePoint.msi".
What should i do apart from this? Can you tell me. Its frustrating like anything.
I have added the "PowerPivot" excel in "PowerPivot Gallery" and clicked the icon "Create Power View Report"
Thanks in Advance.

SCOM 2012 Web part won't show up in SharePoint 2013
Hi
I'm using SCOM 2012 en installed a test server with SharePoint 2013. I executed the command to install the operationsmanager dashboardviewer:
.\INSTALL-OPERATIONSMANAGER-DASHBOARDVIEWER.PS1 "C:\TEMP " http://localhost:9000
Everything went well.
I activated it under site collection features in sharepoint.
Under Site Contents > Operations Manager Web Console Environments > Edit i put the correct settings in.
After that I mad a new web application (since it was a new sharepoint server) and
affter that i created a site collection. (Collaboration > Team site)
When i surf to my newly created site, and i choose Add a page > Insert > Web Part, my SCOM plugin doesn't show up. According to several guides there should
be a categorie "Microsoft System Center" and a webpart "Operations Manager Dashboard", but it doesn't show up.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this :s?Disclaimer: I know nothing of SCOM's SP integration.
it sounds like the feature isn't activated at the site collection level... perhaps the powershell script was supposed to be run AFTER the site collection was created? You might be able to activate the feature afterwards, but it may not be very straight forward
(they may be hidden).

Setting up a Document management system in SharePoint 2013
Hello All,
I have come across a scenario where Customer needs a Document management system for their organization.
They want to keep the documents of different departments like sales, HR,Finace in corresponding folders and want to include a workflow for approval of the Documents. Also, Documents related to particular department can be modified or added by users in that
department.
I thought of creating a seperate site collection for this purpose & document libraries of each department, setting up the permission on document library level. Is this a correct approach?
I am new to Enterprise content management system of sharepoint. Can anybody give me a guidance on this how to get started.
Regards
Vishnu
dfdCreating separate site collection for each department will help you scale and grow better and easier to group SharePoint sites together.

Where is the forum for writing VBA code to control SharePoint 2013
For Example, I want to use VBA code to create a SharePoint list and maintain it. I can't find how to do that. In Office 2003, we had the SharedWorkspace Object; but that's been deprecated.
Current way to go is either CSOM or the SharePoint 2013 REST API. I'm not great at VBA, but I assume the REST API is the only option for you. Here you can find more info:

How to Set Item limit for Picture library Slideshow webpart in SharePoint 2013
Picture library Slideshow webpart is using the default view "All Pictures" and if I set a filter condition in the view, the images are displaying based on it but if I set an Item limit as "5" or any number in the "All Pictures"
view it is not reflecting in the slideshow webpart.
Any suggestion would be a great help as the users want to see only the latest 5 images in the slideshow webpart.
Thanks & regards,
AshaI don't think so there is any way to set a item count limit on Picture Library Slideshow web wart.
Web Part setting only allows to provide library and View, In List view also you can only set Item Limit to be shown on the 'List View'. Slideshow web part take all the items in the list and show, view is only used to provide which field needs to be shown.
There could be 2 options:
- Write a JavaScript to limit the count, and in the view add Sorting by 'Created' date. You can get some example on how to modify "Library Slideshow web part" javascript here: http://blog.vgrem.com/2013/04/27/beyond-the-slideshow-web-part-capabilities-in-sharepoint-2010/
This link does not have solution of what you want, but it gives a very well idea on what you can look and modify. It will not be that straight forward for sure.
- Create a custom webpart, it could be a easier approach. As there are many slideshow Javascript library present, and through code you will just need do a query and pull data from library with required number of items to be shown.

Dependencies on the App Management Service in SharePoint 2013
Looking for a listing of services or features in SharePoint 2013 that are dependent on the App Management Service Application being provisioned...
Anyone have a good list of what those are or could provide me one here? I want to make sure i'm not overlooking something as i weigh the pro's and con's of setting this service up.I'm not aware of a list of other services that are dependant on the App Management service.
My understanding is there aren't other out of the box services that depend on it. Update: Good news, I'm wrong :)
The Hybrid topologies (Search, BCS, Duet) between SharePoint Server 2013 and SharePoint Online do require the app management service so if you're condsidering these then you'll want to configure it.
If you're not using apps for SharePoint then you probably do not have a need to configure the service at this time.
