Custom SSRS report dev from Lync Server 2013

Trying to replicate canned Lync 2013 User Activity Report, but with more filtering capability, using SSRS. Necessary to do this way because we're adding details like user name, department and location from our Active Directory.
Have been unable to ever find support on WHAT the query or stored proc IS behind the UA report. If I have that code I can incorporate that with our data.
Any help appreciated!

The CompileSPL.exe in the Lync Server 2013 SDK can't compile the application manifest file

My windows server version is 2012 standard, I deployed the lync server 2013 to my environment, and ran the lync server 2013 SDK on the front end pool. Today, I wanted to compile a application manifest file, but I got the warning that this app can't run on
your pc, to find a version for your pc, check with the software publisher.

Hi,
The issue is related to Lync Server 2013, I suggest you ask for help from Lync Server 2013 SDK forum for better and accurate answer to the question.:

What are the supported feature for LYNC Server 2013 WITHOUT Telephony

Hi
I have a new customer who is asking for LYNC Server 2013 without to use VoIP Support.
The would like to use the LYNC-SKYPE connectivity but without LYNC calls.
Most of their internal users are using SKYPE.
The Question is now, what Features are possible for example:
FEATURE-LIST
See other’s presence
Manage own presence
See presence in Office
Contact management
Contact card
PC-PC and multiparty IM
PC-PC and multiparty file transfer
Persistent Chat
PC-to-PC computer audio calling
PC-to-PC computer video calling
PC-to-PC presence display, IM, audio, and video with Skype users
But what of the above feature list is possible without using VoIP ??
And how works that LYNC WebApp Client without VoIP? Is it possible to route Audio/Video over the internet by using that LYNC WebApp Client in LYNC 2013??
Thanks in advance ;-)
Kind regards
Michael
Kind regards Michael Damaschke

All of that is possible without PSTN connectivity or the plus cal.
When you say VoIP, do you mean audio chatting over TCP/IP in the purest form, or do you mean specifically telephone calls?
Technially PC-to-PC computer audio calling is VoIP, or voice over IP, but if you're talking about connecting it to a PBX or the phone network, you don't need it for any of the above. It works wonderfully and is quite a bit cheaper without it due to
fact that you won't need to license the plus cal for enterprise voice or the Exchange enterprise cal for voicemail.

Project Server User Security + Custom SSRS Reports Project List Parameter

Hello, below is the issue / challenge scenario:
I'mnt. We have to remove the smaller chunk of queries that are hitting the published database to get the user security permissions. I'm using custom SSRS reports that are pulling data from Reporting database and other custom financial SQL DB's. I need to
figure out a solution to get the list of accessible projects for a particluar user using PSI. I did find this technet article that addresses my issue in a way
http : // technet . microsoft . com/en-us/office/ee862408(v=office.14).aspx#pj2007_ta_SecurityInReports_DevelopingThePsiProxiesClassLibrary
the above solution means that I need to change many of my existing report queries (going to published DB)
Is there a simpler way to maintain a table that I can populate with the Project GUID's, name , user id, name using PSI? I can then refer the existing SQL's procs, TVF's to point to this table instaed of going to the published DB (unsupported method)
Any help/ direction is greatly appreciated
thanks,
SG

Hello,
The ReadProjectStatus PSI method defaults to Project for the Project Type, the value is 0. If you want other project types is gets slightly more complicated as you have to have multiple data sets for the ReadProjectStatus call, one for each project type
- each time specifying the default projType. For example for Projects (0) the query is:
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Project/" Name="ReadProjectStatus">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="projType"><DefaultValue>0</DefaultValue></Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Project/ReadProjectStatus</SoapAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">ReadProjectStatusResponse/ReadProjectStatusResult/diffgram/ProjectDataSet/Project{PROJ_NAME,PROJ_UID,PROJ_TYPE}</ElementPath>
</Query>
For sub projects (5) it is:
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Project/" Name="ReadProjectStatus">
<Parameters>
<Parameter Name="projType"><DefaultValue>5</DefaultValue></Parameter>
</Parameters>
</Method>
<SoapAction>http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/project/server/webservices/Project/ReadProjectStatus</SoapAction>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">ReadProjectStatusResponse/ReadProjectStatusResult/diffgram/ProjectDataSet/Project{PROJ_NAME,PROJ_UID,PROJ_TYPE}</ElementPath>
</Query>
You have to repeat this for all project types you want to include, create a hidden parameter for each project type then create a parameter to join them up and use the combined parameter to filter the data sets that get the data from the Reporting
database.
For other parameters in the ReadProjectStatus method see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg210536(v=office.15).aspx

Error Upgrading from the Evaluation Version of Microsoft Lync Server 2013

Hi,
I try to upgrade from Evaluation to full Version using:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg521005.aspx
but after i run: msiexec.exe /fvomus server.msi EVALTOFULL=1 /qb
i get a popup:
"Another version of this product is already installed. installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel."
Get-CsServerVersion :-> Microsoft Lync Server 2013 (5.0.8308.0): Evaluation license key installed.
Any ideea?

Hi Iulius
As your upgrading the Licence on the Lync 2013 FE it shouldn't care about the Lync 2010 Environment. As your moving from Eval to Full Licence on 2013. I have come across the below url that might help.
http://pei.com/2013/03/how-to-change-lync-license-from-evaluation-to-licensed/
http://jackstromberg.com/2013/02/how-to-activate-lync-evaluation-to-licensed-version/
I would personally go with from Lync Management Shell with Elevated Permission
cd /
cd /d: (Other what other drive letter)
cd /Setup\Amd64\Setup
msiexec.exe /fvomus Server.msi EVALTOFULL=1 /qb
But that's just me Id rather run the command from the directory than pointing to it.

Enable new Child Domain in Lync Server 2013

Hello All,
We are running Lync server 2013 in the Root Domain test.local. There are number of child domain enabled for Lync service . Eg: abc.test.local , xyz.test.local etc. Now i have a requirement to create new child domain and enable it for lync service.
So i created a new child domain (site1.test.local), then from lync shell i run below command to enable it.
Enable-CsAdDomain
–Domain site1.test.local –report c:\users\lyncadmin\Report1.html
Then i add the new SIP domain in topology builder in SIP doamin and
Simple URLs and publish the topology.
On AD all users are created in OU so i run below command to give privileges on OU:
Grant-CsOUPermission -Domain site1.test.local -ObjectType "User" -OU "OU=SITEUsers,DC=Site1,DC=TEST,DC=LOCAL"
After all the step , when i try to login the new users, Users are not logging , in Lync client logs it is giving below error:
4005;reason="Destination URI either not enabled for SIP or does not exist";source="LYNCFE13-02.TEST.LOCAL"
Please help to solve this issue .

I can see my child domain accounts in Lync control panel (enable user section) and all accounts are enabled. If i run below command then it show result = failure. But my others account are working.

Backing Up and Restoring Lync Server 2013/OCS 2007 R2 Co-existence Environment

Hello
I am seeking tips on how to build a replica of a Lync 2013/OCS 2007 R2 production pilot Co-existence environment in a test lab.
Lync 2013 is a standard Edition Pool
OCS 2007 R2 is an Enterprise Pool
Here is what I think...Is this feasible ? appreciate any other idea
1. Get Active Directory to Test Environment
For OCS 2007 R2 Servers
2. Use LCScmd on OCS 2007 R2 Servers to backup Global\Pool\Computer specific settings
3. Backup OCS 2007 R2 on Backend SQL Database
4. Restore data from steps 2 and 3 to equivalent servers created and prepared in test environment
For Lync 2013 SE Servers
5. Use the Lync 2013 Backup and Restore Process to bring up Lync Server 2013 into the test environment
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh202192.aspx
David

That should do it, as you said you'll need Active Directory as well so these accounts line up with something.
It may be easiest to restore into your virtual environment using virtual snapshots or Windows backups and fixing any corruption that may have occurred by restoring what you've backed up.

Office Web Apps server / Lync server 2013

Hi I have installed a Lync 2013 Server and Office Web Apps Server. Configured Lync topology, Office Web Apps farm and certificates.
However when i start the services i get this error message in the log saying Office Web Apps discovery failed.
Event ID: 41033
Description:
Office Web Apps Server (WAC) discovery failed, PowerPoint content is disabled.
Attempted Office Web Apps Server discovery Url:
Received error message: Invalid Uri syntax for WAC configuration
The number of retries: 1,
Cause: Office Web Apps Server may be unavailable or network connectivity may have been compromised.
Resolution:
Check HTTPS connectivity from this box to the Office Web Apps Server deployment using the discovery Url.
I can access the OWAS server Url from Lync Server
Connecting to the HTTPS discovery URL is working fine, and brings up the XML-page (after i click "show all content").
The two servers are located on the same internal network, DNS resolves fine both ways, and no firewall rules blocks any connections between the two. Can anyone please help me figure this out?
Only identical problem found online is here (Invalid Uri syntax for WAC configuration):
http://blogs.technet.com/b/dodeitte/archive/2012/09/10/office-web-apps-server-amp-lync-server-2013.aspx
He resolved the problem by assigning a new OAuthTokenIssuer certificate. This however did not fix the problem in my case.
Regards
Sverre A. Veel

Hi,
In addition, please make sure you have restarted front end and office web apps server after reissuing the certificate.

Hello Devster,
Thank you to post your question on TechNet forum.
After reviewing the whole post, I have a question to you. You can access the report via the link, http://myServer/Reports_DEVPROJECT/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fData+Mgmt%2fSample+Letter.
From the URL, I can see that the report is located at: /Data Mgmt/Sample Letter, instead of /DataMgmt/Sample Letter. In addition, I found that the target report is "/DataMgmt/Sample HAP Letter" instead of "/DataMgmt/Sample Letter" as the error described. I
am not sure whether you post out the correct code segment.
Please check the above things on your side, and hope it is helpful to you.

Restored our SSRS 2008 R2 from one server to another; Dates are in UK format and not US

We have restored our SSRS 2008 R2 from one server to another. The original server was in US locale/culture. The new server was in UK locale/culture, when the restore happened. However it should have been in US locale/culture. We have made this change and
new reports work OK.
However existing reports (i.e. saved by a user) are still trying to use the US dates in a UK format and as a result throwing a date cant be below 1753 error.
Has anyone seen this issue before or have any idea what we need to do to fix it?
Thanks
Kimberlad

Hi Kimberlad
Have you checked any changes in the Collation?
Please verify Reporting Server Databases and Server Collation is there any mismatch with your Source Server.
and also please post complete Error message..

How do I enforce "Show My Picture" instead of "Hide My Picture" in Lync Server 2013?

I was scouring TechNet and the web for a script that could perform the same task as one that I previously used for Lync 2010.
In Lync 2010, we had already used Lync policy to enforce that only the Active Directory photo could be used. One thing that we couldn't set via policy however was the ability to complete remove the "Hide My Picture" option in Lync 2010 client.
This left users with the ability to freely switch between showing the Corporate photo or no photo. I did eventually find and make use of script that constantly checked for this setting switch, then switched all users back to the desired "Show My Picture"
setting. I don't recall who wrote it, but it's easy to find on technet. As we started to move more and more users to our Lync 2013 enterprise pool, I noted that even though the script was running, the setting seemed to be changeable. A closer look revealed
that the script didn't function correctly against SQL for our 2013 pool.
I took the concept and applied it to Lync Server 2013 after studying the differences in Userdata. In Lync 2013, because UserData is in .zip, you need to convert it to 2010 format XML to use logic intended for Lync 2010. My script will extract 2013 data,
convert it to 2010, query for users who are set to "Hide My Picture" and then export any guilty users to an edited2010 XML. The script then converts this to 2013 Format .zip, and uploads the data for these users only. I chose to use Update-CSUserData
insted of Import-CSUserData as this avoids having to restart my Front End. I then use a scheduled task on my Front End server which runs this script every hour.
Please note: You can use this script, but I guarantee nothing about it's functionality, and I am not responsible for how you positively/negatively use it. You should always test things in a Lab Environment. Furthermore, this script was run on a relatively
smaller Enterprise system in which we are by default set to "Show My Picture" and already assigned as part of our user policy the ForceADPhoto attribute. This means that running the script is less intensive on my FE than say on a FE with 10,000 users
where none of the users were set to "Show My Picture". Please keep this in mind when planning to execute against your FE. You may want to edit my script and insert the -UserFilter or -WhatIf in the Export-CsUserData UpDate-CsUserData.
Anyways, I hope this solves the similar issue for many of you Lync 2013 administrators. Please feel free to share my work with others if it does, and also give this post some good feedback and/or mark my post as the answer to your problem.
Alas, here's the script (save it as a .ps1 , i.e. ForceShowMyPicture.ps1)
