How to configure SharePoint 2010 / 2013 Search for SQL Database Contents and Oracle Database Contents?

Hi All,
We are planning to maintain the contents in SQL / Oracle. Could you please suggest anyone which is best for SharePoint 2010 / 2013 Search. How to configure the search for external content source?
Thanks & Regards,
Prakash

This link explains supported and non supported scenarios to use Oracle for BCS

And here is more on it
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff464424%28office.14%29.aspx
And here how you can connect Oracle to SharePoint for BCS functionality
http://lightningtools.com/bcs/business-connectivity-services-in-sharepoint-2013-and-oracle-using-meta-man/
Overall it seems SQL doenn't require any special arrangement to connect BCS to SharePoint.

Sharepoint 2010 custom search for subsites

Sharepoint 2010
Hello, i have main site and about 30 subsites. And on each subsite about 30 document librarys.
I created basic search center custom site with name "Search". I also created custom scope. So when i search on my main site, anything is fine and when i go to subsite document library my scope is changed to this site:document librarys name. Then
i pu something in search line and click search. On my custom search page i can see, that all links are from correct subsite and correct document library, but my scope shows "This Site:Search". So when i put something else in my search line and click
search, i dont get any results, because it searches only on search page. Even when i click on scope dropdown, there is no choice, only "This Site:Search".
Is there any solution to create a search scope, that would take the parameters from the document librarys URL from wich i am searching for and put it in the scope.
P.S.
Default search OSSSearchResults.aspx works fine, but i nead to change xsl code.
I tried to put scope dropdown to "show and default to url parametr", but nothing is changed.

Hi Dmitri,
If you want to search on a library, you can go to the library, then search using the Search Box at the top of the page. When you search, it will go to the OSSSearchResults.aspx page, and on the page, you will find there are two search scope, one is the library,
another is the site. If you want to search on another library, you can go to another library, then search.
Or, you can create a custom search scope pointed to the library, and add the search scope into the Search Dropdown display group.
More infoemation, please refer to the link:

How to connect from SAP on DB2 for i5/OS to external oracle database

Hello,
I managed to retrieve data from an external DB2 for i5/OS database using ABAP Native SQL running on another i5/OS server.
I also managed to retrieve data from an external oracle database using ABAP Native SQL running on another Windows/Oracle server.
Now i want to use ABAP Native SQL running on an i5/OS and retrieve data from an external Oracle database?
I suppose i need software to connect fron I5/OS to this oracle database like you need extra software when you want to connect to an i5/OS database if you are running SAP on Windows (read note 751451)
Does anybody know?
Thanks in advance
Bertil Rebergen

Hello Bertil,
to access an Oracle database from within an SAP system you'll need SAP's database interface library specific for Oracle plus the Oracle database client library utilized by SAP's database interface library. Both need to be available for the operating system your application server runs on, i.e. IBM i5/OS in your scenario.
Since the required Oracle database client software is not available for IBM i5/OS your SAP application servers on IBM i5/OS cannot access your Oracle database.
To overcome this limitation you would need to add at least one additional SAP application server based on Windows or Linux/Power to your current SAP system utilizing IBM DB2 for i5/OS. Since the required software libraries are available for these two operating systems you will be able to solve your problem this way.

Sharepoint foundation 2013 Search Service Application.

Hi all,
I want to configure search application for sharepoint foundation 2013. I have followed some of the web links.
But did not get success. Can you please provide me the working example of how to configure search application and run the crawl. And make sure the search is working correctly.
Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Vishwajeet,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to configure SharePoint Foundation 2013 Search service application.
In SharePoint Foundation 2013, we cannot add the Search Service to SharePoint Foundation 2013 from the Central Administration GUI after selecting a manual configuration method. It seems that the ONLY way you can add the Search Service to SharePoint Foundation
2013 is by using the SharePoint Configuration Wizard.
More information, please refer to the link:

SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App on Windows server 2012 R2 not working

Hi all,
I installed SharePoint server 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2 using VirtualBox. I created a DC(domain controller) server with a domain set up on one VM and it has SQL server 2012 SP1 installed. Then SharePoint 2013 on another VM
was set up to access the DC server. Everything seems working except Search Service App which cannot be sucessfully set up. Creation process for Search service app says Successful and 4 search databases were created and look fine. But when I navigate
to search service app admin page, it gives error info:
System status: The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component '386f2cd6-47ca-4b3a-aeb5-d9116772ef16' in search application 'Search Service Application 1' is
in a good state and try again.
Search Application Topology: Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running.
From event viewer, I see following errors:
(1) Error From source: SharePoint Server
Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance (b7c72eb8-cbaf-435e-b4c9-963cb6e4e745).

Technical Support Details:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xC0041235): The gatherer application could not be mounted because the search administration database schema version does not match the expected backwards compatibility schema version. The database might not have

Since separate DC server and SharePoint server do not work, I installed SharePoint 2013 on DC server ( so DC server has everything on it now ) but it gives exactly same result. Later I installed SharePoint 2013 SP1 and still have the same problem
with Search Service app. I spent two weeks tried all suggestions available from Web and Google but SharePoint Search Service simply does not work. Config and other databases work but why Search Service has this issue seemingly related to search DB.
Could anybody please help out? You deserve a top SharePoint consultant award if you could find a solution. I am so frustrated and so tired by this issue.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App did not work on Windows server 2012 R2.
Please make sure you configure Search Service Application correctly. You can refer to:Create and configure a Search service application in SharePoint Server 2013
I recommend to created new Search Service Application, and made a full crawl. Then assigned the new SSA as the default SSA for webapplications. Finnlay checked the issue doesnt occur now,
If all search related components now are online, to keep the enviroonment clean, you can delete the old SSA.
Thank you for your understanding.

Question regarding the powershell creation of service applications in SharePoint 2010/2013

Hi
I create all my service applications in SharePoint 2010/2013 using Powershell.
Is there a "best practice" when to start the service Instance for a service application? Is it better to start the service instance prior to creating a service application or after the service application has been create?
I'm curious.
best regards
Bjorn

Not that i'm aware of. If it works then go for it.
I would tend to build the service application and only then activate the instances on servers, however that is going to depend heavily on the application in question. The real heavyweights like Search are a special case in any event.

SharePoint Server 2013 Search Box has disappeared

Hi guys,
SharePoint Server 2013 Search Box has disappeared and not showing on any sites. Even when I try to go to Search centre site I get an error "sorry something went wrong...
Web Parts Maintenance Page: If you have permission, you can use this page to temporarily close Web Parts or remove personal settings. For more information, contact your site administrator. "
My search SA is working fine and crawl running with no error. It seems like there was same issue on SP foundation 2013 where there is fixed released for that:
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2760625?wa=wsignin1.0
But I have SP Server and i can confirm that I have installed SP1 (KB288055) in my farm.
I wonder if I need to install any CU to fix this.... I haven't installed any CUs in my farm yet.
Shall I go for Feb 2015 CU update or Sept 2014 CU? or is there any fixes for that with no CU or I need to install my farm from the scratch....
Please help.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

You have deactivated SharePoint Search from center Admin.
Please activate it

Sharepoint Server 2013 Search doesn't work

I have SHarepoint Server 2013, but the search service has never functioned. I removed the default search service application and created a new one, but it still dosen't function correctly.

Yes, I can see the timer jobs related to search services, some of them are Succeded, others are Scheduled.
The service SharePoint Search Host Controller Service is started in the first server of the farm, but not in the second
one. When I try to start it, I receive the following error:

Sharepoint Server 2013 Search Issue

Hi,
running Sharepoint server 2013. search service application is not working properly. getting the below error message.
"Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running"
we have 2 tier sharepoint 2013 farm architecture. please find the below server details.
1. WFE & APP server (OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and RAM: 8 GB)
2. database server (OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and RAM: 8 GB)
I tried the following:
- installed the latest sharepoint server 2013 CU.
- OS is up to date.
- deleted and recreated Search Service Application
- The service account does have access to the search databases
- one account is used, domain\sp2013search, has all necessary permissions
Please help to fix the search issue.

Hi Raj0639,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you run SharePoint 2013 Search.
Firstly, please make sure that all servers are online, and connecting to others.
Please stop all search services on Manage services on server, then restart them. Please try to do as Amit said, compare the result.
If this issue still exists, please repair SharePoint 2013 under Control Panel, then compare the result.
Here is a similar post for you to take a look at:

I hope this helps.

How to configure automatic printing of picklist for an OBD?

Hi Experts,
Can you pleae let me know how to configure automatic printing of picklist for an OBD?
Thanks,
Shetty

1. To see whether picking list (EK00) is generated:
VL02n open the delivery -> menu bar -> extrax -> picking output .
Is EK00 there? If not, it means that EK00 is not generated for this delivery.
If EK00 is green -> it means that it has been printed.
If it's yellow -> it means that it hasn't been printed yet. Now you have to goto VL70 to print it.
2. To generate a picking output for one delivery, you have to do:
[1] In customizing of shipping point, (img -> enterprise structure -> defination -> logistics execution ->shipping point), you have to set picking output (TVST-KSCHL).
[2] Item is relevant for picking, and plant/storage location is not assigned to a warehouse.
[3] Set default print parameter in customizing. (IMG -> Logistics Execution -> Shipping -> basic function -> output control ->define print parameter -> V4 -> for you picking output type -> assign default print parameter to shipping point ).

How to migrate sharepoint 2010 infopath form to sharepoint online.

how to migrate SharePoint 2010 infopath form to SharePoint online.

Hi Partha,
You use powershell script to migrate infopath forms from SP 2010 to SP Online. But you need to be careful about external connections used in infopath forms(web service connections etc.) because they might required to be changed. So, for data connections,
use of Data Connection Library is a preferable way or you can write a powershell script to update the data connections also.
You can find the sample script from the below url:

How to configure multiple listeners to listen for the same instance.

Hello everyone,
I am running oracle database 11g and I want information regarding how to configure multiple listeners to listen for the same database instance. Actually I know how to configure more than one listener but the main thing that I am confused about is when we create listener.ora file, do we have to statically register the database instance with both the listeners or the instance will register itself with both the listeners.
According to my knowledge the instance will register with the listener specified by LOCAL_LISTENER parameter and we cannot have more than one value for this parameter.
Please only give detailed answers with example as I am tired of simple answers with details that I already know.

Hello,
Yes, it can make sense to have several listener for one Oracle instance. For instance you may have one listener for the applications another listener for DBA administration tasks as well as one listener dedicated to dataguard broker. It is not possible to have several listeners listening on the same IP and Port.
By default the database try to automatically register to a listener on port 1521. To instruct the instance to register to a specifc list of listeners you can add in the init.ora the local_listener parameter with an alias definition:
i.e
local_listener=MY_SET_OFF_LISTENERS
in your tnsname.ora add an entry called:
MY_SET_OFF_LISTENERS_LOCAL= (ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=myhostname)(PORT=1530))
(ADRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=myhostname)(PORT=1531))
(ADRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=myhostname)(PORT=1532))
In this sample your instance will register to three listeners listening on respectively port 1530, 1531 and 1532
If you want your clients can be balanced over the 3 listeners
