How to set another instance of same live app as test app sharepoint 2013 provider hosted

Hi
I have SharePoint 2013 provider hosted app published in azure now i need to deploy another instance on same app as separate app for testing purposes, i have created another site in azure and done all profile adding packaging the app with visual studio to
deploy .App file to SharePoint catalog. problem is that .app file is same name and when i going to add, it replace with same version witch deploy as live instance.
Any one can give solution how to handle this greatly appreciated ...
Kind Regards
Radika

Hi Radika,
According to your description, there is already an app deployed in your site, you want to deploy another instance of it to the same site for testing purpose.
As a common practice, when developing an app, for not overriding the previous version, it is recommended to create another project for testing used only with another
name.
By doing this, we can keep the development in the testing project, when it is done, migrate the newly customization to the original project and deploy it with a new
version number.

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

HOW CAN I GET USERNAME,PASSWORD,HOST STRING?

I have installed oracle 9i personal edition, when i tried to open sql plus, i was asked to fill username,password and host string. When i type anything it shows error message ora-12154.Is anyone can help me? Thanks

The error you gave can appear for lots of reasons.
You don't give any information about how the install
went - did you check the logs for errors? Have you
shut the machine down since you did the install?
Are you actually running SQL*Plus on the same machine
as the database? Is your database running? Can you
connect using "/ as sysdba"? What hints that even
a simple google search gives did you try?

How can I add my Host String in the Registry?

Hi everybody,
I know there's a way to add the Host String in the Registry, but I don't remember how to do it? Can anyone please help me. I want to do this because every time I log in I just want to type the username and password and not the Host String because is a little bit long for me and the users when they open a form to type data.
Help me please!

Dear User,
Instead of Using Registery Side ,
you should use log-on trigger. This is form level trigger.
logon('username','passard@hoststring').
if would go for registry then You have change in registry for each user while the above solution does not need
such changes.
Thanks and Regards

How to Use Office 365 api in Provider Hosted App

401.
Please Provide me a good example.
Thanks in Advance

Hi SharePlus,
You probably want to use the Office 365 API's to authenticate and communicate with the API's.
There's several resources available for this:
Ultimate LinkRoll for Getting Started with the Office 365 API's
Download Office 365 API Tools for Visual Studio 2013
Getting Started with O365 Dev - Communicate with Exchange
If you don't want to use the pre-compiled typed objects in the Office 365 API's for communicating with the Mail service (Exchange), you can always just make sure to handle the authentication properly and then construct your queries as raw queries, like Chaks
describes here: http://chakkaradeep.com/index.php/working-with-office365apis-the-raw-version/
Also, as a general rule; When working with anything Office 365, you should always keep an eye out for the example code, articles and news published from the Office 365 Patterns & Practices team here: https://github.com/OfficeDev/PnP
I hope this will guide you in the right direction :-)

SharePoint Provider Hosted App (401) Unauthorized Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: The Azure Access Control service is unavailable

Hello,
I'm attempting to get a SharePoint 2013 Provider Hosted Application working in a brand new SharePoint environment. I've created snapshots of both my dev and the sharepoint environments along the way and have meticulously documented every step of the
way. I've followed these instructions (among many other resources found along this journey) :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp179923(office.15).aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161236(office.15).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/office/fp179901%28v=office.15%29
Upon package and publish of my application to SharePoint, I get a 401 Unauthorized error. I use Fiddler to obtain the SPErrorCorrelationID to ultimately obtain the following ULS Viewer Output. Please explain how to fix if you're able.
Please Note: I was under the impression that a Provider Hosted Application does not use the Azure Access Control service, so I'm confused as to why my system is attempting to make this connection?
Also Note: I've used a self signed and godday obtained certificate to successfully f5 debug my basic web.title (out of the visual studio 2012 box) sharepoint provider hosted application... so I know my certs are good.
Here's my ULS output:

Yes, actually - I was able to resolve it.
However I don't know how, unfortunately. I suspect it was because I needed to have the names of the certificates, defined during the certificate registration (to sharepoint) process, different.
I have a complete document that shows step by step instructions on the exact process I took to complete the provider hosted application creation, deployment and publishing. It was a daunting task, but I finished it successfully.
If there's a way to send private message on this forum, please do so and I'll respond with a way to obtain my document.
NOTE: I'm not all impressed with the way this forum works. This is supposed to be a Microsoft resource and I'll be damned if I ever get a response to highly technical questions. Completely lame. Boooooo Microsoft.

Using powershell to deploy provider-hosted app and specify remote Url instead of using appinv.aspx page

Hello all,
Could you possibly help me with provider-hosted app development/deployment process.
We developed SharePoint provider-hosted app that works just fine in development environment. Now we need to automate it's installation in test environment via powershell.
In AppManifest.xml that we are deploying we have key instead of explicit URL:
<App xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/2012/app/manifest" Name="ShowAllRoomsApp" ProductID="{922a18aa-5592-b59a-4da9-4791baef02e7}" Version="1.0.0.0"
SharePointMinVersion="15.0.0.0">
<Properties>
<Title>SomeTitle</Title>
<StartPage>~remoteAppUrl/Pages/Default.aspx?{StandardTokens}</StartPage>
If we use as
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj655398.aspx recommends, we cannot specify Redirect Url as we can do this on
/_layouts/appinv.aspx
So now it seems like the only way to deploy this kind of solution is using appinv.aspx page.Or must we apply this URL in AppManifest on developing stage in Visual Studio?
What did I miss?
P. S. Even if I use /_layouts/appinv.aspx after powershell commandlets, I get error.

hi,
to deploy provider hosted app you need 2 things
1. Client ID
2. Redirect URL.
What you can do you can generate app from visual studio using clientID and URL from developer enviornment.
Now a app file is just a simple compressed zip file if you rename it as .zip and extract you will find AppManifest
inside it. So to create an app for Testing enviornment what you have to to Get the CLient ID (from AppRegNew.aspx) in testing enviornment. Unzip .App file change the AppManifest with testing client ID and URL than again zip file and rename as .app.
Now if you upload this file it will work.
To automate this scenerio i have created a simple windows Application in which i Pass the Client ID and StartURl and an App File it unzips the app file make changes to app and again zip it.

Also if you want to do it using powershell You need to do the same thing unzip-> changes values-> zip
So basic thing is You need to ahve only valid AppManifest file which contains 2 valid values Client Id and StartUrl
if you changes it inside appmanifest manuall than it will also work. Using above code you can create a console Application to do it. You can use powershell it just that i dont know how to zip unzip in powershell but i am pretty sure you can easily find it
on searching.

Redirection error An error occurred while processing your request in provider-hosted app which is hosted in Windows Azure

Hello,
I developed one simple provider hosted app and I published it in my Azure website. I also published the SharePoint App of this solution in O365 site. I'm using Visual Studio 2013 Premium edition. I've followed all the steps to do this work e.g.
generate the client ID and client secret through my O365 site and updated the AppManifest.xml as well as web.config etc. In my AppWeb project, I've TokenHelper.cs and SharePoint.cs classes.
When I'm clicking the app from my O365 site, I get the following error "An error occurred while processing your request" which is due to the following code:
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;
It's always executing the case RedirectionStatus.CanNotRedirect. Why?
I've checked the method "CheckRedirectionStatus" of SharePointContext.cs class completely and I am not understanding why am I getting this error.
When I browse my Azure website http://sitename.azurewebsites.net, even there I'm getting this error. I believe that error is because there is no query string parameter there e.g. SPHostURL etc.
Please let me know why I'm having this redirection error.
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi,
For a better troubleshooting,
I suggest you do as the following:
Debug the code step by step to find the reason of the issue.
For the remote debug your app from Windows Azure, you need to download Azure SDK:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/
After installing the SDK, it will have “Attach Debugger” for Azure web site, you
also need to set "Attach Debugger" to on in the Windows Azure Management Portal

Hi,
I tried it but doesnt seem to work. Anyhow, i created a new database with my requirements and thus issue got resolved.
Maybe you should have provided a bit of detail to "doesn't seem to work".
I hope you didn't build a whole new house just because you couldn't get the key fit the front door . . .
Thanks for your response. Appreciate it.Edited by: EdStevens on Sep 27, 2010 3:43 PM
