SQL DBA renamed the Search databases, and now search isnt working

Our SQL DBA, saw the GUIDs and decided to rename the databases, didnt bother to tell anyone that they did it, now search is not working at all.
Should we reconfigure a new search of try to figure out how to put SharePoint search to the renamed DATABASES?
I also have found that the prior names of the Databases what they were with the GUIDs and was thinking of telling the DBA to rename them back, would this causes an issues... and this is in PRODUCTION SharePoint...

You can get the "old" names via Get-SPDatabase. Rename the databases within SQL until you have a chance to follow the proper procedure. The proper procedure is outlined here:

Thank you
Jyotiraaditya

Hi,
As I understand, you want to search without folders in SharePoint 2013.
You can do the steps to achieve your request:
In search center in results page, click Edit page.
In search results web part, click dropdown in the upper right corner -> click Edit Web Part.
Click Change query -> in Property filter field -> choose contenttype, not contains, folder -> click Add property filter -> ok.

How to access the markup in a sharepoint 2013 list

Hello,
I would like to try word wrapping my column headers and try changing the column width in a list. How to I access the markup (html)? I do have Sharepoint Designer 2013 installed but I am not too familiar with it.
Also, Is there any way to add a block of text to a sharepoint list page explaining the list and how to use it?
Thanks!
Natalie

Hi Natalie,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to make list column header word wrapping, change the columns’ width in a list and add a block of text to describe this list.
I recommend that you can follow the steps as below to implement it in your environment.
1. Open your site in SharePoint Designer 2013, click on “Lists and Libraries” in the Left Navigation, click on the list which you want to modify.
2. Right-click the “All Items” view of this list, select the “Edit File in Advanced Mode” option, add the following code under the <asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server"> tag, and save
the changes of the file.
<style type= "text/css">
.ms-vh, .ms-vh2, .ms-vh a, .ms-vh2 a
width: 30px;
white-space: normal;
text-align:center;
vertical-align:text-bottom;
color:red;
</style>
3. Open this list in your site, go to “List Settings”, click on “List name, description and navigation”, add some descriptions like “This is a test list~!”, and click on the “Save” button.
Then, you can go back to this list, and you will see the corresponding descriptions in a text box when you click on the “?” icon next to this list name.
The result is show as below:

How to migrate files from different databases to sharepoint 2013?

Hello everyone,
I need to migrate files of various formats from two databases to SharePoint 2013 ? How should I pursue? Please explain..
Scenario : Two different databases on different systems have loads of files. I need to migrate them to SharePoint?
Any suggestions/ Answers

Hi,
You need to copy the database into your network shared folder or SharePoint Server where you wanted to attach this content DB to your newly created web application.
Hope and Afraid,
Same Domain has been used. I mean if you move the content db from the server 1 which using the AD1 for authenticate the users,
So your new server 2 and web application must have configured to authenticate the AD 1 users.Otherwise user not found exception will be thrown.
If not still you can change the site collection administrator for the site which is migrated from the server 1.

Rename State Service Database in SharePoint 2010

As the title says, I want to rename/change database for State Service Application.
I did some experiments wit it as suggested by others but I think I somehow managed to broken my service.
I can SharePoint Products Configuration again and I got another database State_Service_GUID which I didnt want at the first place.
I followed the steps on
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff851878.aspx#State and it failed as well, and I am in middle of no where.
I am even not sure if my service is properly running or not. I can see it in Service Applications page in Central Administration as Started but I cannot select it and use ribbon operations on it.

Hi ,
Rename the Service Database
Go to SQL Management Studio and rename the database
Open SQL Management Studio. You may have to go to your SQL Server to do this.
Attach to the instance that host SharePoint
Find your database
Right click on the database name and choose Rename
Delete the GUID off the end of the name or make the name whatever you want then press Enter. SQL Database is now renamed. Notice I changed all of the spaces to underscores. Why? Because DBAs hate spaces in names more than they hate GUIDs and I am a nice
guy.
Now go to your SharePoint Server and use PowerShell to set the database name.
Click Start > All Programs > Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products > SharePoint 2010 Management Shell. If you have UAC enabled be sure to run it as Administrator.
Then run the following line. Be sure to replace your info for service app and database name.
Now you can celebrate you have saved the world another GUID. I have a master post here with all of the anti GUID posts linked in one place. Right here.
Thx

Renaming the Oracle10gXE database name

Hi,
Oralce10gXe
Linux Os
How to rename the database name from 'XE' (default) to for eg. 'TEST' ?
what are the exact steps for it ?
Regards

Hi,
it is possible to change the SID of XE like any other Oracle edition. The easiest way to do so is to use the nid (newid) utility in $ORACLE_HOME/bin (you shutdown the database cleanly, open in mount state and then execute nid target=sys/password@xe dbname=newSID, then change the dbname in init/spfile, rename the init/spfile to contain the new sid, generate new password file using passwd, and open the database with resetlogs).
However, I would not recommend renaming the XE database. I did that, and it has been a pain, since our developers changed the hardware several times, wished for new testing and development installations, and I had to play again and again with the changing of default oracle scripts. As with XE, you can run only one XE edition instance on the server (that does not change by renaming it). With that in mind, there are multiple oracle scripts with ORACLE_SID=XE hardcoded in them. Namely the /etc/init.d/oracle-xe, then all the scripts in $ORACLE_HOME/config/scripts related to starting/stopping and backing up the db, not forgetting the oracle_env.sh...
Having the experience, I would simply recommend leaving the ORACLE_SID=XE, and changing the service_name, or the TNSNAMES.ora alias. That should be sufficient for the developers to "see a pretty name".
Kind regards,
Martin

How to share the same Database Connection when using several Task Flows ?

Hi All,
I’m using JDev 11.1.1.3.0.
I’m developing ADF Fusion Applications (ABC BC, ADF Faces…)
These applications are deployed on a Weblogic server.
Each application has only one Application Module.
All Application Modules have the same connection type defined: JDBC DataSource : jdbc/GCCDS
It is working fine.
I’ve also developed Task Flow Applications for small thinks that are reused in multiple main applications.
Each Task Flow Application has also one Application Module with the same connections type as main applications.
All these task flows are deployed to JAR file (ADF Library JAR File) and are reused on my main applications. (drag and drop from the Resource Palette to ADF Regions….).
There are some parameters passed to Task Flows, so that they can filter data depending on which main applications they are called from.
Everything is working perfectly.
All my main applications are using more and more task flows. Which is nice for the reusability etc…?
Only ONE PROBLEM: DATABASE CONNECTIONS.
Every Task Flows service made a database connection. So one user may have 10 database connections for the same adf page. And when there are 100 users that are working at the same time, it becomes a problem.
How to share the same database connections for the main applications and all task flows which are used in the main application?
Best Regards
Nicolas

Hi John,
When I open a ADF Library JAR file of one of my task flow. (gcc_tf_recentSites.jar)
I can see TF_RecentSitesService.xml and TF_RecentSitesServiceImpl.class in gcc_tf_recentSites.jar\mu\gcc\tf\recentSites\model\service folder
+ bc4j.xcfg in gcc_tf_recentSites.jar\mu\gcc\tf\recentSites\model\service\common folder.
bc4j.xcfg details are
+<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>+
+<BC4JConfig version="11.1" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bc4j/configuration">+
+<AppModuleConfigBag ApplicationName="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.service.TF_RecentSitesService">+
+<AppModuleConfig DeployPlatform="LOCAL" jbo.project="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.TF_RecentSites_Model" name="TF_RecentSitesServiceLocal" ApplicationName="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.service.TF_RecentSitesService">+
+<Security AppModuleJndiName="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.service.TF_RecentSitesService"/>+
+<Custom JDBCDataSource="jdbc/GCCDS"/>+
+</AppModuleConfig>+
+<AppModuleConfig name="TF_RecentSitesServiceShared" ApplicationName="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.service.TF_RecentSitesService" DeployPlatform="LOCAL" JDBCName="gccdev" jbo.project="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.TF_RecentSites_Model">+
+<AM-Pooling jbo.ampool.maxpoolsize="1" jbo.ampool.isuseexclusive="false"/>+
+<Security AppModuleJndiName="mu.gcc.tf.recentSites.model.service.TF_RecentSitesService"/>+
+</AppModuleConfig>+
+</AppModuleConfigBag>+
+</BC4JConfig>+
So, it seems that the Application Module is packaged with the task flow....
Is it normal ?

hi,
Does anyone know how to rename the column name in oracle 8i?My method was drop the relationship key first then delete the old column,finally add the new column.

For you task one example given below.
Example:-
Already existed table is ITEMS
columns in ITEMS are ITID, ITEMNAME.
But instead of ITID I want ITEMID.
Solution:-
step 1 :- create table items_dup
as select itid itemid, itemname from items;
step 2 :- drop table items;
step 3 :- rename items_dup to items;
Result:-
ITEMS table contains columns ITEMID, ITEMNAME

How to modify the search results of the GUI for subscribing to calendars

How to modify the search results of the GUI for subscribing to calendars
Note:
<OL>
<LI>The following information applies only to iPlanet Calendar Server 5.0
Patch 3.
<LI>All of the cases for which the XSLT changes will work have not been
verified.
<LI>The following is only an example of an XSLT customization.
</OL>
The example below shows a sample customization of the
search_for_calendars
dialog. This customization will result in the Display Name being included as
part of the search results in the GUI, which would normally show just the
calendar ID. It will render the returned calendars in the following format:
<P>
Display Name - <I>description</I>
<P>
Normally, the format would be as follows:
<P>
Calendar-ID - <I>description</I>
<P>
</A>
The example consists of the following two files:
<P>
<OL>
<LI>search_for_calendars_common.xsl

How to get the search option when we are creating new view

Hi,
How to get the search functionality when we are creating new view.
Ex:- if we see the standard component BT112S_SC. Under this
AdvancedSP is the view,
same kind of view if i want to create new view with same bol entity in my new component. I am unable to get that search functionality.
for search functionality,,i think view should inherit the super class CL_BTSRV_ADVS_CNTRL, but in my new view controller class, i am unable to find this class.
Can anybody give me some inputs on this.
Thanks,
neelam

In case you are still not able to proceed please refer the following blog.
