How to restore a SP 2010 Foundation site collection in a SP 2010 Enterprise Server?

Is it possible to backup a Foundation site collection and restore it in an Enterprise Server?
Or should we use export/import?
Which is the best way to perform this?
Thank you
J.Clua

I;ve done it using import/export, using a back-up I would be afraid the db schema is different for Foundation, so I'm reluctant to go that way.
Kind regards,

    How to Restore a SharePoint 2010 Sitecollection from Prod to Pre-Prod?
    The patching levels are different from each environment.
    Tools installation is same.
    Note: Suggest me to restore a site from site template without content.
    If you have any better approach please tell me.
    Many Thanks,

    Hi Madhu, 
    It isn't possible (out of the box) to restore a production to a development site without the content. 
    If you're happy with restoring the content, it's quite easy to backup a SharePoint farm and then restore only a site (form the farm backup) to a development farm. 
    Have a look at these forum posts for more info (in the first link, I gave an example script):

    How to set security group as primary site collection admin and secondary site collection admin using powershell in sharepoint online site - office 365?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set security group as admin of primary and secondary site collection using PowerShell command in office 365.
    I suggest you can use the command below to set the group to site owner, then it will have the site collection admin permission.
    Set-SPOSite -Identity https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/site1 -Owner [email protected] -NoWait

  • How to show property bag values of site collection in web part on landing page in sharepoint online?

    How to show property bag values of site collection in web part on landing page in sharepoint online - office 365?

    You can use JavaScript Client object model to read the property bag values. Example:
    function getWebProperty() {
    var ctx = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var web = ctx.get_site().get_rootWeb();
    this.props =  web.get_allProperties();
    ctx.load(web);
    ctx.load(this.props); //need to load the properties explicitly
    ctx.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, gotProperty), Function.createDelegate(this, failedGettingProperty));
    function gotProperty() {
        var myPropBag = this.props;
        alert(myPropBag.get_fieldValues()["allowdesigner"]); //returns the value of the key allowdesigner
    function failedGettingProperty(args, sender)
         //handle errors here

  • How to set version limit for entire site collection

    Hi,
    We have more than 500 document libraries in one site collection. I see some of them have more than 50 versions & taking lot of storage space. So planning to limit the version's to 3 Major and 3 Minor for entire site collection. How can we do that? I
    know we can set to individual library by how can we do that for entire site collection?
    Thanks
    Rithu.
    Rithu

    The version limit is a library specific setting, so you'll need to use PowerShell to set the property value on each library in every site in the site collection.  Here's a sample script that sets if for one library.  You'll need to expand the script
    to walk the sites recursively and run this for every library.  
    https://consultantpoint.wordpress.com/2012/06/15/powershell-setconfigure-document-library-with-majorversionlimit-majorwithminorversionslimit-require-to-checkout-before-editing/
    Please Note: Changing these settings won't delete old versions.  That only happens after each item in the list or library is edited.

  • How to provide internet access for a site collection in SharePoint Foundation 2010

    Hi all,
    I am working on SharePoint Foundation 2010. I have to make a site collection available on internet.
    Only one site collection is to be brought on internet rest of the site collections should not be accessible from outside.
    How do I achieve this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    As per my knowledge, you have to create new Web Application for your site to publishing it to internet. Since internet settings can be done at web application so create new one and then backup your existing site and restore in new web app.
    You can refer below thread for licensing:

  • How to change managed path of a site collection (without backup/restore)?

    Hi
    Other than backup/restore a site collection to another site collection with different managed path, is there is any other way to change the managed path of a site collection directly using Powershell or Central Admin?

    Yes you can use powershell script to change the managed path.

  • How-To: Migrate Classic Path-based SP2010 Site Collection with OOTB/SPD Workflows = To: Claims Different Path-based SP2013 Site Collection ?

    Hello,
    I want to move an entire site collection from an old SharePoint 2010 farm to a new SharePoint 2013 farm. But there are a few requirements:
    - The old SP2010 site collection contains multiple SPD Workflows and OOTB Workflows.
    - URLs must be changes as the example: 
    Source Site Collection URL: http://OldWebApp.SP2010.com/sites/OldSiteCollection 
    Destination Site Collection URL shall be: http://NewWebApp.SP2013.com/projects/NewSiteCollection
    - There are no custom solutions nor web parts.
    How to accomplis this successfully ?
    My steps would be:
    1) Copying the content database from SP2010 SQL to the SP2013 SQL via: Copy-only backup feature, or the traditional Backup & Restore.
    2) I have already the Web Application on the new SP2013 ready, So, I will just need to create the destination site collection in the SP2013 environment with the new desired URL: (http:\\NewWebApp.SP2013.com\projects\NewSiteCollection).
    3) Remove the newly created Content Database of the new site collection in the destination environment.
    4) Test-SPContentDatabase -name Old_Content_DB -webapplication http://NewWebApp.SP2013.com > C:\Issues.txt
    My worry is that the SP2010 Web Application is Classic-based and I cannot change the entire Web Application to Claims-based as it hosts other running site collections !
    Equally, My other worry is that the SP2013 Web Application is Claims-based and I cannot change the entire Web Application to Classic-based as it hosts other running site collections !
    First-Question=> I cannot run Convert-SPWebApplication as I don't want to impact the entire source nor destination web applications - How to resolve this?
    5) Mount-SPContentDatabase "Old_Content_DB" -DatabaseServer "DBServer" -WebApplication http://NewWebApp.SP2013.com
    Second-Question=> As I mentioned above that my requirement is to migrate this old SP2010 site collaction to a totally new URL in SP 2013. My concern is that after completing step-5, the site
    collection will overwrite the root new web application and it gets placed on: (http://NewWebApp.SP2013.com) !  I want it to be: (http://NewWebApp.SP2013.com/projects/NewSiteCollection) ? How to do this trick?
    Third-Question=> Will all the SPD Workflows & the OOTB Workflows work correctly after the entire site collection has been moved from SP2010 to SP2013? I am asking this because I seen this:
    (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/chandru/archive/2013/04/14/upgrading-spd-2010-workflows-to-spd-2013-workflows.aspx), and I got scared. What do you think ?
    Could you please help me out in my three questions ?

    Following are the steps:
    Take the backup of the content database in SP 2010.
    Create a classic based web application in SP 2013 using PowerShell.
    New-SPWebApplication -Name "TestApplication" -ApplicationPool "TestApplicationAppPool" -AuthenticationMethod "NTLM" -ApplicationPoolAc
    Create a content database in the web application created above.
    Mount the database 
    Mount-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content_100 -DatabaseServer SQL2012Demo -WebApplication http://sp2013demo:100
    Now convert the web application to use claims authentication:
    Convert-SPWebApplication -Identity "http://sp2013demo:100" -To Claims –RetainPermissions -Force
    Finally, migrate the users to use claims identity:
    $w = Get-SPWebApplication "http://sp2013demo:100"
    $w.MigrateUsers($True)

  • How can I create a host name site collection when I have a 443 web application already created for App model?

    Hi all,
    I have a 2013 farm set up with the App model
    1 web application for path based site collection using host name
    1 web application with SSL (no host name)
    1 web application for mysite
    My business request is that  I need to migrate SSL enabled 2007 content to this farm and use host name site collections.  I tried to create one more web application for this without any luck (the 443 IIS folder is already used by another web application). 
    I thought I bind the previous 443 web application with another IP address should be fine.  Seems like the IIS site is taken (https://server name:443) so it will not let me create one more.  How can I solve this problem so I can create the web application
    to host those host name site collections?  Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Sally

    Hi Trevor,
    Thanks again for your quick reply.  I try the option 2 right after your post.  I use my front end server name for public URL (https://WFEName:443) and it fails again.  The error message is:
    The directory C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\443 is already being used by another IIS Web Site.  Choose a different root directory for your new Web application.
    After reading more, I saw mix Hosted Name Site collection and Path-based site collection aren't recommended.  Unfortunately I already have Path-based site collection created with App model web application
    (the web application without host name) in my farm.  In my Option 2, that web application without host name is used for App routing.  This takes the root folder 443 which will not allow any other web application to use the same name again. 
    Does that mean we can't create Host Named Site collection in the same farm?  Is there any configuration I need to check?
    Thanks again.

  • How to change PowerPoint Template across multiple site collections

    I am failry new to SharePoint, and my organization has asked me to research how to change a PowerPoint template that is stored on multiple site collections. There are current PowerPoints based on the template and they wanted to be sure those wouldn't be
    affected, as well. They want a "quick and easy" way to update the template that the divisions in the company use without manually going into each site collection. A co-worker said she hopes to "replace the current...template at the site
    collection and it will modify the available content type when selecting new document."
    Any help on how to handle this would be appreciated.

    This will really depend how the template has been packaged.  If it's a content type, than editing this and making sure that the "update content type" radio is selected will do the trick. Can you ask someone who's made one to show you how they generate
    the template. If it's within the New --> XXX Document, than you're in luck
    If they're just deployed as normal files within a library, you'll have a much harder time.

  • Accident restore central administrator with other site collection

    I accidentally restored central admin with another site. Can I get restore central admin back? Central admin run on port 2013 and I restored it with another using command Restore-SPSite
    -force. Currently other sites are working fine except central admin.
    I tried using psconfig.exe but
    its still not working. It display central admin like CVO site. After that I tried using SharePoint 2013 Products configuration Wizard. But still not working. 

    I must say that I have never heard this before. What you could try is delete
    the site collection and run the Products Configuration Wizard again.

  • How to retrive latest items from different site collection using content search web part

    I have a web application that contains two site collections(team site + enterprise wiki), with the following URLs:-
    -http://applicationname/teamsite
    -http://applicationname/enterprisewik
    Now I need to display the latest 10 wiki pages that are inside the enterprise wiki site collection (according to the modified date) inside the team site. So I read that using Content search web part allows for cross-site content query.
    So I added a new content search web part , inside my team site, and I click on “change query” button. But I am not sure how I can reference the enterprise wiki site collection's library and to specify that I need to get the latest 10 wiki pages using the
    content search web part's query dialog box? Can anyone advice please ?
    Thanks

    Edit the webpart and click change query in search criteria.  click on switch to advanced mode and enter your path:
    (path:"http://applicationname/teamsite" OR path:"http://applicationname/enterprisewik")
    you can specify sorting by created date and click ok.  in number of items to show, type 10.  this should fulfill your requirement.

  • How to find which authentication used to site collection and site using powershell

    Hi,
    How to find  how-many web app, sitecollection, site used Windows authentication,claim authentication and classic, secure store authention , adfs authentication using powershell code in sharepoint 2013.
    If sites are used adfs authentication how to find which email id used for that.
    Thanks,

    Authentication is only defined at the Web Application level, and the only valid auth methods are Classic (Windows (Basic/NTLM/Kerberos)), Claims (Windows (Basic/NTLM/Kerberos)), FBA Claims, , SAML Claims (ADFS), and Anonymous.
    You can find out what authentication scheme(s) are enabled via:
    $wa = Get-SPWebApplication http://webApp1$wa.IisSettings["Default"] #replace with the zone name you're interested in
    The output will look similar to this:
    PS C:\Users\trevor> $wa.IisSettings["Default"]
    AuthenticationMode : Forms
    MembershipProvider : i
    RoleManager : c
    AllowAnonymous : False
    EnableClientIntegration : True
    ServerBindings : {Microsoft.SharePoint.Admini
    stration.SPServerBinding}
    SecureBindings : {}
    UseWindowsIntegratedAuthentication : True
    UseBasicAuthentication : False
    DisableKerberos : True
    ServerComment : SharePoint
    Path : C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\Virtu
    alDirectories\spwebapp180
    PreferredInstanceId : 42768054
    UseClaimsAuthentication : True
    ClaimsAuthenticationRedirectionUrl :
    UseFormsClaimsAuthenticationProvider : False
    FormsClaimsAuthenticationProvider :
    UseTrustedClaimsAuthenticationProvider : False
    UseWindowsClaimsAuthenticationProvider : True
    OnlyUseWindowsClaimsAuthenticationProvider : True
    WindowsClaimsAuthenticationProvider : Microsoft.SharePoint.Adminis
    tration.SPWindowsAuthenticat
    ionProvider
    ClaimsAuthenticationProviders : {Windows Authentication}
    ClaimsProviders : {}
    ClientObjectModelRequiresUseRemoteAPIsPermission : True
    UpgradedPersistedProperties : {}
    So on this Web Application in the Default Zone you can tell I have Windows Claims enabled, not using Kerberos (so using NTLM), and Trusted (SAML/ADFS) is not enabled, neither is Forms or Anonymous.

  • Lync 2013 MX (on windows rt) will not connect to Lync 2010 enterprise server

    Both internal and external (through edge) will not connect. I will put in the SIP address, try to connect and it will ask for the logon credentials (domain is different from SIP domain) A minute later it will state that it was unable to sign on. When I enable
    logs I get a massive log file (~etl.bak) that is garbled and snooper will not read.
    I have had no problem signing in users with Lync for the ipad, windows phone, or android devices. Does anyone know a way to troubleshoot this further?

    Make sure you use the following to log on
    SIP Address : [email protected]
    Account : Domain\user
    - Belgian Unified Communications Community : http://www.pro-lync.be - MCM/MVP/MCT
    Tried all the combinations, but I heard a rumor that the company has messed-up or incomplete DNS entries and won't fix it. On the Lync desktop versions I can work around this by using advanced connection settings (which don't exist on the WinRT/Store
    app) to specify manual internal and external names.
    Also tried entering sip.company.com and sipexternal.company.com in hosts file but that doesn't work either. that was suggested elsewhere as a fallback mechanism, but it doesn't seem to work when potentially invalid SRV entries already exist.
    What I really need is for Microsoft to support the advanced connection settings, there's no other way around that.
    Two questions:
    1) Anyone know how to get access to the logging information which is enabled in the options of the Windows Store app? It's a long shot but maybe I can find somebody in this big company who will want to correct it.
    2) Do we use the usual MS Connect to make bug/feature requests for the store apps too? For many years now a lot of products have been missing from there in favor of other feedback systems like User Voice (e.g. Windows Phone and Visual Studio). So you never
    know exactly which is the right place to report such stuff nowadays (shame because Connect seemed like a universal solution at the start).
