Installing and deploying a .webpart file in SharePoint 2013

I have a webpart that took from a SharePoint 2010 web site from its webparts library. This webpart has the .webpart extension. I downloaded it as a copy. Now I want to install it to a SharePoint 2013 site ti its webpart gallery. I tried using Visual Studio
by opening the .webpart file and copy its XML to the new empty .webpart source code. Also I uploaded the .webpart file to the Sharepoint 2013 WebPart Library. That also not successful. There was an error regarding when I insert the webpart to a page with a
Correlation ID.
The error is at the below.
Unable to display this web part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this web page in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation compatible HTML editor such as ...........................
Correlation ID: cb3b839c-b011-e0f5-999c-31292d78623c
Then how am I supposed to do this properly. I am new to Sharepoint.
Could someone please help me to solve this matter?
Thank you,
Regards,
Chiranthaka

What web part is it? Is it a custom / third party one?
Also, more information on the .webpart structure might be handy -

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to show a list data in a page using jQuery and Content Query Web Part.
You could use SharePoint REST API to accomplish your requirement, please refer to this code below:
<div id="listData">
</div>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
//replace your list title
$.ajax({
url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('customlist03')/items",
type: "GET",
headers: {"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose"},
success: function (data) {
if (data.d.results) {
var obj = data.d.results;
for(var i = 0; i < obj.length; i++)
$("#listData").append("<div>title "+obj[i].Title+"</div>");
error: function (xhr) {
alert(xhr.status + ': ' + xhr.statusText);
</script>
The screenshot below is my result:

How can i deploy sandboxed solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online using powershell script?

Is there any way to deploy the Sandbox solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online publishing site using powershell or CSOM or any other way?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to deploy sandboxed solution .wsp file to sharepoint 2013 online.
"Add-SPSolution" command is not available in SharePoint Online management shell. So, we cannot use PowerShell to update and deploy a solution in SharePoint Online environment. Meanwhile, here is index of Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Online
cmdlets for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161364.aspx
You can CSOM to deploy solution using helper class from CodePlex. The activation code is as follows: SandboxSolutions.ActivateSolution(siteCollectionURl, cookies, "solution_name.wsp");
About the Client Side Object Model (CSOM), it is a development related issue, we have a specific support channel for the SharePoint developers, so I recommend you go to our MSDN forum for further assistance.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look at:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/156/t/197404.aspx
In addition, if you would like to upload and activate sandbox solution manually, you can refer to:

How to Install and deploy Oracle Discoverer in Oracle AppServer 10.1.3.2

Hi,
one possible solution is to use an intermediate array. The intermediate array should be used in the user interface. When new data is entered the VI should read each element and then compare to the elements in the stored array. If all elements are different then update the array, otherwise display a fault message.
You could use asequence activated when the Enter button is pressed. In the first frame you would compare the First array with the stored array. it is probably best to use a Boolean indicator to show if the data is valid Make sure you declare this as a local variable.
With the sequence you can perform the comparisons in several seperate frames or in one frame with a OR to link the results. For large numbers of comparisons I prefer to use m
ultiple frames because otherwise the screen becomes a maze of wires and other programmers who may need to maintain the code in the future will find it hard to follow a single frame.
Once all the data items have been compared then the following sequence should contain a CASE statement of type True/False. Link a readable copy of your local variable to the selector of this statement. Then in the FALSE case (Assuming you have linked the boolean to be false when no data is duplicated) copy the new array to the stored array. In the TRUE case bring up an error message.
So long as your arrays are not too large and you do not use this technique in too many places in your code the processor overhead should not be badly affected. For frequent use of such a caomparison in several VIs you may want to create a dedicated subVI for the task. For very large arrays you should seek a different solution.
Hope that helps a bit.
Good luck,
Shaf

Jabber GUest Server 10.5 Install and deploy

HI,
I try to install and deploy my first jabber guest Server 10.5 .What I see is that I should use a secure sip trunk to the ucm ? is this really needed ?,because if I use secure sip trunk I have to install certs
Could I deploy it without secure sip trunk ? and only use self cert between expressway c and e ?
Thanks for your Information
Josef

Hi Josef,
It is fine to configure SIP trunk on UCM to be non-secure.
Between C and E you just need to make sure there are CA-signed certs installed. Doesn't matter which CA, could be your own.
Hope this helps.

How to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to Sharepoint 2013.

Hi,
Can some one guide me how to deploy SSRS 2008 reports to SharePoint 2013 by giving the exact steps from where to begin. We have all our reports deployed in SharePoint 2010.Need to migrate those reports to Sharepoint 2013 instance. I
also want to know how and where exactly we modify the connection strings to manage the data sources for the reports . Since I am very new to this field I am not able to properly understand other sites i have gone through . I have gone through the prerequisites
also.Kindly help me by providing step by step method.
Thanks,
Mridhula

If you don't just want to upgrade your database, simply open the report project (which should be on your local file system) and edit the report properties, changing the Report Server URLs appropriately to the new SharePoint server URLs.

Difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013

Hi, We are building company site with Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise Edition and were wondering what is the difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013? What are the roles/purposes of each one? What
happens if only Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode installed or vise versa.
Thank you in advance

Reporting Services in SharePoint mode is a service for displaying, managing, and creating SSRS reports within SharePoint. The addin is a pre-req for SharePoint that is used to display reports and is required for Reporting Services in Native or SharePoint
mode, but does not by itself do anything.

Can't open Excel files from Sharepoint 2013

I am having an issue with opening Excel files from SharePoint 2013. If I click on an excel file it comes up with the error below.
If I click Try again I get the message below also:
If I try to open Word or PDF files they open correctly in the appropriate client and I have the option of checking them out and editing them. Any ideas why this would only be happening to Excel files?
Thanks,
Shaun

Hi Shaun,
I understand that the Excel files cannot be opened from SharePoint in Microsoft Excel.
Can these files be viewed in the browser?
I recommend to download a copy of the files with issue and then open them in Excel to see if the issue still occurs.
If above cannot work, I recommend to repair Office.
Best regards.

Update Column value after current item is Approved and then publish major version using Sharepoint 2013 designer workflow

Hi,
We have a requirement to update a column value once the item has been approved.
Following settings have been made in the publishing articles list:
Require content approval for submitted items : yes
Create major and minor (draft) versions
Who should see draft items in this document library? :Only users who can edit items
Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? : yes
I have createdatu a Sharepoint 2013 workflow to check if Approval sts of current item = 0 i.e. Approved , then check out and update the item and finally checkin the item. Everything works fine till this point except that the minor version of the item is
checked in. Due to this the updated columns are not published to others.
Also, I created a Sharepoint 2010 workflow to SET CONTENT APPROVAL = APPROVED and started this workflow from my list workflow above, but the item does not get checked-in and always shows "In Progress" status with comment "The item is currently
locked for editing. Waiting for item to be checked in or for the lock to be released.".
Please let me know where I am missing out so that once the item is approved, column value gets updated and current item is still in Approved status.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to update Column value after current item is Approved and then publish major version using Sharepoint 2013 designer workflow.
You will get into this kind of Catch-22 situation trying to set the Content Approval Status in SharePoint Designer workflow:
- You must check out the document before you can change the Content Approval Status
- You can't change the Content Approval Status once the document in checked out
Since you set the Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited=Yes, you will need to check out the document when run the workflow on the item. But you cannot approve a document when it is checked
out. So the logic in workflow conflicts.
As a workaround, you can use the Start Another Workflow action to start the normal Approval workflow on the document. The built-in Approval workflow can work with a document that’s not checked out.
The designer approval workflow also can work with a document that’s not checked out.
You can create two workflow using SharePoint Designer 2013.
First, create a SharePoint 2010 platform workflow.
Then, create a SharePoint 2013 platform workflow.
Then when the SharePoint 2013 platform workflow start, it will start the SharePoint 2010 platform workflow to set content approval status, then the SharePoint 2013 platform workflow will update current item value.

How to copy and paste the solution files of SharePoint 2010 from one machine to another machine?

Hi,
I was working with SharePoint 2010 in one of my Virtual machines.Now that the lease for my Virtual Machine is going to expire, I want to shift the entire contents of the project to another machine (local) with SharePoint 2010. Also, I want the pages
in the other machine to be editable.
How can I copy the solution files to the other machine? And I want the exact path where the files are located, so that I can shift them to the other machine.
Thanks in advance.

...that's not a good approach.
Deploying customisations can be as simple as files being copied onto the file system. Most of the time however there is a lot more happening behind the scenes and simply copying the files won't work.
Also that is assuming that you mean solutions rather than the pages themselves (or the contents of document libraries) in which case you want to copy databases, not just files.
SharePoint isn't a simple thing to move, you may need to look at this a bit harder.

Hi Sujilkumar,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to install web part wsp using install wizard.
In SharePoint, there is no set up wizard to install the web part. If you want to install your custom web part, you can use PowerShell Commands. Before you can deploy a solution package, you need to add it to the solution database of a SharePoint
Server farm like below：
add-spsolution c:\yourwsp.wsp
Then you can install the solution like below：
Install-SPSolution -Identity <SolutionName> -WebApplication <URLname>
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

How to Deploy OOB Webparts created in Sharepoint 2010 designer to production system

Hi,
Can anyone help me the process of deploying the OOB Webparts developed in Sharepoint 2010 designer to Production Server.

So, i want to move these OOB Webparts and Workflow to my Production System.
Please assist me what is the process?
Rama

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query,
There are a lot of mechanisms for doing this, but doing a simple export from your dev environment and then an import into your prod environment is probably a good place to start. You can move the whole site or just a list/library. You can do it via PowerShell
or Central Admin:
Export:

Import:

Problem with uploading files to SharePoint 2013 in cloud using web services. Keep getting error message and don't know why.

Hello everyone. I am having trouble writing a utility that uses SharePoint web services to upload a file and metatag it. It keeps throwing the following error message:
"The request failed with the error message: -- <html><head><title>Object moved</title></head><body> <h2>Object moved to <a href="/_forms/default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fsites%2fgk%2f_vti_bin%2fcopy.asmx">here</a>.</h2>
</body></html> --."
Not sure why. I pass the file that I am going to upload to the subroutine and it is suppose to upload it to the appropriate library. I have burned several days on this problem and I am not sure what is going on. I would appreciate anyone that can point me in
the right direction. Below is the subroutine that I have that is causing the problem. Obviously, I have stripped the name from the example.
Thanks
Mike

Hi,
If you want to upload a file to a library in SharePoint 2013 online, I suggest you use Client Object Model or REST API.
