Loading itextsharp in SharePoint 2013 Project

I added the reference to itextsharp.dll to my SharePoint 2013 project in Visual Studio 2013 Pro.
When I run the project, I get an error:
"Could not load file or assembly 'itextsharp, Version=5.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8354ae6d2174ddca' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
What can I do to resolve this error?
Thanks!
Jason

Hi,
We can add the itextsharp.dll file into GAC(C:\Windows\assembly) and execute the
iisreset command.

Network Load Balancing between SharePoint 2013 App server and WFE

Hi,
Can we do NLB between SharePoint 2013 App server and WFE Server ?
Below is our Architecture,
1. WFE Server (1)
2. APP Server (1)
3. Database Server
4. Domain Controller
We have configured NLB but, when we stop IIS on APP server, SharePoint 2013 web app link is not working.
is it possible ?
Please help us

You can do NLB between WFE and APP server however make sure that web application service is started from central admin which host sharepoint sites.
Why do you stop IIS on APP server, definitely it will not be able to host web app sites. rather you can just disable APP node on NLB to test it.

Deploying Project Server 2013 to an Existing SharePoint 2013 Farm

We recently deployed the following for our new SharePoint 2013 farm:
2 SQL server (alwaysOn config)
2 application servers
2 WFE
1 SQL for Dedicated Search
2 WFE for Dedicated Search
2 Applications Servers for Dedicated Search.
After purchasing a company that uses Project 2013 heavily we are now looking at deploying Project 2013 using our new 2013 SharePoint farm. My question is what is the recommended additional servers that would needed to be deployed to the existing farm?
Thanks,
Ric

Ric,
It really depends on what your current dataset is, and what the load on your SharePoint Server/Project Server. Technically, Project Server can just sit on top of your WFE and App Servers for SharePoint. You do not need a complete separate server group
for Project Server alone, unless there is a special reason to do so.

Sharepoint 2013 - InfoPath Web Part Errors

There may be a better way to accomplish what I'm doing so I will explain the idea first. I'm putting together a PMO Sharepoint Site which contains drill down project information from 4 groups to over 500 projects. I would like to display the
data in a more dynamic way than just in lists so I am attempting to use an InfoPath form to display dynamic data in a more friendly text view.
After creating a form view in InfoPath 2010, I loaded it into Sharepoint 2013. I went through "Connections" and selected "Get Form From" and chose a web part list. After choosing the view and saving I receive this error. Sometimes
it saves correctly but when I go back to edit the web part this error appears.

This has been answered for SP 2010 at SP:SO. Things wont change much in SP 2013 as far as VWP is concerned. Basically you will need to implement Custom Web Part Editor.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6946153/edit-webpart-properties-with-dynamic-dropdownlist
Here is an example.

Problem with VS2012 and Sharepoint 2013 Solution

Hello everyone
I've got a problem that's driving me crazy. I'm migrating a Sharepoint 2010/Visual Studio 2010 Solution to Sharepoint 2013/visual Studio 2012 with the developer tools.
My solution consists of 3 class libraries (common, data access layer and business logic) and a Sharepoint 2013 project containing the features, and the webparts using the output of the class libraries. The references inside projects are set through "Add
Reference -> Solution -> Projects". I want a wsp-file containing the sharepoint artifacts and the assemblies from my class libraries. (those are added through the package explorer -> Advanced). If i use Build/Rebuild on the Solution it compiles fine,
as it should.
If i use the "deploy" or "publish" command on visual studio to create a solution package, the build fails with the message:
"The type or namespace name 'whatever' does not exist in the namespace 'Xyz.Project'' (are you missing an assembly reference?)
I can't find out what's wrong. if i deploy anything manually everything works fine. building/rebuilding my whole solution works fine. Everything is set to .NET 4.5. It seems to be that "wsp-package"-building process that has a problem.
Any hint/idea would be welcome.
Greetings
Carlos

To fix this, simply remove the reference to your "common" code library and re-add it as an assembly reference (as opposed to a project reference). I.e. Select 'Add reference...' and then browse to
the 'bin' folder of your "common" library.
I did in fact consider that. But it can hardly considered good style and you lose a lot of benefits. The biggest of all being that you can never be sure you are working with latest versions of your common class libraries.
While unloading/reloading worked in VS 2012 things are worse in VS 2013. In VS 2013 the solution doesn't package anymore at all. No matter what you do. Cleaning, rebuilding, reloading... I tried all of that in vain.
Edit: And while I'm at it... great job in marking a totally irrelevant posting as answer. Another trigger happy content moderator. I really wonder if their financial goals are tied to the number of postings they mark as answered.
Solution: See here: http://ddkonline.blogspot.de/2013/10/build-and-packagepublish-behaviour.html
The key thing is - your common project assemblies need to be added in a particular order (in the order your assemblies need to be built)

SharePoint 2013 users only see custom list and document lists that they uniquely created

In my first SharePoint 2013 project, I want to create a view where users can only see their own files that they generated. I think I know how to create this view when the list is associated with the 'Documents; folder. However I have created several custom
lists where I can only see these items when I am on the navigation pane to the right and the unique custom lists are listed under 'recent'.
Let me know if you can answer any of the following questions:
1. When on the main SharePoint website, can lists be displayed in other locations than what I just listed? If so, where would I see these other lists?
2. I would like to include the custom lists that are located in the 'recent' navigation pane as a view that only I can use. This would be based upon userid. If this is possible, how would you combine the lists lists in the same view? If this is not possible,
how would you set a view just for the lists listed under the 'recent' section?
3. The content approval solution under versioning settings of a library to restrict the documents to only ones that the user created (and also Approver rights). Then if they create a new view they still won't see the documents that were not created by
them. What about custom lists that are not in the documents area but are in the 'recent' area? Would this restrict users to see only items that they created?
4. Item level Permissions in advance settings solve this problem for the list in the document area and the custom list in the recent area? If so, how would you setup these values?

As it turns out the, setting Item-Level Permissions in a library is fully supported with PowerShell!
The PowerShell commands for changing this are very simple:
$web = Get-SPWeb http://YourSite/
$list = $web.Lists[“Your Document Library Name”]
$list.ReadSecurity = 2
$list.Update()
$web.Dispose()
Note the 3rd line which is where you determine the value for this setting using the following values:
1 = “Read all items”
2 = “Read items that were created by the user”
If you wish to modify the values for Create and Edit access instead, replace .ReadSecurity with .WriteSecurity with
the following values:
1 = “Create and edit All items”
2 = “Create items and edit items that were created by the user”
4 = “None”
For example:
$web = Get-SPWeb http://YourSite/
$list = $web.Lists[“Your Document Library Name”]
$list.WriteSecurity = 2
$list.Update()
$web.Dispose()

SharePoint 2013 Development Environment for Devolopers

Hi All,
What is the system requirements for developing and deploying web-parts in SharePoint site for developers?
we are getting above error when trying to deploying web parts from local machine, our local machine configuration in win 7 with visual studio 2013.
Mani L

Hi,
This is a known bug that will be fixed in the future versions of the SharePoint Developer Tools.
As for now the workaround is to have the host mapped in the hosts file not to 127.0.0.1 but to your real IP address.
When you try to create a new SharePoint 2013 project or will change the URL of an existing project everything will work as expected.
Please mark the same as answer if it helps you. Thanks.

Hi,
I would like to create WebParts on SharePoint 2013 (in Visual Studio 2012) version but I would like to run them on SP 2010 too. So it would be great to have such compability back one solution under VS 2012. Is it possible to
make this one to not duplicate code for different versions?
Thanx for any info!

Sharepoint 2013 custom workflow issue

Hi,
We are developing custom workflow in our sharepoint 2013 project using Visual studio 2013. We have got one issue while list item updation in custom workflow.
'Modified By' field is changed to System Account while updating item. It is not done with elevated privilege or not with user token.
Thanks in advance
Nithya K Pillai

Hi Nithya,
You can try powershell to change the Modified by -
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/projectserver/Update-SharePoint-list-4e6272ab
or before your update method get the user and update the modified by like the below-
Item["Editor"] = User;
Item.Update();
Alternatively try using listItem.SystemUpdate for not updating modified by values -

Mega drop down SharePoint 2013 - Any more third party tool

Im looking for a mega dropdown menu to use in a sharepoint 2013 project. I'm happy to use a third party one like this one
archetonomy
But i need some other similar ones to compare too but can't find any. I would appreciate if can find more of this.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Pradeep,
According to your description, my understanding is that you need to a third party tool for uploading bulk meta data tagging in SharePoint 2013.
There are some third party tools for it, but, most of them are not free.
Below are some examples, please take a look at:

SharePoint 2013 RSS Viewer not loading when other Custom web part using Update Panel or Ajax Timer control

Hi,
SharePoint 2013 RSS
Viewer web part failing to complete loading when the page loads.
This happens when having RSS Viewer and then adding a Custom webpart with an updatepanel and timer control.
I had used Ajax update panel and timer control to load the web part asynchronously after the main page is fully loaded.
The RSS-Viewer web part hangs in loading state while the custom webpart loads just fine.
The issue occurs when an like button click or Timer Tick event fires after the page
is loaded.
Haven't been able to track the issue.
Couple of workaround I tried to call a server side button click event from the custom web part after the page gets fully loaded using JQuery shown below did not work out either.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#<%= netButton2.ClientID %>').click();
And
document.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (document.readyState == "complete") {
$('#<%= netButton2.ClientID %>').click();
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Franklin

Hi Johan,
The assignment of this user on the given task might be corrupted. Try to remove the resource from the task, publish the project, assign the resource again and publish again the project. If it is not working, try to unpublish the task (column "publish")
and publih it again.
Hope this helps,

Does ADFS work with SharePoint 2013 with WFEs SSL-offloaded to a F5 load balancer?

Currently we are implementing a SharePoint 2013 Production environment with 2 WFEs load-balanced by F5. SSL is offloaded to F5 and is currently working fine with Integrated Windows Authentication with NTLM. We would like to implement ADFS 3.0
later for Single Sign-on, and we are wondering if ADFS supports SSL offload.
Do we need to bind the certificate to the WFEs as well to use ADFS?
Thank you!

Just got it confirmed that ADFS supports SSL offload. There is no direct communication between SharePoint and ADFS server during the authentication process. It is always the browser that's talking to ADFS server. We just need to do the following:
Configure SharePoint URLs in ADFS as replying parties with https.
Configure AAM in SharePoint to make sure internal URL is http and public URL is https.

Unable to load media error when trying to play a video in Sharepoint 2013

My team consistently gets an error when trying to play a video in SharePoint 2013. I can upload it, pick a thumbnail and save it. When anyone else goes to the intranet site and tries to play the video, they get a media failed to load error.
I have tried mp4 and wmv formats. I at first thought it had to do with the codec used in Camtasia to create the video, so I encoded it in Microsoft Encoder to a wmv and it still fails. All of the videos I upload fail for other users. If someone else uploads
a video, I get the error and cannot play the video. If I look at the library in Explorer, the video file is missing but the subdirectories for additional content and thumbnails are present. For the videos I upload and can play but everyone else
gets the error, I see those subdirectories as well as the video file itself.

Is there a way in install a trial version of Project server on a Licensed edition server of sharepoint 2013?

Is there a way in install a trial version of Project server on a Licensed edition server of sharepoint 2013? Is there anyway around this or do I need to make a new box all trial versions to test this out?
Thanks
James T.F

James,
Yes, it is possible , however I wont recommend to do it. Since, once Project trial period expires you need to uninstall project server which can not be done without uninstalling SharePoint. Unless you are willing to rebuild the farm once your
testing is completed
