MOSS 2007; Manage Content & Structure = timeout & authentication request = 401

Hi,
I am having from time to time some issues with an older MOSS 2007 environment. Sometimes browsing to manage Content & Structure ends up in a long thinking process which ends with an authentication request. A Timeout seems to happen. Whatever a user enters...
it ends ip in a 401 error. That does not happen every time, but sometimes. The rest of Sharepoint works well.
Let me first describe the environment. The environment is fully virtualized. The content db is huge - the approx size is about 1 TB. There is only 1 site collection and quite a huge site structure.
The environment as such
2 WFE
1 IDX
1 SQL 2005 Cluster
We use Kerberos for authentication.
The w3wp processes grow to about 1-2 GB.
We have identified that when SQL Cluster fails from one node to the other.. this symptom disappears for a while. I have no clue what this can have to do with the described effects.
An IISRESET on all servers sometimes helps, too.
We cannot identify any errors, but the issue is really annoying.
Any thoughts?

Hi Sven,
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue.
Thanks,

While crawling content from Moss 2007 to Sp2013 its throwing error

hi,
When i am trying to crawl the Moss 2007 site content in SP2013 serach I am getting below Error in the Crawl error log.
I have provided owner access for the Moss 2007 content DB,to the user accout which i am using in SP2013 serach.And also provided read access for this account to the Moss 2007.But still i am unable to crawl.
1 The URL of the item could not be resolved. The repository might be unavailable, or the crawler proxy settings are not configured. To configure the crawler proxy settings, use Search Administration page.
2 This item could not be crawled because the repository did not respond within the specified timeout period. Try to crawl the repository at a later time, or increase the timeout value on the Proxy and Timeout page in search administration. You might
also want to crawl this repository during off-peak usage times.
3 The crawler could not communicate with the server. Check that the server is available and that the firewall access is configured correctly. If the repository was temporarily unavailable, an incremental crawl will fix this error.
4 Access is denied. Verify that either the Default Content Access Account has access to this repository, or add a crawl rule to crawl this repository. If the repository being crawled is a SharePoint repository, verify that the account you are using
has "Full Read" permissions on the SharePoint Web Application being crawled.

Try to use website as content source to crawl it
Create disableloopbackcheck registry on all sharepoint servers
Are you able to browse sharepoint sites from crawl server.

http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/93691/using-sharepoint-2013-to-crawl-sharepoint-2007
If you are still struggling you can watch the requests by using Fiddler as a proxy for the crawl process. Then you can kick off the crawl and watch the requests and the response from the 2007 server.

How to set Current User in moss 2007 for Authentication....

Hi Team,
We have current running website where we have user id to login but now requirement is that user will login with his Email address. Email is stored in active directory, I'm able to login with fba authentication.
I'm able to retrieve the user id of current user using Email but
I am NOT able to set that user id for current user for further authentication using Moss 2007.

1. Current work flow :-In web site the user have to register themselves in the web site and enters his details along with user id, password and email id. Once user
is registered then he will login with his user id and password. The user id is picked from login control and that set in “SPWeb.CurrentUser” as user id and system uses "Membership.ValidateUser" method to Authenticate user for login.
2. New Requirement: we would like to facilitate the user to login with Email id as well as user id.
Problem:
We replaced "Membership.ValidateUser" method to our own method to Authenticate user with email id/user id and password.
When user is login with user id and password it is working successfully but in the case of email id and password –“the email id is picked from user control and set as
"HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name" but we are not getting “SPWeb.CurrentUser” and it shows null value.”
We are able to get user id from database using email id of user. Please help us how we can set user id in "SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser".

Cannot locate Orphaned Content in MOSS 2007 prior to updgrade to SharePoint 2010

I will soon be upgrading my MOSS 2007 farm to SP2010, so I had run the preupgradecheck command to check for any problems. It fails on "Issue: Orphan objects in Content Database" in 4 databases. It doesn't give Site IDs, only the SQL instance, the
database name and this "Integrated Security=True;Enlist=False;Connect Timeout=15" after the database name.
To try to resolve this problem, I have tried locating these using the stsadm databaserepair command, which brings back "OrphanedObjects Count="0"" for all the content databases. So after this, I tried using the enumallwebs command,
and exported this to a txt file, all fields for "InSiteMap" came back as "True" so there doesn't seem to be any orphaned site collections.
I've had a look around online, but the two options I've tried seem to be the way to locate them, and I can't find anything else.
Has anyone had this problem before? Is there another way that I can try to locate these orphaned objects? Are they likely to be sites, features, lists etc?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Content Database, this is most important stuff.
if you have mysite and User profiles then you need to move the SSP to 2010. check the below blog for steps and understanding:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/alimaz/archive/2009/11/08/upgrading-moss-2007-ssp-user-profiles-and-mysite-content-to-sharepoint-server-2010-using-db-attach-method.aspx
Yes you dont need the Central admin.

Rich Text Editor for Content Editor WPs (MOSS 2007) disappears using Office 2013/Win7/IE 11

We've upgraded our computers to Win7/IE 11 but now when I try to edit our MOSS 2007 Content Editor Web Parts, the option to choose either the Rich Text Editor or Source Editor is gone, and all I get is a tiny HTML window. What do I need to do to get back
the Rich Text edit option?

Glad that it worked. One thing you need to be aware of Compatibility View is that it adds the entire domain to the View not just the URL. So if your website is
http://sample.mycompany.com it adds entire mycompany.com to the list.
This implies if you have another site in the same domain http://onemoresite.mycompany.com , then Compatibility View is applicable even for that site. This might cause issues if your other 'breaks' when
rendered in Compatibility Mode.

MOSS 2007 Search - Crawling is taking longer than usual time since last month for same content sources

Hi all,
Off late we have discovered that content crawling is taking longer than expected also overlapping to next scheduled too. Literally no crawl logs seen for hours. No entry in crawl logs. Is there anyone out here having similar issue? Please share a solution
if any found.
My farm is implemented with MOSS 2007 SP2 Ver no 12.0.0.6554
There is not packet drop between index server, App and SQL server/Cluster
Thank you in advance,

I believe this is ready for submission for the Time Machine forum.
As noted, it does not cover diagnosis and correction of specific problems or errors, as that would seem to be better handled separately.
It also doesn't cover anything about Time Capsule, for the very good reason that I'm not familiar with them. If someone wants to draft a separate post for it, or items to add/update here, that would be great!
Thanks very much.

SharePoint 2010 Manage content and structure copy operation issue

Hi,
I am trying to copy a subsite from location A to B in the same site collection using the copy operation of Manage content and structure. Site is getting copied but default.aspx page is not getting copied to the destination. I tried copying the default.aspx
page directly using copy operation but that too is not working. There is no error thrown but the page is not coming up in the pages library of destination site.
As a workaround, i copied the page using SharePoint designer but i am looking for a solution to this issue.
Thanks in advance
Ajit

Hi Ajit,
According to your description, my understanding is that you could not copy default.aspx page using Manage Content and Structure.
I did a test about this issue, and found the followings:
1.When I checked out the publishing page, then copied the site to other location at the same site sollection with Manage Content and Structure, the page was not copied.
2.When I checked in the page without publishing, and copied the page as the step1, the page also was not copied.
3.I published the page, then copied it, the page could be copied.
So , for resolving your issue, please check the default.aspx page, make sure that the page is published.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy

MOSS 2007 Content DB used in transnational replication

Any help guys.....

Hello,
To my knowledge only database mirroring and log shipping was supported with MOSS 2007. Log shipping is specially recommended for content
databases.
The following post talks about the benefits of using database mirroring vs log shipping:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mikewat/archive/2007/07/28/database-mirroring-and-log-shipping-which-is-better.aspx
To know more about these two high availability methods for MOSS 2007, please read the following article:

And was successfully able to configure Replication for all varying size DBS but problem is that Site is not coming up for 50GBs Database, SO would like to ask if There any size limitation from Transnational replication with MOSS 2007.

Attaching the 2007 content database to a 2010 farm is how you upgrade the database. When the database attaches SharePoint recognizes it needs to be upgraded and upgrades it immediately.
Since you need to attach the database to the 2010 farm, you cannot upgrade it before this -- i.e. you cannot upgrade it to 2010 within a 2007 farm, nor can you upgrade it if the database is attached to no farms.

Migrating from Moss 2007 to SharePoint 2013

I am reaching out here as we require some inputs around migrating the SharePoint based application from MOSS 2007 to 2013.Please find more details from below
Requirement:
Migrating SharePoint site collection (which contains just 1 Top level site and 2 libraries with in it and no item level/library level permissions exists) which is on MOSS 2007 with size of 500GB to SharePoint 2013, hence we like to know your inputs in related
to this
Note:
1) The site collection has its own separate content database
2) There are nearly 200 thousand documents where the document with higher version is 90
3) The documents are stored in the libraries with up to third level of folder structure
4) The site collection is created based on custom site definition (created using visual studio)
Few things that I like to mention/ask here
a) Having 500GB data in one single content database inj the MOSS 2007 environment does it impacts the site performance?
b) Migrating the site collection as is onto single content database (all 500 GB into one content database) into destination SharePoint 2013, does it will be a good practice? Hope SharePoint 2013 content database limit is 200 GB, hence moving 500GB
as is into one database will it be good practice?
c) Does database attach and detach works for the databases which are of size 500GB?
d) Can we do database attach and detach directly from MOSS 2007 to directly onto SharePoint 2013, without hopping onto SharePoint 2010 in between and then later to SharePoint 2013?
e) If moving 500GB data into one content database will not be a good approach, can we split it onto multiple databases?
f) If database attach and detach doesn’t help for databases which are of size 500GB, should we go for any tool based approach? If yes, which tool does best fit?

a) Having 500GB data in one single content database inj the MOSS 2007 environment does it impacts
the site performance?
Inder: Yes, it will impact site performance at large extended, recommended is 200 gb only. Check it IO of your disk to analyze performance issue
b) Migrating the site collection as is onto single content database (all 500 GB into one content
database) into destination SharePoint 2013, does it will be a good practice? Hope SharePoint 2013 content database limit is 200 GB, hence moving 500GB as is into one database will it be good practice?
Inder:
Content database size (all usage scenarios)
4 TB per content database
Supported
Content databases of up to 4 TB are supported when the following requirements are met:
Disk sub-system performance of 0.25 IOPs per GB. 2 IOPs per GB is recommended for optimal performance.
You must have developed plans for high availability, disaster recovery, future capacity, and performance testing.

c) Does database attach and detach works for the databases which are of size 500GB?
Inder: Yes it does work
d) Can we do database attach and detach directly from MOSS 2007 to directly onto SharePoint 2013, without
hopping onto SharePoint 2010 in between and then later to SharePoint 2013?
Inder: No, you need to pass through 2010 and then 2013
e) If moving 500GB data into one content database will not be a good approach, can we split it onto
multiple databases?
Inder: you can go with 500 gb
f) If database attach and detach doesn’t help for databases which are of size 500GB, should we go for
any tool based approach? If yes, which tool does best fit
Inder: Below are few tools you can try

Losing out custom metadata info of few documents of a document librarby when migrated from MOSS 2007 to Sharepoint 2010

We have recently migrated from moss2007 to sharepoint 2010.We have a document library containing large no. of documents in it & for those documents there are some custom metadata columns apart from OOB library columns . We have user content DB attach
migration and after that we can see blank value under the custom columns for some records. However interesting point is we can see this metadata is showing for few documents.
Please suggest.

Hi,
What is your Office edition? When we create a managed metadata column in a Document Library, it will prompt that ‘Earlier versions of client programs might not support this type of column’. You should use Office 2010 to edit and create a document then save
to document library .
For detailed information ,please refer to this article:

Can you change the permissions on a single html file in the root of a MOSS 2007 site?

I know what the right answer is, the correct way to implement this is to create a library off the root and place the file that needs to have unique permissions into this library and either change the permissions of the library or of the individual file itself.
Anyways, that's what we're going to do...
However, I'm curious... Is there a way to change the permissions of a file that was manually placed in the root of a MOSS 2007 site? I've tried through the GUI and through Designer, and also searched the WWW with no luck. Is this even doable?
We don't want to change the permissions on the entire site, just that one file.
Thanks,
-Richard.

Hi Richard,
I thinks the file on the root directory of a SharePoint site is unable to be set with a unique permission, SharePoint securable object are web, list/library, list/library iteml, as what you're going to do, the workaround is
to put the file in a libary and grant the unique permission.

Cannot move file with Content & Structure feature

Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding the Content & Structure feature of SharePoint 2013.
I have people with "Design" permission level and I realized they don't have access to the action "Move" in the content
manager.
How come the button "Move" is disabled? What permissions are required to use this action?
Thanks in advance for your help

Hi,
Please understand it is by design that the issue occurs when using the site content and structure to move items within the sites or to new location. You should have higher level permission.
This is because the site content and structure uses the Content Migration (known as PRIME) export/import methods to move content. The PRIME API requires site collection admin privileges to be utilized which is why even site owner cannot move content.
I found some related articles for your reference:
