Opening XLSX documents in document library failing

Hi All,
I have just noticed a strange behavior within our SharePoint Document Library. The excel documents that end with .xls format open up fine in the native excel application, files ending with .xlsx however attempt to open within the browser and throws this
error and a strange looking page with green heading " when you click ok then nothing happens. Have you come across this at all?
Unable to process the request.
Wait a few minutes and try performing this operation again.

Can you monitor the ULS log with ulsviewer.exe when you are attempting to open the file and see if there are any errors?

Failed to open XML document. Failed to retrieve Public ID

I have a client posting to Weblogic 6.1 server with the help of Apache
SOAP 2.2. The posting works fine if the contents of the SOAP message
is small. But when the contents of SOAP reached more than 11KB, the
following error occurs:
Error: Failed to open XML document. Failed to retrieve PUBLIC id or
SYSTEM id from the document. Decrease the number of char between the
beginning of the document and its root element.
The SOAP document looks like:
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<mn:sMethodName xmlns:mn="sMethodURI">
<batch appid="1">
<employee>
<name>...</name>
<address>...</address>
</employee>
<employee>
<name>...</name>
<address>...</address>
</employee>
</batch>
</mn:sMethodName>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
The Max Post Size in Weblogic is set to (-1).
The program is able to handle less than 50 items of
<employee>.....</employee>. The error occurs when more than 50 items
are used. The problem is that our application should be able to handle
more than 1000 items of <employee>....</employee>.
My questions are:
1. How should I configure weblogic to solve the problem?
2. How should I configure the deployment of Apache SOAP to solve the
problem?
Pls advise. Thanks.

One can deduce from the error message that the parser is looking for the
<?XML...?> portion of the document because that is where the SYSTEM and
PUBLIC ids are found in the document.

Sorry, but I didn't get what you mean. I thought that was handled by theApache
SOAP API already? And if it couldn't see the XML document header, then whydoes
this only happens when the document size is large? It doesn't haveproblems whenever
the document size is small.

File Open Issues - document library pdf file to open in new browser window

Hi
I have a requirement to open the document library containing pdf file to open in new browser window. So far I have tried following steps but could not get it to work.
1. Changing Document library advance setting to open the document in browser (have tried others as well).
2. SharePoint web application setting changed as Permissive instead of Strict. Here the pdf file opens in browser but redirect from document library instead of new window(Also tried adding Target=”_blank” and no change).
3. Executed the powershell script to adding MIME type to see if it works but no change.
$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication http://SharePointSite
If ($webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes -notcontains "application/pdf")
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Adding PDF MIME Type..."
$webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes.Add("application/pdf")
$webApp.Update()
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Added and saved."
Else
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "PDF MIME type is already added."
4. Open the Doc library and modified ALLItems.aspx to add Target= “_blank”
5. I have already tried solutions suggested in the link:

Appreciate if there are any working solution from any of you. Many Thanks

I found a solution which works only in the development. No idea when I compared, Browser MIME type is enabled, STRICT browser type is configured for web application. on the document library advance setting, default to open in new browser. Both configurations
are identical but I am able to open pdf file in new window in my developing using jquery script

Not able to copying files/folders from one Document Library to another Document Library using Open with Browser functionality

Hi All,
We have SharePoint Production server 2013 where users are complaining that they are not able to copy or move files from one document library to another document library using “Open with Explorer” functionality.
We tried to activate publishing features on production server but it did not work. We users reported following errors:
Copying files from one document library to another document library:
Tried to map the document libraries and still not get the error to copy files:
In our UAT environment we are able to copy and move folders from using “Open with Explorer” though.
We have tried to simulate in the UAT environment but could not reproduce the production environment.
Any pointers about this issue would be highly appertained.
Thanks in advance

Hi John and all,
One the newly created web applications that we created few days back and navigated to document library, clicked on “Open with Explorer”, we get this error.
We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this website to your trusted and try again.
We added to the trusted site in Internet Explorer for this web application, cleared the cache and open the site with same document library but still get the same above error.
However, another existing web application (In same the Farm) that we are troubleshooting at the moment, we are able click on “Open with Explorer”, login in credentials opens and we entered the details we are able to open the document
library and tried to follow these steps:
From Windows Explorer (using with Open with Explorer), tried to copy or move a files to
source document library.
From Windows Explorer moved this file to another destination document library and we got this error.
What we have to achieve is users should be able to copy files and folders using
Open with Explorer functionality. We don’t know why Open with Explorer
functionality not work working for our environment.
Are we doing something wrong?
We have referred to following websites.
we hope concepts of copying / Moving files are similar as SharePoint 2010. Our production environment is SharePoint 2013.

Opening Document Library PDF in a New Window (Sharepoint 2013)

Hello,
I have numerous PDF's in a document library. When the PDF opens in the browser, the PDF's contain links to various other sites; however, when the user clicks the link on the PDF from the document library, the link opens in the same window as the PDF. I would
like the link to open the PDF in a new browser window.
I have searched Google but cannot find anything for SharePoint 2013. We are hosting our SharePoint on the Office 365 package. I found one solution that is repeated on many forums, but I do not see the "Convert to XSLT data view" anywhere
in SharePoint designer 2013. The solution states:
"Edit the document library in SharePoint Designer.
1. Open the site in SharePoint Designer and then open the document library allitems.aspx.
2. Right-click the document library web part and select “Convert to XSLT data view”.
3. Locate the name column, you will see this tag “<A onfocus="OnLink(this)" HREF="{@FileRef}"….. ”, add “target=”_blank”” in tag.
4. After this, the documents will be opened in a new window."
I do see my allitems.aspx and can open that with a text editor. The contents of that file are:

Unable to open html file in document library without saving first

I've uploaded a bunch of HTML files from a DVD to a document library on our Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise server. When I try to open one of the html files it wants to save the file instead of opening it. If I choose to open the document library in Explorer
I'm able to open the html files w/o issue.
What's causing this? I know there is an option to set the file handing to permissive, but I'd rather not do that.

Carl,

Opening Document Library Files in New Tab

Hi,
Is there any setting to enable so that all the files saved in the document library (PDF, WORD etc) gets opened in a new tab.
Now its opening in the same tab. I need all other links to open in the same tab, only documents to a different tab.
I am using SharePoint 2010 Enterprise.
Any Help?
Thanks.

A little JavaScript employing jQuery does the job just perfectly.
$(document).ready(
function ()
// has to be on an interval for grouped doc libraries
// where the actual links are loaded only once a group
// is expanded
setInterval(
function ()
$("a[onclick*='return DispEx'][target!='_blank']")
.attr("target", "_blank")
.removeAttr("onclick");
// document type icons
$("td.ms-vb-icon>img[onclick]:not([documentUrl])")
.click(function (e)
window.open($(this).attr("documentUrl"), "_blank");
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();
return false;
.each(function ()
$(this).attr(
"documentUrl",
$.trim(String($(this).attr("onclick"))
.split("=")[1]
.replace(/["'{}]/g, "")
.split(";")[0])
this.onclick = null;
500

In a document library : group by view and manage metadata filter & Navigation problem

Hi all, I encounter a problem when configuring a document library using a group by view and in combination with the Managed Metadata filtering and
navigation :
- all the documents appear under my group by, even the ones that does not correspond
- In the other hand, the number in brackets shows the correct number of documents that should be shown
See screenshot below.
Did you already encounter that issue ? Is there a workaround ?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use a group by view and combine with the Managed Metadata filtering and navigation in a document library
to show the corresponding documents with the correct numbers in SharePoint 2013.
In my SharePoint 2013, I created a view which was group by two columns and combine with the Metadata Navigation Hierarchies and Key Filters some fields in a document
library. As a result, it showed only items matching the filter values.
So, I recommend that you can follow the steps to implement it in your environment.
Step1: Enable Metadata Navigation and Filtering:
Metadata Navigation and Filtering is a Site Feature that has to be activated for this to work.
And, the Metadata Navigation and Filtering feature is enabled by default on most sites.
If it is not enabled for your site, you can enable it on the Site Features pages for your site.
You must be a Site Owner or a Site Collection Administrator to enable Metadata Navigation and Filtering.
1. Go to “Site Settings” and click “Manage site features” under Site Actions.
2. Find “Metadata Navigation and Filtering” in the Features list and click “Activate”.
Step2:
Configure Metadata Navigation:
You must have a least the Manage Lists permission level to configure metadata navigation for a list or library.
1. Open the document library for which you want to configure metadata navigation.
2. Go to “Library Settings” of the document library and click “Metadata navigation settings” under “General Settings”.
3. In the Configure Navigation Hierarchies section, select the field or fields you want to display in the navigation hierarchy and then click “Add”.
4. By default, Folders are automatically displayed in the navigation hierarchy. If you do not want folders to display, select Folders, and then click Remove.
5. In the Configure Key Filters section, select the fields you want to add as Key Filters, and then click “Add”.
6. In the Configure automatic column indexing for this list, specify whether you want to automatically create indices on this list to increase the performance of the
queries that users will perform when they use the Navigation Hierarchy and Key Filter columns you've specified. It is recommended that you select the option “Automatically manage column indices on this list”.
7. Click “OK”.
Step3: Set a group by two columns by modifying view in the document library:
1. Go to the “LIBRARY” ribbon of the document library and click the “Modify view”.
2. Click the “Group By” and select up to two columns to determine what type of group and subgroup the items in the view will be displayed in.
3. Click “OK”.
Step4:
Go back to the document library, apply Navigation Hierarchies and Key Filters to do a test in your environment.
The result will like as below:
There is an article about how to apply Metadata Navigation Filtering in SharePoint 2013 for your reference.

Problem to open Office documents from Sharepoint

Hello All,
We have published SharePoint 2013 (NTLM authentication) via TMG 2010. However, we are having the following issue:
When users try to open (https connection) any Office Documents to Office 2013 they get prompted for credentials, then after they provide credentials they get "Sorry, we couldn't open <URL of the document>". The prompt for credentials is ok because
persistent cookies are not option for us. We don’t have Office Web Apps in use and we want to open documents to client application. Our company users machines are Windows 7, Office 2013 and Internet Explorer 10/11.
I made some tests and everything work fine with:
Windows 7, Office 2010 and Internet Explorer 10/11
Windows 7, Office 2013 and Internet Explorer 8
Almost fine:
Windows 7, Office 2013 and Firefox (latest). With Firefox it works if I open any Office document from summary link list but not if I try to open from inside document library. If I open from document library (right click) to new tab or to new window it works
fine.
Any ideas what’s going on? It must be something with IE 10/11 and Office 2013. I also tried with TMG persistent cookie and then I can open Office documents with IE 10/11.
I also checked with fiddler what happens and I can see that everything stops to 401 error.
Thank you,

Hello Miikkal,
You need to enable SharePoint class in IE. Please follow this
blog and follow this
article.
Once, this is done you can Enable all the IE settings to load for Intranet and Trusted zone settings
Put your site in compatibility mode and trusted zone
Also, make sure that 2 versions of Office suite is not installed on the system. Eg. Lync 2013 and Office 2010 on one single machine
What happen when you by pass your TMG server. To do this we need to make host entry for URL directed to APP server IP Address.
Thank You, Pallav S. Srivastav ----- If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered.

Open a document in a new tab or browser window Sharepoint 2013

Customer requirement states that a doc must be opened in the browser, but requires that it open in a new window or tab. I know that this is bad practice, but customer is the customer. Please provide the best course of action. 95% of docs

Cannot edit, now cannot open a document in Pages 5.2

I have Pages version 5.2, running on Mavericks. I have been working on a second edition of my book. (First edition was done using an earlier version of Pages, either '09 or the next one thereafter in 2011.) Pages has been regularly updated on an ongoing basis. I have been successfully editing the document on and off for the past several months, until this morning. I got to the last page of the document, and it was oddly locked, as in I could not put my cursor anywhere to edit the content found there. After several attempts, decided to close the document and try to reopen it again. Except that pages wouldn't open if I tried to open the document, kept failing before it even started. The document seems corrupted as even preview won't open it.
If I try to open Pages now it says "the last time you had Pages with windows open, do you want to re-open those windows". If I say yes, it crashes instantly. If I say no, Pages can open. However, and this is the BIG problem, I cannot open my book document, we are talking about a 70,000 page book, with thousands of words of new edits. I have an external backup but not of the changes I have done in the last week.
Any help anyone can offer to recover the document will be extremely appreciated as this is nothing short of a "catastrophe" for me right now.

There was no Pages 2011, there were successive updates to Pages '09 the latest being to v4.3.
I hope this scare has been a warning to you.
If you have the latest Pages 5.2 installed, unopenable files will remain so and the content can not be accessed by any other software due to the obscure file package Apple has used.
You could have by passed the crash by holding down the shift key so that Pages didn't automatically reopen the damaged file.
You are lucky you have a healthy copy on iCloud. Because iCloud synchs files, it could so easily have synched a bad copy. I strongly advise you to create your own backups, personally I don't trust Time Machine, on separate drives. Also use a more reliable and secure software than Pages. One that lets you access the content of files should they go pear shaped, e.g. LibreOffice (free).

SharePoint 2010: Ribbon on document library does not load

Hello,
I have a user where on some sites that he uses the document library fails to load. We are on SharePoint 2010, Enterprise Edition. The problem is just on his Windows 7 PC, and no others have reported the problem. He is using IE 10.
Can you give me some possible things to try to fix the issue?
Thanks

Will you also please describe how it fails to load? Do you get an HTTP error/"This page cannot be displayed"? Does it not show up, the "unexpected error" error?

Windows Explorer option not working for a Document library

Dear All,
I am SharePoint administrator for one of the SharePoint site ,When I try to open the document library in local drive using via "Windows Explorer"option I am facing below error.
Can any one help me how can I over come from this issue
Thanks,
Sidd

1. Check if you have sufficient permission on the document library and its documents.
2. If permission is all correct, then the problem looks like in your file name. Check your File Name, Length, and Invalid Character Restrictions and Recommendations.
