Project Online - Lite Users Are Unable to See projects in their view

Hi Everyone - I have recently added several new projects and added some new users. I have added these new users, assigned the lite license to each of them, and shared the PWA site with them. However, when they sign in, they do not see any new projects. The
Project Center has no projects listed, just empty lines. I have verified they are resources on some and owners on others to see if that made a difference, but that does not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Peter,
This means that you are using the SharePoint permission mode which is indeed the default permission mode with Project Online. Thus you have to share each project and site manually with the users.
See this blog:
http://www.prasannaadavi.com/2013/08/exploring-sharepoint-permissions-mode.html
That being said, I'll suggest to have a look at the
permission modes. The SP permission mode requires a lot of manual operation to give access to every single user on their projects. The PS permission mode is much more granular and requires less operations once
configured.
Hope this helps,

  • Users are unable to see their own profile photo although everyone else can see it in Lync 2013 client

    We have Lync 2013, Exchange 2010 and several AD
    servers in mixed mode 2003/2008.
    All user are unable to see their own profile photo
    either in the main Lync window, in the settings or in a chat although other user can see that their photo is there and displaying. The user experiencing the issue can go open Outlook 2013 client and will see their photo displaying correctly in the file menu
    (and elsewhere) here.
    I have confirmed this happens with any new users I set up as well. We have gone through a fair amount of troubleshooting with other Lync photo issues and simple fixes such as deleting the SIP cache folder etc proves to be ineffective.
    Our Cs-ClientPolicy Global is set to websearchonly.
     We have "Replicate this attribute to the Global Catalog" set
    for the ThumbnailPhoto attribute in AD.
    We are also forcing photos from AD only (or no photo) by setting the following:
    "Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity PhotosControl -DisplayPhoto
    PhotosFromADOnly"  
    and finally we are importing the photo in ad using this PS command:
    "Import-RecipientDataProperty -Identity "Test User"
    -Picture -FileData ([Byte[]]$(Get-Content -Path "C:\pictures\testuser.jpg" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0))"
    The pictures being uploaded are under 10KB in size.
    I have followed many threads and will provide any information I can to help find the problem. Thank you in advance.
    EDIT: I have also tried the following but with no success: https://knowledge.zomers.eu/misc/Pages/How-to-fix-your-photo-not-showing-up-in-the-Lync-client.aspx

    Hi Jdentremont,
    Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
    the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
    deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
    To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
    1.  Navigate to
     “X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
    You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
    2. Delete all the files in this folder.
    3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
    %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
    4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
    5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

    Hello,
    We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
    you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
    They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
    I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
    I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
    file.
    I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
    Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

    Hello Bria,
    What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
    Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
    There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items: 
    User
    Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
    Hide these specified drives in My Computer
    Prevent access to specified drives in My
    Computer
    There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
    I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

  • Users and Group Owners are unable to see their groups

    Hello all,
         I have an issue where security group owners are unable see/read any groups that they own. I have enabled the following  MPR's but still nothing please help.
    Group management: Group administrators can create and delete group resources
    Group management: Group administrators can read attributes of group resources
    Group management: Group administrators can update group resources
    Security group management: Owners can read selected attributes of group resources
    Security group management: Owners can update and delete groups they own
    Security group management: Users can read selected attributes of group resources
    Also when a user logs into the portal they are unable to see any Security groups listed under MY SG Membership. However when we check the group membership they are indeed part of the group both in FIM portal
    and AD.

    Reason might be that user's don't have access to group objects at all or are not able to read some of attributes of a group. Also make sure that BasicUI keyword was added to the specific elements of UI used in group management - this includes navbars but
    also search scopes which are used for group filtering. 
    On the MPRs side:
    Make sure that your Security group users set was not modified - maybe people are filtered out from these MPRs.
    Use explore function in MPR  part of a portal to check what actual MPRs are being triggered when user tries to access group object. 
    Tomek Onyszko, memberOf Predica FIM Team (http://www.predica.pl), IdAM knowledge provider @ http://blog.predica.pl
    Hi Tomek,
    Which attributes must a user be able to read in order for this to work? If possible can you provide me with a full list so I can verify that they do have rights to read them.
    I have added the keywork BasicUI to the following sections 
    Under Home Page Resource
    Join a SG
    Manage my SGs
    Search Scopes
    Security Groups (SGs)
    See my SG memberships
    Under Navigation Bar Resource
    My SG Memberships
    My SGs
    Security Groups (SGs)
    As for the security group users set, I have modified it to allow all domain users to be part of this set. When I click View Members all users are listed. 
    "Use explore function in MPR  part of a portal to check what actual MPRs are being triggered when user tries to access group object. "  How would somebody go about doing this?

  • PC Users are unable to check Outlook while my (mac) Mail is open

    Ever since I upgraded to 10.4, whenever I have my Mail application open, the PC users are unable to check their IMAP mail through Outlook. The PC Users and myself are all using different accounts, but are checking the same server.
    At first, this seemed like it was a coincidence... but then I shut my powerbook and they could check their again. I have to use a web mail client to check my email when I am on the network at work.
    Any ideas to resolve this issue? Mail is set to check every 5 minutes.

    AA8 and AA9 allow Reader Rights so the user can save the form. This is restricted by the license to 500 uses. In the long run, the only advantage of the Reader Rights is for your users, not for you. You can always import the data into the form and have the same result as they had in the form. It is not necessary to transmit the full form to you, only the data. If you were developing a web form that would likely exceed the 500 uses, you would have to negotiate a price with Adobe for Reader Rights (thousands of $$ should be expected).
    If saving is important in a company environment, not online, then you may want to read the EULA carefully as to the exceptions. You will still have to have at least AA8.
    I guess the printing problem was answered.

  • Everyone Except External users are unable to access the subsites

    We have a SharePoint online site, in which we have given read permissions to
    Everyone Except External Users in the parent site. Now, the users are able to access the parent site. But for sub sites, we have stopped inheriting permissions from the parent site and have given read permissions to Everyone Except External Users in
    sub sites as well. But users are unable to access the sub sites. They are getting access denied message.
    Can any one help me to resolve the problem?
    Thanks in advance!
    Anjani.

    Hi,
    Please check below links. They encountered similar issues and they had some assets (Page Layout or master page) checked out by users in sub site due to which users with read permission could not access.

  • Few users are unable to sign in after we added 2 more front end servers in existing pool?

    Hello, 
    We have recently extended the Lync 2010 Enterprise pool with 2 Front end servers.  Now we have totally 6 Front end servers. 
    After this change some users are unable to login. Error message: "Cannot loggin as server is temporarily unavailable"
    Captured, client logs and received the following:
    ms-diagnostics: 4004;reason="Credentials provided are not authorized to act as specified from URI";
    We have the following security settings on the newly added front end servers:
    Network security: Minimumsecurity for NTLM SSP Based clients - set to - Require 128-bit encryption 
    In other existing front end servers, it has been set to - No minimum. 
    Questions:
    1. Is that the issue for signin failure?
    2. Do we need to change this option to - No minimum in new servers and reboot it?
    Please advise. MUCH THANKS. 

    Hello 
    Those clients running in Windows 7 OS. And the error is different:
    "Cannot loggin as server is temporarily unavailable"

  • Unable to see SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in 7.4 portal

    Hello Experts,
    We are looking to integrate dashboards created with BOBJ design studio into enterprise portal (NW 7.4). We have followed the steps mentioned in the blog Integration of BOBJ with SAP Portal.
    Namely:
    1. Taken the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par and com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.templates.epa files from the BI server
    2. Imported the EPA file into the portal
    3. Converted the com.sap.businessobjects.iviews.par file into EAR file and deployed it into the portal
    4. Created System alias for the BI system
    5. Configured SSO between portal and the BI server
    After doing these steps when trying to create the Business Objects iView we are unable to see the SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer template in the portal. Can anyone let me know if we have missed some additional configuration that has to be done?
    Regards,
    Saurabh

    Hi Experts,
    Issue has been resolved. After importing the EPA file into the portal, we missed out restarting the portal. Once this was done I am now able to find the SAP BusinessObjects Document List and SAP BusinessObjects Document Viewer templates in the iView creation wizard.

  • Project Server 2013 - User cannot create or see his timesheet

    Hi everyone,
    One of my project server user has a little problem with his timesheet.
    When he try to create a timesheet, he has an error message :
    "Sorry ... We can not create the timesheet, because we have encounter a problem with Project Web App or with the data validations,
    especially resources who are users or work resources invalid. Please check
    your environment and try again."
    Or with timesheet which was create before encounter this error, he has this message :
    "Failed while loading the view. Press OK to reload this view with default parameters. Press Cancel to sélect an other view."
    I'd try to check every project where he is as a resource but I didn't found something wrong.
    Maybe it's because one of the custom field is required but other user have no problem to create and view their own timesheet.
    If you have any idea to help me.
    Thanks,

  • Project Online External User Access

    Hello,
    I'm testing the Project Online Preview and I would like to share the deliverables list on a project site with an external user (a client for example); so I configured the site collection with Project Web App to the "Allow
    external users who accept sharing invitations and sign in as authenticated users" option. Then I tried to share the list with an external e-mail with a Microsoft account, but the invitation email was not sent.
    External Sharing on SharePoint admin Center is configured on "Allow both external users who accept sharing invitations and anonymous guest links"
    and my PWA site works in S"harePoint Permission Mode".
    The same procedure on a classic SharePoint site collection work perfectly.
    Any suggestions, please?

    Hello,
    I got some of the external users to work.  I am still trying to sort it out, but thought I will give you what I found.
    The external user that I got work was another user in another domain, but the account was separate domain in a Office365.  I have not been successful so far with an external account, that was not part of the Office
    365.
    Here is what I did to get it to work.
    1) Login into an Office 365 account.  Let's call it OFFICE999.
    2) Then paste the link from my PWA site into browser.
    3) Access was denied, but page provide me a link to Request Access
    4) Then jump to my Office 365 account with PWA. Went to the PWA site and click on Settings icon and then site settings.
    5) click on "Access request and Invitation"
    6) under the Pending request, approved user and put the user as "Project Web APp Visitor"
    7) Jump back to the Office999 and read my email, click on the link.
    8) I got access denied again
    9) When back to Office 365 PWA Admin account and added user to PWA users
    10) went back to Office999 account, refreshed the screen and get access to PWA site,
    11) BUT it says account doesn't have a LICENSE.  So I am at that point trying to find out how to give an external user a license.
