Publish multiple files - WIndows Media Server 2008 R2

Hi all - apologies am new to Windows Media Server and just installed a test one on a 2008 R2 Server. I can easily publish a single file but the Project I am working on will need to make 200+ files available to users. I know I can publish a
directory where I place the files but is there an easy way once the directory is published for users to select the file they want. Each time I've done it, I seem to just get a playlist of all the files.
On my test client I am using windows media player 11.0
Many thanks

Hello,Sometimes on my main file server if user1 on \\workstation1 creates a directory on \\server\share... User2 on \\workstation2 sometimes can not see the directory for 20 minutes.This only happens on Windows 7 machines. I still have a few Windows XP machines (don't ask) and this is not a problem on XP.Also if I log into the server I can see the data.So to recap say my boss adds a spreadsheet to a share and sends me an email to open the spreadsheet. When I browse to the share from Windows 7 the spreadsheet is not there, but will show up 20 minutes later. But I could go to another Windows 7 machine and the spreadsheet could be there. Also this happens with renaming directories.It happens randomly and not all the time.The file server

Publishing point is not starting in the windows media server

In the setup VCS expressway starter pack is used as call controller & the endpoints are registered to it. TCS is used for recording. A existing publishing point is used for live streaming using windows media server. This publishing point is not started when the recording starts for this recording alias. Windows media server is running locally in the TCS. I could see the below in the server logs. Please note that this setup has worked with this configuration for more than a year and it stopped working now. Your help on this greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Auditing failed access to files and folders in Windows Storage Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I've been trying to figure out why I cannot audit the failed access to files and folders on my server. I'm trying to replace a unix-based NAS with a Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 solution so I can use my current audit tools (the 'nix NAS
has basically none). I'm looking for a solution for a small remote office with 5-10 users and am looking at Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 (no props yet, but on a Buffalo appliance). I specifically need to audit the failure of a user to access
folders and files they are not supposed to view, but on this appliance it never shows. I have:
Enabled audit Object access for File system, File share and Detailed file share
Set the security of the top-level share to everyone full control
Used NTFS file permissions to set who can/cannot see particular folders
On those folders (and letting those permissions flow down) I've set the auditing tab to "Fail - Everyone - Full Control - This folder, subfolders and files"
On the audit log I only see "Audit Success" messages for items like "A network share object was checked to see whether client can be granted desired access (Event 5145) - but never a failure audit (because this user was not allowed access by NTFS permissions).
I've done this successfully with Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 w/SP1 and am wondering if anybody has tried this with the Windows Storage Server version (with success of course). My customer wants an inexpensive "appliance" and I thought this new
variant of 2008 was the ticket, but I can't if it won't provide this audit.
Any thoughts? Any of you have luck with this? I am (due to the fact I bought this appliance out of my own pocket) using the WSS "Workgroup" flavor and am wondering if this feature has been stripped from the workgroup edition of WSS.
TIA,
--Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
The steps to setup Audit on a WSS system should be the same as a standard version of Windows Server. So please redo the steps listed below to see if issue still exists:
Enabling file auditing is a 2-step process.
[1] Configure "audit object access" in AD Group Policy or on the server's local GPO. This setting is located under Computer Configuration-->Windows Settings-->Security Settings-->Local Policies-->Audit Policies. Enable success/failure auditing
for "Audit object access."
[2] Configure an audit entry on the specific folder(s) that you wish to audit. Right-click on the folder-->Properties-->Advanced. From the Auditing tab, click Add, then enter the users/groups whom you wish to audit and what actions you wish to audit
- auditing Full Control will create an audit entry every time anyone opens/changes/closes/deletes a file, or you can just audit for Delete operations.

File search on Server 2008 using Windows 7 workstation

Trying to get Windows 7 clients to search a network file share using the search index on the file server, but doesnt seem to be working.
My setup is: Windows Storage Server Standard 2008 (not R2), Windows 7 Standard workstation with mapped network drive pointing to file share on Storage Server. File Server role is installed on server as well as Windows Search Service, but when I run a test
search on the server, I get entirely different results from running a test search on the Windows 7 client.
I've heard of setting the file share to enable "Offline Mode" on the client workstation to allow the workstation to index the share, but I cant have every workstation downloading and indexing a copy of our file share (hundreds of gigabytes). I
tried adding the mapped network drive to the Windows 7 Document Library, but I get the error message saying that the location cant be added because it's not indexed. Suggestions?
Shaun

Hi Shaun,
First please check if Windows Search 4.0 could be installed on your server - it is for Windows Server 2008 so it may not able to be installed on a Windows Storage Server 2008.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940157/en-us
For remote indexing please see the Remote Query part of the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772446(v=ws.10).aspx
Remote Query
Windows Search 4.0 extends the ability to search across remote desktops. Previously, only Windows Vista users could query recognizable indexes on remote Vista computers; now, WS4 enables users to query remote computers running any supported operating system.
Remote querying includes the following features:
Queries work across all supported OSes (Windows XP, Server 2003, Home Server, and Vista).
All shared NTFS folders are automatically indexed (excludes all FAT file systems).
All shared, and therefore indexed, locations can be remotely queried.
The location on the remote computer must be shared and it must be indexed. With Group Policy, administrators can control whether shared locations are automatically indexed.

Windows Storage Server 2008 - unzip with drag & drop from Windows 7 client fails

Hello.
As i asked this question in German and got no answer so i try it in English now.
I have the following problem:
We have a Windows SBS 2008, where we store our files. If somebody opens a ZIP-file on a network share from a Windows 7 Client (64 Bit) it is possible to drag & drop the content (multiple files) to a directory. So far everything works as expected.
We now have an additional Windows Storage Server 2008 integrated in our domain (Buffalo Tera Station WS-QV8/R5), where we also store files. If somebody opens the same ZIP-file on a network share of this server from a Windows 7 Client and tries to drag &
drop the content the following happens:
1. only one file is extracted and to display the file a refresh of the explorer view is needed.
2. when the drag & drop action is repeated a second file is extracted
Not alle files are extracted and there is no error message or indication why this happens.
The behaviour is reproducible from another Windows 7 Client (32 Bit).
If we try to drag & drop the files from the ZIP-file on the Windows Storage Server network sahre to a directory on the SBS network share all files are extracted correctly.
On the Windows Storage Server itself all files are extracted without problmems. Therefore it must be a problem with the combination of Windows Storage Server und Windows 7 Client accessing the files via network shares.
Are there any ideas where this problem could be located? Has anybody the same phenomenon and maybe a solution for it?
Thanks in advance

How to install KB2950358 on Windows STORAGE Server 2008 R2?

Hello
I am experiencing the exact issue described
here on my WD Sentinel DX4000 nas box which runs Windows Storage Server 2008 R2. This is causing regular crashes and reboots and general unreliability when the memory leak causes all ram to be used up and the CPU is constantly running at 100% which both
increases electricity usage and shortens the lifespan of the system.
I have downloaded the hotfix on that KB article but it refuses to install claiming that it is not compatible. When the underlying Windows Server 2008 R2 OS is the same how can it not be compatible? My theory is that the Storage server version is only used
and available on a small handful of OEM devices and there's barely any information of it on the internet so I think Microsoft have forgotten to add it to the compatibility list for this particular hotfix.
After weeks of searching, I cannot find a way to force install the update. It's not a business-critical system and I've got backups of it so I am happy to try manual or risky efforts to get it installed. I have tried extracting the MSU file but that doesn't
give me any useful files to install it manually or skip the compatibility checks.
I've also tried to contact Microsoft directly but they don't even have Storage Server listed as an option on their support contact page so I've given up there, as a last resort I am hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. Other online forums
refuse to help saying it's too risky with a server but personally I want it installed and will try anything to do so because I've got a £1000 NAS sitting here that is unusable due to this issue. I'd rather not reinstall the OS as the problem reoccurs - I've
tried it already before I found this KB article.
Bottom line, Microsoft have identified the issue and released a hotfix, the server version IS supported, but was not added to the compatibility restrictions of the update so I cannot get the update installed.
Any advice gladly received. Hopefully someone from MS will see this and be able to update the compatibility of the hotfix if nothing else is possible.

I see SP1 is a prerequisite. Also the manufacturer may have specific patch procedures or recommendations so I'd probably contact them directly.

Cannot Install PB Runtime 12.0 or 12.5 on Windows 8 Server 2008 R2

Greetings All!!
I am trying to set up a new server for deployment and when I run either the PB Runtime for 12.0 or 12.5 I get an error stating (in general) module pbjvm120.dll failed to register.
I am also having this problem with another Windows 2008 Server install. I had to move on with the last one, but I need this one up and running now so I am asking for advice/help.
I attached a screenshot of the error.
Thanks all!!
Best,
Paul

Thanks Gentlmen!!
I don't know how the '8' in Windows 8 Server 2008 R2 got in there, but it is just Windows Server 2008 R2.
I copied msvcr71.dll , msvcp71.dll and atl71.dll to the c:\windows\system32 directory. Tried again and got the same error as shown in my screenshot. This 'is' a VM. I am logged into the machine as Administrator.
Chris, what do you mean by official MR?
I am creating the runtime files using the PB Runtime Packager.
Thank you!!

Is it safe to delete CiFiles folder on Windows storage Server 2008

Hi Team,
.ci file growing in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows\Projects\SystemIndex\Indexer\CiFiles" location. Is it safe to delete the CI file. please let me know, any other way to disable
the growth of CI files.
What is the route cause? This is file server using windows storage server 2008 OS.
How to avoid in future this type of issue?
My total hard disk size 80 GB but now free space only 110 Almost full my hard disk. So please help to advise how to clear
all ci files?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
When you use indexing service, the service create .ci files. The files are content index files on the server. As long as the service is not running you should not encounter any problems if you delete the folder.

Active directory recycle bin in Windows STORAGE server 2008 R2

I'd like to find a tool that helps me to monitor deleted server files. I understand that this tool is called Active directory recycle bin. I can't enable it. I can't even open lpd.exe. I'm using Windows storage server 2008 r2 essentials. Could someone
help me with that? Thanks in advance.

In that case you must use a solution which combines Auditing
and Backup solutions. Just to know who has deleted a file or folder does not really help you. You must be able to restore the deleted file or folders.
If you need to find out at what time who deletes what file you should use auditing. Normally organizations enable auditing on sensitive data and folders to keep track who touches the stuff. Auditing is enabled in windows and by the administrator. Take a
look at the below links if you want to enable auditing on files and folders:
Use auditing to track who deleted your files
However do not forget that you need to have backup solutions in order to restore a deleted file in case someone accidentally or intentionally deletes a file or folder. Using System Restore with Previous Version feature may comes handy if you are dealing
with small number of computers. Otherwise you need to prepare yourself for a backup plan using Data Protection Manager as Denis mentioned or Windows Backup role (WBadmin) including in Windows Server 2008. More info on links below. I have included a video of
how to recover lost data using previous versions for you.

Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 Client restore for UEFI Bios Error

My surface pro 3 has been backing up successfully to a Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 Essentials for months now. I now need to restore the Surface Pro 3 to backup created last week. However I cannot get the Surface Pro3 to boot from the
Recovery stick created by the Recovery Tools task. I also can't get the Surface to boot from an external dvd drive. The Surface seems to just ignore the External DVD drive. Maybe there is a problem with it. I will try it somewhere else.
However the error I get trying to boot from the USB is the following.
Window Boot Manger
File \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD
Status: 0xc000000d
Info: An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data.
How do I fix this issue and get the Surface Pro 3 to restore from backup?

Hi,
Please try to disable secure boot in BIOS and check Enable Legacy Option ROMs under Advanced Boot options to resolve the issue.

I thought this might apply to my server: KB2754784
But my event 55 alerts only happen when windows backup attempts to create a shadow copy on a drive volume created for backups.
We use to be able to backup the EFI, C, and D partitions in the past. After a hardware failure and Motherboard replacement and a system restore, we can no longer backup the volumes without the Windows Block Level Backup Engine Service service terminated
unexpectedly and Event 55 NTFS.
How can I fix this issue?

Hi,
The issue could be due to the shadow copies on the backup volumes are corrupt. You could try to delete these shadow copies to check if the issue still exist.

Windows Storage Server 2008 backup fail to UEFI based computers

Hai All
I have got Windows Storage Server 2008 running on a WD Sentinel DX4000. Recently my company bought a couple of new Dell laptops all running windows 8.1 64bit OS. Only three older laptops were left. Now for the fun part...I installed the connectors pointing
to the Sentinel on the laptops, and as expected the pc's show on the dashboard of the Storage Server, but all of the backups fail on the newer laptops. I installed the connectors on the older laptops as well and they go through no problem
The only difference between the older laptops and the new ones are the GPT partition drives and laptops running on UEFI, the older laptops, although running the same OS, do not have GPT and UEFI. I looked at the Event Viewer and found three errors to do
with the backup: Event 514 pointing to a ClientVSSProblem, Event 8194 pointing to Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error querrying for the VSSWriterCallback interface, hr=0x80070005,Access Denied and the last one is Event 513 CAPI2, Cryptographic
Service failed while processing onIdentity() call in the System Writerobject Details: AddLegacyDriverFiles: Unable to back up image of binary Microsoft Link-Layer Discovery Protocol. I did as most articles suggested but with no change. From changing registries
to taking ownership of the %windir% and adding the NT AUTHORITY, the NT Service and BUILTIN\Users. No change.
Help is much appreciated before i make a boat anchor out of the WD Sentinel.
Kind regards

Well looks like there is a change or two to be made on the client computer, granting some access to the NT Services and NT Authority. To automate this fix I wrote a batch file to be run on the client pc:
takeown /f %windir%\winsxs\temp\PendingRenames /a
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\temp\PendingRenames /grant "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM":(RX)
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\temp\PendingRenames /grant "NT Service\trustedinstaller":(F)
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\temp\PendingRenames /grant "BUILTIN\Users":(RX)
pause
takeown /f %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\* /a
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM":(RX)
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "NT Service\trustedinstaller":(F)
pause
icacls %windir%\winsxs\filemaps\*.* /grant "BUILTIN\Users":(RX)
net stop cryptsvc
pause
net start cryptsvc
pause
The backup now starts on the Sentinel
Kind Regards

Admin Commands issue on Windows Web Server 2008 R2 - 64Bit

Hi,
I have tried exactly same process on FMS3.5 Installed on Centos and it worked perfectly.
But not working in case of Windows Web Server 2008 R2 - 64Bit.
Here is what i am trying to do -
Basically i want to extract live streams list and display them in HTML as ordered list on another server them FMS.
What i did in the case of FMS on Centos server -
I installed Apache and PHP on this server and created a PHP file with following text in it. -
abc.php
   $xml = simplexml_load_file('http://<fms-server-ip>:1111/admin/getLiveStreams?auser=admin&apswd=password&appInst=live','Simple XMLElement', LIBXML_NOCDATA);
foreach($xml->children() as $child)
   foreach($child->children() as $child2)
          echo $child2 . ",";
and in hosting server where i want to display the list i entered following code in PHP file -
$homepage = file_get_contents('http://<fms-server-ip>/abc.php');
echo $homepage;
i got comma seperated values easily and everything is loading fast without any issue.
Now problem occured with Windows Web Server 2008 R2 - 64Bit.
I installed FMS, Apache and PHP in this server also, did evrything in the same way like in centos.
FMS, APache and PHP files are working fine in this.
But only problem occured when in abc.php i use
$xml = simplexml_load_file('http://<fms-server-ip>:1111/admin/getLiveStreams?auser=admin&apswd=password&appInst=live','Simple XMLElement', LIBXML_NOCDATA);
After this file do not loads and takes longer time to load and after some time a blank page appears. It works fine with a local XML file.
i am able to see the XML file by opening it directly in browser, but somehow this is not working with   simplexml_load_file. I dont think this is PHP issue because with local XML file it works fine. May be some port issue or something else. But i am able to view XML file directly in browser from another computers as well.
Kindly help, is there some other configurations should be changed in case of windows version. I have allowed admin commands as usual before doing all this. Ports 1111,80,1935 are also opened.
Please guide

Hi,
Yes in Browser, the response is perfect. The only issue is in Calling inside in any file, i even tried Javascript's XML dom to load it, but same result, the file is just loading and never loads completely. I also tried using an SWF file with AS3 code to load XML inside as3 and send the result to any JS function.
The output comes using trace in as3, but when it comes to browser, the same loading happends and result never loads.

Converting .OV to .ASF to play on a Windows Media Server

Hello everyone,
I am trying to create a good quality video file from Final Cut Pro that will stream on a Windows Media Server. I am being told by the tech guys at my work that it needs to stream as an .asf file because we use a Windows Media Server for our media here.
I have searched but as far as I can tell there seems to be no direct plugin for Final Cut to export as an ASF or a WMV file.
I work for a college, and I use a Mac to create our videos, but most people use PCs here to do everything else - including our technicians and web developers - so most people here are in the dark.
I am really stuck here folks. Ideally, I want to be able to stream video files of about 60mbs on our college website - and find a way to have these videos running on a Windows Media Server.
Thanks a lot - if anyone can help me I would be extremely grateful.
Simon

Thanks so much for all your responses.
I will trial the two programmes that have been mentioned - in terms of streaming .asf I am still in the dark as to the best way to proceed.
Would you all recommend converting first to a WMV file and then using a PC and related software to convert to .ASF - as I would have to do with Flip4Mac
Or... using software that will convert directly from .MOV to .ASF on a Mac - as the Aimersoft programme seems to suggest it does?
Thanks once again - I have been really impressed and really grateful with how quick these forums are to help people out!
Simon

it should work, according to this (rather old) discussion: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=2291517#post2291517.
Apple says in [this|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461] support article:
Requirements
A full, single-disc version of Windows 7 (Mac OS X v10.6 or later only), Windows Vista, Windows XP Home Edition or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later. Boot Camp does not include Windows. You must provide your own properly licensed installation disc. Important: A Windows XP installation disc must include Service Pack 2 (SP2). You cannot install an earlier version of Windows and upgrade to Windows XP, nor install an earlier version of Windows XP and update it to SP2. _*Media Center, OEM, and upgrade versions of Windows XP are not recommended*_.
but they don't say it's not possible.
good luck !
