SCSM 2012 SSP Permission for End users

Hello Experts,
I have an issues with SSP - SCSM 2012 SP1.
As an admin user, I can see theOfferings, see the pending requests, can see the requests I have submitted, Approve them etc. But when I am an end user, browsing from my laptop, I see a blank Home page. I dont see the Service offerings in the
homepage..even I dont see the Need Help? text. What is the issue? FYI : Silver light is already installed on my laptop.
Interestingly, I see the Need Help? text with the same end user credential when I am opening the browser inside the server wher SSP is installed.
But, in both the cases, whether I browse in the server or from my laptop, I dont see the service offerings anywhere when i am an end user. I followed the below article..but no success.. :(

Please help...
Thanks!

Hi,
Did you add the Service Offerings and Request Offerings to the Catalog Group? Here is another good blog on this you can reference:

I am using DPM 2012 R2, what finally worked to me to resolve my problem with EUR was to:
In DPM I disabled EUR
In Computer Management delete all DPM Shares (\\?\c:\Program Files\...)
Using ADSI edit go to CN=MS-ShareMapConfiguration,CN=System,DC=X,DC=Y (Replace X & Y for your domain)
Delete all of the mappings within the container
In DPM enable EUR
In DPM on a protection group I created a new recovery point and selected “Only synchronize (available only for file data)”

Recording NWBC scripts for End User Experience

Hi Experts,
I am recording NWBC scripts using the Netweaver Business Client GUI for loading and running it through Robots for End User Experience Monitoring. I don't see an option to "LogOff" in NWBC client while recording the script. We only have option to "Close all session and LogOff" in NWBC client .
When I am using this option, it closes all the sessions including the EEM Recorder also without saving the recording .
I need to include "LogOff" as the last step so that it doesn't leave any active sessions for each run by different robots.
I have a Solution Manager 7.1 SP10 and NWBC client 3.5 Patch 13.
Please help me achieve this.
Regards,
Manish K

Hi,
for a browser the recommendation is to open a new, empty tab to keep the browser alive while closing the tab with the session. All that with the hope that the backend will use the triggered event of collapsing tab to close session.
Maybe a similar strategy works for NWBC.. but I don't know the UI in detail.

Reset passwork for end user using XE version 2.1.0.00.39

Hi All,
I would like to create a link "Change Password" for end users to able to change their password anytime. I've followed the link below
Self Reset Password
but it still require the admin login before end users can change their password.
The following steps that I did:
1. Under "Shared Components", create a Navigation Bar entry name "Change Password".
2. On page 1, click on the "Change Password" link under Navigation Bar and entered
Target Type = URL
URL Target = javascript:popupURL('f?p=4350:53:&SESSION.:::53.F4350_P53_USER_NAME::APP_USER');
How do i make the "Change password" link go directly to reset password page after end users clicked on it without admin login require? I'm using a default authentication and all end users assigned to user group.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin

Kevin,
You want the users to go to popup page 58 (in application 4350). See this thread: Re: Pop Up Change Password Window . But I don't know if that will work in 2.1.
In general, you're better off using other types of account management tools such as LDAP.

Page customization for end user

is it possible to use other mechanism for end users to customize their own pages instead using the portal features since it's a little complicated cause each user needs to create new pages, add portlet, etc.
Can we use the mechanism like my cnn, my yahoo,excite and how to do that in a simple way?
thanks for helping

Hi,
I have the same question, but I would like to have a seperate page or application, showing only predetermined portlets, for users to choose from and place on their page. I do not want the end user to ever see the customization process Oracle uses. Can this be done???
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Karthika Siva ([email protected]):
A simple way to do this:
1. Create a page that will become the default page for end users. This page will have your branded look & feel (style) and contain a default set of portlets. These are portlets that you think your typical user will find useful.
2. Create portal user.
3. Grant one of the following privileges on the page to the user. Grant 'Full Customization' or 'Add Only Customization' depending on how much control you want to give the end user. Keep in mind that both of these privileges allow the end user to only customize their PRIVATE VERSION of the page. Others will see the default, or their own version if they have also personalized it. See the online help on the Access tab of the Customize Page screen for a description of the privileges.
4. Once that is done, set this page as the default home page for the user. You can do this using the Preferences tab on the edit user screen.
Now the portal user can log into the portal, and personalize his/her page by customizing portlets on the page, hiding/showing default portlets, and even adding other portlets to the page.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Applet Debugging Option for End Users

Users in our 12.0.4 development system that only have the 'xMII Users' role can see and use the 'Applet Debugging' option under the System Management menu. I'd prefer them to only have the options under the Support menu.
I'm puzzled why this one option is availble for end users. What am I missing?
David Macindoe

What am I missing?
I guess nothing.
Its just that it is designed this way. Moreover the option is harmless from a Security point of view.
May be you will find this 'fixed' in later versions.

Utilizing the Workspace for end users

Trying to see how can I utilize the existing workspace for "end users" who are supposed to access the application, I have two questions:
1- How to remove the extra regions, logos and etc.
2- How to add link to the application
Thanks,
Mehr

I'm not clear on your question, but I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and think you would like to customise the workspace login

Why not provide them the appropriate URL in the first place?

User Satisfaction Surveys on SCSM 2012 SSP

My company is implementing SCSM 2012, and I'd like to move our User Satisfaction Surveys off to the SSP. Conceptually since this is SharePoint we should be able to duplicate what we did with our original SharePoint 2007 surveys, but after re-reading the
available examples that reference 2007, I can't for the life of me figure out what I need to do to set this up on the SSP instead.
I'd like detailed instructions on doing this if anyone has them available, or can point me in the right direction at least if they've done the same.

I'm at the same stage as Marcel, my survey works, the incidentID and Analyst fields are hidden, my email notification link contains the Trouble Ticket ID and assigned to persons username:
http://SharepointSurveySite/Lists/IT Satisfactionary Survey/overview.aspx?IncidentID=IR142&Analyst=Test User
But when I review a response to the survey, IncidentID and Analyst is undefined.
I've tried inserting the Java code where Pablo suggest above and I tried inserting it where this blog suggests, doesnt seem to make any difference at all.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/carlospantoja/archive/2012/08/09/incident-resolution-satisfaction-surveys-on-sharepoint-2010.aspx
I have not editted the script, I gather I am supposed to "uncomment out" the setLookupFromFieldName and replace the field display name and query string name, but with what?
setInputValueFromFieldName("IncidentID", vals["IncidentID"],
true);
setInputValueFromFieldName("Analyst", vals["Analyst"],
true);
//setLookupFromFieldName("<<FIELD DISPLAY NAME>>", vals["<<QUERYSTRING VARIABLE NAME>>"]);
EDIT: I am using SCSM 2012 SP1 and SharePoint 2010 Foundation, editting the aspx with SharePoint Designer 2010, Servers 2008 R2 SP1 and Clients Win 7 64bit SP1.

DPM 2012 still requires put end users into local admin groups for the purpose of end user data recovery?

On client computers that are protected by DPM 2010 and prior versions, you had to put the end users account in the local administrators group. If you did not add the end user account to the local administrators group you would get this error after opening
the recovery tab in the DPM client: “DPM found no recovery points which you are authorized to restore on the specified DPM server. You can restore only those recovery points for which you were an administrator at the time the
backup was taken. To restore other recovery points, contact your DPM administrator, or attempt to restore from another DPM.” This is not ideal on many networks because the end users are not allowed to have local administrator access.
Ths fix to this was included in hotfix 2465832 found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2465832.
This hotfix (a hotfix rollup package for DPM 2010) resolves other issues with DPM 2010 as well. You can find the full list of what this hotfix corrects on that link.
One would think this issue should have been resolved in DPM 2012, however I am encountering the same exact issue, had to include end-users into the workstation local admin group before they can search for recovery points on the DPM server. This is not acceptable
practice.
Is there a new hotfix for the same issue on DPM 2012? I am hesitated to apply KB2465832 since it also includes many other fixes for DPM 2010, which may not appicable for version 2012.
Please help.
Thanks,

This is a hands off solution to allow all users that use a machine to be able to restore their own files.
1) Make these two cmd files and save them in c:\temp
2) Using windows scheduler – schedule addperms.cmd to run daily – any new users that log onto the machine will automatically be able to restore their own files.
<addperms.cmd>
Cmd.exe /v /c c:\temp\addreg.cmd
<addreg.cmd>
set users=
echo Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00>c:\temp\perms.reg
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Agent\ClientProtection]>>c:\temp\perms.reg
FOR /F "Tokens=*" %%n IN ('dir c:\users\*. /b') do set users=!users!%Userdomain%\\%%n,
echo "ClientOwners"=^"%users%%Userdomain%\\bogususer^">>c:\temp\perms.reg
REG IMPORT c:\temp\perms.reg
Del c:\temp\perms.reg

I've been scripting on KIX for some time, so here is mine, hope it helps to someone... (it's probably not the best, but it works)
========================================================================
$RC=setoption("WOW64AlternateRegView","on")
$DPMkey = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Agent\ClientProtection"
$uservariable = "%userdomain%\%username%"
If KeyExist ($DPMkey)
$Userstring=ReadValue($DPMkey, "ClientOwners")
If $Userstring == ""
WriteValue($DPMkey,"ClientOwners", $uservariable, "REG_MULTI_SZ")
? "Key created"
else
If not instr($Userstring,$uservariable)
$Userstring = "$Userstring,$uservariable"
WriteValue($DPMkey,"ClientOwners", $Userstring, "REG_MULTI_SZ")
EndIf
Endif
EndIf
==========================================================================
The problem actually is that you still need to use an admin account to write on the registry, so ensure you configure it properly on the schedule task.
In case you use a service account on the schedule task... the "$uservariable" will get populated with that account. As a work around to this... I changed it for the following line:
=========================================================
$uservariable = ReadValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI", "LastLoggedOnSAMUser")
=========================================================
The only problem with that, is that key gets created/updated only if user gets logged phisically on that PC, but will not work for anyone connecting through RDP.

Is there a way for end users to give their manager access to change their Out of Office, without an admin involved?

Our end users need to be able to give their managers access to enable their out of office.
question 1. Can this be done without giving them full access?
question 2. If they need full access, can the end user themselves give this access? (I've tried giving another user "owner" rights, but the user still can't seem to open my calendar from OWA to adjust my out of office)
question 3. Can this be done without an Sys Admin being involved?

You can create a RBAC role for each manager scoped to each of their employees that lets them run the Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration cmdlet on the exchange server. Otherwise they will need full access to the users mailbox which an admin would have
to grant, the end user can not grant this permission. Then they can open the other users mailbox in OWA and set the OOF

We've tried re-installing the SSP and SharePoint and configured different ports however the error did not improve. It does not matter whether you try to access the SSP from a client or the server the result is the same. This problem
only seems to exist when clicking on "Help Articles", searching for a KA, and then clicking the actual KA link.
Has anyone else run into this or might know of a solution?
Thank you.

These type of errors usually indicate that the web services are not bound to the proper protocols. Hopefully this will help you.
Make copies of the web.config files before editing!!!!
Take look at the Custom Bindings in the web.config file for the contenthost virtual directory. Make sure that both DefaultHttpBinding and DefaultHttpsBinding are present. See below.
<binding name="DefaultHttpBinding">
     <binaryMessageEncoding />
     <httpTransport maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" />
    </binding>
<binding name="DefaultHttpsBinding">
     <binaryMessageEncoding />
     <httpsTransport maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" />
    </binding>
Also look at the endpoint address mappings to make sure that both are there.
<endpoint address="ServiceHost/Services/DataAccessService.svc" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="DefaultHttpBinding" ........
<endpoint address="ServiceHost/Services/DataAccessService.svc" binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="DefaultHttpsBinding" ................
Next, look at the ServiceHost virtual director web.config file: Make sure that everything is using HTTPS bindings. See below:
Look at ServiceBehavior Section:
Make sure that HTTPSGetEnabled=true is set.
In the Services Section:
Make sure that endpoint bindingconfiguration=DefaultHttpsBinding is set.
In the Bindings > CustomBinding Section:
Make sure that the Binding Name is DefaultHttpsBinding
Save the files and reset IIS, see what you get now.

Form Designed in LiveCycle will not work for End User

Please Help!
I am a newbie to Adobe LiveCycle but recognized the utility in the program, so decided to give it a while to try and streamline some of my employer's forms. After spending too much time learning how to design a form (much to the dislike of my boss), I am finally going to have to ask for some help. So here's the deal:
I've designed a dynamic pdf in LiveCycle with two master pages and two repeating flowed subforms. The first repeating subform is basically an expanding table intended to be used as a photographer's log where they can log each photo taken with the camera. The expanding table has some code with a button at the top for the end user to enter the number of photos on the photo roll, click submit, and table expands to however many instances of rows are needed for each photo that was taken. The second subform is basically an image field and text fields used as photo captions/photo compilation pages. When the end user clicks submit on the first subform to expand the table, I also have javascript in that click event to also create same amouint of instances of the second subform (the photo compilation page(s)). Each text field for the photo caption on the second subform is populated by the data entered into the photo log table cells. I was able to find a script to correctly populate those fields for each instance of the table. Wish I had the form here, but it's at work at the moment.
My problem is this: I've scratched and clawed to get all of the forms expanding correctly and the scripts populating each instance of the fields correctly and everything works great in LiveCycle preview. I then saved the form as PDF for use by my field crew personnel (whom all use, at the very least, Adobe Pro 9, but most Pro X). I sent the new form to them and they move it to their desktop, open it with Adobe Pro, and populate all of the fields and everything works swimmingly. However, once they save it, it gets all jumbled and they can't even print it. We even thought we found a workaround by entering all data and printing to PDF, but even that has turned out to not work. I checked to make sure that I designed and saved the form in LiveCycle for use with the Adobe Pro versions, but still not working for my end users.
Anyone have any thoughts on my long explanation?? Please HELLLLPPPP!

The error(s) occur when trying to save the document. I want each user to tell the first page how many rows they will need in the photo log table, so they would enter however many photos were taken in the box: "Number of Photos on Roll:" ---> Then click the "Submit" cmd button. That should expand the table. Once it expands, it should also add the same amount of instances of the photo compilation page (2nd Page) as there are rows in 1st page table. Then the user will populate each cell of the table on page 1 with data. The data entered into the page 1 table cells will populate the text fields (photo caption) in Page 2 once the user clicks on the "Populate Captions!" cmd button in the lower left corner of the table on Page 1.
The problem is in the distributing of the form to the user so they can save the form after populating the data. I did a test run this morning and for some reason it did do the "print to PDF" correctly for 5 photos on the roll (though this has not been happening every time and especially for a large number of pages, ie. 80 photos). However, after entering the data for 5 rows on page 1 and then populating the 5 photo compilation pages, I saved a copy as "Save As PDF" and closed the document. Then re-opened the copy in Acrobat Pro X. The new copy:
-had 5 additional rows added to Page 1
-Duplicates of some of the fields
-Only retained the 1st instance of the Second Page (Photo w/ Caption) and not all fields were populated
Again, this all works fine in the LiveCycle Preview but not anywhere else. I do not have this set up to be linked to an external data source (YET) but there is javascript in the cmd buttons. I also do not want to distribute this form to end users and then collect the data back from them. I want them to be able to save a copy of my LiveCycle designed form, open in Adobe Pro, populate the data and save as many copies as needed for form production.

Authentication prompt issue when opening an office file in a document library with read permission for domain users

An user as part of the domain users tries to open an office file from a document library but he got an authentication prompt asking him to authenticate. Domain users has only access to this library and not to the whole site. This uses to work in SharePoint
2007 without any problem but not in SharePoint 2013, we didn't have a workflow on SP2007.
Domain users has read access to only this document library in the site, but he shouldn't get an authentication prompt since he is part of the domain users and he is not trying to modify the document, he can open the document but gets two prompts, he can't
also see the list using explorer view since nothings appears using the explorer view.
Now, when opening the file, we can see..Updating Workflow Status, but we don't have any workflow working on this site or library, event any feature related to workflow.
If we go to the event viewer in the server, we find this information,
I also checked this thread but I couldn't find this scenario.

I also created another list with the same permissions and using other office files but got the same behavior.
Now, we have migrated this site from SP2007 to SP2013.
Any ideas?

OK, I am going to throw out a lot of ideas here so hopefully they get you closer to a diagnosis. Hang on :)
Does it happen to work for some users but not others? If so, try logging in on the "good" computer with the "bad" username. This will tell you if the problem is related to the end-user's system. Also, once the user downloads a document
successfully can they open and work on it in Word? Also, does the document library have any custom content types associated with it or does it just use 'Document'?
I notice that there are other folks on the web that have run into this same problem and the similarity seems to be that they are either on SharePoint 2007 or have upgraded from 2007. Did this doc library start out as a 2007 library?
What you might want to do is this: Make a site collection from scratch in 2013 (or find one that you know was created in 2013). Choose team site (or whatever you want) for the root web and set up the security the same way you have it on the malfunctioning
library. Now, use windows explorer to copy and paste some of the documents to the new location. Be sure you recreate any needed content types. Now test it from the troubled user's computer.
I'm thinking there may be something that is different about the library since it was migrated through various versions and updates since 2007. I've sometimes found that there can be problems (especially with user profiles but that's a different story) with
things that go through this evolution.
