Sharepoint 2013 "Variations" not working

I created a publishing site on Sharepoint online. I have left the "Variation Settings" as it is , i.e. default. I created source and target label and created hierachy. Source Label is english and target is french. After they got created by
the timer job, I created a document library in the source and added text file with some content in english. On the home page of source, I added some text ,clicked on variations and gave update all targets.
1. But after the timer job ran, I went to the french site and the content had come in english,so I published it and clicked "Machine Translate", I got an email that the job was complete, but when I went to the site, the content was still in english.
Wasn't it supposed to be converted to french?
2. After the document got created in target label, I clicked on Machine Translate ->selected items, it's been 24 hrs and still the content is in english. Am i missing something in both the above scenarios?

Hi,
According to your description, the Variation Settings does not work after configuration.
Did you see the content in the root site URL ?
After you create variation hierarchy, the sub site for multi-language will be created.
For English language, the sub site URL will be like “http://www.contoso.com/en-us”.
For French language, the sub site URL will be like “http://www.contoso.com/fr-fr”.
I suggest you check the URL you visited and make sure it is right.

Hi cagman,
Please make sure Search Host Controller Service, Search Query and Site Settings Service, SharePoint Server Search are started on manange services on server.
Then check the Search service application, and make sure search application topology is ok.
Then reset Index, and run a full crawl. After crawling, search again, compare the result.

Hi,
Based on your description, my understanding is that when you ran SharePoint 2013 workflow, an error occurred.
You can try to re-register the Workflow Service.
Here is
a link about how to configure workflow for SharePoint Server 2013, you can use as a reference:

Sharepoint 2013 Workflow not available on Site created from Sharepoint 2013 Foundation Solution Template

If I create a template on SharePoint 2013 Foundation, then create a site on SharePoint Enterprise (or Office/365) fully configured to support SharePoint 2013 workflows. When I access the site through SharePoint Designer 2013, and attempt to create a workflow
SharePoint 2013 Workflows are not available -- you get message that SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform is not available because it is not configured on the server. This appears to be a bug in SharePoint Designer as the 2013 Workflows are available on the team
site on the same site collection. There is no reason that a site created from a SharePoint 2013 foundation template should have this restriction.   To make matters worse if you then save that site as a template on the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise (or
Office/365) system and create a new site from the that template you get the same issue.
Anyone know a workaround/fix to this issue.   Have imported the template into Visual Studio but I can not find any way in Visual Studio to enable SharePoint 2013 workflows.   A solution that involves Visual Studio import would work fine
for me.
Earllibby

Apparently you did not read my question very carefully.   The workflow manager is configured properly on this server and for the basic Team site in this site collection the full SharePoint 2013 workflows are available in SharePoint Designer 2013.
BUT they are not available on another site in the SAME SITE COLLECTION that was created from a solution template that was created on a SharePoint Foundation server.

Power view in SharePoint - Required fields not working!!!

Hi,
We have SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2014 and SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode.
We have a "Microsoft BI Semantic Model for Power View"-data connection in a document library and by clicking it users can create their own Power View reports.
We have in the document library defined a couple of columns as required.
When a user saves their Power View report(File->Save as) to the document library, the required fields are left blank. They are not checked!!!
WHY?
Does Power View use REST when saving to the document library?
This question should be in SQL Server/Power View/SharePoint -forumns, but MSDN forces you to select only one.
How can we enforce the checking of required columns???

It might be the result of nested script tags.
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
<!--
Remote one of those opening tags and remove the closing tag in between the scripts.
Also, I'm not sure if you are aware, but your site looks completely broken in Firefox. Edges are ragged and the text runs off the page in places. This is the result of using a graphics program to create your html. Image ready slices are fine for prototyping, but not suitable for production work because they create code that is fragile and too rigid.
I also would not use the Flash header you have used just to display imges. I suggest using a more accessible method.

Power View for Sharepoint 2013 'Feature not available'

Hello All,
We are trying to set up Power view in Sharepoint but every time I click the power button on a report we get the "The
feature: "Power View" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services." error.
Our setup consists of two servers. One is the sharepoint 2013 Enterprise server and the other is our DW server that sits outside of the farm.
The DW Server has Sql 2012 SP1 (Enterprise) and two instances of AS, one in multi-dimensional mode and one with power pivot for SP.
We were able to get power pivot working with Sharepoint without issue but we can't seem to get Power View to work. I've read through some threads but it still doesn't seem clear what I need to do. Someone mentioned that we needed to install Sharepoint
on the DW server but we would like to avoid that if we can due to the current load on the server. Another suggestion was to install the RsSharepoint on the sharepoint server and that would enable power view.
I know there is already an RS Service app, would that needed removed as well?

Only SQL BI and SQL Enterprise have the appropriate edition of Reporting Services to enable PowerView:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993(v=sql.110).aspx#Reporting
You would need to uninstall SSRS using SQL Standard and re-install with BI or Enterprise on the SharePoint server.

SharePoint DatePicker is not working in Visual webpart

Hi,
The sharepoint date picker is not working for Visual webparts created in VS 2012 (SP 2013).
In my visual webpart, I added the form digest, and then the sharePoint date control.
<script type="text/javascript" src="/_layouts/15/datepicker.js"></script>
<SharePoint:DateTimeControl ID="dtDate" runat="server" DateOnly="true" />
I get the "/ error in Application". Many websites are saying to add the below line to the datepicker:
<SharePoint:DateTimeControl ID="dtDate" runat="server"
DateOnly="true" DatePickerFrameUrl="<%
$SPUrl:~sitecollection/_layouts/15/iframe.aspx %>" />
But adding the "DatePickerFrameUrl" gives error in the "InitializeControl()" method available in OnInit().
Error: The name InitializeControl does not exist in the current context.
I have checked this:
http://developmentsimplyput.blogspot.in/2013/04/sharepoint-datetimecontrol-issue-when.html
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/57092/sharepointdatetimecontrol-crashes-in-sp2013-webpart
but did not solve the issue. Also creating a root site for just a DatePicker control is not an option for me.
Has anybody found a solution to this?
How to use the SharePoint datepicker in visual webpart for SP 2013?
Thanks

hi
did you try to investigate the initial error more deeply, e.g. check stack trace in the logs? In our case it worked quite straightforward (but it was in SP2010) by adding the following control on ascx control:
<SharePoint:DateTimeControl ID="Foo" OnDateChanged="StartTimeChanged" HoursMode24="true" FirstDayOfWeek="1" AutoPostBack="true" runat="server" />
If it is problematic to check logs, you may create custom control which inherits OTB DateTimeControl, override appropriate methods in it and then check the error in debugger:
public class MyDateTimeControl : DateTimeControl

SPD 2013 Workflow not working

Hello,
I'm running into a very interesting issue, we have a 2013 custom list that has some 2010 and 2013 workflows associated with it. Just until recently the workflows were working fine, but now only 2010 workflows are working.
I updated one of the 2013, tried to publish it but then I canceled the process of publishing it because I had to make a new update.... not sure if this flipped the switch on these but now even if I create new ones in SPD they will not run. Also if
I try to run in manually I get a message - "Something went wrong. To try again, reload the page and then start the workflow"(the option for start manually is enabled in SPD 2013). Any help on this will be greatly appreciated!

Hi Ghabib05,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you ran a SharePoint 2013 workflow.
Afer you made some change in your workflow, whether you re-published the workflow. if not, please publish it, then test again, compare the result.
Please create a new SharePoint 2013 workflow on the list, then test, compare the result.
If this issue only occurred on the specifical workflow, I suggest you create a new workflow instead of the problematic one.
If this issue occurred on all SharePoint 2013 workflow, you can try to re-register workflow service.

SharePoint 2013 alerts not sending emails to users

Worked on this all day yesterday and to no avail.
Followed up on every one of these fixes and they are all correct/have been run.
http://www.sharepointdiary.com/2012/02/sharepoint-alerts-not-working-troubleshooting-checklist.html
I got a telnet session to work as well but still, no alerts are being sent to users when something changes.
I poked holes in the firewall, set up a receive connector in exchange server as well.
In outbound email settings, I tried putting in the IP address and the server name (which both should work) but nothing happened.
Any suggestions anyone?

could you please give us more details about the issue.
Alerts not working for every body or few users?
Users on network or out-network i.e gmail etc
Any error in Uls Logs?
using the exchange server, are your server part of Exchange relay?
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Microsoft Office 2013 is not working on Windows 8

I downloaded Microsoft office 2 days ago. Since then Window 8.1 update has basically attempted to ruin my life. Since I attempted to download the update (which will not download properly no matter how many times I try) Microsoft office will not
open on my computer. All the apps are still there. But they simply will not open. I have tried going to the start and typing the stuff in safe mode, still nothing happens! Can someone please help me? I am beyond frustrated with my brand new computer,
Windows 8.1, Microsoft, and everything about this situation.

Hi,
Did only the Office suits not open or all the apps after you upgrading to Windows 8.1? Please do the following tests to narrow down the issue:
First test:
If only the Office suits could not be opened, please go to Office 2013 installed folder, such as C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15 and double click apps to open them.
If all the apps could not be opened, please press win+R and copy the path:
%windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1} to Windows 8 app folder double click apps to open them.
If they are both opened in folder, please try to unpin and repin apps on start screen.
If they still do not work, do the second test.
Second test:
If only the Office suits could not be opened, please try to re-install the Office 2013 to test.
If all the apps could not be opened, Please follow these steps to check the issue.
Step 1: Try App troubleshooter:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/4/F24D0C03-4181-4E5B-A23B-5C3A6B5974E3/apps.diagcab
Step 2: Re-register app files:
Run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML
For your reference:
Fix Store App in Windows 8.1 (AppxManifest.XML)
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/notime/archive/2013/10/18/fix-store-app-in-windows-8-1.aspx
Step 3: If the issue still persists, please try to log on with local account and re-bind your Microsoft account in Windows Store to see what’s going on.
Hope these could be helpful.

2013 Workflow not working for tenant admin

Hi
I've been struggling with an issue developing a site for a client. They have their own SharePoint 2013 tenancy, which we can manage as a partner. I can log in to the site with my own company account linked to Office 365, and can do everything I need to in
terms of site administration.
However, I've run into a problem whereby although I can create and publish SharePoint 2013 workflows, I cannot run them successfully. If there is anything in the workflow such as writing to the history list, the workflow hangs with the status "Started"
and "Activity in progress" (no error message).
I've got around the problem by testing the workflow as a user from our client's tenancy, but I'm curious as to why my user doesn't work for this. It works fine for everything else, including SharePoint 2010 workflows. Is there some permission somewhere that
needs to be set, or is this by design?
Duncan

Hi Ganesh,
Based on your description, I recommend you verify the things below:
Check if the SharePoint search service account is added in the Windows Authorization Access Group in Active Directory.
Check if the non-admin users have permission to view the results searched.
Check if the inline search can work in lists’ pages or libraries’ pages.
Best regards.
Thanks

Exchange 2013 ActiveSync not working

Hello everyone,
We seem to be having problems with our ActiveSync not working anymore. Users with mobile devices can not access their mailboxes. We have checked just about every setting and the IIS logs and can't find an answer to this issue. Microsoft's Remote Connectivity
Analyzer shows the following error which we can not find an answer for anywhere.
An ActiveSync session is being attempted with the server.
    Errors were encountered while testing the Exchange ActiveSync session.
   Test Steps
   Attempting to send the OPTIONS command to the server.
    Testing of the OPTIONS command failed. For more information, see Additional Details.
   Additional Details
    A Web exception occurred because an HTTP 400 - BadRequest response was received from IIS7.
Thanks!

Hi,
Did you ever find a solution to your problem? I have exactly the same problem with a fresh install of exchange 2013. Can access mailboxes via outlook 2010 and owa but can't connect any mobile device. I'm stumped...
a 400 IIS Bad Request error indicates token bloat. Are you proxying to 2010 mailboxes?
The usual fix is to set the following reg keys on the CAS receiving the requests following the first step described in this article that is similar:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2491354
Create the following registry keys on all CAS servers (both Exchange Server 2007 CAS servers and Exchange Server 2010 SP1 CAS servers) in the Active Directory site:
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters
Name: MaxFieldLength
Type: DWORD
Value data: 65534
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters

SSRS subscriptions in default zone of sharepoint 2013 are not showing in intranet zone and vice versa.

one of the Sharepoint 2013 site collection has alternate access mappings created. Default site is .com and intranet is .local.
So when we add SSRS subscription in .com - they are not showing in .local and vice- versa. How do we fix this so the subscriptions are same in both .com and .local.

Hi spanda,
Per my understanding that you have configured the alternate access mappings which Default site is .com and intranet is .local. But the subscription in one of the site will not list in another mapped site, right?
Actually, if you are on a different Alternate Access Mapping other than the Subscription was created on, we will get no subscriptions, Because we are using the method "Microsoft.ReportServices.SharePoint.UI.ManageSubscriptionPages"
to deal with the logic by creating the value for "m_reportUrl" using the current context of the URL the user is using and passing that to the "SubscriptionListControl". You can find the code in this article if you have some
knowledge of development:
SQL Server Reporting Services ignores Alternate Access Mappings When Checking for Report Subscriptions
I recommand you to submit an feedback at
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
If the suggestion mentioned by customers for many times, the product team may consider to add the feature in the next SQL Server version. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service
