Sharepoint Client Context Retrieval From a Web app authenticated with Ping Federate

Hi All,
We are developing a WCF which would read value from a SharePoint list where web application only has Ping Federate authentication in all Zones. We have to use client object model since WCF would be hosted in a different server.We are not able to get data as
when clientContext.ExecuteQuery(); is called it throws forbidden error. We have followed the below blog http://travisspencer.com/blog/2010/03/getting-a-token-from-pingfeder.html how ever we are getting reply <faultstring>Unable to determine partner
SP connection by AppliesTo: url</faultstring>. While we are calling the using the below blog were getting forbidden error at _layouts/authenticate.aspx itself.

Please let le me know if you have any working examples or documents regarding the same.
Thanks & Regards, Balu

Hi,
Does the account in use has the permission to access the SharePoint list? By default, we will come across the “Access Denied” if the current account has no access to a SharePoint
object.
For the authentication issue with SharePoint Client Object Model, you can try to set the credential to ClientContext object with the help of
NetworkCredential Class.
More information about authentication with SharePoint Client Object Model:

How to create new instance of the process from external web apps?

Hi Everyone,
How to create a new instance of the process which deploy to the weblogic server from the external web app?
Thank you.

Assuming the process includes a message start event, the simplest way is to use Web Service call. Once you've deployed the process you can use Enterprise Manager to get the URL of the WSDL. There's and icon at the top of the composite summary page for getting the WSDL, or you can get it from the test page. Use that WSDL URL to construct the client to use from the web app. If it's an ADF client you can generate either an ADF Data Control or a client proxy.

Office Web Apps 2013 with SharePoint 2013 Server

Hi All,
I have installed a separate server for Office Web Apps 2013 on Windows Server 2012 VM. I have followed TechNet's article on
Deploying Office Web Apps Server & exactly followed steps.
On SharePoint Server 2013 (Windows Server 2012), I followed TechNet’s article on
Configure Office Web Apps for SharePoint. The Office Web Apps on SharePoint 2013 environment works for
Excel document that shows “View in Browser” but
no Preview.
However, PowerPoint and Word documents doesn’t show “View in Browser”. I thought Internet Explorer 10 has some issue with Office Web Apps and checked on Chrome and results were same.
On SharePoint Server 2013 environment, I have configured 3 services applications, MMS, UPS and Excel Service.
1.) Do I need any other service applications to be enabled for OWA 2013?
I read number of blogs,
Installing Office Web Apps Server for SharePoint 2013 (Steve Mann),
Install Office Web Apps 2013 with SharePoint 2013 (Max Melcher) and Spence Harbar
(Enabling Office Web Apps Preview editing with SharePoint 2013). and all these blogs give more or less same steps that I have followed.
Strange thing is that Excel documents on my SharePoint 2013 sites are working but neither word or PowerPoint documents are not showing option for “View in Browser”.
I am using HTTP and not HTTPS.
2. Can someone please advice how could I solve the Office Web Apps 2010 on Word and PPT?
3. How to can enable preview for Excel, Word and PPT documents.
Thanks you.

Hi Inderjeet and Olafur,
Thanks for your reply.
@Inderjeet: That site collection feature on SP2010 works on our production environment but on SP2013 site collection there is no OWA feature. Microsoft recommends to have a separate OWA2013 server and what I create
a separate VM for OWA2013 server.
@Olafur: Your suggestion looks spot on. The OWA server does show the discovery:
Our SP2013 development server has limited RAM (4GB) and it think is causing the issue.
Let me check if increasing RAM solves the issue.
Thanks again for your suggestions. (Interjeet and Olafur).

Hi Everyone,
I figured out the error. The error is caused by the "Fasterfox extension". Disable or uninstall the extension and then try to open the outlook after restarting the firefox.

Scoping out Sharepoint - Is it possible to run web apps in the same domain as a web page? (ie not with references to a cloud)

From what I understand, with sharepoint it is possible to run web apps on the server that don't need to be referenced via the cloud, ie in contrast to SkyDrive.
If so, would it be possible to create a web site on the share point server that embeds say a word web app in a page, all done in the one server, on the same domain?
Thanks

Hi,
First Office Web Apps and SharePoint can't be installed in one server as it's not supported. So you need at least two servers - one for SharePoint and another for Office Web Apps. About 'word web app', As far as I know you can run word app/excel app runs
in either word/excel but not inside Office Web Apps.

How can I get the context-parm from a web.xml file using struts?

Hello:
I need get the context-param from the web.xml file of my web project using struts. I want configurate the jdbc datasource connection pooling here. For example:
<context-param>
<param-name>datasource</param-name>
<param-value>jdbc/formacion</param-value>
<description>Jdbc datasource</description>
</context-param>
and then from any Action class get this parameter.
Similar using a simple server can be:
/** Initiates new XServlet */
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
          for (Enumeration e = config.getInitParameterNames(); e.hasMoreElements();) {
               System.out.println(e.nextElement());
          super.init(config);
          String str = config.getInitParameter("datasource");
          System.out.println(str);
     public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
          throws ServletException, IOException {
          // res.setContentType( );
          System.out.println("Got post request in XServlet");
          PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
          out.println("nada");
          out.flush();
          out.close();
but only this works for init-params, if I use
<servlet>
     <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
     <display-name>MyServlet</display-name>
     <servlet-class>myExamples.servlet.MyServlet</servlet-class>
     <init-param>
     <param-name>datasource</param-name>
     <param-value>jdbc/formacion</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
inside my web.xml. I need something similar, but using struts inside the action class for that I can get the context-params and call my database.
Thank you

To get context parameters from your web.xml file you can simply get the ActionServlet object from an implementing action object class. In the perform (or execute) method make the following call.
ServletContext context = getServlet().getServletContext();
String tempContextVar =
context.getInitParameter("<your context param >");

Data sync to external SQL from Access Web App

Hi all
Am I dreaming or does creating a table in an Access Web app based on an external SQL Azure database table (not the intrinsic one) end up being an import not a sync? It doesn't even seem to update when i open the external table and refresh it?
I am adding new records at the external SQL source and they are not updating in the table in the WebApp
Is anyone having similar problems?
Cheers
Sally

Hi Sally,
>> I am adding new records at the external SQL source and they are not updating in the table in the WebApp
Do you mean that you import a table from an external SQL Azure database into Access Web app, the data in Access Web app did not update after you change the an external SQL Azure database data? In my option, this is expected behavior if you are using import
table. Importing from another database would not achieve that, and it only achieves copying data from another database. I am afraid that you could not achieve your requirement from Access Web app.
As far as I know, the database of Access web app is Azure DB, I think you could sync the Access web app Azure DB and External Azure DB, you could refer the link below for more information.
Reference:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sql-database-get-started-sql-data-sync/
I am not familiar with Azure DB, and if you have issues about Azure DB, I will recommend you go to the link below for help.

Delete reminders from Outlook Web App

Hello
I am an Outlook 2010 and Outlook Web App user running Windows 7.
I have had issues with Calendar Logging and huge numbers of items - tens of thousands, often for the same meeting request. I spoke with my exchange provider and they removed the calendar logging folders from the web app (not sure what they did), however,
I still receive reminders (currently 150) for meetings that no longer exist in my calendar. These do not appear in Outlook 2010 (although calendar logging is an issue, see below), only in the Outlook Web App. When I dismiss or individually delete the reminders
they disappear only to return a few seconds later.
I have tried running Outlook with the /cleanreminders switch and others. I have tried using MFCMAPI to find reminders and delete them although none are shown. I have checked and repaired my outlook ost file.
Outlook 2010 often displays an "updating calendar logging" message. This often causes Outlook to be unresponsive. I have the same issue with the Mail application on a mac machine.
I am a sole trader without an IT department. My exchange host is not that helpful.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Rhys

Thanks Martina.
I made the change you suggested and found the reminders... all 51,600 of them!
Do you have any idea what might be causing this. Anyway, I am not able to delete them. I get an error message:

Cross Domain Web App Authentication

I have two web apps that are running within different domains. They both use j_security for authentication. Is it possible to link from one web app to the other without requiring the user to reauthenticate? I tried setting the security credential to the same on both servers, which didn't work. Do I have to have to do something with cookies and do the roles need to be defined the same on both servers? Is what I am trying to do even possible without a third party single sign on product?

1)Enable domain wide security credentails same for both the domain.
2) Have user and groups and roles the same in both servers.

How to get error information back from Office Web Apps server?

I'm developing a web application with an embedded Word iframe that interfaces with an Office Web Apps server; I am trying to implement the MS-FSSHTTPB protocol for my WOPI server.
More details here. When I send a bad response back to the OWA server it stops making requests to the WOPI server and sends the following error message back to the browser client: "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document. If this
happens again, try opening the document in Microsoft Word."
Is there a way I can get additional information about what went wrong so that I can correct it?

Yes, this is closely related to SharePoint.
I'm trying to embed a Word editor in our web app. The Word iframe is served from the OWA server. It typically communicates with a SharePoint server to receive information about the document its trying to display.
I'm trying to implement the SharePoint portion. The servers communicate via the MS-FSSHTTPB protocol (among others) which I'm struggling to implement. When I send a response to the OWA server that it doesn't like then it stops replying. I'm wondering how
I can retrieve the exact error the occurred.
I believe I originally posted this question to Open Specifications > SharePoint Server Protocols.
