SharePoint owners can't create subsites

Hi,
I have a site collection where owners can't create subsites all of a sudden after the publishing feature is enabled. Is this a bug or what is causing this? I also noticed that the default user groups that sharepoint creates when publishing feature is enabled
were deleted eg: style Resource readers, etc. Is it possible to restore these user groups?
Thanks

Turning on the Publishing features and removing the extra groups that Publishing creates will cause these kinds of issues.  You can recreate the groups, assuming you know exactly what all of them do but that's not really documented anywhere.  The
last time I saw this it was because an admin had deleted the groups thinking that they weren't actually being used because they didn't recognize them.  Publishing requires them all to be there even if you aren't specifically using groups like "Designers".

  • Owner can't create document in Extranet Document linbrary

    Hi everyone,
    one of our owners can't create a document in her document library in an extranet site that was created for her service.
    When she wants to create a new document (in Offic Word), she got the next error messages:
    "The operating system doen't have the right configuration to execute this application"
    and
    "The document could not be created, the required application may not be installed properly, or the template for this document library cannot be opened."
    On her pc is standard Office 2010 installed. It is compatible with Sharepoint 2010.
    Also, other owners can perfectly create new documents.
    Has anyone has this problem? How did you solved it?
    Thanks
    Wim

    Hi Wim, if she's using a VM, see the following link:
    https://cann0nf0dder.wordpress.com/2014/07/11/the-document-could-not-be-created-the-required-application-may-not-be-installed-properly-or-the-template-for-this-document-library-cannot-be-opened/
    If you use Frontpage to design sites, see this link:
    https://support.microsoft.com/KB/821515?wa=wsignin1.0
    Otherwise it may be due to her operating system:

  • In Sharepoint Server, can you create a hyperlink to a specific bookmark on a page by using the [[double square brackets]]?

    I really like the ability to use the square double brackets for hyperlinks.  It is much easier because it automatically changes the hyperlink if the page name changes.  I would like to do this with bookmarks on other pages (for example,
    I am on the home page, but I want [[Products#Automotive]] to take me to the Products page at the Automotive bookmark.
    Thank you kindly for your help.

    Only one Wiki pages, see
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/14992.creating-bookmarks-in-sharepoint-2010-wiki-pages.aspx I also remember the TechNet galleries contained a download that adds a menu item on a Wiki page to add bookmarks, but I wasn't able to
    locate it just now.

  • In Excel 2013, can you create a powerview connected to a SQL server and then upload this to Sharepoint to 2013?

    Creating a powerview in sharepoint browser can be tedious, but it is a lot more convenient in the desktop Excel 2013. 
    However, when you upload the excel document (where data source is SQL server) to sharepoint, there are two problems:
    1. The powerview is shown as a worksheet in the excel file in sharepoint
    2. You dont get the same features as a powerview - most importantly Export to PowerPoint.
    Has anyone come across this?  Does this mean if you want to create powerview which are to be shown in full screen and also to be exported to powerpoint must always be directly created in Sharepoint browser?

    Hi,
    There is no method to get around this. According
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/power-view-explore-visualize-and-present-your-data-HA102835634.aspx,
    Both versions of Power View need Silverlight installed on the machine.
    You can’t open a Power View RDLX file in Excel, or open an Excel XLSX file with Power View sheets in Power View in SharePoint. You also can’t copy charts or other visualizations from the RDLX file into the Excel workbook.
    You can save Excel XLSX files with Power View sheets to SharePoint Server, either on premises or in Office 365, and open those files in SharePoint. Read more about
    Power View in Excel in SharePoint Server 2013 or in SharePoint Online in Office 365.
    In addition, you can try to submit the suggestions from the following link:

  • Can I create a call service database in Sharepoint

    Hi there, 
    I'm having a bit of trouble working out where in Sharepoint I can create a database for keeping track of calls for the IT help desk. 
    Should I go through Sharepoint CRM and then follow the Microsoft Dynamics CRM wizard? 
    I guess basically what I'm asking is which module of Sharepoint provides similar functionality to Microsoft Access, if any? 
    thanks,

  • Other owners can't view the added information in Sharepoint word and Excel documents

    Hi,
    I have a question where from a workplace, the owners can adjust or add information in Word and Excel docs wich are stored in a library.
    The problem is as follows: when one of the owners change the contents or adds content to one of the files, the other owners can't view in the file what's been added.
    The files are always being checked in when an owner has finished adding content.
    Also every owner has the same permissions.
    Has anyone already had this problem?
    Kind regards
    Wim

    Hi Wim,
    I think you have misunderstanding Michaelle's attention. there is no workflow related to Approve/Reject.
    Go to Library Settings->Version settings->Choose "Require content approval for submitted items?"
    Then after you publish a major version of the document, you also need to approve the document to make it approved.

  • Error while creating subsite from site template

    Hi,

  • Can I create a table in a procedure submitted to job queue?

    I have created a package (with AUTHID CURRENT_USER) where some of the procedures create temporary tables to facilitate processing. These procedures run just fine when executed directly from within an anonymous block at the SQL*PLUS level. However, when I submit the procedures to the job queue (via DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT), the job is submitted successfully but fails when run. Investigating the Alert Log shows an error of insufficient privilege on the CREATE TABLE command in the procedure.
    QUESTION:
    Can I create a table from a procedure running in the Job Queue? If so, then how to get it to work? Does the job run in a different environment that needs Create Table privileges set to my schema?
    Thanks for any info you can provide.
    John

    FYI: Found the problem. In the Administrator's Guide (of course not in the supplied packages documentation about DBMS_JOB) I found:
    "How Jobs Execute
    SNP background processes execute jobs. To execute a job, the process creates a session to run the job.
    When an SNP process runs a job, the job is run in the same environment in which it was submitted and with the owner's default privileges.
    When you force a job to run using the procedure DBMS_JOB.RUN, the job is run by your user process. When your user process runs a job, it is run with your default privileges only. Privileges granted to you through roles are unavailable."
    And of course we had set up our users to get all privileges through Roles, so CREATE TABLE wasn't one of my DEFAULT PRIVILEGES!
    It sure would be nice if Oracle documentation could get its act together and provide ALL information about a topic in a logical place. The effort to find the information about privileges occurred after it took me 1/2 hour to figure out why my submissions were failing - I didn't have the ';' included in the quoted string for the procedure to be called - which I only figured out after looking at the code for DBMS_JOB where it made the note to make sure you include the ';'. Wouldn't it be good to have that MINOR DETAIL mentioned in the description of DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT?????

  • Can we create a developersite in O365 SP Online programiatically ? what is the template code for it ?

    Hi
    I am trying to create sites programmatically in O365 SharePoint Online. So, just want to know that can we create a DeveloperSite ?? what is the template code for it viz. Team site- STS#0, etc
    If possible provide me the MSDN link where I can refer for available site templates for O365 SP Online sites creation.
    Thank you 

    http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/61145.aspx
    Are you meaning to create sites on SharePoint Online by invoking web services in your own program? SharePoint Online indeed provide some web services for custom programming, however, the web methods for creating a new site seems not included in them. Here
    are some resources for the development of SharePoint Online for your reference:
    SharePoint Online for developers
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/gg153540.aspx
    Code example for SharePoint Online: Accessing Web Services
    http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/SharePoint-Online-0bdeb2ca
    As to create a site collection, the parameter "Template" is the name of the template you want to use, as to find the name of the custom site template, you can use the powershell command "Get-SPOWebTemplate",
    it will list all the templates with the names.
    Note, The Template and LocaleId parameters must be a valid combination as returned from the Get-SPOWebTemplate cmdlet.

  • Can we create an Ad Hoc workflow from a GP task listed in UWL?

    Dear All,
    Can we create an Ad Hoc Work flow from tasks which are generated using Guided procedures? If UWL does not provide this information can we some how implement the concept of Ad Hoc work flow from each step? The advantage is that when a person gets a task in his plate, he can create an Ad Hoc Workflow to take care of the request within their respective department for reviews and sub reviews.
    Thank You,
    Mansoor.

    Hi Mansoor,
    In sub task, even itu2019s linked with main task you donu2019t have a link or any UI to interact with main process. For this reason, itu2019s not possible.
    There are standard process roles like Overseer or Owner and custom roles, that is who will interact with each action/block. Assuming you have a manager and a team that will interact with a step in your process, you may define the manager as Overseer and the team group as processor of this step. In this case, you donu2019t have a specific forward feature, but you will treat that defining a group as processor and everyone inside this group may complete the task. The manager, as overseer, can track the process without need "hands on" with that.
    Best Regards,
    Pedro Nunes
