Sharepoint PeoplePicker cannot search account on 2nd Domain with 2 way trust

Hi all,
   I have run into this issue for 2 days, and cannot figure out why.
   We have 3 different Sharepoint environments, and we have two-way trust between 1st and 2nd domain.
   But, one of the environments cannot search 2nd domain in PeoplePicker.
   However, the other two environments didn't require any configuration to be able to search ppl on the 2nd domain.
   Is there anyone know what happened on the specific environment?
   P.S. That specific environment has two servers in the farm, and one of them can search the 2nd domain in PeoplePicker, but the other one cannot.
   Any idea? Thank you.
James

Hi,
The issue usually occurs due to invalid trusts between different forests or the incorrect property set using stsadm. By default the people picker would search for users from same forest as that of the SharePoint server. If want to find the users from other domain, you need to use stsadm to set “peoplepicker-searchadforests” of the people picker.
If the new domain is in the same forest as the domain in SharePoint server, try to run the command line: stsadm -o setproperty. If the two domains are not in the same forest, you must run the setapppassword operation, and then run the peoplepicker-searchadforests property
For more information, please refer to: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263460.aspx
Let me know the result.

Duplicate user account in multiple domain with samaccountname

I have list of users in CSV file and I have 4 domain in my single forest.
I wanted to all users mentioned in CSV are also exist in other child domain or not..
if exist same account name then I need output..
I am trying below command but its not giving me required information from all domain:
Import-csv user.csv | foreach {get-aduser $_.samAccountName -properties SamAccountName | select name,SamAccountName}
Please help me or guide me to get duplicates account with same samaccountname

If I understand correctly, you're taking the users listed in user.csv and using Get-ADUser to see if the user exists.
If they do exist you would expect an ADUser object, and if they don't you would expect an ADIdentityNotFoundException.
That said, you're not capturing the output of Get-ADUser. I would add found users to an array and then once I've checked all the users in the CSV I would create all the accounts that are not in the array. Alternatively inside the foreach I would add users
that don't exist and then deal with the duplicates afterwards. Careful when running the script again, you'll find all the users will have duplicates!

SharePoint 2013 - Cannot connect or Register WorkFlow Manager with error "The data or messaging layer is unavailable. Please retry after 300 seconds"

Hi
I have SharePoint 2013 farm and installed Workflow Manager 1.0 and configured it and have been runing fine for several months. I upgraded this farm to SP 1 and then started having some issue with publish WF 2013 with task in SPD.
I re-Registered using Register-SPWorkflowService command and that fixed the problem and WorkFlow Manager running again OK. It has been couple of monthle and now I am having the problem again but with a different error on SPD
So doing what I did before, I tried to re-Registered WFM but this time getting the error below
Register-SPWorkflowService : The data or messaging layer is unavailable. Please retry
after 300 seconds.
The only possible resolution that I found is to add the -AllowOAuthHttp in my Register-SPWorkflowService cmdlet but that didnot not resolve the problem. I tried that anyway eventhough we do not allow http.
I did some checking for status and configuration and Get-SBFarmstatus showing all WFM services are running OK
I browsed to the WFM server https://servername:12290 and get the same error
- <Errorxmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<Code>UnexpectedError</Code>
<Message>The data or messaging layer is unavailable. Please retry after 300
seconds.</Message>
</Error>
If anyone have advise / suggestion to resolve this issue, please share
Thanks in advance for all comments

Hi Swanl,
Please refer to the article below for troubleshooting actions for workflow manager:

No authentication prompt using DFS links to fileserver into another domain with no trusts between both domains

Users , Fileservers and DFS root with DFS links in Domain A all work fine.
each users from Domain A have also credentials and passwords from Domain B
There is NO trust between Domain A and Domain B, both Domains are in different site connected with VPN-tunnel.
Projectdata is stored at fileservers in both Domains. Now DFS links are added in the Domain A to a fileserver from Domain B
When users from Domain A connects to fileserver in Domain B first he/she gets a prompt to authenticated, then DFS link to the fileserver in Domain B work.
When users just use DFS link they get a prompt "not accessible" + "Logon failure unknown user or bad password"
No prompt is given to users from Domain A to enter the credential for Domain B.
We cannot created a trust between these 2 Domains due other policy's

Hi,
According to your description, there is no trust between domain A and domain B, right?
Based on my research, if there is no trust between domains/forests, then it is not possible
to share information across domain boundaries, because without trust, no authentication traffic can be passed across domain/forest.
That is why the user cannot access the file he has rights to access across domain.
Here is an article below for your references:

ISE 1.2 Authentication fails for 2nd AD domain with the forest trust relation

We are running cisco ISE 1.2, we have new AD domain with forest trust relation between both the new and the old. authentication to with the new domain fails.
Is there any requirements or configurations change needs to be done to make it success?

Use the license that is currently on your ISE. If your account has access to download the software, then you are good. The license will not change during the upgrade. If you are using ISE 1.2 Patch 8 or above, then you are using the same Base/Plus?Apex Licensing model.
If you are not yet on Patch 8, the you are using Base/Advanced and these will be converted during the upgrade.

SharePoint Foundation 2010: search error: "Your search cannot be completed because of a service error."

Hi,
I have SharePoint Foundation 2010 running on a single server with databases, with a second server in the farm serving as a 2nd app tier. Both server have the exact same versions of SharePoint loaded (according to the Central Admin site).
Whenever I try to run a search from any site in my SharePoint Foundation 2010 installation (in this example I typed "this is my query"), it hangs for 20-30 seconds while the IE status bar says:
Waiting for http://SERVER2010:80/tfs/SITE1/_layouts/searchresults.aspx?k=this%20is%20my%20query&u=http%3A%2F%2Ftfs2010db%2Ftfs%2FSITE1
Then it finally returns a results screen with an error that says: "Your search cannot be completed because of a service error. Try your search again or contact your administrator for more information."
Checking the SharePoint logs under C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS, the relevant entries say the following (items I deem important

Not sure what "resource limit is reached" actually means. This SharePoint installation is running under regular SQL 2008 R2, and the
WSS_Content database is fairly small (10gig). I've reviewed the Search Service, the process account running it, the
WSS_SEARCH index database, and verified that the Content database is using the proper index database. Everything looks like it should be crawling/indexing/working fine. But the WSS_SEARCH
database isn't very large, so I'm not sure if the crawling is actually filling it with anything.
Not sure where to start seriously troubleshooting this. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
The query ran in tens of seconds. This indicates that at some point a bad plan compiled and stayed in the cache.
It may have gotten there because the statistics were out of date.
A possible way to keep this from happening is to rebuild statistics with full scan more frequently.
Try free the proc cache and see the result.

PeoplePicker not showing domain accounts from other forest in two way trust

We recently moved from our old farm in domainA of forestA to a new farm in domainB of forestB. We also have an older farm in domainC in forestC. There is two-way trust between all these forests. By default, Peoplepicker-SearchADForests property is not set
to anything, so it will only allow forestB accounts to be looked up from AD. But, we want PeoplePicker to lookup users from both domainA and domainB. I used below script to update the settings.
$wa = Get-SPWebApplication -Identity "https://webapp"
$oldDomain = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPPeoplePickerSearchActiveDirectoryDomain
$oldDomain.IsForest = $false
$oldDomain.DomainName = "domainA"
$wa.PeoplePickerSettings.SearchActiveDirectoryDomains.Add($oldDomain)
$wa.Update()
$wa = Get-SPWebApplication -Identity "https://webapp"
$newDomain = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPPeoplePickerSearchActiveDirectoryDomain
$newDomain.IsForest = $false
$newDomain.DomainName = "domainB"
$wa.PeoplePickerSettings.SearchActiveDirectoryDomains.Add($newDomain)
$wa.Update()
For some reason, this doesn't work for domainA. Actually, it worked once before, but it stopped working at some point. PeoplePicker is only returning domainB accounts. If I add domainC using above script, it works too, but not for domainB.
So, my question is obvious - how to make this work? I've searched for an answer a lot and went through all troubleshooting there is, but could not resolve this permanently. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Vladimir. I was able to run it finally in CMD. Here are the results. Now I'm thinking that the ports are not open )) Trevor's app was probably checking the ports in domain controller servers, though not sure.

Cannot login to Windows 8 Domain PC with AD account

I have a Dell Inspiron 15Z which is joined to the domain. The laptop is running Windows 8. I am unable to login to the computer with any domain account (even accounts that have profiles saved on this device). I can ping the DC and I am able to login to the
DC with one of the accounts via RDP, so I know the account is not locked out. Just to be safe I reset the password for the account and still it gives me the "Incorrect password or username. Try again" error.
A little background:
I recently did a Windows Refresh on the computer due to some software issues. After Windows Refresh was completed I was able to login fine. But after a while it started throwing me the above error. I reset the password and was able to login under both accounts.
Now neither accounts work. My domain has two domain controllers, one is currently offline due to hardware issues.
I have used to lockoutstatus.exe tool to verify that the account is not locked out. I also verified that each unsuccessful attempt to login to the domain PC does not register on the Bad Pwd Count tab. I then entered in a bunch of garble for the domain account
and it did register bad login attempts so I know the domain is functioning correctly. I forced a gpupdate and I also forced a replication on the dc, still nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am able to login to the computer using local accounts and Microsoft accounts, but no domain accounts.

Since you did a refresh, then run Windows Update and install all updates. Try disconnect from domain and rejoin and check if problem persist or not.

SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App on Windows server 2012 R2 not working

Hi all,
I installed SharePoint server 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2 using VirtualBox. I created a DC(domain controller) server with a domain set up on one VM and it has SQL server 2012 SP1 installed. Then SharePoint 2013 on another VM
was set up to access the DC server. Everything seems working except Search Service App which cannot be sucessfully set up. Creation process for Search service app says Successful and 4 search databases were created and look fine. But when I navigate
to search service app admin page, it gives error info:
System status: The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component '386f2cd6-47ca-4b3a-aeb5-d9116772ef16' in search application 'Search Service Application 1' is
in a good state and try again.
Search Application Topology: Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running.

Since separate DC server and SharePoint server do not work, I installed SharePoint 2013 on DC server ( so DC server has everything on it now ) but it gives exactly same result. Later I installed SharePoint 2013 SP1 and still have the same problem
with Search Service app. I spent two weeks tried all suggestions available from Web and Google but SharePoint Search Service simply does not work. Config and other databases work but why Search Service has this issue seemingly related to search DB.
Could anybody please help out? You deserve a top SharePoint consultant award if you could find a solution. I am so frustrated and so tired by this issue.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App did not work on Windows server 2012 R2.
Please make sure you configure Search Service Application correctly. You can refer to:Create and configure a Search service application in SharePoint Server 2013
I recommend to created new Search Service Application, and made a full crawl. Then assigned the new SSA as the default SSA for webapplications. Finnlay checked the issue doesnt occur now,
If all search related components now are online, to keep the enviroonment clean, you can delete the old SSA.
Thank you for your understanding.

Sharepoint Server 2013 Search Issue

Hi,
running Sharepoint server 2013. search service application is not working properly. getting the below error message.
"Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running"
we have 2 tier sharepoint 2013 farm architecture. please find the below server details.
1. WFE & APP server (OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and RAM: 8 GB)
2. database server (OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and RAM: 8 GB)
I tried the following:
- installed the latest sharepoint server 2013 CU.
- OS is up to date.
- deleted and recreated Search Service Application
- The service account does have access to the search databases
- one account is used, domain\sp2013search, has all necessary permissions
Please help to fix the search issue.

Hi Raj0639,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you run SharePoint 2013 Search.
Firstly, please make sure that all servers are online, and connecting to others.
Please stop all search services on Manage services on server, then restart them. Please try to do as Amit said, compare the result.
If this issue still exists, please repair SharePoint 2013 under Control Panel, then compare the result.

Search account got - Insufficient sql database permissions for user. EXECUTE permission was denied on the object proc_Gettimerrunningjobs

Dear all,
I am troubleshooting a critical error showed up on Event log. It said:
Insufficient sql database permissions for user 'Name:domain\wss_search ....... EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'proc_GetTimerRunningJobs', database 'SharePoint_Config', schema 'dbo'
domain\wss_search is the default content access account. According to
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc678863.aspx I should not grant it the Farm Administrators permission.
In the Search Center I am able to search out documents as expected so I think the search service is fine. However I have no clue why this account is trying to access 'proc_GetTimerRunningJobs'.
Mark

Hi Mark,
This issue was caused by the search account’s permission. For resolving your issue, please do as the followings:
Expand your SharePoint Configuration database 'SharePoint_Config' and navigate to ‘proc_GetTimerRunningJobs’ under Programmability ->Stored Procedures
Right-click proc_GetTimerRunningJobs and choose Properties
Click on Permission on the left launch
Select the Search button and browse for ‘WSS_Content_Application_Pools’
Provide ‘Execute’ permissions for ‘WSS_Content_Application_Pools’
Click OK

SharePoint 2013 Server is uable to crawl sites in another domain which is trusted

Hello,
I have 2 SharePoint 2013 servers. The 2 servers are in different domains, domainA and domainB.
The domains are trusted. On one of the servers (Server A), I have set up enterprise search, where it is supposed to get search results from Server B in the other domain.
Local search results is working good, but Server A is unable to crawl sites on Server B.
I have a domain search account like domainA\SharePointSearch for SharePoint Server A and domainB\SharePointSearch for the SharePoint Server B.
This is used for the SharePoint search services. I have the website address for the sites that are on Server B in the list for SharePoint to crawl and index, but Server A is not finding the Server B and is unable to crawl the sites
on Server B.
Any suggestions on what I can do to get sites on Server B crawled and indexed from Server A?
Thanks,
Paul

Are you receiving errors in the crawl log? Does the crawl account in farm A have a
Full Read user policy on the web applications in farm B that you are crawling?

Cannot search for "@" symbol when using search function

I am trying to create a calculated column which extracts the domain part of an email address. My problem is that no type of search formula (SEARCH or FIND) seems to be able to recognise the "@" symbol so I get an error stating that
"The search TEXT provided to function 'SEARCH' could not be found in the given text"
Even more bizarre is that if I do just a general search in my table (CTRL + F from inside Powerpivot) it cannot find @ symbols either. Could someone please explain why PowerPivot cannot search for the @ symbol (I haven't tested others) and whether there
is a solution?
The formula I was trying to use was:
=SUBSTITUTE(A1, LEFT(A1,FIND("@",A1)),"")
Obviously with A1 replaced by the column name of where my email data is stored.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Both FIND() and SEARCH() should find the "@" in PowerPivot.
I have done it many times.
You probably have one row in your data set that doesn't contain "@". That will cause the error you describe and if one row in a Calculated Column causes an error, every row has an error if you do nothing to account for it.
Try wrapping your formula in an IFERROR([Your Formula], BLANK()).
This should allow it to run successfully on valid rows and will show a blank on any rows that are causing problems.
Once you identify the problem row (or rows) you can make a decision about how to deal with it.

Sharepoint Foundation 2013 On a SBS 2011 Domain??

I have an SBS 2011 domain with 2 servers(SBS2011 Premium) The SBS box acts as domain controller and the second server runs Server 2008R2 and has SQL 2008R2 on it for Dynamics GP and Dynamics CRM 2011 and hosts the Sharepoint Foundation 2010 Databases. Is
there a way that I can setup a Sharepoint Foundation 2013 farm. Currently both boxes are farm members in the 2010 farm. I would like to keep the setup similar but if I have to can I just run the farm on the 2nd server. Will it live side by side with the Sharepoint
2010 on the SBS box. What about Companyweb? Thanks in advance
Joe Powers

I guess SBS guys will be the right people to answer your query, please post you question on the below forum:
