Site search and web app search !

how can I get a one web app search function to search all the fields within the web app. It seem I need a search field for each data fiefield in the web app.
Ideally my clinet wants a holistic search so that it will search all content within the site - most of which is within web apps ?
also does anyone know hoew you can edit the the result results icon - so if the web app is a news instead on the box I could put a news icon ?

Liam, thanks for your response. Unfortunately, the client wants a single search in the header of the entire site that will search both pages and web app content (without missing the custom field data), So I guess i am/was looking for a work around rather than a replacement.

Host Header Site Collection and Web App Setup - Thoughts

I am trying to understand relation between AAM and web app extension .Please share your expert opinion. I have not seen any TechNet article talking about it clearly.
Here it goes: in 2010 it was recommended Not to use AAM with IIS bindings without extending the web application. This was mentioned in several TechNet articles also its a known “Mistake #4” on TechNet articles.
So question is, is that still the same case in 2013?
Most of the times it is recommended to remove web app host header from IIS if you are using this web app for HHSC, otherwise sites will not be accessible. I have find no issues by leaving web app host header and adding more bindings for host header site
collections any thoughts on this ?
Thanks.

Hi,
I found some articles for helping understand Extend web application and
Alternate access mappings.
“If you want to expose the same content in a Web application to different types of users by using additional URLs or authentication methods, you can extend an existing Web application into a new zone. When you extend the Web application into a new zone,
you create a separate Internet Information Services (IIS) Web site to serve the same content, but with a unique URL and authentication type. An extended Web application can use up to five network zones (Default, Intranet, Internet, Custom, and Extranet). For
example, if you want to extend a Web application so that customers can access content from the Internet, you select the Internet zone and choose to allow anonymous access and grant anonymous users read-only permissions. Customers can then access the same Web
application as internal users, but through different URLs and authentication settings..”
After you extend web application, there is a new site created in IIS but the content are the same. We extend it to a new zone for different authentication methods, so that we could support different security between Internet site, Intranet site and Extranet
site.
“Alternate access mappings direct users to the correct URLs during their interaction with SharePoint 2013. Alternate access mappings enable SharePoint 2013 to map web requests to the correct web applications and sites, and they enable SharePoint 2013 to
serve the correct content back to the user.”
AAM is to offer different urls to users to access one site. Sometimes the url of a site is not easy to remember , we could use AAM to create simple url.

Best Practice for Host Named Site Collections and Web Apps

Looking for advice on setting up the host named site collections. If I am reading many of the technet articles and blogs correctly I should 1) have only 1 top level web app for host named site collections and 2) not have a host header for that web
app. If that's correct I am looking for advice. We have 7 separate domains that we support in our farm. Currently each of those domains is divided into web applications based on the domain, *.contoso, *.trains.com, *.bakers.com, etc.
Is the concept now that all of the host named site collections fall under that one web app? How do we deal with the SSL for each of those separate domains which all have their own certificates?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
NLewis

Yes, for creating host named site collections, first you create a host header less web app and then create host named site collections under that web app. However this is only for the cases where all the host named site collections ends in one domain. So
you can create host named site collections as intranet.contoso.com, my.contoso.com, portal.contoso.com etc as they are all ending in *.contoso.com.
As per your environment, if you have web apps which caters to different domains like *.contoso.com, *.trains.com, *.bakers.com, you need to create separate web apps as they are all ending in different domains. Then you can have a separate wildcard SSL certificate
for each of those web apps.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Last Data Update in Visual Composer and Web App Designer

Hello,
We want to show the last data update in query result and we used 2
differents ways to do it: throught Web Application Designer (SP 12) and
Visual Composer (SP 10).
In query result of Web Application Designer, the last data update came
in GMT0 and in visual composer came ok (GMT - 3, that's our time zone).
This value (ROLLUPTIME) is taken out of the RSMDATASTATE table and this is used in SAPLRSMDATASTATE program, that is called by Web App Designer.
Why does the difference exist between: Web App Designer and Visual Composer for last data update?
So, I need more information how the Visual Composer brings the correct value (in our time zone) and Web App Designer in GMT0.

Pablo Moraes

Hi Mario,
Yes, i used the same user and the same query to access the information. But, how can i check the mapping from my VC user to the BI user?

Single form for secure zone registration and web app submission?

Hi
Is it possible to setup a form where a user can simultaneously register for a secure zone and submit a web app entry? The knowledge base / tutorials describe a two step process (web form for secure zone registration and web app input form for web app submission), but I would like users to be able to do both with a single form
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
mls

In order to have a customer create a web app item they must be logged into the secure zone already. I've seen some instructions on how to let users submit web app items outside a secure zone but that requires creating a dummy anonymous user and logging them into the secure zone via javascript. You could use this method and once it's submitted you'll have to manually attach the web app item to the correct user in the BC Admin. That might not work for you but you can read more about that at http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1784
You can't use the above solution with the current user's username and password because those tags are only available when the user is logged into a secure zone already. If your signup form needs to be filled out first, the user isn't logged in.
Your best bet is to have the public signup form redirect the user after submission to an "Add item" form you have created. Maks sure that form is in a secure zone so when they add the item it is attached to their account.
If you don't want to redirect them to a secure zone and want it more seamless you could try to use some javascript/ajax to submit the form via javascript and after the form is submitted, use the javascript code in the above to log them in (be careful to use the https://yoursite.worldsecuresystems.com url if you are passing username and password info gathered from your form to log them in via javascript/ajax). Once they are logged in via the javascript you can use more ajax to fetch a page's HTML that resides in a secure zone. This HTML returned from the javascript can be your "add web app item" form and since they were logged in via javascript (securely, right?) this HTML should contain the right information. Insert this returned HTML into your form container that held the original signup form and they can continue to add a web app item without having to log in.
This is theory and might work but you'll have to start experimenting with it via javascript. I haven't actually tried to do this so hopefully some other community members who might have tried this can weigh in here as well.
Good luck!

Adding videos to a BC site via a web app

I saw a MaxTempo template that people can use for their Business Catalyst site (http://www.tribevita.com/adobe-business-catalyst-templates/e-commerce/max-tempo-ecom) that consists of a web app that allows the adding and displaying of videos. I saw a video that illustrates how to do this, but not in detail. I would like to know how to add and display videos to a BC site by using a web app. Please help. Thanks.

To do this, you will need a fundamental understanding of how web apps work and function. Once you understand how they work, then you
can visualize the fields you will need to do this. You can also allow users to upload videos as well. YOu need to define the way you want it to work.
I would assume to create a video web app, you need to set your fields, for small thumbnail, large thumbnail, video player [text description large]
If you are embedding youtube videos then you can just copy paste the embed code into the video player field you define. If you have a custom player then it gets a bit tricky but not that complicated to do.
Hope this helps.

Access denied for all (most?) users in all site collections of web app

Hi,
I have a Sharepoint 2010 farm pre-SP1 (yes should be updated!) and for all site collections of a web app, all users are getting access denied.
Now in my title I said "most?" because I have found one user in another office who does not have this issue. This web app/site collections also do not go through f5 or any proxies.
Even if I add myself as a site collection admin via central admin, I get the same result. I've looked at everything, windows time on the server (not using kerberos), errors in event log (nothing), uls logs just say access denied (very helpful!), etc...
I can try what's suggested at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e66f1b09-605d-4546-a581-2a9283c238c0/access-denied-for-all-users-and-for-site-collections-owner?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious but when asking colleagues, there's been no
changes, let alone with those accounts? I can do a get on the property tomorrow to find if there is a value set first, however.
Any suggestions on this?

Hi,
Please try logging in the site with farm account.
If it works, please make sure you have superuser and superreader accounts in CA > Application management > web application policy. If not, please add both accounts with the powershell script in the article below, this can cause all users denied when
access the site:

Ssl and web app server: there's content which is not secure

Hello,
We have implemented ssl in our intranet site ( web front server, Web app server, sql server - everything ) .
Yet, In Https (and I.E) and document library , when I press the "..." , I get an warning: "only secure content is displayed" and the file preview doesn't show anything. If I select "show all content", the file preview shows
the file.
If I press "View in browser", I get the same message. If I press "show all content" I see the file, otherwise the file doesn't show.
Looking at the fiddler, it looks like some connections with the (sharepoint) application server aren't secured.
Sample unsecured http gets are:
http://ApplicationServer.mysite.gr/wv/ResReader.ashx?n=p1.img&WOPIsrc=http%3A%2F%Intranet%2Fsites%2FDNY%2F_vti_bin%2Fwopi.ashx%2Ffiles%2F42da77c08cd94b67a1c413ae39a71c58&access_token=eyJ0eBIgBigToken
http://ApplicationServer.mysite.com/wv/ResReader.ashx?n=p1.img&v=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000602&usid=5fae4f7f-d4d6-4a21-a465-2fe24ded9519&WOPIsrc=http%3A%2F%2FIntranetSite%2Fsites%2FDNY%2F_vti_bin%2Fwopi.ashx%2Ffiles%2F42da77c08cd94b67a1c413ae39a71c58&access_token=BIgBigToken
- this one is an image of the file.
Having these unsecure gets, I have problems accepting that the site is totally secured.
is the (sharepoint) application server the source of the problem?
Thank you
Christos

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to show all content after you implemented ssl in intranet site.
Please make sure you configure SSL correctly. You can refer to:
Configure SSL for SharePoint 2013
IE does provide an option which can be configured to automatically display all content, both secure and non-secure content, on web pages that come with mixed content.
You can display all mixed contents in IE to suppress and disable any warning message on secure and/or non-secure content.
More information:

BC webMarketing plan and web apps

I've just built a site in BC using web apps. The site was paid foryesterday, went for the webMarketing plan, and now access to the web apps have dissappeared. I thought I had the right plan as, on this page, http://www.businesscatalyst.com/pricing/monthly when hovering over the listed item "Built-In-Modules" it states that web apps are available to take your site to the next level. However, having done some further investigation into why I no longer have access I came across this page http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html and that lists them as only being available in the webCommerce plan.
This is all pretty annoying as conflicting information has been provided, and the hosting plan is going to cost double what I originally thought. Am I right in thinking I have been mislead here, or have I mis interpreted something?
Grant

Hi Grant,
Web apps and modules are seperate entities. It does not say web apps but modules.
You can clearly see in the webCommerce you have Custom web apps listed there.
The tooltip though is wrong, that does read incorectly and I have reached out to the website team to change that.
Wont be intended, it is a new site for them that went live before xmas and being in the industry we all know we spend a bit of time making a tweaks, fixes and changes for a bit of time after.
I am sure they will be very grateful for the good spot from yourself on this

HP Officejet 6500A Plus e-All-in-One Printer - E710n wireless print and web app problem

We have an HP Officejet 6500A Plus e-all-in-one Printer - E710n and run Windows 7 on our laptop.
I have run the wirelss setup wizard and have successfully connected the printer to the router, and both the laptop and printer are on the same network and have identical SSID.
However, we can not send any prints the printer wirelessly. We have to hook it up to the USB to do so. We are also unable to access our web apps; pressing the app button on the printer control panel brings up the following:
"Connection error. The printer was unable to connect to the server. Check your internet connection and try again."
I have run through the suggested solutions under "A Network Connected Printer Cannot Access Print Apps, Web Services, or ePrint" in the customer care help centre which didn't work, although when I tried to enter the IP address under IPv4 into the browser address bar it timed out. I tried the HP Print and Scan Doctor, but it returns a result that suggests everything is fine.
I turned off the firewall and tried again with no luck.
I really am at a loss now. Diagnostics say it should work, but it doesn't. Help!

Disable Bitdefender altogeher and try again.

Communication between applet and Web app (IE6 works IE7 doesn't)

I'm not 100% sure this is the correct forum to post this in, but as the communication is initiated from the applet I'm posting it here.
I have an applet that we are slowly breaking pieces out of into a web app.
The details are as follows.
The applet calls a servlet on the webserver with the following code.
URL url = new URL("http://.................");
ServletMessage message = new ServletMessage(url);
InputStream returnStream = message.sendPostMessage(sending);The servlet takes the user credentials and other info that was sent and authenticates the user and stores the info that was passed into the session on the web server. Then based on the users permissions and where they want to go in the web app the servlets redirect method calls
resp.getOutputStream().print("/AppName/appropriateServlet");This sends control back to the applet (including the url of the servlet that needs to be called) which then calls the appropriate servlet
container.getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL("http://.............." + returnURL), "Title");Now the problem is that in the first and second servlet the request.getSession() returns two different sessions when running under IE7. IE6 returns reference to the same session.
I don't know what has changed in IE7 but I was hoping somebody else has run into this, or can suggest a more appropriate forum to post this to?
Thanks

So the solution I came up with was when the applet jumps to the web app the first time instead of storing everything in session I store them in a map in the servletContext under their employee number.
I then send control back to the applet with the url they should call. When the applet calls the web app for the second time it includes their employee number as parameter in the url.
A Login filter then first checks to make sure it isn't on the first call, and checks to make sure they aren't in session... if so it pulls the map out of servletContext and transfers all the data back to the session and clears that user out of servletContext.
So it stores the user in the servletContext during the transfer back and forth, then back in session like normal.
I'm pretty sure it is going to work, but I can't test it because our mainframe test region is down which is what handles the authentication of the applet.

Stop a stand-alone and web app from starting in an App Server

I want to programmatically shut down an application from starting, e.g., mid-way in its start, if a certain condition is raised. I do not want code as System.exit(int) as this API will terminate the entire JVM and more than 1 application running in the JVM will be shut down. My goal is to stop the start process of only one application that is running in the same shared JVM. The JVM is running more than 1 application.
Obviously, throwing a Runtime exception (throw new RuntimeException())does not stop the application - application still gets started.
I want a solution that will work for both stand-alone application and a web application. However, if I have to use two different approaches (one approach for stand-alone, another for web), I will be fine with that approach.
I am using WebSphere 6.1 as application server.
Please suggest what are my options to stop the application from start for both stand-alone and web application.

There is of course no general solution to that.
Consider the following.
1. Initial thread starts 10 threads, and then it exits.
2. One thread determines that exit should occur.
3. How do other threads get terminated?
...and a web application.Conceptually that is a bit suspect. If you don't want it to run then the simple solution is don't install it. In general you don't want a web app to "exit" if a known error condition occurs. For example it shouldn't exit if the database connection fails but instead the behavior should change until the database connection is restored.

Difference between site.allowunsafeupdates and web.allowunsafeupdates

What is the difference between web.allowunsafeupdates and site.allowunsafeupdates? I have seen that for some cases both are used and in other cases only web.allowunsafeupdates are used..Please tell me the exact difference ASAP.

Yes.But see i tried this code also..working..
string filePath = string.Empty;
if (SPContext.Current != null && SPContext.Current.Web != null)
SPUser currentUserName = SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser;
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate
using (SPSite spSite = new SPSite(GetRootSiteCollectionUrl()))
// spSite.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
using (SPWeb spWeb = spSite.OpenWeb())
spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates
= true;
SPFolder list
= spWeb.GetFolder(spWeb.Url + AppConstants.ListUrl.ELC_MASS_USER_UPLOAD);
SPFile document
= list.Files.Add(Guid.NewGuid().ToString() + bulkUserUploadDto.Name, bulkUserUploadDto.DocumentUploadedFileData, true);
SPListItem listItem
= document.Item;
SPFieldUrlValue
fieldUrl = new SPFieldUrlValue
Description = bulkUserUploadDto.WebTitle,
Url = bulkUserUploadDto.WebUrl
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.WEB_URL]
= fieldUrl;
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.TITLE]
= bulkUserUploadDto.Name;
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.IS_REMOVE_EXISTING_USER]
= bulkUserUploadDto.IsRemoveExistingUser;
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.GROUP_TYPE]
= bulkUserUploadDto.DepartmentGroupType;
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.STATUS]
= AppEnums.JobStatus.New;
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.SITE_URL]
= bulkUserUploadDto.WebUrl;
SPUser user =
spWeb.SiteUsers[currentUserName.LoginName];
listItem[AppConstants.Fields.AddUserToGroup.UploadedBy]
= user;
listItem.Update();
filePath = document.Url;
spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates
= false;
// spSite.AllowUnsafeUpdates
= false;
return filePath;
Here i didnt use SPcontext and still it works without that.. :(

Your request has failed. please try again later for messaging and web app my verizon

>> Duplicate post removed to comply with the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service Please see Cannot view messaging on computer at my verizon all of a sudden. using messages <<
Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

I am having the same problem. It started on August 11, 2014. I get the "Your request has failed. Please try again later." message when logging into the Verizon Messaging web application.
Here is what I did to troubleshoot it:
I verified that I can log into the MyVerizon account successfully.
Verified that the feature was set up correctly.
Cleared cache and history on my browser.
Tried two different browsers - same result.
Tried a different computer - same result.
Tried from a mobile device - same result.
It is definitely on the Verizon end. I called their tech support and of course, got no results as usual.
Verizon creates and promotes all these features, you get dependent on using them, and they stop working. Then, of course Verizon can't resolve the issue. I'm shopping around when my contracts are up. For the premium price we pay for Verizon I would expect better stability and support in their service.

Site search and web app search !
