Strange issue in SharePoint Search

I just took over SharePoint farm from other admin who left. After that SharePoint search crawl broke. I recreated the SharePoint search with all the settings. But there is really strange issue happening now.
If domain A user log in to SharePoint and search, they see all the results, while users from domain B donot see any result. Why is this happening? Has anyone experienced this before?
Any help will be hugly appreciated.

Hi Adit,
Is SharePoint installed in domain A and domain B is a one-way trusted domain?
If yes, then the issue should occur because search results gets security trimmed while returning the results back to the domain B users.
I recommend to run the following Windows PowerShell command:
$searchapp = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
$searchapp.SetProperty("ForceClaimACLs",1)
A full crawl is required to enable the new ACL format across the content.

Sharepoint Search Service Application isn't crawling.

Hi all,
I am new to Sharepoint 2013 and I do not know how to troubleshoot the issue of sharepoint search service.
My issue is that the sharepoint search service application is not crawling. How can I know the reason of this error and how to fix this.
Please help me.
Thanks.

Hi Vishwajeet,
if you facing any problem in search you can Use the crawl log and crawl-health reports to diagnose problems
which is best recommended practices from Microsoft.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn535606%28v=office.15%29.aspx

SharePoint search issues for ananymous users.

Hi,
I am facing 2 issues with SharePoint 2010 search.MY requirement is to give anonymous access to my SharePoint publishing site with out showing the list views and View all Site content pages. For this we enabled Anonymous access on the site collection and
enabled the "viewformpageslockdown" feature. So end user is able to access the list items but not the views.Everything as expected.
But the problem came up with search.
First issue : The list items are not coming up on the search when I enable "viewformpageslockdown". If I disable this feature and crawl teh content,I can see the items in search. But my business users doesnt
want the end user to see views.They want the "viewformpageslockdown" feature enabled with search showing list items.
I proposed to use the list view web part in another Page of Pages library(since viewformpageslockdown doesn't remove access on pages library) so that content come up in the search. Unfortunately client wants the actual URL of the list item to be shown
in the search results. Can any one help to achieve both search and viewformpageslockdown on my lists???
Second Issue: When I search for a content in Document library,only the results to PDF or Doc file are returned.We need the item ULR also to be there in search.
Fo example my PDF is uploaded in a document library.
The view form for the item is http://xxxx.com/en/publications/_layouts/forms/Publication_DispForm.aspx?List=4f55ad51-4aed-4d32-b960-af70113dbb90&ID
The URL for the PDF that is uploaded against the above itme is http://xxxx.com/en/publications/Publications/Amar.pdf
Search is returning only the PDF U|RL but the line item URL. Incase of lists,the line item URL is coming.IS there any way I can shown line item URL also in search as another result apart from the document.

Hi,
According to your post, when you set anonymous access to your SharePoint publishing site, you got two issues.
the first issue is when you disable "viewformpageslockdown” feature, all your lists will be accessible to anonymous users
by default. Otherwise, what you want is to give anonymous uses access to your SharePoint publishing site without showing the list views and Viewing all Site content pages.
Following the below
link about how to allow anonymous users to access list items on a publishing site in SharePoint 2010:
https://knowledge.zomers.eu/SharePoint/Pages/Allow-anonymous-users-to-access-listitems-on-a-publishing-site-in-SharePoint-2010.aspx
For your Second issue, I have done a test in my SharePoint 2010.
In SharePoint 2010, When I search for a content in Document libraries of all the sites, only the results to PDF or Doc file are returned. And item ULR are not returned.
it's supposed to be by default.

Acrobat - Convert Office documents to PDF so that it is crawled/indexed by SharePoint search

Hi there,
This is a hybrid question between Acrobat and SharePoint and I'll post on both forums....
Background:
In a fairly complex application we have a publishing server that utilizes Acrobat to convert Office documents to PDF using the Convert to PDF functionality.
We then publish that PDF to a library in SharePoint. We would like to have those published PDFs searchable by SharePoint search. Unfortunately there is something about these PDFs where SharePoint cannot crawl the content.
Note: I do realize that PDFs are not indexable by SharePoint out of the box and I have installed and configured the iFilter utility. I have been able to index and search for other PDFs, so I know the mechanism works. It just seems to be these
particular PDFs.
I have also manually "Saved as PDF" directly from Word/Excel and those PDFs are crawled by SharePoint....it just seems to be when Acrobat does its conversion. I'm sure it's just a simple configuration somewhere... I just don't know what I'm
looking for.
Another note: When I open the published PDFs, I am able to use Acrobat's search to find the text.... and the text is selectable; so it's not as if the conversion changed it to an image.
So....would anyone happen to have encountered this issue? Or does anyone know what makes a PDF indexable by SharePoint search?
Thanks in advance

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that the PDFs which are converted from Office documents by Acrobat cannot be crawled in your SharePoint 2010.
For your issue, please make sure these PDFs version is 1.5(Acrobat 6.x) or above.
You can take steps as below for verifying:
Open your PDF using Adobe Reader.
Go to File -> Properties.
Check the PDF Version under Advanced section.

Strange issue when pausing LONG audiobook--pressing play again changes the

Strange issue when pausing LONG audiobook--pressing play again changes the position within the book--it doesn't start back exactly where it left off.
The audiobook of "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" is between 18 and 19 HOURS long--all as one long track/file.
I've noticed that when I pause while listening and then press play again, it "rewinds" and starts playing portions of the audiobook from about 10 minutes prior--but the time stamp doesn't change. At least this is the time frame from the first "test". Other pauses/plays may result in different time differences.
The first time this happened, I didn't realize what it was doing. I pressed play (from the pause) and I heard a portion that I had already played. I thought that the bookmark just didn't "remember" as it should have, so I scrubbed forward trying to find where I remembered leaving off. If you end up pausing/playing even a couple of times with this happening each time, the portion of the audiobook that you're playing and the time stamp becomes COMPLETELY off! For example, almost an hour into the time stamp was really only about 10-15 minutes into the actual book.
I'm not sure if this makes any sense, but hopefully it does to someone. It's very frustrating to have this happen simply because you had to pause while listening. You have to scrub backwards or forwards each time to find out where you REALLY left off at and the time stamp becomes of no help value since it doesn't change as the playback position moves itself.
I'm sure that this is something happening due to the extreme length of the audio file. That maybe it can't track as precisely as it could with shorter lengths. ???
Any ideas? Has anyone else seen this happen? Any ideas on whether or not there is anything that can be done to prevent this?

I'm glad that I'm not the only one having this
problem. It's ironic that we're both having issues
with the SAME audiobook. I haven't had a chance to
listen to Books 1-5 much to see if they have the same
issue or not--I don't remember any on the few parts
that I've played for my nephews.
Yeah, I know! I was shocked to see that. I recently finished HP5 (twice), and NEVER had this issue, but it is a much smaller file size.
I'm thinking that I may try to convert to AAC before
I try the splitting program--in theory, it's easier
to start right back in again when you only have 1
track to find, than when you have dozens/hundreds of
smaller tracks. It's sometimes hard to remember
which track you left off with--even if it's
"bookmarked" within that track.
I dunno anything about AAC, to be honest. Never used it. My plan is to split the MP3 into smaller MP3s by chapter and load them on a playlist. Of course, I will have to label them all nice and pretty. It is a long book, but you could always just load a couple of chapter files at a time. The only thing that I can see that would be kind of a pain about splitting it with the Cool MP3 is searching thru the file for each chapter and setting break points.
My only concern is how much quality I'm losing by
converting from one compressed format--MP3--to
another compressed format AAC.
Yeah. Ew. No clue. Sounds unpleasant to me. Again, I really do not do anything with AAC.
I suppose, since it's
spoken word instead of music, the change shouldn't be
too noticable. I'm not sure what kind of time frame
it'll require to convert. I'll probably try it with
book 1 first--since it's the smallest.
May depend on the program. The one I got boasts no quality loss. You may wanna scrounge around the download sites and see which one sounds like it has the best features, even if you do just get a free trial version of something. I would definitely read the editor's ratings. I tend to trust that more than the typical end user's. They show how many stars the editor gives a product, and you can click that for the review, or sometimes they have labeled tabs where you can access the review.
As for how long it takes me to rip that particular file and if that actually fixes the scrubbing problem, I will have to let you know tomorrow. WAAAAY past my bedtime!
Keep me updated on your end. I sure which that there
was an explanation for why it happens.
Will do! I am thinking you hit the nail on the head with the length. That was exactly what popped into my mind when I figured out what the goofy thing was doing.
Talk to you later!

Issues with SharePoint 2013 after upgrading from windows 2012 to 2012 r2

We have a Sharepoint with Sp1 environment on windows 2012. Recently we upgraded the windows 2012 to 2012 r2. After the upgrade sharepoint environment is completely unstable.
At first all the sites returned 401 errors. After resolving by resetting the object cache accounts the sites are back.
Then i see that none of the performance point dashboards work. I figured that claims to windows token service is defaulted to local system account. I previously configured with a domain account. I reconfigured to work with domain account.
All the dashboard pages throw error.
Some Error logs:Failed to get document content data. System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): Cannot complete this function at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSqlClient.GetDocumentContentRow
Application error when access /Dashboards/Performance Dashboard/Main.aspx, Error=The EnableScriptGlobalization property cannot be changed during async postbacks or after the Init event. at System.Web.UI.ScriptManager.set_EnableScriptGlobalization(Boolean
value)
4. I tried to create a new dashboard and this time the performancepoint designer wont launch. After some troubleshooting i see that c2w host file didnot have the caller C:\Program Files\Windows Identity Foundation\v3.5.
I added <add value="WSS_WPG" /> and now it launches
5. Now the Dashboard launches and peruser identity works without having kerberos enabled at IIS. I have all the spn and required delegations setup for this url . But i did not configure at the IIS level
yet.
It looks like lot of things got messed up and reset. Can we upgrade to windows 2012 r2 with a sharepoint application inplace. what is the recommended approach and Whats happening with Performancepoint dashboards. IS there a known issue with sharepoint 2013
sp1.
Raj-Shpt

Thanks for the above article. Few issues are solved . One of the main issue is with Performancepoint Dashboard.
I have all the spn and required delegations setup for this url . But i did not configure at
the IIS level yet. Still per user identity works without having kerberos enabled at IIS.

Strange issue with WEBI schedule Report

Hi All,
I have a strange issue with schedule WEBI reports, a schedule report runs for Hours , i reschedule it again by deleting the instance and the schedule report never got succeed even after running for hours.
Any idea???
regards

Hi Manoj,
1. Try to put some filters in the report and then run the report. if it takes less time, then probably your query is fetching very large data.
2. MDX query error may be the reason , this error come when a query runs endless, please try running the query 2-3 times, or when load on server is less.
Hope this will help,

Files transferred to external HD end up in trash - very strange issue

Hi,
I seem to be having a very strange issue, hopefully somebody can help or has seen this before.
Hardware: MacBook Air, Western Digital Passport external HD, 250gb, formatted NTFS.
Software: OSX 10.7 Lion, Paragon (allows me to write to an NTFS formatted HD)
Issue Summary: I copy something to the external HD; I empty trash; the file I copied is deleted from the external HD. It doesn't happen every time.
I do also seem to have a persistent folder in trash called "WD Sync Data" that won't go away unless I re-delete it as it's also in the root of the drive. Not sure if this is related somehow.
Recently I copied 3 video files inside a folder to the HD, then disconnected the HD. When I reconnected it a while later and noticed that inside the "WD Sync Data" folder in trash were the 3 files I'd copied. I then looked inside the same folder on the root of the drive and the files were there, instead of inside the folder that I'd copied to the drive, which had vanished. If I hadn't noticed and had emptied the trash, those files would've been deleted.
It's definitely happened more than once; last time I actually deleted the files from my computer after copying, then emptied trash, and they were gone from the external HD also.
I've only found one person who seemed to be experiencing a similar problem back in 2010. It sounds similar though it could've been user error: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-notebooks/188224-weird-external-hard-driv e-trash-problem-help-please.html
Has anyone experienced this or have any suggestions?

Quick update: I ran a verify then a repair in Disk Utility as there were a couple of errors. Hopefully this has solved the issue, however it'd still be interesting to know if anyone's come across this before and what caused it?

Oracle Identity Manager 9.1.0.2 & WebLogic Strange Issue

Hello,
I am running OIM 9.1.0.2 (new installation) and WebLogic 10.3.3 in a clustered environment. I am having a strange issue where the resolution is eluding me.
This install is running on Windows 2008 x64 Standard and using the x64 JRockit Java.
What's happening is when I configure the managed server to run as a windows service, OIM isn't detected on the server. I can bring up xlWebApp but an unable to log into that or the Design Console. When launching the Diagnostic Dashboard it statest that OIM isn't installed.
If I stop the service and log into WebLogic and start the managed server from within the Admin Console in WebLogic, everything works just fine.
Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this and ultimately resolve this? The service correct startes the managed server as I can watch it start up in the admin console but when it starts that way, OIM isn't detected. Very odd.
Thanks,
Andrew

Oracle confirmed with us that it is certified for 10.3.3 though it may not be published yet.
At any rate I figured out the problem today. The script I used to create the service was missing the JAVA_OPTIONS section from the xlStartManagedServer.cmd file. Once I added that and re-created the service, all is well.
Thanks

Windows Vista and BPS0 - Strange issue

I just got a new HP Pavilion laptop with Vista and I have a strange issue:
All transactions work (SE80, RSA1, ...) except BPS0. The moment I enter TCode BPS0, I get completely logged out (all sessions). No error messages, no dumps. It just logs me out silently.
Is this happening only to me?
I use Windows Vista Home Premium edition and AMD Turion processor 64x2.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

Strange issue with RAM upgrade: It works but it doesn't! Please help.

Hello Everyone,
I have a very strange issue with my iMac since upgrading my RAM from 4 to 12 gig. When I first installed the new RAM it booted up and ran great. The next time I went to boot the iMac up it swtiched on but didn't get as far as the first white boot up screen. I tried turning it off and on a few times using the power on/off button but still no success. I decided to remove the RAM and reseat it. The computer then booted up again fine. Here's the problem though: when I went to switch my iMac on the next day it wouldn't boot up. Again, I took the RAM out and put it back in and the iMac booted up fine. I've checked the status of the RAM in the system profiler and it reports that everything is OK. So, I'm at a loss. Obviously, I don't want to go through this process every time I want to start up my Mac. Any ideas/solutions would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance.

I completely agree with you. It will be one of the 3 issues you outline. The machine was bought brand new and has never given me a problem. It is just the introduction of the new RAM that has started a problem. However, I did just risk a restart and it booted up fine. I don't know if a restart is any different to shutting down and then pressing the on/off button to start the computer. Maybe my last reseating has done the trick or maybe my thinking is flawed because restarting involves a different process to booting up by pressing the on/off button. I don't know.
In the part of the world I'm sitting in it's night time now so I will leave the diagnostics running and check the results in the morning. I hope the issue is now resolved anyway. This sort of thing takes me back to my dark PC days although in this case I know it's probably not the Mac's fault.
Thanks again. Very much appreciated.
