Unable to Convert an HTML file to a SharePoint master page on team site

I have a team site in SharePoint server 2013 where I want to enable Design Manager. I have activated
SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure but I clicked on Convert an HTML file to a SharePoint master page under Edit Master pages, I get an error in my logs below, with
System.NullReferenceException occuring a few times. Has anyone encountered this error before?

Powershell, design manager, uploading html file not creating associated master page file

I am uploading a xyz.html file through powershell for 2 site collections, when .html file is uploaded and published it automatically creates xyz.master file. It is working fine for not publishing sites collection only, for publishing site collection .html file
is uploaded successfully but it is not creating associated .master file. If I close powershell console and run again it works successfully.
another interesting thing I noticed that if I specify "spadmin" account which I used to install sharepoint as site collection primary administrator, all works well, currently I am using "spsiteCollection" account for primary site collection
administrator and I am having above mentioned issue.
powershell script is also running with spadmin account.
I have ensured .html is checked in and publish properly, If I manually unpublish and publish .html file it creates .mater file. What could be the issue?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about upload html file to master page gallery.
I have used the PowerShell contains in the codeplex to upload the files to master page gallery, it works without any issue.
https://uploadmasterpages.codeplex.com/
You can check your PowerShell with this article, or use this bat file to upload directly to check whether it works.
Thanks,

If I understand what it is you want, open the PDF file in Preview and from the File Menu select Export as PDF. In the file selector there's a button labeled Show Details. Click it. Select encrypt, enter a password, and save using a different name. The new document will show a lock indicated it is passworded. Delete the original version.

Since pse 9 can only use up to camera raw 6.5 and the d600 needs at least 7.3 and the d800 needs at least 6.7, you can use the
8.6 adobe dng converter to convert those files to dng copies, which then pse 9 should open.

How to convert a HTML files into a text file using Java

Hi guys...!
I was wondering if there is a way to convert a HTML file into a text file using java programing language. Likewise I would also like to know if there is a way to convert any type of file (excel, power point, and word) into text using java.
By the way, I really appreciated the help that you guys gave me on my previous topic on how to extract tests from a pdf file.
Thank you....

HTML files are already text files. What do you mean you want to convert them?
I think if you search the web, you can find things for converting those MS Office files to text (or extracting text from them, as I assume you mean).

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message indicates it contains XFA forms

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message that pdf files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to the specified format.

Hi curtlea,
XFA forms are not regular PDF's but XML files in a PDF shell.
To create a word file from those files, you first have to flatten the XFA forms by printing as PDF with the Adobe PDF Printer.
Then you can save using ExportPDF the created static PDF as Word document.

Envy 5534 on MAC- print error message unable to convert post scrip file

New printer set up fine prints letter but when I want it to print a page with bar code on get error message :-
print error message unable to convert post scrip file
Can any one help please
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi @itsalex,
What type of bar code are you printing, and from what program? Just a thought, what if you print the barcode as an image, if you are not already? Try File>Print> Advanced> Print as Image> print.
If the issue persists, let's reset the printing system and repair the disk permissions; doing so may resolve the issue.
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer and add the printer back.
When you add the printer, please ensure you are using the HP driver.
Select Add other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer drive. In the screenshot below, you will see Airprint is auto selected, you can change it to the HP driver though.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Talk to you later alligator

Question about uploading design file when converting a html file to a master file in SP2013

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj822370%28v=office.15%29.aspx
Here there is a note saying "When you upload your design files, you should keep all files that are related to a single design in their own folder in the Master Page Gallery. When you copy your design folder into the mapped network drive, the Master
Page Gallery retains whatever folder structure you created."
What do they mean keeping in own folder in Master Page Gallery? All my design related files are in a single folder containing sub folders of images, css, js.. I copy this top folder to the http://ou.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/
This is also where I would copy my html file to first before converting to master file?
Thank you.

So I mapped to the server drive,
http://our.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/ successfully.
All my design related files are in a single folder containing sub folders of images, css, js.. I should copy this top folder
to thehttp://ou.domain/_catalogs/masterpage/
and also copy my html file to first before converting to master file. My question is do I copy all these files(including the html file to be converted to master) to that masterpage folder before following the instruction to go to SP site
setting and select and convert the html file? Or is there any other steps I should or shouldn't do.
Thank you.

Converting an html file with jsp contents to a text file for download

Hi guys,
I'm currently having troubles with downloading a .jsp file to a doc file.
The thing is i am able to download the desired file and make it as a .doc but when i open it with ms word 2007 i can only see the content of the html. The dynamic content generated from the database and reflected on the .jsp page that i suppose to download and convert to .doc file doesn't show.. I hope someone could help me... My servlet code is this:
public class FileDownload extends HttpServlet
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
try
String originalFileName="localhost:8080//Appsdev//reportresults1.jsp";
File f=new File(originalFileName);
System.out.println("THE 1st f:"+f);
response.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=tryreport.doc;");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=0");
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
FileInputStream inStream = new FileInputStream(f);
OutputStream outStream = response.getOutputStream();
int sizeRead = 0;
int size = 0;
while ((sizeRead = inStream.read(buf, 0, buf.length)) != -1)
outStream.write(buf, 0, sizeRead);
size += sizeRead;
inStream.close();
outStream.close();
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}

Hi BalusC,
sorry for the double post i'm newly registered and it's my first post before i was just reading other's threads.
well last night while i was reading and researching for a solution a came across this.
<%@ page language="java" contentType="application/msword"%> naturally for my other jsp pages, the contentType is text/html so when the page loads it display in the browser. But with application/msword when i direct the page to the jsp page that i want to download and set the contentType with that...it prompts a window like when you're downloading the one with the <open with and save as>. It works fine to, i was able to see the report that i have to download and it is formatted very much like what i am seeing on the browser. My only concern now is the file i am able to download is a .jsp file how could i change that to a .doc file and be able to see the same content like the one with the .jsp file that i have right now.... any help or examples would be greatly appreciated. I didn't use the servlet anymore because even though i am able to download there is no content the html parts only but iam able to change the extension for the file...thanks again! ^ ^

Converting an HTML file for use in browsers

Hi Guys and gals,
I am new to creating java programs to run within a Web environment - thus my reason for asking this question. I hope this is the apropriate forum to point this question to.
I have created an applet which is invoked inside an HTML file. The HTML is fairly simple, although it does pass a number of parameters for use within the applet.
I have run the HTML file within Sun's Appletviewer and it works fine. Now I need to convert the HTML for use in Browsers supporting Java 2.
What is the best resource to use to perform this conversion ? I understand some type of Converter or Plug in is available to perform this task. Can anyone help me out ?

The easiest way is to use SUNs HTML convertre program.
You can find the information about the JAVA plugin and how to create the HTML code at
http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/1.3/docs/html_converter.html
and

My last laptop crashed (pc) and I saved the harddrive but I was unable to export as .html file, just have long, several hundred list. I don't want to export one by one, what can I do?

My last laptop (os vista) died, all I could save was the hard drive. I was given an old spare by a friend (os xp) but my favourites are in one folder (plus the several subfolders I had arranged them in) which I've transferred, however the folder is not a single .html file. Rather all of them are arranged as their individual urls. There are hundreds, how can I import the lot? I don't have the time to do them one by one.
thank you

The photos are on the ipod. Photo sync will erase them. I need a way to extract them from the ipod, or to.extract them from the ipod backup that is who knows where on my PC.
I've been searching for an app to do that with no luck. They all seem to want a newer OS than is on my ipod yet I have the most recent update installed.

Can you change the permissions on a single html file in the root of a MOSS 2007 site?

I know what the right answer is, the correct way to implement this is to create a library off the root and place the file that needs to have unique permissions into this library and either change the permissions of the library or of the individual file itself.
Anyways, that's what we're going to do...
However, I'm curious... Is there a way to change the permissions of a file that was manually placed in the root of a MOSS 2007 site? I've tried through the GUI and through Designer, and also searched the WWW with no luck. Is this even doable?
We don't want to change the permissions on the entire site, just that one file.
Thanks,
-Richard.

Hi Richard,
I thinks the file on the root directory of a SharePoint site is unable to be set with a unique permission, SharePoint securable object are web, list/library, list/library iteml, as what you're going to do, the workaround is
to put the file in a libary and grant the unique permission.

Dear All,

That functionality isn't available in Foundation. You have to have SharePoint Server. Not sure why it isn't in Foundation, but I've checked in the past and its not available and there is no way to turn it on.
