Unable to Create Work Document in SharePoint 2010 by one user

Hi,
   We have a unique issue. One user in our organisation is not able to create Word Document in our SharePoint environments.
We have SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Edition and Office 2010 Professional Edition. This issue is faced by only one user in our organization. no issues for thousands of other users.
We tested with our multiple SharePoint environments of different type of web applications. No where user is able to create Word Document using New Document functionality.
User is able to create Excel, PowerPoint documents of all extensions. User is able to upload Word Document. User is able to Edit the existing word documents both in browser and Word client.
Since it fails in all SharePoint environments, I am suspecting some common failure point like User Profile issue, CAL etc. Any suggestions from experts like you is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sivanandham,
Could you please test two more options below with the user for narrowing down the issue scope?
Create a new content type inheriting from content type Document and then upload a new word file as the template to the new content type.
Change the word template for the content type with issue when the user creates a document from the content type.
Please also check ULS log for more detailed error for further research.
Best regards,
Victoria

  • Unable to create Accounting document for my Outgoing excise Invoice

    Dear All,
    I am implementing sales from Factory. I am unable to creat accounting document for my Outgoing excise invoice.  When I click the Utilization button, The excise invoice type is selected Deemed.
    1. How to control which Which Excise invoice type should be selected in J1IIN.
    2. For Deemed exports will system not genererate Accounting document for Excise Invoice?
    3. Where to view the excise invoice document types (Like Billing and order types)
    Thanks & Regards

    For deemed export sales,
    -Accounting documents will not get generated. (ref: Excise Acct Determination in CIN settings, you will not find Excise Tranraction type:ARE3 for which G/L account will not be assigned)
    -Excise Invoice type will be automatically triggered based on configuration : Excise Group / Series Group detetermination.
    - For Deemed Exports , only Quantity will get updated in RG1, but not the value. thats the reason, accounting document will not get generated.
    - This excise invoice is created, for - to update the RG1 registry / ARE3 creation.
    hope it clears

  • How to copy and paste the solution files of SharePoint 2010 from one machine to another machine?

    Hi,
    I was working with SharePoint 2010  in one of my Virtual machines.Now that the lease for my Virtual Machine is going to expire, I want to shift the entire contents of the project to another machine (local) with SharePoint 2010. Also, I want the pages
    in the other machine to be editable. 
    How can I copy the solution files to the other machine? And I want the exact path where the files are located, so that I can shift them to the other machine.
    Thanks in advance. 

    ...that's not a good approach.
    Deploying customisations can be as simple as files being copied onto the file system. Most of the time however there is a lot more happening behind the scenes and simply copying the files won't work.
    Also that is assuming that you mean solutions rather than the pages themselves (or the contents of document libraries) in which case you want to copy databases, not just files.
    SharePoint isn't a simple thing to move, you may need to look at this a bit harder.

  • Office 2013 vs SharePoint 2010 - Unable to check out documents to SharePoint drafts folder

    My company is foisting Office 2013 on us without upgrading SharePoint 2010 Enterprise. One of the issues I have discovered since receiving Office 2013 is that SharePoint no longer provides the option to save checked out documents to my local drafts folder.
    This is despite having Office set to save checked-out files to the server drafts location and the Office Document Cache Handler enabled in IE9. Is there a registry setting or something I can change that will re-enable this feature?

    Hi Nellie,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to re-enable the add-on Office Document Cache Handler in IE9.
    We can re-enable the add-on in IE9 using Group Policy:
    Launch the Group Policy Editor. 
    Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Security Features > Add-on Management > 
     Add-on List.
    Set this policy to 'Enabled'.
    In the Add-on List, add the CLSID of BHO (Browser Helper Object) (i.e.) {B4F3A835-0E21-4959-BA22-42B3008E02FF} as the ‘Value Name’ and 1 as the 'Value'.
    Log out of the machine and log back in again for the setting to take effect.

  • Unable to create system performance counter SharePoint Disk-Based Cache - SharePoint 2010 SP2 Farm

    Hi,
    I'm getting this in my Trace Logs:
    Performance Counter OS (pdh) call failed with error code PDH_CSTATUS_BAD_COUNTERNAME
    PDH failure on counter <serverName>\Sharepoint Disk-Based Cache\Blob Cache hit ration with Unknown error (0x0000bc0)
    Unable to create system performance counter <ServerName>\SharePoint Disk-Based Cache\\Blob Cache fill ratio
    Unable to create system performance counter <ServerName>\SharePoint Disk-Based Cache\\Total Blob Size
    There are bunch of them from SharePoint Disk-Based Cache counter that its trying to create but they cannot be used.
    I've logged on to the server as a farm admin, which has full farm permissions, local admin and runs OWSTIMER.EXE service, but I was not able to add the counters myself. I've read few posts here on TechNet but no one answered on how to enable/recreate these
    performance counters. I would like to resolve this if its possible.

    I could not find the reason why those SharePoint Performance Counters were not on the WFE servers so I just disabled the "Diagnostic Data Provider: Performance Counters - Web Front Ends" in the Central Admin > Monitoring > Job Definitions.

  • Unable to send mails from Azure SharePoint 2010 VM

    Hello All,
    I have created Site-to-Site VPN in azure to my on premise, and i have configured SharePoint 2010 environment in that. Then i have configured outgoing mail settings for a web application in that VM, but i am unable to send mails to external domain from it.
    But i am able to send mails from my on premise VMs to external domains. 
    Thanks

    Hey There,
    Azure does not support smtp relay, you may want to use SendGrid (which working with Microsoft Azure).
    After registration you get 400 E-mail per day free of charge.
    From technical aspects youll get SMTP server, Username & Password which you can fill in your application.
    Hope it helps.

  • Unable to open Office files on SharePoint 2010 sites on Windows Server 2008 R2

    Setup: Windows SharePoint Server 2010 sp1 on Windows Server 2008 R2 (hosted on VMWare VSphere ESXi 5.1)
    Secured using Domain SSL from GlobalSign.
    Client OS: Windows 7 Professional 32bit & Windows XP SP3 32 bit
    Browsers: IE10, IE9,IE8
    Office: Office 2010, Office 2010 sp2 (both 32bit), Office 2007
    Problem Description: Only recently, users started having issues with opening Office files (Word, Excel) on SharePoint sites. When you click on an Office file e.g. Word Document, it comes up with the option to select "Ready only" or "Edit"
    and choosing either options and re-entering the login credentials results in the
    application hanging. If you leave it for a while (about 5 minutes) sometimes the file opens and other times it gives the error "Could not open https://portal.com/XXX/XXX/Document.docx". Even when it opens, it's extremely
    sluggish and can't do anything other than end it via Task Manager. Same with excel files. 
    This happens to all the users all different OS and browsers.
    On XP Pro SP3 w/ IE8, when you click on the file, the login prompt keeps popping back up repeatedly and if you click cancel, the file loads up anyway but no way of saving back onto the SharePoint site.
    IMPORTANT: One exception is when logged in as a Site Collection Administrator, it
    works like a dream bizarrely!!!! Opens, Edits and saves back fine on the SharePoint site.
    Have tried following:
    1. Repaired Office 2010 Pro; Uninstalled/Re-installed Office 2010 Pro
    2. Reset Browser, unticked automatically detect proxy settings.
    3. Emptied OfficeOfflineCache on Client
    4. Removed WebDAV from the SharePoint server
    5. Added Antivirus folder exclusion (We use SEP 11) on the SharePoint Server
    Note: PDF files opens fine for all users.
    I would immensely appreciate if anybody has got any advice/pointers/suggestions. Desperately out of ideas at the moment.
    regards,
    Compter Sez No!

    Hi,
    According to your description, When you try to open a Microsoft Office document from a SharePoint 2010 site in a client application, the document opens slowly and you are prompted to enter your credentials multiple times.
    This issue may be because of SharePoint Web Front End (WFE) server(s) has Antivirus software installed and the exceptions are not set correctly.
    I recommend to remove the antivirus software or set the correct permissions for the antivirus software to resolve the issue.
    To configure the antivirus exceptions, please follow the guidelines in the below articles:
    KB943620:
    Folders to exclude when you perform a file-level antivirus scan on a server operating system.
    KB952167:
    Certain folders may have to be excluded from antivirus scanning when you use a file-level antivirus program in SharePoint.

  • Unable to modify any documents from sharepoint

    We are using Office 2007 and WSS3.0 whenever I try to open a document from sharepoint I get the following error as shown in the image.
    Link to access the image:
    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/148/officesharepointerror.jpg/
    I can upload documents to sharepoint but cannot edit them.
    I have repaired and reinstalled Office 2007 to no avail. I am not a Sharepoint admin so I cannot perform any administrative changes to the Sharepoint site. I have a contributor role to the Sharepoint site.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi,
    Not exactly the same error we had here, but users were able to upload docs, but not edit. Re-ran the webfldrs.msi and it fixed the issue. If your error is affecting everyone, then this may not be your fix.
    Unable to edit Documents in SharePoint
    Error
    User get s the following error message
    “a problem occurred while connecting to the server” if the problem continues, contact your administrator
    Solution
     Well it worked today for Jo Mallett, when all the windows updates, profile rebuilds and office installs didn’t, and this fix took no more than about 1 minute to implement.
    It is not uncommon for the web folders / WebDAV support in Windows XP to just stop working for no apparent reason.
    You can usually reinstall the original Web Folders support by finding and executing
    webfldrs.msi with specific options.
    webfldrs.msi is probably in one of your system directories. It is easiest to search for it (remember to set advanced search options to include system and hidden folders). When you find the program (it’s a normal Microsoft install package) launch it, then
    do these steps:
    Click “Select Reinstall Mode”
    Uncheck “Repair all detected reinstall problems”.
    Check “Force all files to be reinstalled, regardless of checksum or version”.
    Check “Verify that required user registry entries are present”.
    Check “Verify that required machine registry entries are present”.
    Check “Validate shortcuts”.
    Press OK
    Click REINSTALL
    Normally no reboot is required.
    Now the web folder client should have been restored as it was shipped.
    If you previously installed Software Update for Web Folders (KB907306) from the Microsoft site, you may have to install it again.

  • Content Search and not the document in SharePoint 2010

    Hi,
    The requirement is : Search the content of documents by storing the data in a database-driven structure and get the search results in a grid view with data in different columns. My questions are :-
    1) Can we store complete content of the word document in a separate database (other than content DB of site collection) or in list/library and show in search results/SP search result page ?
    2) Can we convert the existing documents in XML format and save it SharePoint ? Will that content be visible in Search results  ?
    3) How can we modify search page to have check box before every search result ?
    4) How can we export the selected search results in an excel file ?
    Any help will be highly appreciated !!!
    Vipul Jain

    Hi Inderjeet,
    Thanks for the reply. But the client's existing documents are in .doc (Word 2003) format , which is not an open-xml supported format. So the first step would be -
    Q1) How can we extract the content from word documents ?
    The existing documents are based on a standard corporate template (.dot). These documents are having very heavy content , for example, resume document of an employee, having 20 experiences in very big paragraphs in text format.
    Q2) Can we store such large content (experience/qualifications/professional licenses etc) in SharePoint list/library columns ? If yes , which column type will be used...  
    Its true that we can convert the existing documents in XML and then the content will be searchable in SharePoint 2010.
    Q3) Can we customize the search page to that level that it can give us results in a grid view having different columns , and user can select the multiple search results and create a document dynamically based on those selected search results.
    I Know anything can be done using customization's (.net C#)..I just want to clarify for SharePoint search page. If yes , then there will be no need to store the document contents in a separate SQL database.
    Kindly reply.

  • InfoPath 2013 customized forms no longer working after linking Sharepoint 2010 list to MS Access 2013 database

    Hello,
    I am having trouble with my infopath form now that I have linked my Sharepoint list to an Access database.  
    Background:  I created a simple SharePoint list and a few workflows to have users submit requests for changes to my organization's EMR system and have those requests be approved by the appropriate manager/department.  I used
    InfoPath to customize my form so that it would hide/show different portions depending on what the user selected.  The form has 3 views: NewItem, EditItem, ViewItem. 
    Issue: The form and workflows were working great until I linked my SharePoint list to an access database so that I could run queries and reports using that information. Now when I click "Add New Item" on my Sharepoint site,
    the correct form opens but the fields do not allow me to input any data and some of the formatting for the form has changed (ie: the text boxe fields are no longer centered.  I opened the form in InfoPath and it displays perfectly fine in there but
    not once it's published to the site) . 
    The only way that I've been able to input new data is using Datasheet view in SharePoint.  
    Is there a way to fix this issue?  I really need to be able to have the customized forms for users to fill out the information since most users are not familiar enough with SharePoint to expect them to be able to use Datasheet view to submit their requests. 
    Again, I'm using InfoPath 2013, Access 2013 & SharePoint Server 2010
    If the issue cannot be fixed, how can I disconnect or unlink my SharePoint list from the Access database because when I cliecked on "delete list" from inside Access, a warning popped up stating that it will also delete the list off of SharePoint
    as well.  If I can get the list back to the state it was in before linking to Access then I'll be happy enough to export it excel and then importh the excel file to Access as a work around for reporting purposes since I don't have to run the reports that
    often. 
    Any insight would be very helpful!!

    Hi Bostic,
    I tested the same scenario per your post in my environment, however the InfoPath form was not affected if I used the list as external data in Access database.
    The issue may be due to the browser you used.
    I recommend to verify the things below:
    Change another browser to see how it works.
    Add the site to the trusted zone and add to compatibility settings in Internet Explorer.
    Test with a new list to narrow down the issue scope.
    As a workaround, you can save the list as a template including content, and then create a new list based on this template.

  • Error creating subsite from template - SharePoint 2010

    I appreciate the help from anyone who can help in my situation.
    I am trying to create a subsite whose parent is a SharePoint Server 2010 website. When I'm doing that, I go to:
    Site Actions > Create > Sites and Workspaces
    My purpose is to create a subsite using the "Web Databases > Issues Web Database" template. When I do that, the page tries to create a website for a long time, and when it finishes, the following error message page appears:
    Preparing Site ...
    Someone has recently made changes to this site and the site is being updated. If the site remains offline for an extended period of time, contact a site owner. Wait
    a moment and refresh your browser
    However, when I use another template, say "Collaboration > Team Site", such website is created successfully and is fully functional.
    Can anybody help me with this issue? My vast expertise in SharePoint extends to one week. I have no idea how to figure this out.
    Thank you so much for everything! Have a great year.

    you have to create access service application. See below
    You have to make sure you did the following:
    Created a Access Service Application
    (Central Administration – Manage Service Applications – New – Access Services)
    Started the Access Database Service
    (Central Administration – Manage Services on Server)
    then open up the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell, and give the following powershell command: enable-spSessionStateService –DataBaseName <SomeNewDatabaseName>
    above command will create a session state database and turns on the session state service.
    Refresh your browser and you are  all set to go

  • The system Pages library and its RSS feed do not work properly in SharePoint 2010

    This question is about RSS feed for the system 'Pages' library in SharePoint 2010.
    Now there are 5 'News' pages in the system 'Pages' library. In each news page there is one field called 'Title' for the news title. One of the news page is named 'FileNamePage5.aspx', and the news title is 'This is the title of page5'.
    I have enabled RSS in Site Settings, and configured RSS Settings for the 'Pages' library from the Communications section via Document Library Settings. I selected a few columns to display in the RSS description, including the 'Title' column. In the RSS feed
    (XML file) of the system 'Pages' library, I checked the XML source code, and found the news page file name appearing in the <title> tag below within the feed (XML source code).
     <title>FileNamePage5</title>
    and the original news title 'This is the title of page5' was appearing in the <description> tag in the feed (XML sorce code)
     <description><![CDATA[<div> ... This is the title of page5... </div>]]></description>.
    This would make it hard to extract ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) out of the feed via XSLT, because the data within the <description> tag in the feed also contains data from all other selected columns defined via the RSS
    Setting. If I did not select the 'Title' column via RSS Setting above, I even could not find the orinigal news title in the RSS feed.
    This is happening for all other news pages in the system 'Pages' library. Is this what SharePoint 2010 normally does? or is something wrong with the settings for site or the system 'Pages' library?
    How to display ONLY the original news title (This is the title of page5) in the <title> tag in the RSS feed. Please Help me to resolve this issue.
    谢亚军@Sydney

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the value in Title column of Pages library in title tag in RSS Feed in SharePoint.
    I tested the same scenario per your post, the title tag in RSS Feed displayed the value of Name column in libraries and displayed the value of Title column in lists.
    It is by design and there is no OOB way to change the default column mapping in RSS Feed.
    I recommend to customize your own RSS Feed style sheet to make the title displays the value of Title column in SharePoint libraries.
    Here is a link about customizing the RSS Feed for document library for you to take a look:

  • Unable to check in PDF into SharePoint 2010 Enviroment with MetaData tags

    Hi we have a client that is modifying a PDF file and then wanting to update and check it back into our SharePoint 2010 enviroment.  We enforce a  MetaData (Term Store) Feild to this Document Library.  When Adobe trys to check in the file it bombs and freezes.  If we remove the feilds we are able to check in the document.   Attached is a screen shot of the Data Fields.   Its odd that Adobe Acrobat X adds a GUID at the end of the tag.   Is there currently a fix for this to allow adobe acrobat X to be able to check in the files with the MetaData Feild?  Also We have updated Adobe Acrobat X to the most current update.

    Hi ,
    It looks to be a case of indexer problem on your UCM environment . Enable indexer* tracing with full verbose and capture server output with a new excel file check-in .
