User Profile Service and Sync Service

I will be using Active Directory security groups to manage my SharePoint 2013 internal and external users. These groups will be put into SharePoint Groups. Is User Profile sync required to insure group members stay in sync between our 2 ADs and the SharePoint
resources or is AD checked whenever a user accesses a resource?
Love them all...regardless. - Buddha

The groups that users are a member of will be included in the user's token during authentication. But SharePoint does use the User profile sync to identify AD groups that are used by the users. So User Profile Sync is a necessary part of the
whole process.

User profile vs Remote Desktop Services Profile

On a Windows 2008 R2 Domain Controller, if you open properties of an user account, you'd see
a Profile Tab as well as Remote Desktop Services Profile Tab.
I found this very confusing, can any one tell be the key difference between those 2?
If I don't specify Remote Desktop Services Profile path, when I logon to Remote Desktop Server, it seems take user's
romaing profile.
Anyway, please advice.
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
The profile tab of the user properties window allows you to configure user profile, logon scripts and home folder details for the user object. It is very useful when you have to allow your user access the same environment and data irrespective of the machine
he logs in from.
Active Directory User properties – Profile tab
Remote Desktop Services User Properties
You can specify a Remote Desktop Services-specific profile path and home folder for a user connecting to an RD Session Host server. This profile and home folder will only be used for Remote Desktop Services sessions. You should assign a separate profile for
Remote Desktop Services sessions because many of the common options that are stored in profiles, such as screen savers and animated menu affects, are not desirable when using Remote Desktop Services.

Down loading Microsoft Office update get error message to close applications microsoft database daemon and sync services agent

when downloading microsoft office update get message to close microsoft database daemon and sync services agent. Shouldn't these be closed automatically? I try to close them, but the message still says they need to be closed. Help!

Are you using Outlook 2011 or Outlook 2015? I don't seem to have any relevant sync settings under Preferences -> Other in Outlook 2015.

Microsoft database daemon and sync services agent will not close by force. What do I do?

This is completely irritating. To find answers, I have read previous posts about quitting Microsoft database daemon and Sync services agent to no avail. Anyone have an answer to quitting both applications? I am trying to update Microsoft Office.
Thanks a bunch.

Hello
This forum is for troubleshooting Apple Software Update for Windows, a software package for Windows designed to update Apple products that run on Windows, and not related to Microsoft Office or your question in any way.

Diff b/w Web service and window service

What is the difference between web service and window service, whether the both are same or not, Give some explain about that each one and give some examples also.

An XML Web service is a component that implements program
logic and provides functionality for diseparate
applications. These applications use standard protocols,
such as HTTP, XML, and SOAP, to access the functionality.
XML Web services use XML-based messaging to send and
receive data, which enables heterogeneous applications to
interoperate with each other. You can use XML Web services
to integrate applications that are written in different
programming languages and deployed on different platforms.
In addition, you can deploy XML Web services within an
intranet as well as on the Internet. While the Internet
brings users closer to organizations, XML Web services
allow organizations to integrate their applications.
A Windows service starts much before any user logs in to
the system (if it has been setup to start at boot up
process). A Windows service can also be setup in such a way
that it requires a user to start it manually ? the ultimate
customization!
Windows services run as background processes. These
applications do not have a user interface, which makes them
ideal for tasks that do not require any user interaction.
You can install a Windows service on any server or computer
that is running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows NT.
You can also specify a Windows service to run in the
security context of a specific user account that is
different from the logged on user account or the default
computer account. For example, you can create a Windows
service to monitor performance counter data and react to
threshold values in a database.

RMI Service and FR Service abrupt shutdown

Hi guys,
I got problem with my BI 931 services, and it's weird since the behavior is randomly happen.
The FR Server services and RMI services sometimes abrupt shut down, this is development server so the users are minimal (some cases no one using it at all).
The architecture is like below (all of them are VMWares)
1 essbase 931 server
1 HBI Services server + SQL Server 2000
1 HBI UIServices server
It can't be network problem because DB and the services is under the same machine.
Through the logs and found some errors but I think below err desc has the highest possibilities;
Mon, 22 Sep 2008 13:55:10.0000000 [BRACKISH:9548] (IT_ATLI2_IOP:105) W - ATLI2 Failure occurred on connection to 10.10.11.109.3005: WSARecv() failed in TCPConnectionImpl::dispatch_failed() with: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Anybody can help or give me clue? Quite desperate here.

Sychronise Service and Asynchronise service

Hello ALl
SOAMANAGER - Synchronise services in Consumer and Provider system in ECC and SRM system
PI- Asynchronous enterprise services why?
can any one expalin in detail .
Muthu

Hi,
Async webservice always need mediated communication (or your consumer application itself support async behaviour). Notion of today's webservice is related to sync (real time response) webservices.
So any communication from ERP or any legacy system which want to consume async service need to go through middleware (PI, TIBCO, BizTalk or something else). On other hand almost all major vendor supports sync service call as it can be called like any other method/function/subroutine (program will wait for response from service).
From ABAP you can call Sync or Async service but Sync service can be called either directly or via PI on other hand Async service must go through PI (or middleware).
From SOAMANGER you can configure Sync services only. Async services will use PI runtime to route calls via PI.

Custom Portal Services and Web services

Can you please tell me what exactly are "custom portal services" and "web services" with a business like/ real life example?
How do you go about developing deploying and utilizing these services in Portal?
Thanks.

Hi navin,
Thanks for the par file.
Duly awarded points.
I need your help again.
I wish to use the method
public String getWelcomeString(String name)
in my own portal application to test usage of portal services.
So I uploaded your par file on my server.
Then I added the api and core jar files which came along with your par in my project as external jar files.
I imported com.wickes.WickesService.*;
Next, to use the service I coded:
IPortalRuntimeResources rs =
PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources();
IWickesService ws = (IWickesService) rs.getService(IWickesService.KEY);
But now I am stuck and I dont know how to proceed.
Please help.

LDAP Services and Shared services not starting

Our foundation services are based in a Win server
We had a problem with the server and it required to be restarted, by now the front end Hyperion services such as Web Analysis are up but Shared services and LDAP services not. We tried to start them manually and even running the exec but it is not working.
Any help?
best

Just to add a few words to John's suggestion, this problem usually occurs when an abnormal shutdown takes place on shared services server. The backend database engine is a compact db called Berkeley. Fortunately crashes generally affect logs rather than the data. In such cases like yours I simply copy db_recover.exe from below folder
%Hyperion_Home%\SharedServices\9.3.1\openLDAP\bdb\bin
to below folder
D:\Hyperion\SharedServices\9.3.1\openLDAP\var\openldap-data
and double click on db_recover.exe in this folder. It has fixed my problems so far. However, getting a directory backup of above directory doesn't hurt. So, do this at your own risk after minimizing your risk by taking a backup.
Cheers,
Alp

My envy 110 works but the web services and eprint services give "connection error". what to do?

My family use Macs and Apple Deskbook and a BT Homehub network. The HP troubleshooting instructions do not always match what is on computer screen. The menu paths that HP gives sometimes do not exist.
The Envy 110 printer was working fine but it often could not be found by the computers so I followed HP instructions to set a Static IP Address on the Printer. But now the Web Service and ePrint Service give a "connection error". Any suggestions? I am annoyed that HP don't give a phone number to help.

When you set that static IP on the printer, make sure of 2 things:
1. The IP address is outside the DHCP range of the router.
2. Use an external DNS, like Google DNS: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

User Profile Application and Managed Metadata services are missing

Running SharePoint 2013 servers on a set of 2012 R2 Servers. One of our farm administrators deleted the Secure Store service account. They recreated the Secure Store account, but after doing so, the Managed Metadata Service and User Profile Service
are now unavailable.
When going to the User Profile Page, there is an error that says "Sorry, something went wrong."
When going to the Metadata page, there is an error that says "The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available."
There is an additional error that says "The Security Token Service is not available."
How can all three services be brought back online?

That specific event log error is as follows:

User profile can't make service call to the taxonomy

Hi
I am trying to add a custom property to User Profile Application service. I have ticked "Configure a Term Set to be used for this property" for the select box to appear. The select box under "Pick a Term Set for this property"
is empty. I do have a managed metadata service application and there are data in the taxonomy.
Has anybody experienced this or any suggestion as to how I can get data in my taxonomy to appear in "Pick a Term Set for this property" select box?
Thanks
S.

Hi S,
Please make modification for Managed Metadata Service Connection and test the issue:
1.
Open Central Administration > Application Management > Manage service applications
2.
Select Managed Metadata Service Connection and click Properties in the ribbon
3.
Check the box “This service….column specific term sets.”
