I am facing permission issue while uploading as well as deleting font in SharePoint online. I am uploading here at this path - 

<companyDomain>.sharepoint.com/sites/<siteName>/_catalogs/theme/15

Here when I am trying to upload fonts then an error occurred -

The document cannot be uploaded because different permissions are needed. Request the necessary permissions.

And when I am trying to remove fonts from theme/15 folders then an error occurred -

The server has encountered the following error(s)  

fontscheme001.spfont

Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource. 

When I am uploading at below path then font uploaded successfully.

path - <companyDomain>.sharepoint.com/_catalogs/theme/Forms/AllItems.aspx 

My GOAL  is to upload custom font for modern experience, am I following the correct process. If yes then why I am getting this permission issue also I have admin permissions(Full Control).

KB4489868 give problems to edit documents with accent in the name of folders

Hi to all, after installed the KB4489868 on all PC's with Windows 10 1803 and 1809 some document's in SharePoint 2013, are opened in read only mode with IE 11 . The message on the Office 2016 products is: READ - ONLY We opened this workbook read-only from the server".
No solution, the only way is uninstall the Windows 10 patch KB4489868. All computer have classic Office 2016 Pro "MSI" (no office 365 or click to run).
After a lot of tests I have discovered that Italian language with accent in the name of SharePoint folders, create this problems with IE11.
Example in this ULR there is a folder with name bogotà, all documents in the last folder are in read only (by the server):
https:// .../business/Sales/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fbusiness%2FSales%2F6%2E%20Internazionale%2FProspect%2FVecchi%20prospect%2FBogot%C3%A0&FolderCTID=0x012000270F431E7E6D41409EB9EDE53BDE49CA&View=%7B21699667%2D992B%2D413C%2DA6D8%2D9631FD75C182%7D
after renamed the folder in bogot or bogota (without accent) all documents can be edited
https://.../business/Sales/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fbusiness%2FSales%2F6%2E%20Internazionale%2FProspect%2FVecchi%20prospect%2FBogot&FolderCTID=0x012000270F431E7E6D41409EB9EDE53BDE49CA&View=%7B21699667%2D992B%2D413C%2DA6D8%2D9631FD75C182%7D
Another example is a folder with name: città di torino, all documents are in read only if I change the name of the folder citta di torino, IE work and the Office Word, Excel, PowerPoint can edit the documents.
Our SharePoint 2013 is installed on Windows 2012 R2 English US, SharePoint is English with Italian Language Pack, the last SharePoint update installed is CU 2019.01 kb4461605.
It is impossible rename all the folders with accent! :)
The problems is not present with Chrome or Firefox.
Do you known a possible solution?
Thanks

Hi all, i am running out of idea.  My on-prem Sharepoint 2013 now having one weird issues, the Production server farm "send to connectin" archival is not working but this is working fine in UAT farm.   

Let me cut in short:

  • content organizer is turned on ad also re-activated. 
  • The "Configure send to connection" having error "verification failed: url is not a valid destination" since beginning, then we use powershell to get it configure.  But the document didnt get move when we test in production farm. 
  • tried with "move" and "copy" also same output, nothing happen
  • Also tried http://server:port/name/_vti_bin/officialfile.asmx and no luck
  • Quite confident that is no DNS issues as browser able to access
  • Server reboot also same
  • Confirmed the account having all the necessary permission including site collection access
  • uls logs and events logs not found any suspicious info and also no found any erorr logged
  • tried creating retention policy to copy instead of move but document not even get copied

Any advice?  Thanks.

uploading a document to library with folders, the document goes into a default folder rather than allowing the user to choose the folder

March 22, 2019, 7:39 am

I have a sharepoint page I am supporting.  The page has a library on it with 10 folders.

When uploading a new document to the library, the document goes into a default folder.  However when uploading a new document, I want the user to be able to select the folder the document should go into.

When going to:

Site Settings / Site Library and Lists / Customize "libraryname" / Column value default settings. 

This lists the libraryname and the default folder.  

In this screen, when clicking on the column name which holds the folder name, it comes up with a dialogue box saying "Edit Default Value" and a button is enabled saying "Do not specify a default value for this location".  But there is a default value - which is the default folder name.

Note:  I am a business user who is not experienced with sharepoint.

Thank you for help on this,..David Mowll

Hello,

I've struggle with one issue. I've restricted an access for few users to sharepoint that they could see just one folder in a library by stopping inheriting permissions. I've provided the link only to that site and they've got contribute permissions to that one folder. However, it seems that they can not create new folders in that one folder they have access. Could you please help me how I can resolve that issue that these few users who has only access to that folder could create new folders among only this one folder?

I would appreciate your help.

Document Retention Policy on Modified Date (recycle) Loop?

January 3, 2018, 8:03 am

I have a document retention policy on a library. I added a very simple email notification to allow the user to edit first. 

  • Modified + 1 day (Workflow) Send Email
  • Modified + 2 days (Send to Recycle Bin)

If the user does not edit the file it will go to the second step and move the file to the recycle bin. That works well.

However, if the user edits the file, it appears to stop the process. Good news is the file is not moved. But bad news is, it remains indefinitely. It does not start the process over.

Any suggestions? Should I enable the workflow to run if the file is edited? At present that is off. OR should I set the retention process to "repeat this stage's action until the next stage is activated" . If yes, should the recurrence period be set to 1 day, 2 day or 3 days

User search is not working

Environment: SharePoint 2013, windows server 2012. 

User profile synchronization is not working on our farm . When I check the User Profile synchronization service application on central admin , I see there are only 15 profiles synchronized.  I am still working on re-configuring. 

However, on our SharePoint site when I search for a user in settings->permissions, I can find a user but it always shows 3 options for every user  and they all look same . This user can  be or active directory user name or some random name like James Bond. 

When I hover over these options it says RoleADFS Production QS(domain name) , UPN ADFS Production QS(domain name), EmailADFS Production QS(domain name) address. I always select email and able to assign permissions. Is it doing this because our user profile is not synchronizing at this point

My question is how does this user search works in SharePoint. When I am looking for a user to assign permissions does it look in user profile DB or does it get information from AD. 

I want it to show me only correct user.

Intermittent error while syncing mpp back to SharePoint list

February 24, 2019, 8:23 pm

I have a Microsoft project 2016 file. I sync this file back to a SharePoint list. To begin my workflow, I always begin by going to my SharePoint list in browser, and click on "Open with project". This open the list in my local copy of Project. I then make bulk edits in my mpp, and save it. This triggers a sync back to SharePoint.

It works correctly most of the times, but sometimes when I hit save in my mpp, get error :

Sorry, we couldn’t sync the tasks list to the SharePoint site. Please make sure that:

  • The SharePoint site is running and is not in read-only mode

  • you have sufficient privileges to sync to this SharePoint site

  • The tasks list is still available and its name hasn't changed

None of the above apply to me, and I am not sure why sometimes my mpp just fails to sync. This is specially a big frustration, when I just finishing spending an hour with lots of changes, and then mpp fails to sync and I have to throw away all the edits. This generally gets fixed, if I open the project again from the browser link "open with project". Yet, sometimes I have to continue trying to open from the browser multiple times, before it finally starts to work. I do have a number of custom fields which I sync, but it does get synced some times, while sometimes, without any change, it starts giving the errors.

Also, this is a new sharepoint list which I am setting up, so I am sure people are not hitting the site yet, and it is almost only me using the sharepoint site for now.

I have around 2000 rows in my microsoft project file, and no external links.

I just started learning SharePoint for work.  So I'm quite novice. I built an Action Tracker to track tasks for everyone. The supervisor now wants the task to turn red if overdue. Is it possible to have an item turn red, either the text or background once it becomes past due?

Thanks!
