when provisionning a site from a site collection that has wikipages with webparts, the page are created without webparts as the original one.

Hi there,
First of all thanks for an amazing initiative and a great resource.
I'm having trouble authenticating the app after completing all the steps in guide.

Error which clicking on the PnP app is
AADSTS70001: Application with identifier '"9d7aec0c-3af0-408e-92fb-4140281f4d79"' was not found in the directory .onmicrosoft.com

Ive verified that the AppID mentioned in the error is infact correct and does exist as an AAD app in my 0365 tenant.
I've checked the app permissions especially the app and delegated permissions to other apps and it matches your guide.
also ensured that Enable Organizational Authentication is unchecked.

Any ideas or tips of what else to check?
Thanks is advance
Amir

Getting the below error:
[01/21/2016 16:11:48 > 20ab67: ERR ] Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.IdentityModel.Clients.ActiveDirectory, Version=2.19.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies.

Fix was to add the Microsoft.identitymodel.clients.ActiveDirectory to the web job solutions

We've a cool script that does most of the work...but we only tell that at the end of the section...by then folks already followed the manual steps. Small thing, but will help improve the experience. Actually I'm wondering if even should explain the manual steps...as they're not complete.

Hey, thank you for the write up, and mostly complete documentation. Great stuff.

When i use the pnp web app to create my new site collections, i complete the new sites collection form, submit, and it "begins".. The status says "pending", the only problem is, its been pending for 3 days now. I created a second one, and it also has been pending for 2 days.

Looking at the infrastructure site, i can see the two continuous jobs, also pending.

Also below is some of the logging output.

I have stopped and restarted the web app, both web jobs are "ticked" green and happy in azure portal. What am i missing or doing wrong?

We're getting occasional timeouts during composed look activation when provisioning a new site collection. This happens roughly once every 5 provisionings. Is it possible to increase / customize the timeout somewhere? As a workaround, I wrote an ExtensibilityHandler that activates the composed look (and catches any errors / retries) and removed it from the template. That works but feels odd.

I've found that you receive the error "Error stepping through Site creation: Internal Server Error", if your site collection relative url is too long (greater than 33 characters).

The error is generated in the EnqueueProvisioningJob method of the SharePointProvisioningRepository.cs (within the Infrastructure project). In the EnqueueProvisioningJob method, line 268, the listitem title field is set. The title field no doubt has a 255 character limit which is exceeded if your site collection relative url is too long.

In my case I've put a [MaxLength(33)] attribute against the RelativeUrl property of the CreateSiteViewModel to stop this error occurring. Another option would be trim the job.Title value to 255 characters.

Pete

Thanks for this great resource.

Once you click "Save site as a Provisioning Template", complete the form and click save, you aren't given any means to get back to the "Site Settings" page of the site collection/site from where you came.

With the Partner Pack, and creating sub sites within a site collection, we are seeing that the sub site's description is not getting set, even though it was entered in the create sub site form. I can see that the description does get included in the .job file, but the sub sites get created and everything is proper except for the description.

It seems as though this would be a straightforward thing, as Partner Pack is using the normal construct to create subwebs with CSOM, but I am baffled as to why it is failing to set the description Any ideas?

Hi,
we recently received an email warning :
The Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) certificate associated with one or more of your applications will roll over, does the core handle this automatically or do I need to re-issue a key and update web.config?
Thanks

Hello Team,

I have completed the PnP partner pack set up by following the channel9 Video. Everything is working as expected. I have provisioned one site collection by using default blank template provided. Site got created. After that i added Discussion Board, Calendar, and Usefull Links webpart to home page of this site and Saved this site as template. I am trying to provision another site collection by using this template. Site is getting created but template is not applied. It is still taking blank template only. in We b Job logs also no errors reported. Please help if somebody faced the same kind of issue. Thanks in advance

I'm getting this error on the home page when navigating from the app launcher. Also when trying to save a site template.

So... Webjobs are running however, my site collection provisioning as well subsite provisioning jobs are still pending for days.
in the webjobs dashboard I dont see any errors or activity for continousjob only following:
[07/12/2016 12:41:15 > 65012a: SYS INFO] Status changed to Running
[07/12/2016 12:41:18 > 65012a: INFO] Found the following functions:
[07/12/2016 12:41:18 > 65012a: INFO] OfficeDevPnP.PartnerPack.ContinousJob.Functions.ProcessQueueMessage
[07/12/2016 12:41:18 > 65012a: INFO] Job host started

so the queue name that is see in projects is set as a constant "pnppartnerpackjobsqueue" in the PnPPartnerPackSettings class and is referenced by the PnPPartnerPackSampleConfiguration xml. this i assume I should not need to modify, correct?

I discoverd the functions log in the azure webjobs dashboard and I see the attached error. can you help me understand the issue. is it related to the certificate?

The "Save site as Provisioning Template" link on the Site Settings page and the "new subsite" link on the Site Contents page redirect to wrong Azure website (https://pnp-partner-pack.azurewebsites.net) In my case should be https://ptcpnppartnerpack.azurewebsites.net. Causes 401 Unauthorized error.

I'm seeing two issues with creating new Site Collections using a template created via the Save Site as Template feature. We created a custom Site Collection, with a set of targeted Lists (News & Announcements, Calendar, Documents and Tasks), and several "custom" Content Search Web Parts on the home page. We have Publishing turned on at both the site collection level and the site level. (Also some branding with custom logo and alternate css file.) Lastly, we enabled the Partner Pack Extensions for the custom Site Collection and successfully saved that as a Template.

However, when we attempt to use that template it fails on applying "Site Security" with errors like "The specified user Hierarchy Managers could not be found." or "The specified user Designers could not be found." I'm guessing that these "users" should be part of the Publishing Feature, which has not yet been enabled. Therefore shouldn't features run before Site Security?

If we rip out the whole Site Security Section, the update times out waiting for the Features Handler to finish. So far I have the time-out set for 10 minutes, and will be testing a longer time out (1 hour) out of curiosity.

While attempting to remote debug the web job (PartnerPack.ScheduledJob), it appears you can't remotely attach to a scheduled/on-demand web job. What is everyone else doing to debug ScheduledJob? Do you make it a continuous job in order to attach to it?

Has anyone successfully created a new site collection with a template saved from a Site Collection with publishing turned on? Or is the Best Practice to start empty and turn on all the features and upload any custom web parts separately, piece meal?

Howdy...

I've published the Partner Pack Web Application as per the documentation, but I don't see a listing of Templates to select from to start the Auto-Provisioning Process. I believe I can communicate with SPO because when i go to Settings, I can see a list of Site Collections. And enable/disable Partner Pack on targeted Site Collections.

Any ideas why I can't see the Default Template List?

Hi,

I only need to implement the responsive feature for an SharePoint 2013 online site but even though the docs mention that the PnP package doesn't have to be installed to use this, there is no guide on how to actually achieve this.

Can anyone assist with this?

Thanks

Hi,

I am getting the following error on running the power shell command let for Provisioning the template.

The Configure-Configs.ps1 script contains 2 samples with different parameters, one uses CertificatePath and one uses CertificateThumbprint. Why are there 2, which is correct?

The instructions explain how to use the old Azure Portal. Can these be update to explain what needs to be done in the new site at portal.azure.com

Start with outlining that we've a script that can do the setup before telling what needs to be done.

Hi Paolo,

Is it possible to add the following features in PnP-Partner-Pack 3.0? This way it will become like a product and anyone can use without even customizing the code.

1. Configurable labels displayed in the forms (app icon, name, footer, etc.,)
2. Site Approval Process before creating a subsite (primary and backup approvers kind of)
3. Dashboard (My Tasks, Sites Requested, Approved, Rejected, Failed)

We are already using PnP-Partner-Pack as our bench mark :)

We're not using this code, so best to get rid of it to avoid confusion

When you save template and provide preview image for the template - that image is not properly saved to the template xml. This will result template not to have the right preview image when end users are selecting template to be applied.

This almost seems like an issue with Nuget, but I'm not sure here. On initial clone & build attemp Nuget fails to download the following packages:

Microsoft.Net.Compilers 1.0.0
WindowsAzure.Storage 6.0.0
System.Spatial 5.6.3

Should these dependencies be updated in the project?

Hi,
I tried creating meeting/community based templates but only team sites work , are they supported?
Thanks

Hi there,

I've published the 2 azure web jobs as suggested in your video and tried creating a site collections which is stuck on pending.

The continous webjob status is pending restart and the logging suggests to run an exe:

I haven't created any storage accounts nor have I added any connection strings. Have I overlooked something?

The script is not executing on first run, CTRL-F5 does the trick. Typically this is an MDS issue...see core.embedjavascript sample.

We should indicate that selecting a template is mandatory

How to override the new Create Subsite in the Modern Team Site look?

Hi perhaps someone give me a hint whats going wrong - when i opening the web app i get error ... only thing i found in log is:

The CodeDom provider type "Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform.CSharpCodeProvider, Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" could not be located. (D:\home\site\wwwroot\web.config line 148)

Did i miss something in tutorial?

Currently the code that creates the job entry assumes that the user entered for the primary and secondary site collection administrator has the email returned from the people picker.

Values for PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin and SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin sent to the controller:

PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin:[{"Login":"i:0#.f|membership|admin@[tenant].onmicrosoft.com","Name":"Admi Strato","Email":""}]
SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin:[{"Login":"i:0#.f|membership|admin@[tenant].onmicrosoft.com","Name":"Admi Strato","Email":""}]

The following code (lines 118 - 121 in HomeController.cs)
ob.PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin = model.PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin != null && model.PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin.Length > 0 ? model.PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin[0].Email : null; job.SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin = model.SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin != null && model.SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin.Length > 0 ? model.SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin[0].Email : null;

This results in the following job being persisted in the SharePoint list:

{
  "PrimarySiteCollectionAdmin": "",
  "SecondarySiteCollectionAdmin": "",
  "StorageMaximumLevel": 0,
  "StorageWarningLevel": 0,
  "UserCodeMaximumLevel": 0,
  "UserCodeWarningLevel": 0,
  "ExternalSharingEnabled": false,
  "PartnerPackExtensionsEnabled": true,
  "ResponsiveDesignEnabled": true,
  "SiteTitle": "asdfasdf",
  "RelativeUrl": "/sites/asdfasdf",
  "SitePolicy": "LBI",
  "Description": null,
  "Language": 1025,
  "ProvisioningTemplateUrl": "https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/PnP-Partner-Pack-Infrastructure/PnPProvisioningTemplates/TestDriveRoot.xml",
  "TimeZone": 39,
  "TemplateParameters": null,
  "JobId": "7c4645e5-bd43-4074-a0ef-07f2a0a8c454",
  "Title": "Provisioning of Site Collection \"/sites/asdfasdf\" with Template \"https://[tenant].sharepoint.com/sites/PnP-Partner-Pack-Infrastructure/PnPProvisioningTemplates/TestDriveRoot.xml\" by admin@[tenant].onmicrosoft.com",
  "Owner": "admin@[tenant].onmicrosoft.com",
  "Status": 2,
  "ErrorMessage": null
}

When the job for this request is executed it fails with the message: The Owner property is required for site creation and was not supplied.

In this case the owner was the also the account selected using the people picker.

Perhaps if both the Site Collection Admins are null this process should throw and exception before persisting the job as

I have enabled the pnp partner pack to me existing site collections. When i create a new subsite, i do not get the new pnp site templates, i just see the regular old new subsite form.

Look at these threads:

Hey after installing and configuring, my new site collection is "responsive" within a computer browser, however it is not on a mobile device.

Is anyone experiencing this?

When I am trying to apply search configuration I am getting an error. When I am using the same template with the powershell it is working fine.

ServerException was caught
The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error.
For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults
(either from ServiceBehaviorAttribute or from the configuration behavior)
on the server in order to send the exception information back to the client, or turn on
tracing as per the Microsoft .NET Framework SDK documentation and inspect the server
trace logs.

How come the classic Azure portal is used to create the App Service instead of the Portal? Would there be any benefit to putting the PnP artifacts into an Azure Resource Group?
I'm looking forward to demonstrating this to my new client.

When we create new Site Collections, the Storage Maximum Level Value is being ignored. Doesn't matter what we enter it's only deploying the site with 1 GB of space. What is the expected units for this field? MBs? GBs?

The PageLayout OneColumnSideBar is no accepted in a provisioning template.

Apply-SPOProvisioningTemplate : The provided template is not valid!

The direct coding is possible and works fine.

web.AddLayoutToWikiPage("SitePages", OfficeDevPnP.Core.WikiPageLayout.OneColumnSideBar, "Homepage.aspx");

Since the introduction of Application permissions in Azure AD (Read and write managed metadata) see Manual-Setup-Guide.md, it is possible to create termgroups.

Should the OfficeDevPnP.Core.Framework.Provisioning.Model.Handlers.TermGroups still be excluded or can this Handler now be used?

If it can be used the "Architecture-and-Implementation.md" -> "Taxonomies Support"-section should be revised.

I got a strange auth exception because i forgot to uncheck the "Enable Organizational Authentication" checkbox...

Second thing is that ApplicationDBContext got prepopulated as I already deployed apps using a SQL Azure database in the past...this value should be cleaned...this will not cause problems, but better avoid the confusion

Hi, I've been testing the PnP Partner Pack provisioning process. I've created a simply site collection template which simply provisions a team site with a custom logo and composed look. The composed look only contains a ColorFile (I've attached the associated template).

When I use the template to provision a new site collection, I receive a "File Not Found" error when the engine attempts to apply the template. I've managed to debug the associated ScheduledJob and I've found that the issue occurs with the token replacement, in which the token {sitecollection} and {themecatalog} get replaced with an empty string. When I traced it further I found that call to Web.Context.GetSiteCollectionContext (ThemeCatalogToken.cs) actually returned to the tenant admin site collection context (https://-admin.sharepoint.com)... rather than the context of the newly created site collection. Because of this the {themecatalog} token simply came back as /_catalogs/theme... rather than //_catalogs/theme. I'll try and debug it further to see why it's getting the tenant admin context.

I have setup PnP partner pack on O365 developer license and created site collections.
All works fine the jobs are completed successfully and the site collection are provisioned. But whenever i access the site collection I see blank site (means a total blank page). Can anyone let me know what could be the issue here?

Demonstration of batch creation of site collections based on csv file, which is read and then messages for site collection creation are added to Azure storage queue for creation.

Alternative model for site collection creation.

I'm not seeing the custom nav bar and footer on newly created site collection sites. What needs to be done for these to appear?

During setup, the AzureWebSite URL I put into configure the Web App was found to be already taken, so I updated the URL to something unique and then re-ran all the config tools. The Pnp-Partner-Pack-Overrides was correctly updated with the new URL, but when I enable the Partner pack with an existing Site Collection it's embeding the original URL.

I've done a full solution search for the olde URL using several different variations from Full to Partial, and can't find any left overs. I've download the Web App version for comparision and it's setup correctly. And I've re-published the Web App several times. (I don't think I published the web app before I updated the AzureWebSiteUrl to the correct URL, but something is holding on to it somewhere.)

Thoughts on where to start looking to fix this?

Hi,

I am in Azure AD management, but I cant see Office 365 SharePoint Online in the "permissions to other applications". I am following the steps in the manual setup guide. Just after clicking the "Add Application" button.

any ideas?

thanks

The templates used during setup require a PS version that understands the schema of the templates (201512 in this case). connect-sponline -url blabla -verbose outputs the current version...can be used to verify if the version is "high" enough

I am able to create site collection and sub site by provisioning framework using Apponly permission.

but when it calls this code, i am getting below error
Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.
web.ApplyProvisioningTemplate(template, ptai);

I have applied Tenant level permission to app, so i am able to create site collection as well.

Permission applied to App is as per below:

Let me know where i am missing.
