Sharepoint-2013 on When Pigs Fly

More than I ever wanted to know about the SharePoint Search Topology

Tue, 16 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0000

The other night I burned way too many hours trying to fix a broken search service application for what seemed like a ridiculous reason. We have an integration server that we are using for a large project. I was working with it earlier in the day testing some front end code. Later in the evening with no apparent cause it decided to throw the error below on the Search Administration screen. This prevented search from operating and all my client side queries returned a nondescript 500 error telling me to check my search service.

Using Widget Wrangler with PnP for IE

Wed, 17 Jan 2018 00:00:00 +0000

I am creating client-side webparts using the Widget Wrangler for SharePoint. The webparts all use PnP JS. This site needs to work in IE 10+. The webparts work great in Chrome and most other browsers. However, when i run it in IE I get an error about Undefined Headers. This is because PnP uses Promises which IE 10 and 11 don’t support. To fix that I had to include some polyfills and perform a sacrifice to the SharePoint gods.
