SharePoint Server Search - Error Starting

Problem I recently ran into this snag at a client site while setting up the Search Service Application. I was able to create the service application without a problem however when I attempted to start the SharePoint Server Search service (Manage services on server page) I kept getting Error Starting . After taking a peak at the logs I found the following: An attempt to start/stop instance of service SharePoint Server Search on server did not succeed. Re-run the action via UI or command line on the specified server. Additional information is below. Access is denied.

SharePoint 2013 - Creating and Applying Composed Looks (PowerShell)

If you are a SharePoint administrator looking to quickly apply some basic branding to a site-collection in your SharePoint 2013 environment then you've come to the right spot. Before we begin I assume you have a basic understanding of what Composed Looks are, and perhaps you spent some time playing around with this concept in SharePoint 2013. If not, then don't worry.

Once created, Composed Look can be packaged by using the Design Manager feature, or we can use PowerShell to apply it across one or multiple site collections. NOTE: In this post we will be focusing on creating a composed look from an .spcolor file then using PowerShell to apply the design to a site-site collection of our choice. We wil...

SharePoint 2013 - Can't access the site externally in Internet Explorer ("Page cannot be displayed")

Synopsis Before we start talking about the problem let's understand the setup here. We have a SharePoint 2013 intranet site that is also configured for access outside of the corporate network. Employees use the same URL to visit the site both internally and externally via standard ports (80 and 443). Internal URL: http://sharepoint.domain.com Public URL: https://sharepoint.domain.com The site URL has been added to the Local Intranet zone in Internet Explorer for passing domain credentials. Alternate Access Mappings have been configured in such a way that if a user requests the site over HTTP they are automatically re-directed to HTTPS. Internal URL Zone Public URL for Zone https://sharepoint.domain.com Default https://sharepoint.domain.com http://sharepoint.domain.com Default https://sharepoint.domain.com Web application has been configured to use Kerberos protocol for authenticating incom...
