This section describes how to troubleshoot common problems that might occur when you set up the SharePoint Remote Connector.
This error can occur when the Internet Information Services (IIS) web server refuses to accept long URLs. To resolve this issue, update the web.config
configuration file for the SharePoint site in IIS. For example:
<configuration> ... <system.web> ... <httpRuntime ... maxUrlLength="1024" ... /> ... </system.web> ... </configuration>
When you use the connector to synchronize user profiles, you might see exceptions such as:
System.TimeoutException: The HTTP request to 'http://[sharepoint/resource]' has exceeded the allotted timeout of 00:00:20. The time allotted to this operation may have been a portion of a longer timeout.
You can prevent this error by increasing the timeout on the SharePoint system. To do this, alter the relevant fields in web.config
. For example, to increase the timeout to one minute, modify the fields as follows:
<binding name="ProfileServiceHttpsBinding" receiveTimeout="00:01:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" closeTimeout="00:01:00"> <binding name="ProfileServiceHttpBinding" receiveTimeout="00:01:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" closeTimeout="00:01:00"> <binding name="ProfileDBCacheServiceHttpsBinding" receiveTimeout="00:01:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" closeTimeout="00:01:00"> <binding name="ProfileDBCacheServiceHttpBinding" receiveTimeout="00:01:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" closeTimeout="00:01:00">
