Recently had a user who could not log in to their microsoft Teams , reinstalling did not fix this. I had to clear the Application Data 

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Teams

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Teams

Reinstall and Sign out  and Sign back in at the user

After migrating some files , navigating to them via Windows Explorer using WebDav , some of the folders come up Empty. Even using Sharepoint Designer they are empty as well. 

Syncing the Folder using the Onedrive Sync Client works 

The issue is related to character limit when syncing files. The entire path, including the file name, must contain fewer than 400 characters for OneDrive, OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online and 260 for offline sync.

Trying to set up a domain to be hosted on a subdirectory on IIS Server , comes up with the following error:

This was due to the root domain using a different Application Pool then the subsite.

Use Advanced Settings of the parent site to change to the same application pool of the sub folder

HTTP Error 403.18 – Forbidden – The specified request cannot be processed in the application pool that is configured for this resource on the Web server.

Detailed Error InformationModule
IIS Web Core

Notification
BeginRequest

Handler
ExtensionlessUrlHandler-Integrated-4.0

Error Code
0x00000000

Requested URL
http://X.X.X.X:80/test/

Physical Path
D:\test\test\

Logon Method
Not yet determined

Logon User
Not yet determined

Most likely causes: •An ISAPI filter or custom module changed the URL to run in a different application pool than the original URL.
•An ISAPI extension (or custom module) used ExecuteURL (or ExecuteRequest) to run in a different application pool than the original URL.
•You have a custom error page that is located in one application pool but is referenced by a Web site in another application pool. When the URL is processed, it is determined by IIS that that it should have been processed in the first application pool, not the other pool.
•The Web site has multiple applications configured. The application this request is configured to run in is set to run in an application pool that does not exist.

Folders can’t be recovered but the files are still present so you can manually recreate the folder and search for the files in iManage and move them back into it. If your not sure all the files you can restore the database to find the old PRJ_ID of the folder then search for the files with that Parent

A script below helps with restoring Subfolders etc : 

The first for the folders, the second for documents. You will also need to run something similar for folder profiles and security, but that should be straight forward.

@prjid would the first folder you wish to restore, the query will pull all of the children.

Replace “PRODUCTION” and “RESTORE” with your own db names.

!!Of course use at your own risk, this works on my environment, and should work on yours too. !!

-- Folders / Workspace
DECLARE @prjID BIGINT;
select @prjid = --PARENT FOLDER ID


WITH tblChild AS
(
    SELECT * FROM  RESTORE.mhgroup.projects WHERE prj_pid = @prjID
    UNION ALL
    SELECT p.*  FROM RESTORE.mhgroup.projects p JOIN tblChild c  ON p.prj_pid = c.prj_id
)
insert into PRODUCTION.mhgroup.projects
SELECT * FROM tblChild where prj_id not in (select prj_id from PRODUCTION.mhgroup.projects)
OPTION(MAXRECURSION 32767)


-- Documents
DECLARE @prjID BIGINT;
select @prjid = --PARENT FOLDER ID

WITH tblChild AS
(
    SELECT * FROM  mhgroup.projects WHERE prj_pid = @prjID
    UNION ALL
    SELECT p.*  FROM mhgroup.projects p JOIN tblChild c  ON p.prj_pid = c.prj_id
)

insert into PRODUCTION.mhgroup.project_items
SELECT s.* FROM tblChild p
 inner join RESTORE.mhgroup.project_items s on s.prj_id = p.prj_id
where sid not in (select sid from PRODUCTION.mhgroup.project_items)
OPTION(MAXRECURSION 32767)

Recently rebooted a server and the server wouldn’t post past this

Firmware and Bios had recently been updated so it could not have been that

Checking the Integrated Management Log   showed the below , however the ILO Health was Green! 

Disconnecting the P440 Card fixed the issue until HP sent Replacement
