SharePoint search results returning blank folders

By -
Error:
I have encountered this issue after splitting up my content sources. However there could be many other reasons for this issue.

 This issue occurs when your SharePoint Search Index got corrupt and does not respond to your search query in a proper fashion.

Resolution:

 Resetting the Search Index and running the full crawl again fixed the issue. You should also shrink Search Database in DB Server to free up the consumed space by the Search DB after resetting the Index. It should be in below order.

 1. Reset Search Index ( Read More ) 
2. Shrink the Search DB ( Read More )
3. Run full Crawl ( Read More )

Service Bus Gateway service stuck at Starting

Lesson Learned: Never leave your servers to automatically download and install the updates. We had a SharePoint farm where Workflow manager is configured on one of its server and rest of them are just using WFM client to connect with the server. Everything was running smooth until some updates got installed on the servers over night and the next morning Workflows stuck and start giving errors. As initial check, I verified SharePoint services and WFM services, noticed that the Service Bus Gateway service is struck at Starting state. This was very generic thing but at least a point to start thinking... Troubleshooting: 1. Tried manual restart, but no luck. 2. Tried Leaving and Joining the WFM Farm again. But the timeout error. Error message received during rejoining:  “Starting Service bus gateway on machine <servername> failed: timeout has expired and the operation has not been completed” 3. Tried ULS check and noticed below error. "  Service cannot be started. Microsoft.Ser

Although its a great experience working with Microsoft products but sometimes they surprises you with bugs that being a developer you would not expect. You may come across the problem that PowerApps SubmitForm is not updating data in SharePoint list, specially the People Picker type field (could be the same case with datetime type as well. Same thing I have experienced that while working on a PowerApps form which is connected with simple SharePoint list, I was unable to update the value of People Picker control which was having no special settings in SharePoint, just simple out of the box list with Title and a People Picker column. Spent hours on it but no gain. Finally the Google, a friend who can help you to find the right thing if you search for it. I came across this and this post and found similarity. Made the same changes and boom...! It worked..! You just need to turn ON the Fomula level error management under the Advance Settings. Below is the settings which I set to Yes. Have

SharePoint online hub navigation not updating for other users

By -
Its been quite a time that I am working with SharePoint Online and meeting new challenges every day. Its feels great when you find a solution for something which Google do not tell you. I am just writing this post because there might be someone out there facing the same issue and this post might help him. BTW, before you check the actual post of how to fix the navigation check below, this might also help to change the user language. Problem Description: When an Admin of SharePoint Online site, updates the hub navigation (or may be site navigation), it do not get updated for all the users instantly. User has to clear browser cache to get the updated navigation. As per discussion with Microsoft, SharePoint saves a copy of the navigation in browser cache which automatically refreshes after a certain period of time. By default, you cannot clear browser cache using React or JS code. Browsers do not allow you to do so. So, the user should wait till that time? ABSOLUTELY NOT! (Imran Khan 😋 )
