Drive:\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config\GUID and delete all the XML files from the directory.

6. After you see XML files appearing on the Index server, repeat steps 2, 3 & 4 on each query server, waiting for XML files to appear before moving to subsequent servers.
7. After all of the query servers have all been cleared and new .xml files have been generated, proceed to the WFE and Application servers in the farm, following steps 2, 3, 4 and 5 for each remaining server.

SharePoint 2016 Hosting Spain – HostForLIFE.eu :: How To Solve SharePoint 2016 Error Installation
Feb 10th
In this post we will discuss how to resolve “Configuration Failed Error” while installing SharePoint 2016. This error usually comes when you run your SharePoint product configuration wizard and after giving your database details. This error also comes if you are trying to run create configuration database by using SharePoint 2015 Management Shell.
The Error
The error comes when we tried to run the New-SPConfigurationDatbase command from the Management Shell. The full command was like this:
New-SPConfigurationDatabase –DatabaseName SharePoint_Config –DatabaseServer WIN-JC2B1V15KM5 –AdministrationContentDatabaseName SharePoint_Content –Passphrase (ConvertTo-SecureString Qwerty@12345 –AsPlaintext –Force) –FarmCredentials (Get-Credential) -localserverrole SingleServerFarm
And the error came as like below:
The Solution
The account which we were using does have proper permission, so it was not able to create the configuration database. The below permission is required to create configuration database:
- Dbcreator
- SecurityAdmin
- SysAdmin
When we gave proper permission and then try to re-run the PowerShell command, it runs successfully and also when we run the product and configuration wizard, we would not get the issue.

In the .cs file –> “DisplayListData.cs” file of the web part, you should declare a Personalizable Control which creates a Text box in the Edit Web Part Properties. If you want multiple values you should declare it again & save the value in other string as you can see on the following code:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 |
//Create a textbox in the Edit Web Part Properties to get the List Name [Category("Custom Properties"), Personalizable(PersonalizationScope.User), WebBrowsable(true), WebDisplayName("List Name"), WebDescription("Enter List Name")] //Get the value from the textbox & save it in the string public string sListName { get; set; } //Create another textbox in the Edit Web Part Properties to get the field name [Category("Custom Properties"), Personalizable(PersonalizationScope.User), WebBrowsable(true), WebDisplayName("Column Name"), WebDescription("Enter List Column Name")] //Get the value from the textbox & save it in the string public string sListColumnName { get; set; } Now create the Label Controls to display the items in the web part Literal ltrl = new Literal(); Label lblListName = new Label(); Label lblColumnName = new Label(); Label lblDisplayError = new Label(); protected override void CreateChildControls() { ltrl.Text = ""; lblListName.Text = "List Name entered : " + sListName; lblListName.Font.Bold = true; lblColumnName.Text = "List Column Name entered : " + sListColumnName; lblColumnName.Font.Bold = true; lblDisplayError.Text = ""; this.Controls.Add(lblListName); this.Controls.Add(lblColumnName); this.Controls.Add(lblDisplayError); try { if (sListName != null && sListColumnName != null) { using (SPWeb currentWeb = SPContext.Current.Web) { SPList oList = currentWeb.Lists[sListName]; if (oList != null) { ltrl.Text = "Title<hr style='width:100px;text-align:left;'>"; foreach (SPListItem item in oList.Items) { ltrl.Text += "<i>" + item[sListColumnName] + "</i><br>"; } } } } else { lblDisplayError.Text = "Edit the Webpart and enter list name"; } this.Controls.Add(ltrl); } catch (Exception ex) { lblDisplayError.Text = ex.Message.ToString(); } } protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writeHtml) { try { lblListName.RenderControl(writeHtml); writeHtml.Write("<br /><br />"); lblColumnName.RenderControl(writeHtml); writeHtml.Write("<br /><br />"); ltrl.RenderControl(writeHtml); } catch (Exception ex) { //Log } } |
