We are looking at logs on our sharepoint and see a call to this web service from several PC's.
The calls apprear very regular every 5 mins, when the PC is on.
Anyone know what is causing this?
Edit
The agent in the iis log is: Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+6.0;+Windows+NT+5.1;+HO32602;+HO32600;+HO32501;+.NET+CLR+1.1.4322;+.NET+CLR+2.0.50727)
In addition to the above (which is likely) it could be one of the desktop search products that MS has created.
Maybe:
Office
Workspace/Groove sync
Some custom client application
SharePoint Designer
Browser
Whats the user agent reported in the logs?

As described in the title, the app simply stops working after some time.
The application itself is a simple, one page form that pulls data from a webapi on another webserver by use of the Sharepoint WebProxy and displays that data using knockout.js. The environment and the Sharepoint Server (On-Premise, same domain as my Dev Machine) are configured correctly - supposedly - as described in
Configure an environment for apps for SharePoint (SharePoint 2013)
I can develop, debug in VS, deploy and open the App directly on the Sharepoint Site.
But after a while, when opening the app again without having changed or redeployed anything it stops at this point in the redirect process:
https://sharepointurl/_layouts/15/appredirect.aspx?instance_id=<some-guid>
and shows the "This page cannot be displayed" message. The Sharepoint Site still works.
There are no errors in the eventlog. Most of the time I can fix this by restarting the IIS service completely on which the Sharepoint Site resides. But sometimes even that doesnt work.
What could be the problem? Any Idea?
Update: The error is not consistent in that it may occur for user A but not for user B and even that can exchange after some time, so that the user B sees the error and user A can use the App.
Update: The error only occurs in IE 11 and doesn't happen when using Google Chrome.
Update: It seems as if Sharepoint 2013 Apps do not work with Internet Explorer 11, which I was using. As we had other issues with IE 11 and Reporting I downgraded my development machine to IE 10 and now it works.
Update: This had nothing to do with IE 11 either. The error eventually returned.
My first recommendation would be to have your client use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer, even on a Windows 7 64-bit Operating System. Internet Explorer is the ideal browser for Active X and the preferred browser for SharePoint Online for Office 365.
Next I would recommend that your client configure Internet Explorer for SharePoint Online, to review the article detailing this process click here.
My last recommendation would be to have them install the latest updates and configure their computers for use with Office 365. The following links and instructions will detail that process.
Once again another issue
I am trying to delete a site that i have created via a template and i am running in to
No available sandboxed code execution server could be found.
The template only contains a few columns programatically created along with some content types.
The CT's are also added to lists.
Anyone got any ideas?
I will continue to go through the ULS logs and hope someone saves me
Cheers

If you have empty receivers in your features and your solution is a SANDBOX one you should either switch it to Farm solution or check if your user code host service is running. Go to Services and check the "SharePoint 2010 User Code Host". Also check the "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Sandboxed Code Service" service in the /_admin/Server.aspx It has to be running to support sandbox solutions.
I thought I'd give SharePoint development a go, to broaden my understanding of Microsoft technologies and ran into a situation I refuse to understand.
I have a new web application created: http://localhost:11523 and set up the site collection as required. I can browse to the web site fine, without any issues, but now I want to start developing against this, using the object model.
Right, so after I struggled with SPSite site = new SPSite("http://localhost:11523"); I figured that I'm not running VS2008 in elevated permissions, so restarting VS I finally got one step further.
Whenever I step into my code, I get:
The Web application at
http://localhost:11523/ could not be
found.
I've Googled this without luck. The application is most definitely there, I can browse it, add web parts and go mad. I just can't seem to connect to it via Visual Studio.
Any ideas would be great.
EDIT
I thought I'd isolate my method, called "GetListFromSharePoint(string name)" into a test method (nUnit Framework) and to my surprise returned 9 entries from the list, as expected. When I dumped the method back into my web application (not SharePoint, trying to test the Composite Control through a normal Web site), and run into the mentioned problem.
This is in SharePoint 2007, and I'm developing on the same machine onto which SharePoint 2007 is installed.
This approach used to work, for some reason, I just can't get it to recognize SharePoint. The test stubs work find, just not the web application.
Edit 2
So there where a couple of things I "missed", which kind of solved the problem by itself.
Firstly, I was developing on a x64 Windows 2008 box, thus SharePoint 2007 was running in x64 mode. Cassini, turns out, is 32bit regardless of the platform you run it on, which caused some compiler bugs (I did not have IA64 compilers installed). After installing this, I figured out that the default web site (localhost:80) had been disabled by SharePoint.
Renabling the default web site, allowed me to create my web application as a virtual directory against it, which allowed my debugger compiler to run in x64.
My next challenge was access permissions. Because any new virtual directory on port 80 is assigned to the default application pool, is it assumed that the user does not have the right permissions, so I had to change my web application to run under my SharePoint web application's application pool.
The last thing I had to do was run my SharePoint code with elevated permissions.
Working like a charm :D
Note! Enable debug on your SharePoint web application....
Thanks,

(You have not specified version - assuming SharePoint 2010).
You need to decide what object model you want to use:
client (to be able to access the server from any other machine)
server (the one that you are trying now, can only be run locally).
Most likley reasons your code not work:
using "localhost" instead of ""computer name" in the Url. (I believe it is the reason.)
you are running your code not on the same machine as the SharePoint
you are running code under non-admin account
Check out how sites collections are configured in "Central Administration" site - urls associated with each site collection are listed there - make sure you are using correct one.
You can also try enumerating all site collections in SPWebApplication (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.administration.spwebapplication.sites.aspx) to start expiriments.
I dont think the SPSite connect through the IIS, and if SharePoint isn't set up to respond to localhost (done in the Central Administration) you wont be able to connect to that url. IIS works a bit different here since it relays the signals to "localhost" to the "web application instance".
Start by checking in your SharePoint Central Administration. Go to "Configure alternate access mappings" in the "System Settings" section. Here you have your SharePoint instances, there are three properties which you can see directly in the list; 'Internal URL', 'Zone' and 'Public URL for Zone'.
If the Internal URL isn't set to Localhost you wont be able to use that connection you suggested. It bay be improper to change this to another url as well, so simply try to set your SPSite site = new SPSite("http://yourinternalurl:11523"); to whatever's in that box! :)

I setup a test box computer with server 2008 (standard edition, not R2 and not hyper-v editing). I then installed SharePoint 2010. I was amazed how easy the whole setup went (the prerequisites setup on the SharePoint disk made this process oh so easy – great install system). Really this was just so easy.
This test box is being used for testing Access web services. I am able to well publish access applications to this test server and Access applications publish and run just fine on the web SharePoint site through an web browser.
However, the only thing that does not work is when I launch a Access report. The error message I get back is
This report failed to load because session state is not turned on.
Here is a screen shot:
I can’t seem to find the setting anywhere to turn session state on. Any hints or links on how to enable session state in SharePoint 2010 would be most appreciated.
On Todds blog you can find a post which explains how to turn on session state in SharePoint 2010.
Here is the solution:
http://geekdeck.com/sharepoint-2010-this-report-failed-to-load-because-session-state-is-not-turned-on/
Probably not in SharePoint head over to the IIS configuration and see whether session state is enabled there. I am not aware of anything in the SharePoint forms (I did set up 2010 on the weekend) that indicates session state. And as session state on farms is an administrator action (state server etc.), maybe they simply did not activate it?;)
We have a brand new SharePoint 2007 Intranet farm running on new 64-bit hardware with lots of processor and memory. We are using Kerberos for security and have carefully followed all the written guidance from Microsoft and blogs to configuring Kerberos and Excel Services correctly. Generally everything is running great.
Currently we can add Excel Web Access web parts on SharePoint team site pages and connect them up to SQL 2005 Analysis Cubes for use with doing Pivot Tables, Graphs, etc... As part of this, we have created a test dashboard page that has six of these web parts that display upon page load. However we have noticed that we get intermittent errors when a user does things like refresh the connection or workbook, or change the filter on PivotTables. The user gets a generic error messages such as "An error has occurred. Please contact an administrator." and then their session in Excel Services is hosed up. They have to shut down IE and come back to the site in order to interact successfully with the Excel web parts again.
I have looked at the logs but just see generic messages like "EcsSoapException: An error has occurred." that don't give me something that I can really act on. Also I have checked the application event logs but didn't find anything relevant.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
It turns out this is a bug with Kerberos in Windows 2008. Microsoft has just released a hotfix for this (see link below). The hotfix completely resolved all my issues.
