Sitecore XP 10.3 - Some installation errors which i encountered for the first time

Hi Team,

This one will be very quick blog post around some of the issues i encountered during Sitecore 10.3 installation, Specially around SOLR

I have not got these issues in previous version and these were something new i encountered so drafting a quick post around it if it helps some of you save some time.

Also surprisingly, did not get this in error in later versions too like 10.4 

Below are the errors which i encountered 

1) Certificate Chain Was Issued by an Authority That is Not Trusted 


I never had this issue before, As generating certificate is backed in the script, but i still got this, so did little research around it and i found some Stack Exchange discussion, but i followed the same steps and it got resolved for me too, Though they are for older versions

Basically, I had to modify xconnect-xp0.json file, Search "InvokeSqlcmd" in it add "TrustServerCertificate": true to its "Params" property. You will find multiple matches for "InvokeSqlCmd", Do the same change for all of it.

2) Unable to connect to a remote server

Another one, which i was getting was unable to connect to a remote server, Well my internet was working fine, everything was ok, But was again not sure why it is not able to connect to SOLR to download the SOLR package for installation


What worked for me was

I turned off firewall security just for this installation and it worked, there could be better ways, but this worked for me and i was able to install it successfully 

You can tryother alternatives given here

Thank you

401.1 Unauthorized with windows authentication error code 0xc000006d

How many of you have faced this hosting issue when you do everything what it takes to run the site with windows authentication but still you are getting the same error again and again? If you think you also have faced the same issue and you tired of reading MSDN KBs for it and still have not found the issue (If KB has solved the issue, well and good, if not you can try this trick),Please Read below Typical scenario In typical hosting with IIS, i did every possible things like enabling windows authentication, changing it in web.config, configuring connection pool, authorization rules, it asks me for window authentication login and despite of entering correct credentials it always fails and keeps on asking for login, and when pressed cancel it gives 401.1 with 0xc000006d error code Solution (Which worked for me at-least after trying for almost 6-9 hrs) You need to change the Loop Back Check in registry so that it allows the host names which you are giving in url are allowed and au...

An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.

You have noticed many times that everything was working fine and suddenly the below error starts coming and you find no way to work it out An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details. The reason for this is the receiving size of WCF service is smaller then the data which is coming from service It was working before because it was small,So you will have to try to increase the receiving setting in your end point,Possible settings can be following maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferSize="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" That would definately help you!!!

Sitecore SXA "Add here" button not available and not able to move components from experience editor

 Hi Folks, Hope you all are doing just fine and getting yourself vaccinated and staying home, Today i would like to share one information or a scenario which we encountered last week. Scenario We are using Sitecore SXA (Version is not important here as it will same for all), and one of our content author logged a bug that, they neither able to see "Add here" button on specific place holder nor they are able to move the component on the page in different location, Move option was disabled, and they wanted to have a freedom of moving component here and there and also "Add here" is a vital functionality to add component to specific place holders.   Troubleshooting With my surprise as i have never seen this behavior before,  1) I first check their access rights but they had all of needed permissions and they were able to do things normally before. 1) I started looking into place holder restriction and different settings of allowed renderings to see if there are no such ...
