Cloud Access Manager 8.1.2 - How To Configure Microsoft Sharepoint

Troubleshooting

Persistent cookies in Microsoft® SharePoint™

By default, SharePoint™ uses persistent cookies which enable a user to shut down an internet browser, and then re-open it while maintaining their original session. However, if a user does not fully log out of SharePoint™, the situation can arise where a different user can access the original account using the same internet browser.

Debugging claims provider trust issues in Microsoft® SharePoint™ 2013

If you encounter access or permissions issues when you try to log into SharePoint using Cloud Access Manager, tracing the root of the issue can be difficult. ULS Viewer is a helpful free utility that shows the SharePoint logs in real time as you perform tasks in SharePoint and will clearly report errors such as problems with the trust certificate chain. You can download it from:

Using an internal certificate authority

If you are deploying Cloud Access Manager and SharePoint internally and you choose to use your own certificate authority (CA), you will need to configure a trust for this CA in SharePoint. This may also be necessary if you use any external certificate authority not on the published list of Trusted Certificate Authorities.

To configure a trust for your internal certificate authority
1
On your SharePoint server navigate to Central Administration console | Security | General Security | Manage Trust.
2
Add a new trust.
3
Upload your CA’s root signing certificate.
