SP2013 Web Apps: Create Web Applications in Classic Authetication Mode

As you may already be aware, when you create a new web application in SharePoint 2013, it by default creates in claims authentication mode. If you are under going a migration and upgrade from SP2010 to SP2013 and you would first want to create classic authentication web apps to attach the DBs to, here is how:

Create your web application from PowerShell using the following script:

New-SPWebApplication -Name “<WebAppName>” -ApplicationPool “<WebAppPoolName>” -AuthenticationMethod “NTLM” -ApplicationPoolAccount (Get-SPManagedAccount “DOMAIN\SPManagedAccount”) -DatabaseName “<DBName>” -Port <PortNo> -URL http://URL​

Note that if you indicate the port number in the parameter, you don't need to include it in the Url Parameter.

My next blog post talks about converting a web application from classic to claims authentication mode, in SharePoint 2013.

Zambia's first Copper Concentrate Logistics System on SharePoint 2007

Ok so my workmate Charles and I just finished developing a Copper Concentrate Logistics System on SharePoint 2007. Again we do something that has never been done before in Zambia, on SharePoint!!! So here is how it works: First of all, it’s mainly using SharePoint Lists, Views dependent on your log in credentials, InfoPath Forms that pull their data from the SharePoint list based on specific selection criteria. The marketing dept captures the details of the trucks expected to arrive, only after which, the Security personnel will be able to see the details of the expected trucks and authorize entry. This then allows the truck details on empty weight and on loaded weight to be captured to the same system from the Weighbridge and sealing details confirmed.
