SharePoint 2013/2010 does not accept AD credentials

I had the below message from a client:

When trying to browse to the SharePoint Intranet site, it keeps asking my credentials and not accept it. I’m sure my credential is correct and I have a full access permission to this site.

Solution:

You need to Disable Loopback check:

1.       In the SharePoint Server, click Start >  Run > type "regedit"   ( to open the Registry Editor)

2.       In Registry Editor, open  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa

3.       Right-click on Lsa, > New, and then click DWORD Value. (If your SharePoint is running on Windows 2008, then you should select DWORD 32bit)

4.       Name it  DisableLoopbackCheck

5.       Right-click on  DisableLoopbackCheck, and click Modify.

6.       In the Value data box, type 1 and then OK.

7.       The SP site will accept the credentials.

Intranet is working !!!!!

Hope it helps,

The JavaScript code with JQuery stopped working after SP update - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'onchange' of null

After installation of SP update, we noticed that the JavaScript code with JQuery stopped working.

 Looking at the Developer tools, here is the error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'onchange' of null

We have found this link which helped uo to fix the issue

It was because, If you have a required field  in your SharePoint list and you make a reference to the form control in the EditForm.aspx page. You will get a javascript ‘null’  error stating that the script is unable to find the value.

 Solution:

1. Get a list of all required fields in your list.
2. Edit your JavaScript code and  find the fields 
3. In your JavaScript code, change the Column name(s)  to ‘CoumnName Required Field’.

Hope it helps
