if you want to modify the MySite URL to point to a new URL Or MySite URL is showing wrong in office application Eg:Outlook

  • [アーティクル]

UAT Mysite url are created for users during the testing phase. The new production MYSITE url is not updated in AD "Web Page" attribute and outlook's "View My Site..." feature

For certain users it is pointing to an old development server.

 

If you basically wants to know from where the VIEW Mysite url is being picked.

 

This what i did to find where the details were stored

 

Built a test windows XP machine with SP3 and latest security updates and installed office 2007 SP2 and office communicator

Then joined the server to the domain

Downloaded the process monitor and configured the outlook settings

Opened a new email and right clicked on the user and click on "View My site" option and gathered the logs for the first time when we click on that option of “View My site”

My Site URL was https://kar-sps-iis:35000/personal/petrina

Note: I had not browsed the site nor configured it any time. Found that it modifies the following register entries when i click on view my site option in outlook

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Portal

Name PersonalSiteURL

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000/personal/petrina

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Server Links\Published\MySiteHost\My Site

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data : https://kar-sps-iis:35000/personal/petrina

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Server Links\Published\MySiteHost\Profile Site

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000/Person.aspx?user=

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Portal\Link Providers\MySiteHost

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000

Then I wanted to change my MYSITE URL to another Farm which was as at https://MySharepointSite

So the change the below register entry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Portal

Name PersonalSiteURL

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000/personal/petrina

changed it to

https://MySharepointSite:80/sites/petrina/

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Server Links\Published\MySiteHost\My Site

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data : https://kar-sps-iis:35000/personal/petrina

changed it to

https://MySharepointSite:80/sites/petrina/

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Server Links\Published\MySiteHost\Profile Site

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000/Person.aspx?user=

changed it to

https://MySharepointSite:80/Person.aspx?user=

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Portal\Link Providers\MySiteHost

Name Url

Type: REG_SZ

Data :https://kar-sps-iis:35000

changed it to

https://MySharepointSite/

Then when I reopened outlook and then when I created a new mail and typed in the user name and right clicked on the user and clicked on view my site and it took me to

https://MySharepointSite:80/sites/petrina/

 

Hope this helps!!!

    There must be an easier way to configure this in outlook itself. Do you know where to do this rather than modifying registry on one machine?

    I created the following file and named it with .REG extention. Then merged into registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice14.0CommonServer LinksPublishedMy SiteProfile Site] "LinkType"=hex(b):00,00,00,00,00,00,00,01 "IsMember"=dword:00000000 "IsPublished"=dword:00000001 "Url"="http://mysitesurl/Person.aspx?user="

    Great article Paul - thanks! I can't seem to find "Server Links" or "Portal" under the "Common" path in Registry. This is a Windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013. I'm trying to update a link to SharePoint 2013 on-prem User Profile. When checking with Process Monitor while clicking the "Contact Card" it points to a registry key "UseRWHlinkNavigation" under HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice15.0Internet. Tried updating that to the correct URL but it gets overwritten next time I click the Contact Card SharePoint link. Any suggestion how can I fix the link?

    Appreciate any feedback!
