Sequencing applications that write to the users profile

Hi
I am sure its possible to capture and sequence applications that write to a users profile but will their be any issues with this ? if it writes to roaming and local area of appdata ?. Do you forsee any issues ?
Thanks

You can read this article by Kirx and see all the pros and cons.
Two conclusions:
For a consistent experience, a UEM solution is required that maintains storing and restoring of non-roaming configuration data
UEM is a must-have for most App-V 5 implementation
So, you can use UE-V or some UEM product to prevent issues.

  • Hi All,i am currently working on a flex application that will allow the user to change the language

    Hi All,i am currently working on a flex application that will allow the user to change the language within the application from english to Japanese and vice versa. And everything works fine.
    I am using flex 4.5
    We allow the user to save records with english or japanese texts.
    problem
    When the user manually enters Japanese text and tries to save it the record defaults back to the default name (which is in english). But if you copy the entered text and paste it and then save it.It works fine.
    Any idea , why this is happening?
    Please let me know if the question is not clear.
    Looks like there was already a bug

    By Payal integration , you mean paypal button html ? or payment gateway setup etc ? If its a gateway configuration for your site domain then single page for all layout will work , but if you are using button code for all renditions then you would need to create separate pages for all.

  • "The user profile service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded."

    I recently purchased a refurbished laptop from MTC (windows 7) and have been trying to remote into the windows systems at my school but I keep receiving this error message.  I'm aware there are dozens of threads on this topic but mine is slightly different.
     Bear with me, I know next to nothing about computers...
    I initially tried to follow the instructions given out by Microsoft (can't add a link here), but when it comes to looking at my S-1-5 directories, I do not have any that end in .bak, nor do I have two equally names ones.  I have one that is a string
    of numbers followed by -1000 and one with the same string of numbers but ending in -500.  
    The -1000 directory is missing the RunLogonScriptSync file, and has my account listed under value name for the ProfileImagePath information.  The -500 directory has the RunLogonScriptSync file and has "Administrator" listed under
    the value name for the ProfileImagePath.  
    In the instructions cited above I tried skipping to step 15 and accessing C:\Users\default\appdata\local\application data but I get an error message saying access is denied.  So I'm thinking there are two administrative accounts on this laptop, but
    when I access the accounts on the laptop I can only see mine.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    the "access denied" message, is making you think this?
    if so, ignore that, since the "access denied" message is a classic MSFT misdirection.
    It is *not* that you don't have access - the path you are trying to navigate to does not actually exist (it is a junction/reparse, not a folder), and, Windows Explorer doesn't follow that nicely, so it throws a misleading error message:
    C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local>dir /AL
     Volume in drive C is Windows7_OS
     Volume Serial Number is C0EB-A540
     Directory of C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local

    Instead, the "user profile service service failed the logon" can be commonly caused by an improperly secured file within any of the other folders (folders which form the Default User profile).
    Here's one which caught me out, and MSFT helped me resolve via a support case, and they blogged it afterwards:

    (my advice to you, is to dive into the event log with eventvwr, and look for an event similar to 1509, which should point you in the right direction for your particular situation)

  • Error - The registration of the service "User Profile Service" has failed. The user profile can not be loaded

    I am running an environment with an Active Directory and Terminal Servers.
    I have searched high and low for resolutions to this error but I cannot find anything related to my situation, let me explain further.
    The fixes I found are related to local users only.
    When I create a new user in the Active Directory I provide the paths to the profile folder in the "Remote Desktop Profile" and "Profile tab"  lets say for example \\ad001\home\%username% and \\ad001\profil\%username% .
    I give rights to the user to read/write the "home" folder which is mapped for folder redirection.  An I know that when the user first logs on it should create a "v2.%username%" folder upon successful logon.  This is when I am
    presented with the error message below:
    "The registration of the service "User Profile Service" has failed. 
    The user profile can not be loaded"
    Does anyone have any experience with this or know a suitable fix.  Again this is for the "Roaming" profile creation no local.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Did you receive for any one user or for all users?
    Have you tried to solve the issue by fixing the user account profile?
    For that you can adjust the registry setting “ProfileImagePath” with
    particular SID of that user under below mention path.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
    Also if this can’t resolve the issue you can try to delete the SID of that user or renaming the old and and then check the result again by creating new profile for that users.
    More information.
    You receive a "The User Profile Service failed the logon” error message

  • Windows 7 very slow logon, Waiting for the User Profile Service, winlogon event 6006

    Hello,
    Every so often one of our Windows 7 clients which is not normally having any delay at logon will take a very long time to login. This may be 10 or 20 minutes or up to an hour in some cases.
    Typically the event log will contain entries like
    The winlogon notification subscriber <Profiles> took 572 second(s) to handle the notification event (Logon).
    There is no further information available from Event Log Online Help, nor any additional detail as to why the logon event was so slow. During the delay the user will just see "Waiting for the User Profile Service" on their screen.
    We first started seeing this problem with Windows Vista and if anything the situation has not improved since then. It has never happened with any of our Windows XP users.
    We are currently planning a migration of computers to Windows 7 but stuff like this which has not been resolved in Windows over a 2 year period will stall that migration. The least improvement is to increase the event notification to give a lot more
    information on why the user profile processing has stalled.

    Hi,
    When did the issue begin to occur? Did it occur after installing certain application or applying certain policy?
    To troubleshoot the issue, please perform the following step.
    1. Restart the machine in Safe Mode with Networking to check whether the system can login quicker.
    2. Type “gpedit.msc” in Search box and press Enter. Navigate to the following location:
    Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->Logon
    Please double click “Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon” policy and disable it.
    3. Perform a
    Clean Boot to check the result.
    Thanks,

  • "%userprofile%\appdata\local" is counted in the users profile

    Hello,
    In our environment we see some strange behavior on laptops. Users report that their user profile is becoming too large. We use the user Profile Management tool from Microsoft.(Limit profiles size - proquota.exe @ 100mb)
    So “%userprofile%\appdata\local” is counted in the users profile.
    After that userprofiles are inconsistant. Users log's on with a TEMP profile or cannot logon anymore.
    This seems just a symptom of a underlying problem. We can solve it by giving the user a new userprofile. But we have seen this problem too frequently now.
    How is it possible that de default variables %LOCALAPPDATA% en %APPDATA% suddenly are missing. The day before the user has no problem. It mostly happens on laptops after a VPN or WIFI connection. It looks like if the connection is lost before the local user
    profile is synchronised to the server profile.
    We also see Event 1530 frequently. Can this be a clue?
    Windows detected your registry file is still in use by other applications or services. The file will be unloaded now. The applications or services that hold your registry file may not function properly afterwards.
    ## user registry handles leaked from \Registry\User\S-1###
    Is the missing of these variables the cause or effect of a corrupt user profile?
    Should we think of leaving roaming profiles for laptops? And look to UE-V or another solution? 
    Giving the user a new user profile is a workarround but not a solution.
    We are using:
     We use Windows 7 x86, latest patches, Office 2010.
     A Windows 2003 domain functional level
     We have an OU in AD wich contains the users and computer in subfolders.
     We use Loopback processing for Group policy so the user policy is linked to the client OU and not to the user OU.
     We user folder redirection to the homeshare (DFS namespace)
     User profiles are on a DFSnamespace but single server.
     We user Offline files for the Homeschare.
    Regards,
    Peter

  • Report based on the user profile

    Hi,
    i'm trying to create a report with Oracle Report6i based on the user profile.
    I created a form with many Lovs, so that i can choose the parameter to send to the report (using a java script).
    I also would like to send the user that's currently logged in, just in order to filter the output.
    How can i use the api wwctx_api.get_user in the java script ?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It is not possible to use the api directly in javascript. Maybe you pass it as a parameter to a javascript function.
    Thanks,

  • How do I prevent "The user profile service service failed the log on" error messages?

    I work for an organization with approximately 60 staff members across ~80 Windows 7 Professional PCs. Users log in with Active Directory accounts.
    Approximately once per month, a random user will get an error message while attempting to log into their machine that says "The user profile service service failed the log on."  The solution to resolve this issue is here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215?ppud=4&wa=wsignin1.0.
    The problem is that I want to PREVENT this issue from happening, as it is incredibly inconvenient for the user. I had one staff member board a 5-hour plane trip expecting to do work, and once she got in the air she logged in and
    received the error message and was unable to use her computer for the trip. I've had others locked out of their computer with deadlines to get things done, while I am at home off the clock. Editing the registry is not an easy fix, and so it's not something
    I can just post instructions for in a knowledgebase article.
    Does anyone know how to prevent this issue from occurring? I believe that it has something to do with a network-based startup script, or a service trying to connect to our file server, or the computer trying to connect to our ad server. All of these
    are blocked by firewalls (unless the user is off-site), and I suspect that the services may be timing out, causing the user profile service service failed the logon error message, but I can't seem to eliminate it, after nearly a year of trying.
    90% of the time this problem occurs when the user is off-site, but it has happened while the user is in the office too. Once the user gets this error message, the only way to resolve the problem is to log into their computer as a localadministrator account
    and perform the method #1 fix in the knowledgebase article.
    Thanks

    Have you checked the logged files in event viewer around the time when problem occurred?
    Is there any suspicious events like error or warning related to this issue.

  • Unable to see Active Directory Groups in the User Profile Database after Profile Import

    ***Major Update - I have finally been able to get the direct attention of the folks responsible for the User Profile Service on the SharePoint Product Team.  Long story short, they have reproduced the error and identified as an actual mistake
    that needs to be fixed, so it is now officially in the bug pipeline and will be fixed.  The current estimate is some time in the summer.  They will keep me updated with timeframes, which I am allowed to share as time goes on.
    SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise RTM. W2K8R2 w/multi-server setup:
    AD/DNS
    SQL 2008
    WFE
    APP
    Claims Mode Web App only using Windows Integrated Auth
    So, this was never a problem in 2007, and I didn't even realize it was a problem in 2010 until I started to build a solution that utilized my blog article:
    InfoPath - User Roles in Browser-Enabled Forms Using AD Groups.  I went to utilize the same web method of the same web service, but I noticed that no data was showing up at all.  Typically,
    the GetUserMembership/GetCommonMembership methods return the specified user's memberships: AD Security Groups, AD Distribution Lists, and SharePoint Sites (not SharePoint Groups, though).
    My user profile sync is working.  All AD users are pulled in with the proper profile data.
    "Users and Groups" is selected in the Synchronization Entities section of my Sync Settings.
    Security groups are working for permissions and audience targeting.  Confirmed my users are affected properly by the use of Security Groups.
    My query to the GetUserMemberships web method (and GetCommonMemberships) is running (not failing), but it's not returning anything even though my user is in some Security Groups and has explicit membership to multiple sites.
    The GetUserProfileByName method of the same UserProfileService.asmx web service
    returns all the regular profile data like expected, so the web service works and my profile database is populated
    Basically, I'm not seeing my AD groups or any membership data populated in the profile database.  I did use MIISCLIENT.exe to see what I could find, and here is what I saw:
    Using the Metaverse Search, I searched for the "person" type and saw all of the users in my profile sync connection (single OU)
    Using the same tool, I searched for the "group" type and saw nothing, but the message said 4 items were retrieved
    I realized that the only column showing was displayName, and they were blank, so I added other columns to be sure
    objectGUID, objectType, distinguishedName all showed values, and I could now see all the Security Groups from the OU where I'm doing my profile sync
    My "person" objects all have displayNames showing but none of the groups do.  In SharePoint, the GetUserMemberships method relies on displayName and accountName, but neither are coming through the profile import
    So, it does seem like the groups are coming in with the profile import, but I can't see them.  I also can't verify that the groups are being associated with my users in the profile database, because doing a query to the membership methods returns nothing...not
    even blank rows.
    ***Edit:  New information!  Regular AD Distribution Lists _do_ work properly.  I just never bothered testing them until folks on my blog notified me.  DLs come through the profile sync, are visible in the profile database, and show up
    when using the GetUserMemberships method.
    ***Edit: Ok, now we're getting somewhere.  I checked my last profile sync with the MIISCLIENT, and this is what I found:
    Here are the properties of my Distribution List:
    Here are the properties of my Security Group:
    Notice that the groupType value of the DL is a normal integer (2), but the groupType value of the SG is some crazy negative number.  Both types are still lacking DisplayNames for some reason, but when I retrieve the DL via GetUserMemberships, it DOES
    show the proper DisplayName despite nothing showing in the MIISCLIENT.

    Hello Clayton,
    I have same problem with SP 2010 and now I am testing SP 2013 and seems that the problem still.aa
    Probably I have some configuration problem, but all seems work, except this.
    SharePoint 2013 has no improvements on this. Until seeing this thread, I thought it was an issue within my farm configuration or AD Service account for User Profile Sync. And I've dug far and wide for any other possible settings which would prevent users
    from populating in the site people-picker. This might be flagged as off-topic, but I'll beg differ. How can I expect SharePoint to retrieve AD Users and Groups for accuracy in the sites which rely on this server??? Frustrating. I've spent hours and days on
    this! I have 3 SP2013 farms with multiple clients (different OU's/containers and security groups). Testing in a separate QA DEV farm with the same config. NO luck yet!
    This is where I'm at with it (posted this as a question recently on SharePoint Stack Exchange):
    "Help.... Please.... Users from AD groups are not populating in the site people picker. I've set up a SharePoint 2013 site collection permissions group with only AD groups in it, no users added directly. Whether or not I give this SharePoint group permissions
    to the site content, I still get none of the AD users showing up in the people picker. I have done the iisreset after adding the groups.
    I've checked all of the people picker properties in stsadm to be sure there are no constraints in effect on the web app or site collections.  User profiles are synching and I've tried both AD import and User Profile Sync.  The AD groups are security
    groups, though not email-enabled.  The AD service account has all the special permissions. My web app is claims based. My app pool runs with Network Service account.  No policies in place to restrict users, checked CA and the site collection settings.
    What am I missing? I've read in multiple places that this is a supported/working config. So why can't I get these users to populate in people picker for things like Assigned To in a tasks list, or attendees of an event? "
    There is some pretty good insight here, but no real hope:
    User profile
    synchronization: importing users and security groups in SharePoint 2010
    Other Properties that I checked, before realizing this was an issue with the Profile Import...
    stsadm -o getproperty -pn siteuseraccountdirectorypath -url https://URL
    stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-activedirectorysearchtimeout -url https://URL

    stsadm -o getproperty -propertyname peoplepicker-serviceaccountdirectorypaths -url https://URL
    Hope we find a better answer, as it IS very misleading. User Profile Import specifies Users, or Users and Groups. Nothing is said about Containers or Distribution Groups, worse yet there lacks any clear disclosure about how "Groups" will not
    actually import if they are a Global Security Group and the users contained within them exclusively will NOT be included in your profiles,
    nor in any compiled Audiences. Which was another BIG bummer!
    I'm hoping to see future improvements on the Group imports.

  • The User Profile Service service failed to Login user Profile error in Windows 7 Home Premium

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new Dell Inspirion 1564 Laptop which had Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installed.
    The hardware configuration is i5 core Processor, 4GB Ram , 320GB HDD and 512MB Graphics card.
    Today morning, I couldn't login as the system returned the following error after I entered the password.
    "The User Profile Service service failed to login.
    User Profile cannot be loaded"
    I couldn't login at all as i had not created any other user account, even the face recognition didn't work.
    I had to restore my pc to the previous state. I believe this happened after the installation of Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 - March 2010 (KB890830) update, not immeditately though as i used the system few times after the installation of this update.
    Is this a bug? I cant imagine if this happens if I am about to give a presentation, its going to be disastrous!
    Any help is appreciated

    I'm getting the same issue - I'm the IT Manager at a school where every student has a laptop (fujitsu tablet T4410). This occurs to at least one new student every day. I have been unable to re-create the issue on demand, although I suspect it occurs when a temporary user profile gets created after the logon process takes too long (due to some disk activity, possibly related to windows updates or some thing). When we were creating student accounts on the machines, this would occur if we attempted to log in the newly created account before the computer had 'settled down' - it seems that there is a logon timeout, after which something stops working. If the new user's first logon happened too soon after booting, the profile would be corrupted. But this doesn't quite explain why it occurs seemingly randomly now.
    My current solution is to boot into safe mode, back up the user's files, delete the account, create it again (the other suggested solutions on the internet did not work)
    If you're desperate, you can log in while in safe mode, and use that to create a new account.
    In any case, this is proving a very bad experience of Windows 7 for my students, and I hope to see a more useful fix for this soon.

  • The user profile service: Service failed the log on. User profile can not be loaded.

    I am running a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain. with 2 domain controllers.
    Every new account created in active directory does not seem to work. Even if the account it copied from one that does still work, it still gives the same error when logging in on a network computer (windows 7). "The user profile service: Service failed
    the log on. User profile can not be loaded."
    I have looked at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947215, which unfortunately does not help. Especially since the SID is not there because the user has not managed to log on yet.

    And I have tried force replication too.
    I have exhausted all my knowledge.

  • The User profile synchronization Full , runs for 1 second successfully

    Hi!
    On our sharepoint 2013 farm we can run the user profile incremental synchronzation timer job without issues, it runs for about 2-3 min.
    However when trying to run a Full import, we observe that the full user profile synchhronization job only runs for a second and is finished. There must be something wrong..
    The user profile service and synchronzation service are up and running. The connections to Active directory are present and working (incremental synchronization works).
    Have anyone experienced this?

    Hello Bjorn,
    You should not run Full incremental until anything on UPA is broken. It should be only ran in case of disaster and recovery.

  • Anyone tried using LDIF file in the User Profile Synchronization Process?

    Microsoft pushied an article recently talking about using LDIF file in the SharePoint's user profile synchronization. 
    Configure profile synchronization using a Lightweight Directory Interchange Format (LDIF) file (SharePoint Server 2010) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff959234.aspx
    Currently I am unable to obtain the required "Replicate Directory Change" permission set up by the AD admin.  So I thought of exploring this alternative since I still have AD search permission right now.
    So far, I was able to set up the MOSSLDAP-LDIFMA, and use an import.ldif file to add, remove and update user profiles.  However, there are some problems that I can't resolve.  One of key problems is, the LDIF-imported records can't be
    sync'd with login-based records.
    In my environment, when a user login SharePoint via Windows authentication, a new profile would be added, under the account name "domain\username".  Meanwhile, when an LDIF record imported, there will be another profile created under the account
    name "domain:domain\username", or "domain:username".  That is, there would be two profiles for each user.
    Based on my understanding, it is very likely the user profile synchronization is based on the user's account name.  But in document and sample files provided, I can't find out any clue how to prepare the ldif file so that it will update the
    matching records, instead of creating new ones.
    Any help?  Thanks in advance.

    Has anyone managed to get this to work?
    It's nice that Microsoft offers the ability to import user profiles via LDIF into SharePoint, but it is useless if the account name is not correct after the import. I have tried multiple imports from the LDIF to get a user account to show up as  "domain\username" but
    it always ends up as "domain:domain\username", or "domain:username".  or a variation
    of these 2 with a colon separating the domain form the username. i see that multiple people have had the same problem, but unfortunetaly can't seem to find a solution. Also I see Bradley mentions that he was able to import accounts using get-QADUser,
    but he doesnt mention what the accounts import as or if it resolved the domain colon issue.
    Thanks in advance for any help or information anyone can provide.
    cheers,
