How to Update Picture column in User Information List?

Hi,
The user updated his profile picture in mysite about 10 days ago. The updated picture is shown on his mysite but the same is not in sync with User Information List. The 2 timer job which takes care of the profile synchronization are scheduled as below:
Profile Synchronization : hourly
Quick Profile Synchronization : every 2 minutes
And both the timer job status are shown as successful, yet the picture url is not updated.
Can anyone kindly let me know is there any way to update the same manually.
Please note that the version of SharEPoint is 2007 and Windows server 2003.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Sheetal Lomate,
It is correct to check the profile synchronization jobs to make sure profile information syncs between user profiles and user information list.
If it is still not synced, please use the following stsadm command:
stsadm –o sync –listolddatabases <x number of days>
If one or more content databases show up in this list, clean up the list, they can be added to the list again:
stsadm –o sync –deleteolddatabases <x number of days>

User Profile email address not updated on Site Collection User Information

Hi All,
Ok here we go....SharePoint 2007 with SSP profile sync not enabled, however I have a few profiles I need to update (email address). This has been completed by editing the user profile in SSP, but when viewing the information via Site Collection >
People & Groups > User Information "Work E-mail" is still showing the old one.
All alerts are still being sent to the old email address, SSP DB UserProfile_Full shows the new email address as per SSP.
Anyone know where else user profile emails are stored which is used by Exchange?
Many Thanks, Roger

As per the following post from GuYuming
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/319d5b0e-336a-4815-9ee5-5d1685db867f/how-to-send-sharepoint-alerts-to-users-on-different-domain?forum=sharepointadminlegacy
After the email address in SharePoint user profile is updated to [email protected], you have to wait until
they are synchronized into the user information list in SharePoint site collections so that alert can be sent to that address. For detail, please read http://vspug.com/mirjam/2009/06/17/user-profiles-and-the-user-information-list-or-userinfo-table/ and http://blogs.technet.com/paulpaa/archive/2009/10/01/user-profile-information-not-updated-on-site-collection-s-people-and-group.aspx

User profile service not updating 'Title' in user information list

Hi,
In our SharePoint farm, following two user profile sync timer jobs are successfully running but not updating the 'Title' in the hidden user information list.
User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
User Profile to SharePoint Quick Synchronization.
Can someone point me to the right direction? Please note that I don't want to use powershell script shown here to update the 'Title' in the user information list -

Hi,
There are two jobs, User Profile to SharePoint Quick Sync and User Profile to SharePoint Full Sync, that synchronize the User Profile database information with the user information list. Sometimes this stops working (properly) and in that case
you need to run:
Stsadm.exe –o sync –listolddatabases 0
Stsadm.exe –o sync –deleteolddatabases 0
The first command will display all the databases and when they have been sync’d last.
The second command will delete the records corresponding to those databases (it doesn't delete databases/end user data).
Anyways, running this will basically tell the timer jobs that they have never sync’d and force them to carry on as if it’s the first time.
Go to Central Admin and fire off the User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
job.
For detailed information, refer to the following article:

How to add user information list in site page using out of box

Hi,
Kindly suggest me any solutions or reference links regarding adding user information list in one of the site pages using out of box.
Thanks
Razvi444

Hello Razvi444,
it is not clear what you are trying to accomplish, but for your information User Information List could be find under <your_site>/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0. If you would
like to display all user on the page you need to develop a custom web part and using the aforementioned URL all user could be displayed on your page.
Or you could also edit the page and insert a link (/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0), set a description. SharePoint will name it people.aspx. After that you could "Edit Source" and rename it accordingly.
Let me know if this one is helpful.
Enjoy!

Sharepoint 2010 Content Deployemnt Job issue with duplicate fields in User information List

Hi friends,
I am facing below issue with the content deployment job.
It was working earlier. But now since from couple of days all the content deployment jobs in production environment are failing with below error.
Field name already exists. The name used for this field is already used by another field in the list. Select another name and try again.
ObjectName="User Information List".
When I check the fields in User information list in targeted site, I found couple of columns are dupicate like "ask me about",first name","Last name" etc.
Do i Need to drop target site collection or recreate with fresh content deployment job.
Please suggest.
Please help .
Regards
Subrat

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got duplicate field error.
Based on the error message, you can try to use the following code sample to remove duplicate records, and check whether it works:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointgeneralprevious/thread/41ee04bd-91fb-4bf9-932a-bac42c56c357
Here is a similar issue, you can also use the ‘RemoveDuplicateColumn64’ provided:
http://sharepointsurfer.wordpress.com/2012/04/27/how-to-fix-publishing-site-content-deployment-error-duplicate-first-name-column/
What’s more, as you had said, you can recreate a site with a fresh deployment job.
Thanks & Regards,

Validate "work e-mail" from user information list --give me wrong result

How can I validate the user "work email" from User Information List is working
properly?
I am following this >> http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/e4d41f77-c7e4-40ef-b85f-de7f972f2a3f/allow-submitter-see-only-the-items-that-are-relevant-to-him-in-drop-down-list?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious#4d63b721-7acb-463a-b578-87eb1d72b5f1

\username domain \username (example: americas\admin_andress_belloamericas\admin_andress_belloamericas\admin_andress_bello)
CRISTINA&amp MICROSOFT Forum

Hi,
How did you validate the work e-mail?
I recommend to set another text field to get the email of the user from User Information List and then use the text field for validation.
Could you please provide an example of your requirement for reproducing this issue?
Thanks,

I identified the issue
"camlqry.set_viewXml" is a method (camlqry.set_viewXml()) not a property (as apposed to C#).
The above should be like "camlqry.set_viewXml(querystring)" instead of "camlqry.set_viewXml =qrystring".

Sharepoint 2010: user information list Vs user profile

I wrote code for getting user details based on username. I am fetching data from user profile using user profile service. But recently I came to know about "user information list" which stores same data as that of user profile.
So, My question is which will be better choice : user profile service OR user information list to get user information ?

User Information list has limitation, firstly its hidden, it can be viewed only administrators.
Also you will face issue when you migrate your application to SharePoint 2013.
If you want quick way of know who has permissions you can use this list, but sometime you may end up with outdated user profile(properties) information.
Better try to use User profile service wherever possible.
there is another discussion on this topic here -

How to update a column value by comparing old value by using DML Handler...

Hi Can anyone post the DML Handler code for updating a column value by comparing the old value.
Thanks,
Ray

Hi,
Here is an example of a DML handler.
BEGIN
DBMS_APPLY_ADM.SET_DML_HANDLER(
object_name => 'scott.emp',
object_type => 'TABLE',
operation_name => 'UPDATE',
error_handler => false,
user_procedure => 'strmadmin.update_column',
apply_database_link => NULL,
apply_name => 'MY_APPLY');
END;
This DML handler which will send any LCR matching the specified conditions to the strmadmin.update_column for customised processing.
You can write the strmadmin.update_column procedure so that it extracts the old values from the LCR. You can then use the old values from the LCR to identify the row in the table. Once you identify the row, you can update it as you want.
I haven't really tried to do any customised processing using DML handlers, but this should work.
Hope this is of help.

How to update a column which has 35 millions of rows?

Hi everyone
need help
I am updating a column which has 35 millions of records. When i start update, it is taking like > 60 mins and its not stoping (finishing).
I need to null that column A, and update that column A with the other column B values.
Thanks
kumar

Three common causes for big updates that are slow:
blocking. You can check whether the UPDATE is waiting on another connection to release locks using sp_who2
improperly sized log file. A big update may use of a lot of log space. If you log file is too small, and you have auto-grow enabled (which is the default setting), it will grow whenever needed. But this takes a lot of extra time. You can easily see this
when you view the file size of the log file
if the column you are updating is indexed, the engine may also you tempdb a lot, so tempdb may also grow a lot, which would take a lot of additional time. This is also easy to check by inspecting tempdb's file size
