Roaming profile not copying

We are using Windows XP SP2, ZFD 3.2 SP3 and Roaming profiles configured
through user policy package (set to copy profile to user's netware home
directory). When logoff/restart or shutdown the xp workstation, we get
"Windows cannot update your roaming profile. Possible causes of this error
include network problems or insufficient rights. If this problem persists,
contact your network administrator"
Detail: The system cannot find the path specified.
There are two messages in Event Viewer:
- Event ID 1504 - same error as above
- Event ID 1509 - Windows cannot copy file C:\Documents and
Settings\...\ntuser.ini to \\Zen1\profile\...
Detail: The system cannot find the path specified.
I looked at the userenv.log but it didn't mean much to me.
Any ideas?

We experience the same message, reinstalled the ZfdAgent.msi install, and
now we never see the message. The problem is caused by the installation
of the Novell Client or the patches for the Client because they save over
top of some of the Zen files.

Roaming Profiles not working when Lenovo Hotkey Client Loader is running on Win 8.1 laptops

This issue seems to be Windows 8.1 related. Specifically it is affecting all our X1 Carbon, and T440S laptops running Windows 8.1, but NOT 430S running Windows 7. Basically roaming profiles were creating the proper folder on the file server but the folders were empty. Through trial and error, I narrowed it down to the "Lenovo Hotkey Client Loader" as listed in msconfig or Program Files\Lenovo\HotKey\TPHKLoad.exe. Once that service was disabled, the roaming profiles would copy over properly. I am running the latest and greatest version of "Hotkey Features Integration for Windows 8.1" Ver 5.25.0000. Wondering if anyone else is seeing this? Wondering how significant TPHKLoad.exe is? And wondering if we'll see an update to the Features pack to correct this? Hopefully this post can help some others who are looking at empty roaming profile folders.

Hi all,
A
After few months, problem occurred again and i could not install the windows from the scratch over and over again.
I started searching problem online and eventually i found the FIX.
Looks like Registry Entries are getting screwed up somehow.
My "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProvider" was looking exactly as below:
", schannel.dll"
And i made it as below:
"msapsspc.dll,
schannel.dll, digest.dll, msnsspc.dll, credssp.dll"
The solution for the other person in the link ( cannot share link since site does not allow me to ) as a source was only missing "credssp.dll" whereas i was missing everything except "schannel.dll". Strange...
============================
Adding credssp.dll to the list of SecurityProviders in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders
fixed it for me.
My full registry entry now reads "msapsspc.dll,
schannel.dll, digest.dll, msnsspc.dll, credssp.dll"
============================

Roaming profile not working anymore

hi
im definitely shure, in a earlier version of ZCM 10.0, the Roaming Profile to the Home directory did work and so, i never checked this since then.
now i updated to 10.3.1 and roaming profile does not work anymore. the local profile gets not copied to the Home-Directory on the server, it doesnt depends, if i have the "Edir Home" set or the real path to the directory.....
where can i start to search for this problem ? i was so shortly to go "productiv".......but no, there is again a delay after 6 Months waiting and testing....:-(
it's so sad ! Zenworks is not that quality product it was.....
Sascha

hi craig
sorry, about not enough informations.....
- no, all clients are only in the E-Dir
- Clients are Windows XP SP2 with Novell Client 4.9 SP2, but tested also higher ones...
- Home-directory is on a Netware 6.5 SP8
- ZCM Server is SLES 10 SP3 without OES
thanks

Roaming profiles not roaming correctly

is the second computer joined/logging on to the domain. have her log in with user@domain to me it sounds like perhaps even if computer 2 is joined to the domain its logging in locally. I could be wrong if so delete all the local profiles off the local computer. Another idea is perhaps you created her folder in the server and you copied the user profiles off of computers the first time? Do other policies in group policy effect new employee? Is she in the same organizational unit in AD?

I have roaming profiles/redirected folders setup for 5 users and everything is working fine. I just setup a new employee and on workstation1 (Win 7) her profile is called "User.Domain" and on workstation2 (Win 7) its called "User." This causes an Outlook problem where it cannot find the OST file.
I've tried deleting the profiles off both workstations and starting from scratch but it just recurs again. Note - I delete the profiles by using Computer > Properties > Advanced System Settings > Advanced > User Profile - Settings.
Server is 2008 R2 and the roaming profile is named "User.V2"
I cannot figure out what to google. Everything I try isn't coming up with this specific problem.
Help if you have a minute?
Thanks.

Roaming Profiles Not Working

Hello, we recent migrated our file server to Server 2012 R2. Everything went smooth until I noticed users' account we're getting their Roaming Profiles when launching a Citrix application/session. They're being logged into the Citrix servers with the
'TEMP' profile. Upong logon, I'm seeing the error below thrown in the App logs of the Citrix server:
Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile will not be copied to the server when you log off. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient
security rights.
DETAIL - Access is denied.
Each user account's 'Profile' and 'Remote Desktop Services Profile' tab are using the same UNC path to their profile folder. I've checked the share permissions of the parent folder which I gave 'Everyone' 'Full Control' and I've checked the security permissions
of the users' folders. Each user has 'Full Control' of their folder. What's a bit stranger is that I also have their account configured to map a drive to the same profile folder which works when they launch an application in Citrix. They can browse the folder,
create sub-folders and files, etc.. So while the error suggests that it could be a permissions issue, the fact they can do all this within the mapped drive contradicts that idea. Also, my Domain Admin account is able to access my roaming profile which would
also suggest a permissions issue, but like I said, I think all the share and security permissions are fine.
Is there anything else that may be affecting why the profiles aren't being copied to the Citrix servers and causing this error? Is there a Local Security Policy setting that would weigh in on this? We do harden these servers so I was wondering if it's something
of that nature?

Windows Domain Controller on Windows Server 2012 R2: Hyper-V roaming profiles not loading due to slow connection

I have racked my brain and done everything that I know to do for about two weeks now. I am setting up a new system at our fire department and I am having the worst luck with getting the workstations to login to the domain controller with roaming
profiles. It keeps telling me that the roaming profile could not be loaded because of a slow connection. These are workstations that are connected directly to the switch that the DC is connected to. I have tried multiple connections regarding
the layout (DC into the router, router into the switch). The router is a Cisco RV220W. I have two VLANS, one for public and one for private domain. The Private VLAN has DHCP turned off since I am providing it through the DC. I currently
have a connection from the Private VLAN going to the unmanaged switch that the workstations and server are plugged into.
The server is a Dell PowerEdge R420 that has 6 NIC ports (1 dual port and 1 quad port). I have a virtual switch setup on Hyper-V for an external port (let's say Card 2 Port 3) that is assigned to the WS 2012R2 Domain Controller. The DC can see
the internet fine and the workstations can connect to the shared folders on the server. I can retrieve files by just using the computer name or FQDN. The DC is also running DNS and DHCP. The DNS has the _msdcs setup from when I installed
the active directory role. I have attempted to assign static IP addresses to the workstations:
IP:                     10.0.0.80
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:        10.0.0.12
I've attempted "append the specific DNS suffix", I've "registered the connection in DNS", I've used "use this connections suffix in DNS registration".
The server is assigned:
IP:                     10.0.0.12
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:         10.0.0.12
The DNS entries have forwarders that forward to my ISP DNS servers for lookup
I've enabled and disabled DHCP, I've installed a new VM just to create another DC to make sure that I didn't goof up when I created it.
I've lost my patience with this project and am sinking fast. Can someone please offer some advice as to what I've done wrong? I've created this exact scenario at work many times but, I've never done it with Windows Server 2012. Is this
possibly something to do with the Dell PowerEdge server (Generation 12) with the SR-IOV? I am going to attempt to work on it some more tomorrow when I get over there. I think there may be an issue with the SR-IOV not being enabled on the machine
through the Dell Bios. Would the SR-IOV really cause the workstations to report a slow connection? When I login at the domain controller the roaming profiles and folder redirection work fine so, I know the GPO settings are correct. I don't
have "ignore slow connections" or any of those GPO's set. I need to get it working the correct way so, I didn't want to fool the server when there is another underlying problem. Any help that someone can offer, I am more than willing
to listen. If you need more information, please ask.
Thanks,
Jay

So, I've managed to research this some more since Thursday and I've come to the conclusion that Hyper-V does a horrible job of supporting Qualcomm NIC cards. That's the only thing I can conclude as far as where the issue is originating. I've read many
post and walkthroughs but nothing that has helped. The issue wasn't with any settings in the domain controller. The issue was that there really is a slow connection originating at the domain controller that is a VM and has network connectivity through the
virtual switch from Hyper-V. So, next question is, how do I get the DC to have better connectivity through the NIC that Hyper-V won't give it? If hyper-v would allow passthrough, this would be so much simpler. VM-ware is looking really good at this point.
Im disappointed in MS right now.

Roaming profiles not created while the creation of user account

Hello,
Our file server (running windows server 2003) is hosting Roaming profiles for users (in active directory running 2003). And that worked just fine till this week, when trying to create some users, we figured out that their roaming profiles are not created
(after their first logon the the domain of course)
We checked out the NTFS permissions and the SMB share permissions, and everything looks correct.I have even modified the permissions as Microsoft recommands. But still nothing has changed.
What could be the problem? or where to look for some paths to troubleshoot this problem??
Thanks in advance!
Lotfi BOUCHERIT

Hi Lotfi B,
According to your description
the user, is not able to access the share from the Explorer, as Awinish said, there may be a network or Firewall issue.
Please try to troubleshoot the network issue referring to the following article:
Troubleshoot network connection problems
In addition, it would be helpful if you could help to collect the following information:
Could the old users access the share?
Did the GPResult show the GPO had applied successfully? Please run
Gpresult /h > C:\temp\gpresult.html (“C:\temp\”is the path of the gpresult.html,
you can set it yourself) in Command Prompt, the file gpresult.html is used for checking the resultant of Group Policy information.

Local and Roaming profiles not being created

Hello all,
I'm in need of help and I wondered if there was anyone out there with some suggestions.
The problem is that one of our sites has Netware 5 and Zfd3.2 and there are no longer any roaming profiles or local profiles being created. Volatile user is not used. Roaming profiles go to the users home directory. All file rights are fine. DLU is still working. Novell client on W2K workstations is 4.90. All other sites appear to be OK.
I suspected that the user policy was at fault and so created a test user package and associated a test user to it = same result.
I have checked from top to bottom and compared all settings to other sites and can see no difference or anything unusual. I've been working on this for 2 days now and I'm going grey and bald.
Any suggestions anyone?
I'll buy a pint for anyone with the answer - LOL.
Thanks in advance

Roaming profiles not working from time to time

We have 6 Terminal servers and at random on the servers and at random with the users, the roaming profile will not be delete after the users log off.
The folder that remains in the user folder, this folder however is empty, not even hidden folders or files are present: C:\Users\"username"\AppData\LocalLow\Microsoft\CryptnetUrlCache
What we have tried is to run a log off script that has following in it "net stop CryptSvc" but this also does not work. We have had 6 users again today that had the problem. All on different servers.
We can manually delete the users folders without any problems when the problem occurs but this is not something that we would like to do every day.
I see a lot of similar problems but nowhere a real solution for this.
Ah the event viewer:

Thank you for your answer.
The entry in that registry key remains indeed there. Is it safe to just remove that registry key when the user is no longer logged into that specific server?
The KB that you have send me is with the following explanation:
Notes
This issue occurs when the Windows Search service is enabled.
When this issue occurs, the registry subkey that represents the stale user profile is deleted. This subkey appears in the following location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
But we do not have the Windows Search service installed nor is it enabled in the services list? But the subkey does remain in the registry.
With kind regards,

Roaming Profile Not Syncing with Windows XP Clients

I'm running an XServe with 10.4.8 as a PDC, with some XP systems authenticating to it. I don't have problems logging in or viewing the user's profile, but any files saved to the desktop are no longer accessible at the next login. If I create a file and store it in the user's profile desktop directory on the file server, the file does appear on the desktop the next time the user logs in. The profiles are stored on a Linux server running SMB, as are the home directories, which work fine. I'm not sure where to be looking to solve this.

Beginning with Windows XP SP2, Microsoft has disabled Basic authentication by default in an effort to increase security. Unfortunately their Digest authentication is broken so you can't connect using that authentication scheme either.
The following link shows you how to edit the registry to add a key in Windows XP to enable Basic authentication which will allow you to connect a Windows XP client to a Mac OS X Server using WebDAV.
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/sp2netwk.mspx#EIN AE
From that page:
You can enable BasicAuth by adding the following registry key and setting it to a non-zero value:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM
\CurrentControlSet\Services \WebClient\Parameters\UseBasicAuth (DWORD)
To restore the default behaviour:
If you delete the registry key or set it to 0, the behavior reverts to the default, or disabling the use of BasicAuth.

Roaming profiles does't work with ZCM 10.3.3

Hi,
We have Zenworks Configuration management 10.3.3. Fully patched. We have also latest zenworks agents 10.3.3.44426.
Our roaming profiles does not work any more after we patched zenworks agents.
Now our existing Roaming Profiles do not update any more. No matter where profiles are stored (linux, netware or windows).
We have DLU Policy and Roaming Profile Policy. If I delete the user account and its
profile on the client, the account will be recreated by DLU-Policy and
the Roaming Profile gets copied to the server once. After that no changes will be synced.
It looks it has something with Novell client. If you don't have Novell Client on workstation, everything works fine.
I try also simulate this problem in test environment. Same problems.
I am now asking Novell. How it is possible that patch for this is not available ? It looks users has this problems more than half year.
Are we the only one on this world who are using roaming profiles with Zenworks ?
Any ideas ?
Roman

I knew, I am the only one on this world who are using roaming profiles with Novell client.
But that is only one of a tousands bugs with Novell Zenworks.
And novell support ? They need at least two weeks or more to setup one zenworks server and one XP workstation with novell client and test this.
They are now somewhere in the middle of installing windows XP workstation.

Roaming Profile at User level simply not copying...no error

Little rusty on setting this up but if I recall if I choose to setup roaming profiles at the user object level then I simply need to create a share with the appropriate share/NTFS permissions then assign the UNC path in the Profile tab in ADUC? We
are running Win 2008 R2 with Win 7 SP1 clients.
If this is correct then I have done this and the profile will simply not roam...no errors in event log, the test user simply logs in and has a normal local profile. While I am logged in as this user I can access the above UNC and create a folder so
I think permissions are ok.
Originally this computer and test user were in an OU where I set a GPO setting up Folder Redirection. Thinking that I possibly configured something incorrectly there I moved the user and computer object to a basic OU where only the default domain policy
is applied. No change.
I don't remember getting this part working to be such a hassle so I am at a loss now how to troubleshoot further.
Thanks

Hi,
Since Roaming Profile doesn’t work correctly, and you could not find any error in the event logs. At this time, I suggest you’d better first check for the correct permissions on the profile
share. In addition to logging events in the Application Event log, User Profiles can provide a detailed log to aid troubleshooting. To create a detailed log file for user profiles:
1. Start regedit and locate the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
2. Create a new value called UserEnvDebugLevel as a REG_DWORD, and set the value to 30002 in hexadecimal format.
The log file can be found at: %windir%\debug\usermode\userenv.log
Regarding how to troubleshoot Roaming Profile issue, please try to refer to the following article to see if it helps.

Firefox Error with Roaming Profiles "Could not initialize the application's security component"

Hi there
I get the common error "Could not initialize the application's security component" when I startup Firefox.
I tried this manual: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/couldnt-initialize-applications-security-component
I have enough space left, i have read/edit/write-rights, created a new firefox profile and also reset all the settings, nothing works.
BUT I dont have a cert8.db File in my %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
What can I do?
Like I said in my description, its about Users that are logged in with a Roaming-Profile. Every User has this problems, it doesn't matter if or without Admin-Rights.
Also this problem exists since Firefox 4.0.0, the last working Version was 3.6.13 I guess.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
Try to remove or rename secmod.db (secmod.db.old) in the Firefox profile folder.
If that didn't help then also rename the cert8.db file to cert8.db.old or delete the cert8.db file to remove intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored.
If that helped to solve the problem then you can remove the renamed cert8.db.old file.<br />
Otherwise you can rename (or copy) the cert8.db.old file to cert8.db to restore the previous intermediate certificates.<br />
Firefox will automatically store intermediate certificates when you visit websites that send such a certificate.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 25: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

Roaming Profile are not stored completely

Hello NG
In our environment we work with NWClient 2 SP1 IR9, ZCM11 SP1a and Roaming
profile is activated by a ZCM policy.
Now we have the problem, that when a user logout from the workstation, the
roaming profile is not stored completely to the home profile. Strange is,
that the ntuser.dat has an updated times
The homedirectory where the roaming profiles should be stored is a NSS
volume.
On the workstation evenviewer i saw following interesting information.
Event ID 1509
Source \\?\C:\Users\MichelB\Favorites\Links
Target \\?\UNC\SERVER2$NOCSC$\HOMEL\USERS/MichelB\Windows NT 6.1 Workstation
Profile.V2\Favorites\Links
Error The system can not found the path
Source \\?\C:\Users\MichelB\Favorites
Target \\?\UNC\SERVER2$NOCSC$\HOMEL\USERS/MichelB\Windows NT 6.1 Workstation
Profile.V2\Favorites
Error The system can not found the path
etc. this happens for all folders in the profile path.
Then event ID 1534 is diplayed that says there was too many copy errors.....
And at last the Event ID 1504 that says that the roaming profile couldn't be
updated completely
I suppose that here the Novell Client has problems to write to the NSS
volume
Somebody can help me to solve this issue?

I can demonstrate that clearing down local profiles (net user <username> /delete and rd c:\users\<username>) allows the user to log in again without any issues, but usually they can do this only once or twice before the profile blows out.
Our students are very mobile and a typical day will be 9.00-10.00 lessons, 10.00-10.30 LRC, 10.30-12.30 lessons (different class room) ........
This was identified in September when the students returned from break and we have had the issues for nearly 4 months.
Our machines are built via zen imaging, the client and agent are then installed with the appropriate enabling software for the machine (zoomtext/jaws/dragon/read&write).
Can anybody give me any pointers on this as my tech support and novell (via a SR) have not yet been able to pin point the problem and provide a fix.

2012 R2 RDS - Your roaming profile was not completely synchronized - Event ID 1509 1504 - After installing Update 1

In my deployment I have 2 brokers, and 3 session hosts. I finally installed Update 1 and all following updates available (the ones that were available about two weeks before). Also updated Forefront to v4.3 (SCCM managed).
I have roaming TS profiles enabled with folder redirection and also policy set to "delete local copy of roaming profiles" after logout. Profile folders are on a network share (Server 2003). Things were working ok until Update 1 and rest of updates
got installed.
I started getting events 1509 and 1504 when users logoff and the screen displays "Your roaming profile was not completely synchronized" message briefly. The only file affected so far is ntuser.pol.
There are two variations of the event, one claiming it cannot write the local server copy to fileshare, and the opposite, from file share to c:\users\username.
====
Windows cannot copy file \\server\profileshare\username.V2\ntuser.pol to location C:\Users\username\ntuser.pol. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - Access is denied.
=====
Windows cannot copy file C:\Users\username\ntuser.pol to location \\server\profileshare\username.V2\ntuser.pol. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - Cannot create a file when that file already exists.
==========
Permissions have not changed. The only thing changing is the Updates installed on the servers. I tried running with AV realtime protection off, no change. Ntuser.pol is already on the exclude list in Forefront.
This is happening on my test server and 2 prd servers. Any ideas. I looked for related hotfixes but not coming up with anything.
The whole reason for installing Update 1 was so that we can continue to receive security updates...

Hi,
Thanks for your comment.
When a roaming profile user logs off, the NTuser.dat file is always updated on the roaming profile share. The corresponding NTuser.pol file is only updated if the timestamp of the local copy that was created at logon is newer than the copy found in the roaming
profile share. A synchronization problem may occur if a user with a roaming profile logs on to multiple client computers at the same time. This can eventually cause policy settings to be applied incorrectly.
For example, if the Group Policy loopback feature is applied on one of the client computers, the NTuser.dat file on the roaming profile share may contain loopback policy settings that are not present in the NTuser.pol file. If this problem occurs, the loopback
policy settings that are targeted at one client computer may be unexpectedly applied to a user who logs on to a different client computer.
So please check the permission or group policy which you have applied and also whether you are performing multiple connection at a time.
