User Profile Service hangs for unknown reason

Hi,
We have a system where usually around 300+ users are logged in simultaneously. These users are working on +-20 Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Servers. These servers are in a cluster. We have a physical load balancer. We have a Windows Server 2008 R2 Connection
Broker. We also have serveral Windows Server 2003 servers, connecting to the same domain controllers, but to a different Farm on the Connection Broker.
Sometimes, and for us it seems like random times, users start complaining they cannot log on to the servers anymore. The server seems to be hanging on the User Profile Service. Users get the message "Please wait for the User Profile Service". This message
will stay untill you give the server a hard reset (power off - power on). If we connect to the service from another computer in the domain, we can see which services are started. We can't see any problems, everything seems to be working fine. We just can't
log on to the server anymore, also not as console. This happens on all our 2008 servers in the farm. If it happens, it is usually to happen on more than 1 server (last week on 7 servers simultaneously). You can imagine how our customers react to this. Users
who are allready logged in to the servers on which the problems occur do not notice anything, untill they try to log out. Then they also get the message. If we shutdown this machine (some work on VMware, some are physical servers) the hard way (power off /
power on) the server can work good for several weeks. Then, out of the blue, the problem might occur again.
We have tried many hotfixes and Windows Updates, we have searched in the DNS system, and disabled the second NIC, but the problem still occurs. We do have mandatory profiles, which are being loaded by the software "Flex Profiles".
I hope somebody here has some good ideas.
Thanks in advantage,
Roy

Hi Chris,
First of all, thanks for your reaction. The problem in your link describes almost the same environment as we have. Except that in our case, whenever the "Please wait for the user profile" turns up, nobody is able to log on to that server anymore until reboot.
In their case, they will be logged on after 60 - 90 seconds. We can't really find an event in the event viewer which seems to be hanging around with the problem.

Workflow Manager & User Profile Service Application for Extranet Web application

Hi,
Recently i have setup HA WF Manager farm and associated it with Intranet web application (on-prem). Now i want to use the same farm for our extranet environment (on-prem) but extranet environment is not associated with UPA. Since user profile application
is not available for extranet environment so workflow does not work.
Now if I try to use existing UPA or create a new UPA for extranet environment, then i am exposing users data to all partner and collaborators. But for workflows to work it is necessary that users profile should be there in profile database.
Is there any way that I can run workflows in extranet environment without exposing user profile data to partners/collaborators? Thanks.
-Prashant

Thanks for the reply Paul, but this does not solve the problem.
Actually in MySite web application external users group is not at all added with any permissions but just to check your suggestion i have given permission to externals group with Deny Read permission. Now UPA is associated to the extranet web application
and when i access user profile data using RESP API using a partner account I can still see the data. For e.g. I am using this URL
https://extranet.abc.com/_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetPropertiesFor(accountName=@v)?@v='abc\uname'
When I hit this URL in browser using partner account, it shows the profile data of the account passed in the URL.
MySite web application is https://mysite.abc.com and on this web application external users group is added under policy with Deny Read permissions. Thanks.

User Profile Service - Permission for Service User to Read All (also "only me fields")

Hey there,
we have a webapplication that needs to read all info from a user profile. Even if it is set to "only me".
I want to set the least privileges needed. So set the user to "Manage Profiles" in the CA seems to be wrong.
How can i achieve that?
Best regards
Stephan

You could run that piece of code in the vacation app using "runwithelevatedprivileges". That may also resolve it, as it will be running under the context of the App Pool account (which you could grant the appropriate rights on the UPSA).

User Profile Service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded - For any new accounts created

I'm sharing this issue we encountered earlier today so that others might benefit from what we discovered.
We're using Win8.1 Ent and on two of the systems, any accounts created encounter the following message upon attempted login (i.e. login fails):
"User Profile Service failed the sign-in. User profile cannot be loaded"
The event viewer shows this:
Windows cannot copy file
\\?\C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VSCommon\12.0\SQM\sqmdata-7696-039-00000.sqm to location
\\?\C:\Users\TEMP\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VSCommon\12.0\SQM\sqmdata-7696-039-00000.sqm. This error may be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.
DETAIL - Access is denied.
Solution which worked for us
In our instance either setting the appropriate permissions on the affected file, or deleting the file resolved it.

I had a similar problem, and raised a Premier case, which is mentioned here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/asiatech/archive/2014/01/30/new-user-gets-event-1509-after-deploying-ie9-10-11-packaged-by-ieak.aspx
It seems this issue with SQM/CEIP creating a poorly ACE'd SQM file has been around for a very long time, with many causes being the installation of Internet Explorer (as was my case, of deploy IE10 to Win7), but other reasons also occur (as in your case
with VS).
It seems to me that this is a defect in the SQM/CEIP component, but the issue does not consistently occur is all scenarios, which appears to be an excuse to leave the defect uncorrected, so we have to implement ugly workarounds.. :(

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,
Novak

"Please Wait For The User Profile Service" message when logging on to TS 2008

I have a Windows 2008 AD Domain with 2 Windows 2008 Terminal Servers. Both are configured identically. I have the TS Roaming profiles stored on a 3rd server and a GPO pointing all users to the roaming profiles. On one of the servers everything works perfectly. On the second server the users, after they input their credentials, get the following message "Please Wait For The User Profile Service". The message can stay there for up to 3 minutes, then they are logged innormall with the correct profile. This problem does not occur on log off. Any help would be appreciated

99% of the times I had this problem it was caused by either DNS issues or network bindings.
Are your servers multihomed? In other words: do you have multiple network cards? If so, make sure your "production" card is on top in the network connections -> advanced settings -> adapters and bindings.
You could also enable user env logging (search microsoft how to do that)

Some links and social network features not active in user profile service for some users in sharepoint 2013

Hi everyone,
I installed user profile service and synchronize. When I go to my site by administrator user every things is OK.
But when I login by another user the my site is look like this
Please guide me to resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Can you please check and share mysite setting details. Check for below:
Create a site collection at the root using the My Site Host template
Assuming you want users’ MySites to be created at
http://mySiteHost/personal/[John_Smith], create a Managed Path for the web app. The path should be personal, and the type should be
Wildcard Inclusion.
In User Profile Service Application, set My Site Host location to
http://mySiteHost, and
Personal Site Location to personal.
Enable Self-Service Site Creation for the web app
Check when the timerjob was mysite last executed. Try to manually run them
Check ULS Log for possible error and share error details with us

Firefox crashes for unknown reason lately, so I removed it and reinstalled it. How can I put my Favorites (bookmarks) back into the newly installed FireFox???

Firefox crashes a few times when I was on Facebook and with email, also watching dramas online. Most of the time due to Adobe Flash and I did submit crash report. Later it crashes for unknown reason while I have email and Facebook on different tabs -- when I was on the tab of email, it looks system hang and not responding. This happened to my laptop that uses Windows Vista as I noticed. I don't remember it ever happens to my desktop that uses Windows XP.
It's pretty annoying of such known crash, but before removing Firefox, I did try to update all add-ons or plugins and it looks like doesn't work out. After updating for couple times and it still crashed like that, I removed Firefox and reinstall it.
'''Now I want to know how to put the shortcuts from my Favorite folder into the newly installed FireFox's bookmarks.''' I didn't backup the bookmarks by using Firefox. I even went to Firefox help for instructions, but it only mentions how to merge/input the bookmarks from other browsers. Please note the version I've removed and inrestalled is the same -- 3.6.13.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

My Time Machine will no longer back up to my external disk for unknown reasons. It would not accept my password and said the disk is read-only and damaged. How can I copy my files to my Mac so I can repair it?

My Time Machine will no longer back up to my external drive for unknown reasons. It began after a series of power outages (my equipment is protected by a surge protector with battery backup), and was shut down correctly. Then it began by not recognizing my disk and my Time Machine password, although I am positive it was correct. I tried NUMEROUS times to get into it. It says the disk is damaged and needs to be erased and started over. How can I back up my files on my Mac so I can do that? I have no other disk to back up to. I found the files in a folder called "Backups.backupdb", and tried to copy them into a folder, but get the message "The volume has the wrong case sensitivity for a backup." The "lost+found" folder did copy for me. Will I just have to lose 4 years of backups?

Hi there,
I have the same issue. Usually hangs after 10K od sometimes after 18MB of backup file.
Config: iTunes 10.4., Win 7 64bit, iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3
I tried all of these without success:
- deleted backups via iTunes / Preferences
- deleted backups from sync folder
- created a new admin user and tried to sync
- reinstalled iTunes
- ran all Windows updates, restarted, reinstalled iTunes
- ran iTunes / Diagnostics (says everything okay, only info which is strange: diag says I am not a admin user, which is not correct)
Nothing helped. Who can help. I hope someone from Apple can take care, as I seem not to be the only one. Actually iTunes is the worst part about iPhone. Hope with iOS 5 and Cloud sync to get rid of iTunes.
Any hints welcome,
Cheers,
Miguel-KA

User profile service service failed the logon?

Every time I try to logon to my user account in windows vista home premium, it says :The User Profile Service service Has failed the logon. The User Profile Cannot Be Loaded." The Rest of the accounts on my computer still work fine. But New User Accounts say the same thing. System restore didn't even fix it when i restored back as far as possible. I've scanned for viruses with all security programs that I have, along with system diagnostics, etc. and still nothing. it still did it even after I moved all my files to another user's folder and deleted my account. I didn't change anything or add or delete anything before it stopped working. When i go to " user profiles" in "System properties" it showed my profile was a backup and unknown profile size. after I deleted my account, it didn't show my profile at all.

Windows Vista Home Premium failed logon
Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 1720, about 4 weeks old, O S Windows Visa home premium.
On switching on, my profile picture appears and requests the pass word, on entering the password the following message appears "The user profile service failed logon.User profile cannot be loaded"
I have searched forums for assistance, but some say to press F8 on boot up I only have an F2 or F12 option on my Inspiron. also I only have one profile on the laptop as some are suggesting log on via guest profile and change settings, but i am unable to do this as i have no guest profile set up. Please help!

Initiall SharePoint Server 2013 setup -- unable to manage new User Profile Service Application

During initial farm setup, creating an initial User Profile Service Application works fine. However, once it's created, I cannot 'manage' it through the Manage Service Applications page in central
admin.
I get a generic error (Sorry, something went wrong / unexpected error) with a correlation ID that doesn't seem to match any ULS log entries. (Yes, I merged logs from all machines in the farm.)
A Windows event log entry says:
A failure was reported when trying to invoke a service application: Endpoint Failure
Also frequent errors in ULS logs: (see below)
UserProfileApplicationNotAvailableException
User Profile Application      Proxy failed to retrieve partitions from User Profile Application: Micro…
SPDistributedCache DataCacheException
I did notice that the file 'ProfileService.svc does not exist in SharePoint's web services app at the URL you see in the error. (below)
I also found it interesting that the event log error shows 1 active endpoint and 3 failed endpoints. I have 2 WFEs and 2 app servers. But I'm only trying to get the user profile service app running on the application
servers. I have deleted and recreated this service app several times under various names (deleted/recreated its app pool as well) and wonder if these other failed endpoints could be orphans from previous instances...
Any thoughts on how I might successfully create this service application? I've already been Binging my head against a wall long enough that I would have been better off reinstalling the entire farm... I may still
do that.
FYI, my farm came from a slipstreamed SP1 install package, and received the July CU after several other things were already configured, including the already-failed UP service application.

Thanks for the suggestion. I performed the service restarts, and then an iisreset an the two web servers, and the application server that does not run the services. Finally, I ran iisreset on the application server that does run the services.

User Profile Service - User Profile Incremental Synchronization Timer job stuck at 33% Status: Pausing

User Profile Service - User Profile Incremental Synchronization Progress: 33% Status: Pausing
It has been almost 15 days.
Both User Profile Service and User Profile Synchronization Service are in Started state and FIM service also starting
I tried clearing sharePoint config cache.
I also restarted the sharepoint timer service.
I tried almost everything that is on Internet but nothing helped me.
Is there any other way to solve the issue as I was struck on production server (ASAP)
In synchronization serivce manager status of MOSS_DeltaImport is Inprogress from past 2 days

Hi,
Please follow the steps in the link below to clear the configuration cache.

Hi Mannnn,
Did you tried flushing timerservice? please flush timer service cache, restart IIS and then check.

How can i start a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one ?

hi
i create a new user profile service in ordre to replace an old one
when i use : Get-SPServiceApplication i can see that hi is created but
when i use Get-SPServiceInstance i can see it i can see only the old one

Hi,
The Get-SPServiceInstance returns the services instance for a specific server or the entire farm. The service instance GUID is unique to every farm and cannot be changed.
For starting a fresh with the User Profile Service configuration, you can unprovision and re-provision the User Profile Service:
