User profiles in version CSS 7.50

I need to set up a profile that will allow our monitoring group to place rules and services on an Active or Suspend status.
All that I have read, points to a dir-access with customized priviliges based on mask or super-user.
What will be the "code" under the dir-access profile?
I have tried pretty much all combinations with no luck.The profile is either "privileged or not"
Any ideas..?
thanks

The CSS contains a default-profile that resides in the scripts directory on the Internal Disk Module (IDM). This file contains settings that are user-specific; that is, they apply uniquely to each user when the user logs in. For more information on User profiles and how to configure user profiles have a look at the following URL.

  • User Profiles are the wrong style after importing/migrating site collections from other SharePoint versions

    I manage a couple of different version of SharePoint, which we are in the process of migrating to SharePoint 2013. I have a problem which I am not sure how to resolve. We are using MetaLogix to migrate site and site collection data from an older SharePoint
    2007/WSS3.0 server environment into our new SharePoint 2013 environment and we are having a problem with user profiles that get created.
    I have SharePoint 2013 set up for "SharePoint Profile Synchronization" and some of our user's profiles are being created in an older format that shows the user's claims account information, rather than the more fancy profile type that allows us
    to include pictures and click on "follow this person" links. 
    If we manually delete the profile, it will be recreated properly however, as we are migrating many sites and collections over, it is near impossible to do this and keep track of each user so that their profiles can be deleted and recreated.
    Is there some way to change this behavior so that SharePoint will only create the newer style of user profile?

    These 'profiles' are you looking at them in the User Profile Service Application itself or are you looking at site collections? There is a huge difference between the two but people often miss it.
    In most cases you'll have some partial information on the Site Collections but when you click through to their actual profile (not just their User Information List entry) you'll see the prettier version. That information is normally internally synchronised
    by a timer job but that may not have run yet and/or the fact that your users haven't actually used the site may be causing it not to update them (it's an efficiency matter).
    Finally: Drop your sales guy at Metalogix an email, they will bounce it to one of their techies and they'll have seen it a million times.

  • Original user profile destroyed after upgrade to version 3.6.13

    After upgrade to 3.6.13 en-US from ?? (maybe ?3.4.???, but I do not remember well; I really did not expect problems) all the history and bookmarks were lost.
    I searched for them in Profiles directory, but there was only a new profile with "new template" data.
    I installed the new version like an "admin" user (to have it available for all users "for sure").
    The installation seemed to detect previous version of Firefox as it detected its istallation directory (and it had not offered the possibility to change the installation directory) and it detected that many extensions are do not have compatible versions.
    Before the installation I had beed experiencing crashes when running Firefox like me (user "marek"; power-user) before. It was possible to workaround it by running Firefox as "admin" user (ugly and unsafe, I know) which I was doing for more than a year. Firefox worked than quite good, it installed its updates, etc.
    Of course, I checked the admin user profile, it was overwritten by a "new" one.
    Moreover, I had been cleaning the Temporary Internet Files and History of IE (IE7; done from IE); but I did not expect it could be related.

    It looks like you have the latest version of Firefox. <br />
    Maybe that message referring to Plugins? <br />
    You do have at least 3 Plugins that are old, Java is very old.
    See this page for more information. <br />

  • Maintaining user profiles when upgrading from v24 to newest version 36.X - Enterprise

    Hi,
    Im going to upgrade the Mozilla Firefox for about 500 users ish. The current version is 24.0 and we are upgrading to the newest version 36.0 something.
    But the question is, how do I maintain all of the user settings when doing this upgrade? It is not an option to upgrade using the application itself. We have a centralized Config Mgr 2012 R2 solution. And I need to keep all of the user profiles with bookmarks, saved passwords, etc etc as it is today. The current version they are using have a few restrictions made with predefined and locked prefs in forms of automatic update, homepage, disabling the send data to Mozilla and so on, basically all of the standard enterprise configuration when you want to controll how the browser is for the users.
    I've read a few articles on where to find spesific files, and what they are containting of information for the profile. But when doing a uninstall of the current version mozilla also removes whatever is stored in %appdata%\mozilla firefox\...profiles..
    Is it even possible to "transfer" profiles for Version 24 to the newest version 36.something? Also, this needs automation, its not an option to manually restore each profile from "backup" for about 500 users. All profiles are unique.
    Client computers are running Win 7 - 64bit OS.
    Best Regards

    To answer your question, when you update from 24 to 37 (the actual latest version) your profiles will migrate automatically, there should be no action needed on your part. We try to minimize profile breaking changes, so between versions 24 and 37 there is no need to do any special migration (that is only really a need when going from Firefox 3.6 or older to the latest version).
    HOWEVER, since you are an enterprise and it looks like you only do upgrades every so often, I'd suggest you look into Firefox for Enterprises. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/
    This version only updates major versions once a year (so from Firefox 10 to 17, from 17 to 24, from 24 to 31, from 31 to 38) but it comes out with regular security updates every 6 weeks. This way you don't have to continually re-certify Firefox major versions every 6 weeks, and can simply let automatic updates push out security updates to your users every 6 weeks (With your current model your users are vulnerable to all security holes found until you push the next major update). Then, next year, you have a 12 week overlap between versions to test and make sure nothing breaks before you push to the next major version.
    There is also a mailing list for you to get help and advice with specific Enterprise issues.
    If you decide to go this route (which I would strongly advise) then I'd suggest you wait for a couple of weeks until Firefox 38 comes out, the next ESR version. Then you can certify and not have to worry about deployments until 45 next year!

  • Firefox V33.0 can't find user profile and cant view window content

    Hello
    I have used Firefox since the old days, wayyy back. Never an issue, always worked, always performed.
    My Firefox (v32 I believe), automatically downloaded and applied the v33 browser and immediately, everything went wrong...
    First, the browser loaded but the screen was either sheet black or sheet white, then reloading (after closing the window) was informed (only via the window title as all else was block black) that Firefox couldn't see a user profile.
    I loaded FF with safe mode and disabled everything (list of addons at the bottom of this post), and the browser loads now and I can see content, but then after only a minute in "safe mode" firefox persistently returned with either a fatal crash or a sudden inability to find the user profile (causing exit).
    Reading up about possible workarounds, I eventually managed to export the Profile data (to desktop), to clear the profile data and replace data with desktop copy. Clearing the data took several attempts due to firefox display only showing black or white as stated above, but firefox then couldn't "import" profile as I can't see whats going on in the window.
    Eventually manually installed profile data (from desktop automatic copy) to firefox but FF still persisted in crashing to desktop and not displaying correctly if not in Safe mode. I eventually uninstalled firefox and reinstalled from scratch. The reinstall persisted with all the above mentioned issues, I did manually reinstate the FF user profile and crashing to desktop is now rare but does still happen, now it usually happens when Firefox is not the current active window.
    Firefox still does not display correctly unless in the "Safe Mode".
    Any clues or help or suggestion about why this would happen? Any way I can revert to version 32?
    My Addons :
    No Services.
    Appearance, default only
    PLUGINS:
    VLC plugin 2.1.3.0
    Silverlight plugin 5.1.3
    shockwave flash 15.0.0
    Quicktime plugin 7.7.5
    Java platform SE7 U67 10.
    Google Update (disabled)
    Adobe Acrobat 11.0.9
    EXTENSIONS:
    British Dictionary (not compatible with v33!!, disabled)
    Colorzilla 2.8.1
    cssUpdater 0.5.2 (disabled)
    Dust-Me Selector [for CSS] 4.1
    Firebug 2.0.3 (and associated FireDiff, FirePHP, EventBug)
    enabling / disabling all/any of these does not (so far) change the graphical fault loading Firefox outside of Safe Mode.
    Any ideas?
    cheers
    P.S>As additional info: I have tried the "reset firefox" but this caused numerous little bugs with saving the profile user data. Also reseting did not fix any of the issues.
    Everything else on my computer works fine. No virus, no malware (Eset / MWBytes) all other programs fine, and FF was fine until V33!!

  • I am having a serious issue with all my apps disappearing/not working- user profiles

    i will list the things i have done in the past 24 hours, hopefully one of you knows what happened...thank you in advance
    first off, my situation- was that i bought a macbook pro(about a year ago) with lion or snow leopord it is software 10.7.5 i dont know what the guy did but when he sent me the computer the username was off and so was the home folder, i changed the username with ease but the home folder stayed tbd and i couldnt figure out how to change it. well it finally got on my nerves enough from looking at it that i wanted to change it today that put me into the situation i am in. Here is what i have changed:
    -I added a second profile as to see if i could change the home emblem file named tbd to what i wanted.  This worked or so i thought. 
    - then shared and permissions showed tbd(me) so i wanted to change that also so i went into systempreferences>users and groups>login options>network account server and clicked join/open directory utility.  this is where i believe i went wrong i read in a forum that this is what you needed to change to make it look how i wanted it to.   under active directory it still had this guys name gtmb04_evan so i changed it to my name like the forum said, well his name is back up even though i changed it. and this is when everything stopped working.
    symptoms:  all my applications act like they are newly downloaded and make me set them up. 
    - my home screen is nothing like it was before, no apps are on the desktop and the bar along the bottom only has the basic ones
    - i tried to take the second username off of administrater which made me restart my cp(all my stuff looked normal until this, but didnt work) 
    -my launchpad wasnt showing any apps they simply looked blank
    - my firefox along with many other apps wouldnt even start prior to reseting and gave me a message with something like couldnt find or access user profile( i forget the entire message)
    please please help me, i hate this right now and have no idea what to do, all my files are still under my name, that when i thought i changed tbd- it apparently just made a new folder under users which didnt show up until the restart, i do not have a time machine set up on this computer because i hated the lion setup and couldn't get it to operate correctly

    i do not have a backup of it, so i am thinking about replacing my old hard drive from the water damaged into this one, not even sure if that would work, but it did not seem to be damaged, as i recovered all the files i wanted off of it to put onto this mbp
    the previous owner didnt have it set to boot, they had all their settings left on it and tried to edit all the names on it, had a bunch of server info and printers etc crap on it.  i do not believe he edited the terminal system though--he doesnt seem to terribly bright(if thats possible)
    tbh i hate lion compared to the old one i had, this one has so many more issues-overheating,fan noise, cd dvd noise
    if you need screenshots or data of anything else as away
    [problem is i do not want to start from scratch if there is a chance of fixing it, this one did not come with disks or anything like my first. so i dont even know if i could, and how it sets now i am basically starting from scratch, because now all my apps are reset but working, i am hoping to get my data back somehow though, i lost all of my bookmarks and editing all my apps and setting again would be a pain

  • Huge ntuser.dat.LOG1 since upgrade to Windows 8.1 prohibits roaming of user profile

    Hello,
    a few days ago my PC (part of our domain) first started to have problems with my user profile. Our domain uses roaming profiles with a size limit of 30MB. My user.dat has a size of 12.5MB. Up to now this did not cause any problems (and does not cause any for
    most users of our domain having a user.dat of similar size). However, after upgrading to Windows 8.1 I repeadly have problems with my profile exceeding its maximum size. After checking my profile, I found a ntuser.dat.LOG1 with 12,5MB in size and a ntuser.dat.LOG2
    of 2MB. As far as I know these files are used to store temporary transactions for the user.dat. But why are they this large? Together they almost completely fill the profile. As an interesting side node the last modification of ntuser.dat.LOG1 dates back more
    then seven days.
    What is further puzzling me: ntuser.dat.LOG1 and ntuser.dat.LOG2 are not synchronized with the roaming profile on the server. At least they are not on the server. However there used to be much smaller versions of these files which could have been transfered
    before the profile size exceeded its limit. Since these file seem not to be part of the roaming part of the profile, they should not count for the roaming profile size. However, they definitely do. Neglecting the registry files the largest file in my profile
    is less than 500kb and there are very few files of this size. I checked locally as well as on our server.
    Deleting the local profile and starting fresh using the roaming profile from our server does work for a day or two but then I run into the same problem. Especially, loosing all local profile data is inconvenient. I could start a new with a completely new
    profile, but I am not convinced that it is a profile issue. In our organisation my computer is one of the first to move to Windows 8.1. Since my profile worked without problems for years now, I am worried that I ran into a Windows 8.1 issue. As users normally
    start to complain about a roaming profile not synchronizing only after their local copy broke, I'd like to make sure that this is a isolated issue.
    Anyone else experiencing similar issues? Any hint on how to solve the problem?
    Regards,
    Oliver

    No, I did not find a solution. However, we moved away from roaming profiles and rely on folder redirection only. That works for us. Since we can redirect the most important folders there is no more need for roaming profiles (at least in our case).

  • How To Properly Delete a User Profile on Windows 7 in a Domain environment

    I have not been able to find an answer that matches the issue I'm facing. I had recently setup a laptop for a user and soon after, he was experiencing issues that I thought might be profile related. So, I did what always worked for me on prior versions of
    Windows without any fuss or side affects.
    Logged in under the local Administrator account, I went into: System Properties>User Profiles>Settings and removed the user profile from their. When I do that, I get an error message:
    Profile Error
    Profile not deleted completely. Error - A required privilege is not held by the client
    Ok, no problem I think. I just need to delete the user's profile directory under the users folder right? So I do this and figure when I try to log in again as the user that a new profile will be created. However, this is not what happens exactly. I login
    with the user credentials and it logs in successfully. However, I get a pop saying:
    You have been logged on with a temporary profile
    You cannot access your files and files created in this profile will be deleted when you log off. To fix this, log off and try logging on later.
    Please see the event log for details or contact your system administrator
    So my question is; why did the profile not delete completely after both deleting the user profile under System Properties and after deleting the actual profile directory? What did I miss and what is the proper method of deleting a user profile completely
    without running into these other issues?

    Hi Womprat,
    According to your description, I understand that you want to delete user profile but display an error in Windows 7.
    Please use other user (with administrator privileges) login this computer, then open Properties for Computer--->Advanced system setting--->Settings for User Profiles, then select the profile you want to delete.

  • Unable to start User Profile Sync Service

    Hi,
    I am currently facing some issues with starting the User Profile Sync Service on my SP2013 farm.. I was wondering if someone could help me out a bit.
    I have successfully installed the SP2013 farm on a environment that has access to our AD etc. and I have also
    restored the database from SP2007 and converted it to Claims authentication etc. The one thing I can’t get to work is to enable the User Profile Sync Service on the server. I have checked quite a bit of TechNet blogs and other sites and tried almost everything
    suggested but it still fails. I’ve also recreated the farm from scratch yesterday again but no luck still
    L.
    The below is what I have done:
    Farm Admin account – spadmin2013 is local admin on all SP Farm servers (2 WFE and 2 APP Servers) and has log on locally rights as well on security policy. On the SQL DB it has dbo permissions on the Sync, Profile and Social DB’s.
    Farm Service account – spservice-s is a managed farm account that is used to run the various services of the farm (used during the config wizard part).
    From within the Admin Control Panel I have verified the managed accounts and it is indeed spadmin2013 which owns the User Profile Sync Service (not the application itself). When I try to start the service it tries to do that for 5-10 minutes and then fails
    and goes back to stop and I do not see any error. I have created a custom service application with new database that runs on spadmin2013/spfarm/ldap accounts etc. I can see from the Windows services – FIM and FIMSync service try to start using the spadmin2013
    and then go back to disabled. I have also tried giving the spadmin2013 rights to replicate the AD as few blogs suggested that. I am not sure where this is going wrong or what is missing. I had successfully got this to work and still can get it to work on my
    first SP2013 server which is a standalone – running SQL, SP app and WFE on the same box.
    In fact I also tried to activate this service first before I joined my 3 other servers to the farm and had no luck. I am kinda lost here as to what is going on! 

    Right. i ran a new log as suggested. I have also cleared the config cache and created a Powershell profile as suggested in this link - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bryanbolling/archive/2014/01/02/unable-to-start-user-profile-synchronization-service.aspx
    I checked the ULS Logs and i can see the below error -

  • User profile synchronization service wont start after SharePoint Service pack SP2

    Hi
    -Using SharePoint 2010 with 1 appserver and 2 frontend webservers on Service Pack2. (ms server 2008r2, SQLServer2008r2).
    -Farmaccount has been set to local admin on all sp servers.
    -Firstly, the User Profile Service Application runs fine and is started. Dont mix it with the User profile synchronization Service.
    Prior to installing SP2 User profile service application and user profile synchronization service were running fine.
    The first thing I did after the installation of SP2 was running the:
    -psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -wait
    As SharePoint setup user (spadmin).
    This ran fine on the 2 front end web servers.
    However i got one fault on the Appserver:
    I have also tried:
    PSConfig.exe -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b -force -cmd applicationcontent -install -cmd installfeatures
    which led to same resulting error.
    So I tried to start the Use profile synchronization service as suggested manually by logging on with the Farmaccount, starting the user profile synchronization service through Central Administration. This led to Stuck on Starting status. 
    The windows services Forefront had status starting, then stopped.
    One question:
    Prior to starting the User profile synchronization service through Central Administration. What account and startup status should the 2 Forefront Windows Services have? (Automatic and local system?) or (Automatic and Farmaccount?) or (Disabled and Local
    system?) or (Disabled and farmaccount?). Because i know that SharePoint UPA will provision these services though Central Administration. However what is the default state prior to starting the Synchronization service?
    So i continue...
    Since it was stuck on starting i stopped it with:
    stop-SPServiceInstance -identity <upaSyncguid>
    which gave me:
    Stop-SPServiceInstance : An object of the type Microsoft.SharePoint.Administrat
    ion.SPServiceInstanceJobDefinition named "job-service-instance-36bdf2ef-58f2-45
    e5-8f78-ab75f646611a" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Admi
    nistration.SPTimerService named "SPTimerV4". Rename your object or delete the
    and i could fix with:
    #Stop the stopping:
    stsadm -o provisionservice -action stop -servicetype "Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ProfileSynchronizationService, Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles,
    Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" -servicename FIMSynchronizationService
    I also removed the forefront certificate from personal - certificate store, as this is provisioned when user profile synchronization service is provisioned.
    That set the Central Administration Status on the User profile synchronization Service to disabled. Fine.
    Everytime i tried to start the user profile synchronization service (logged on as farmaccount), left it for 10-15 min and did iisreset and restart sharepoint timer service, and also tried rebooting the appserver. No change.
    A thought, is it important to restart timer service and do iisreset on the two frontend servers after trying to start the user profile synchronization service on the appserver?
    I'm getting to the point were i just want to delete the whole service application and set it up anew...
    any tips will be greatly appreaciated.

    You're very welcome, hope it helped, if not the I suggest you clear the configuration cache as follows.
    The config cache is where config settings are stored locally on the Microsoft SharePoint server, so a SQL call isn’t required.
    To clear the cache:
    Stop the SP Timer service. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click
    Services.
    Right-click SharePoint 2010 Timer, and then click Stop.
    Close the Services console.
    On the computer that is running Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and on which the Central Administration site is hosted, click
    Start, click Run, type explorer, and then press ENTER.
    In Windows Explorer, locate and then double-click the following folder:
    %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config\GUID
    Notes
    The %SystemDrive% system variable specifies the letter of the drive on which Windows is installed. By default, Windows is installed on drive C.
    The GUID placeholder specifies the GUID folder. There may be more than one of these.
    The ProgramData folder may be hidden. To view the hidden folder, follow these steps:
    On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    Click the View tab.
    In the Advanced settings list, click Show hidden files and folders under
    Hidden files and folders, and then click OK.
    You can also simply type this directly in the path if you do not want to show hidden files and folders.
    Back up the Cache.ini file. (Make a copy of it. DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE, Only the XML files in the next step)
    Delete all the XML configuration files in the GUID folder (DO NOTE DELETE THE FOLDER). Do this so that you can verify that the GUID folders content is replaced by new XML configuration files when the cache is rebuilt.
    Note When you empty the configuration cache in the GUID folder, make sure that you
    do NOT delete the GUID folder and the Cache.ini file that is located in the GUID folder.
    Double-click the Cache.ini file.
    On the Edit menu, click Select All.
    On the Edit menu, click Delete.
    Type 1, and then click Save on the
    File menu. (Basically when you are done, the only text in the config.ini file should be the number 1)
    On the File menu, click Exit.
    Start the Timer service. To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click
    Services.
    Right-click SharePoint 2010 Timer, and then click Start.
    Close the Services console.
    Note The file system cache is re-created after you perform this procedure. Make sure that you perform this procedure on all servers in the server farm.
    Make sure that the Cache.ini file in the GUID folder now contains its previous value. For example, make sure that the value of the Cache.ini file is not 1.
    Check in the GUID folder to make sure that the xml files are repopulating. This may take a bit of time.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS + User profile Disks + App-V = Explorer.exe crashing all of the time

    I have built a new RDS farm on Windows Server 2012 R2 with two Session Hosts and a combined Connect Broker/Web Access server. I had the farm up and running with User Profile Disks and all seemed OK. However, as soon as I installed the App-V 5.0 SP2 RDS
    client on the session hosts, the explorer.exe process started crashing for any user logging in via the Web Access site. The process crashes and restarts every five to ten seconds. It's the same for administrators. If they log in via Web Access explorer.exe
    crashes, but if they RDP directly to one of the session hosts explorer.exe is fine. If I reboot the session hosts, then the first user to log in via Web Access has a stable desktop session (and appears to have a new profile as well). However, if that user
    logs out and back in again, explorer.exe starts crashing again. The only applications I have packaged at the moment are Office 2013 and Firefox.
    I tried disabling User Profile Disks, but this caused a whole bunch of other problems and I eventually lost the ability to log in at all via Web Access (errors about the user profile service). As this is a small pre-production environment I completed scrapped
    all of the servers and rebuilt from scratch. Again, everything appeared fine until I installed the App-V client, then explorer.exe started crashing repeatedly for all users.
    Has anyone come across this issue before? I have tried installing the App-V 5.0 SP2 Hotfix Package 2, but this didn't help. I have read in a few forums that App-V doesn't work very well with User Profile Desks, but I have not heard of this particular issue.
    Similarly, SP2 seems to have a lot of problems, so I am going to try removing App-V RDp Client SP2 and installing SP1. I ahev also deleted User Profile Disks for the test users to recreate their profiles, but this didn't help either.
    Any other suggestions welcome!

    I forgot to include the application event log entry for explorer.exe crashing:

  • 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.

  • Server 2012 R2 Corrupt User Profile Disks after RDSH reboot

    Hi,
    We have a serious problem when using User Profile Disks, we have a pretty simple setup with a single RDGW & RDCB and the 2x RDSH with a folder share for redirected folders and another for User Profile Disks. Now if any server suffers a re-boot when users
    are connected to it then their profiles gets corrupted and are issued with a temporary profile (we have a GPO to deny use of temp profiles) and so cannot log on.
    I have searched the forums and found the following hotfix
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2896328 but this ONLY applies to Windows Server 2012.
    Is there any published hotfix for Server 2012 R2, else we will need to look at another way of managing profiles ?
    Thanks,
    Donal

    Hi Donal,
    Sorry to say but there is no other Hotfix related to this issue for Server 2012 R2. But you can try the option of deleting the SID from registry. You can find the below path and then search for proper associated SID with user name and then delete it.
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\ProfileList
    More information.

    Hope it helps!

  • FIM EVENT ID 3 when starting User Profile Synchronization service

    I am having issues getting the USP Sync Service to start correctly in our 2013 Farm.  
    We are using a named instance for this install and from what I have read, it looks like that is the issue.
    In the ULS I find this error "ERROR  ILMPostSetupConfiguration: ILM Configuration: Validating installation of SQL Service FAILED ."
    The event log shows this error: 
    .Net SqlClient Data Provider: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: HostId is not registered
       at Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Utilities.ExceptionManager.ThrowException(Exception exception)
       at Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Data.Exception.DataAccessExceptionManager.ThrowException(SqlException innerException)

       at Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Workflow.Hosting.HostActivator.RetrieveWorkflowDataForHostActivator()
       at Microsoft.ResourceManagement.Workflow.Hosting.HostActivator.ActivateHosts(Object source, ElapsedEventArgs e)
    The server was set up with a sql alias and we also added an alias for the server itself.   Based on the below links, I did verify that the SQLInstance is empty in the registry.  
    I am at a loss on what to try next to get this working.  As a side note, I just noticed the dev farm we have (which I didn't set up) does not have the UPS configured.  I have seen references that state the only FIM  2010 SP1 works with SharePoint
    2013 and am currently investigating updating the version on our server to SP1.
    all help is appreciated!  
    Thanks,
    Natalie

  • Not able to import User Profile Property via BDC Connection

    I want to fill some of the user profile properties via BDC Connection. I already have created more than 50 user profiles which I imported from AD. Now, in order to import profiles properties using BDC, I performed below steps:
    a) Ensured Business Data Connectivity and Secure Store are running and used account has Full permission on these services.
    b) Created an external content type using SharePoint Designer and created an external list to ensure that data is available:
    Set email field as identifier, which is one of the columns in SQL table and is a primary key.
    Created Read Item and Read List operations on above ECT.
    c) Checked the presence of above ECT in BDC service and ensured it has all necessary permissions i.e. Edit, Execute etc.
    d) Configure a new synchronization connection in User profile Service by selecting the same ECT. Here I chose to connect 1:1 mapping and picked up WorkEmail property to return items.
    e) Mapped one of the custom property with one of the fields of SQL Server. Here, I ensured they both have same type.
    f) Ran Full Synchronize after above steps. On checked, I do not find any data in the mapped properties.
    Below are the traces of LOGS:

    Thanks for the very clear answer back. You're a star. Much appreciated and better to know where you stand directly. Have called the helpdesk and are willing to solve and take this one back in, although it will hurt. The macBook Pro continues to be out of reach economically, so it would need to be the white macBook...
    Just wanted to check some last items before making final decisions as I am checking an alternative workaround
    - my camcorder supports recording on memory stick which can then be read into iMovie without problem. Any idea if memory stick is lower in resolution as normal DV tape recording? If this is comparable I can choose to from now on switch to memory stick. When I record on the stick it is then recognised as MOV.
    - is there any other (non apple made) OSX software on the market to facilitate only the USB driven capturing? Hence did any other SW supplier plug this hole? The old windows pc has proven that the camera streams images via the USB port (hence don't at all understand why iMovie cannot just support capturing via USB streaming...!!!!) and I understand it is more that iMovie doesn't support capturing images via USB, but does anybody else at least for the capturing bit?
    - You read about Firewire - USB adapters/hubs/convertors. It is however never clear if it would solve this issue. Dead-end street or an option?
    - I can capture my archive of old tapes on my old PC and then put them into my Mac. However the capturing SW makes one large file of it and no event is split. Any idea if on import iMovie could automatically split this into different events (based on date or start/stop?)
    - final question: does iMovie when capturing video from tapebased camcorder automatically split events based on date or start/stop? Would be silly to make switch and then still find out I need to manually make the cuts.
    Very grateful for your support. Just a couple of days left to make final decision...
