    Problem with "My site"

    Hi all i have encountered one of Microsofts exiting error messages "Unexpted error", this happens when i press "My site" on my testing MOSS 2007 installation, i have been looking for any error logs but cant find any pointer to what is the problem..

     This only happens for 2 of the users i have created i made different sites for each users - "to learn the fine art of MOSS", and first of i think it was an update for Win XP which did it, but it happens on different PCs.

    There are a few prerequisites to getting my sites working.

    You will need to create an SSP to manage user profiles and my sites. This is done from Central Administration > Application > Manage this Farm's Shared Services. If you do not have an SSP defined, you'll need to create one. In the settings page, you either have to provision either a new web application (preferred) or specify a path to host the my site collections. You will also need to create a web application (preferred) or allow sharepoint to define an SSP host location in an existing web application. After the SSP is defined, you'll need to open it and make sure the My Site location is defined under User Profiles > My Site Settings. Once this is done, you should be able to provision My Sites.

    If you have an SSP defined, you may want to check the settings under User Profiles > My Site Settings to insure they are configured properly.

    Hope this helps!

    The funny part it has been working for 3-4 months, then one day i tried to access my site it gave me that error, other user account are not affected, the bad part is that the user which is making the problems is the user i use most and i have a lot of data on my site for that user  Crying

     

    But i will take a look at SSPs and see if there is a problem there...

     

    I love microsoft, hands in the air every thing is working fine, next day BOOOOOOMMMMM nothing working it keeps your small gray working Big Smile

     

    And thanx for the reply

    Are you using a stand-along install? If you are, I wonder if you've bumped up against a storage issue with SQLExpress.
