Error after importing the users profiles in SSP>Profmain.aspx page "The user profile database connection cannot be made because of error”

Technorati Tags: "The user profile database connection cannot be made because of error" profile import,MOSS,user profile

 

Why this happens :

 

- Profmain.aspx calls importStatus.LastCrawlSeedStatus to determine if an error occurred during the last profile import.

- If the LastCrawlSeedStatus value is not 0, it checks importStatus.LastLogEntry and provides the text message from the log

- LastCrawlSeedStatus is a property of the content source People_Import (Hidden Content Source)

- If the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Applications\6d372e7b-6777-4641-aebe-caab7e737701\Gather\ProfileImport\ContentSources\1\StartPages\0

- If the value to anything other than 0, we can reproduce problem

- The search account should have full control on this registry key

- The SSP account should have read access to this key.

How to Fix it :-

- Open the registry on the indexer server

- Checke the value of "lastCrawlSeedStatus" in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Applications\6d372e7b-6777-4641-aebe-caab7e737701\Gather\ProfileImport\ContentSources\1\StartPages\0

- We changed the value to 0

- Restart search service

    I tried this fix, and my users and profiles page is stll showing the "The user profile database connection cannot be made, because of error " message. There are no crawl errors, and no real info that i can think of to follow up on.
