Yesterday,
one of our user has logged a ticket by mentioning that he is not able to update
his skills in mysite.
Error message: You do
not have access to edit this user profile
This error is very tricky but
simple to understand and troubleshoot where exactly the problem is as per the Microsoft
guidelines.
This error can occur if Managed
Metadata service application is connected to the Web application that hosts My
Sites and the Managed Metadata Service Application connection has only Read
Access to Term Store permission.
What is the role of managed
metadata service application?
A Managed Metadata service
application enables Web applications to store and access keywords from a
managed metadata term database. For My Sites, this functionality is required
for users to specify keywords in the Ask Me About section or use keywords for
social tagging. A Managed Metadata service application is highly recommended
for My Sites.
To resolve this error, please do the following:
1-Central Administration-Click Application Management
2-In the Service Applications
section, click Manage service applications.
3-On the Manage Service
Applications page, click the User Profile service application that is
associated with the Web application that hosts My Sites, and then, in the
Operations section of the ribbon, click Permissions.
4-In the Connection Permissions
for Managed Metadata Service, click either Read and Restricted Write Access to
Term Store or Full Access to Term Store.
After following the above
steps, the issue has been resolved and user can update the profile without any
problems.
If you have any
queries/questions regarding the above mentioned information then please let me
know. I would be more than happy to help you as well as resolves your issues. Thank
you
Amol,
ReplyDeleteI tried to follow your steps but when I click on MySites (User Profile Service Application) it leads me to the "Manage Profile Service". Under the Manage User permissions we have set it to all authenticated users and they have permission to use personal features, create personal sites, and use social features. They are unable to edit the profile until I give them access directly to the Term Store. This seems excessive. Thanks!
Superb, what a webpage it is! This web site provides valuable data to us, keep it up.
