An end
user might encounter this error message when trying to close his or her profile
after updating the following information: Ask Me About, Skills etc
What is the reason behind
this error?
This error can occur when the SharePoint
administrator has not configured a Managed Metadata service application and
specified the connection as the default keyword term store for the Web
application that hosts My Sites.
What is managed metadata
service application?
A Managed Metadata service application enables Web
applications to store and access keywords from a managed metadata term
database.
Resolution:
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. It must be configured as the default keyword term
store for the Web application.
