Microsoft Accounts Fail To Log In To Windows 10 with “User Profile Service failed the login” Error.

Oct 19, 2016 , by Jeff

My kids are getting to the age where they can’t keep away from the laptop, various pads or the Smart TV to go online…time for some protection I thought.

I figured, for the Windows 10 laptops, that I’d use the Microsoft Accounts approach and use the “big brother” features there to stop the kids watching things they shouldn’t and restrict their access time.

First step was to convert my local account into a Microsoft one – simple enough and worked fine.

Next step was to create additional Microsoft accounts and then have them linked up as part of the “Family” – again, fine.

Then tell the PC to add those users – again all fine and simple to do.

All going well up until now, but then when I try to logout of my working Microsoft account on the laptop and login to one of the Family Microsoft accounts, it fails with the “User profile Service failed the login:

After much googling and trying various things, the one which worked for me was to copy the directory C:\Users\Default from a working Windows 7 Ultimate machine onto the laptop with the problem (where the directory did not exist at all). The advice I found actually referred to copying from another Windows 10 machine, but I didn’t have one of those – only a Windows 7 one.

I then added the family Microsoft accounts back in and after logging out and trying to login as one of these added accounts then worked fine!

I can’t be certain what the issue was, but various reading suggested an issue where the machine was upgraded from Windows 7/8 to 10 and where the local profile (C:\Users\Default) was either missing or corrupted. Copying in a working one from another machine fixed the issue in my case.

OTN Appreciation Day: Automatic Storage Management (ASM)

Oct 11, 2016 by Jeff

Big shout out to Tim for kicking this off!

Automatic Storage Management (ASM) provides optimised volume management and filesystem capabilities for Oracle databases, whether they be single or multi instance (RAC) implementations.

Although introduced with Oracle 10g Release 1 in 2004, I first used it in a production scenario around 2008, when upgrading a hardware platform for a Data Warehouse. It seemed like a logical choice for myself and the DBAs at the time, although the storage team were less pleased at losing some control. Ultimately it proved a big success on that project and is still in stable, reliable use today.

Things I like about ASM include:

  • Simplifies storage management
  • Automatic rebalancing when capacity is added
  • Visibility within Enterprise Manager for monitoring
  • Availability of detailed metrics within the database
  • Reliable, balanced and consistent performance
  • Works with RAC
  • Rolling upgrades and patching
  • Provides a reliable cluster filesystem (ACFS)
  • Even more cool features coming in 12c such as Flex ASM

Transferring default domains for SQL Developer Data Modeler

Oct 3, 2016 by Jeff

I got a new laptop the other day and installed all the software, including SQL Developer Data Modeler all fine. I then opened a model which had a bunch of tables with columns based off Domains…the columns did not have Domains against them but had been replaced with Logical data types instead.

After some research, the fix, in this case, involved copying the file “defaultdomains.xml” from the following directory on my old laptop, to the same place on the new laptop:

%SQL Developer Home%\sqldeveloper\extensions\oracle.datamodeler\types

Its requirement buy cheap tadalafil is mostly felt by those, who are missing it in their daily lives. There are many men who order cheap viagra are treating the problem.
After restarting and reopening the model all was back to normal.

What I probably could have done in the first place was to have created my own Domains file for the Design, saved in the Design folder and then when I transferred the Design by copying across the Design folder the domains would have come with it. I could have then just opened the Domain file on the new laptop. I guess it depends on whether I would want these domains to Design specific or part of the defaults.
