Unable to load roaming profile issue...

[Brad Pears]

I have configured roaming profiles for users of our WIn2K and Win2k3
terminal servers. It seems to be working fine - except for one particular
user. He can log onto the win2K server - no problems. However, if he happens
to log onto the win2k3 server, it will not load his profile. The error is as
follows...

Windows cannot log you on because your profile cannot be loaded. Check that
you are connected to the network, or that your network is functioning
correctly. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator.

DETAIL - There is not enough space on the disk


I am not sure where this is coming from but there certainly is no lack of
space. His profile is only average in size - as compared to some other users
that are having no issues. I have deleted and re-copied his profile with
the same results.

As I mentioned earlier, he can log on to the WIndows 2000 server no
problem - it's the win2k3 server that is having the issue...

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know!!

PS.. The event being generated is a "userenv" 1500. There is hardly any info
on this at all on eventid.com

Thanks,

Brad

Checked the User's Disk Quota ?

Have you checked the users' permission on the profile folder?
A "disk is full" error sometimes just means "can't create this
file for some reason or the other"

 

[Brad Pears]

Where do you check that???

Checked the User's Disk Quota ?

 

[Brad Pears]

No problems there... I even set the everyone group to full access on the
documents and settigns dir on the win2k3 server jsut to test... same
error...

Where can you check the users disk quota? allthough I can;t see that being
an issue... because many other users have larger profiles and are having no
problems...

Thanks,

Brad

You were right!!!

Except can you explain this to me... The disk quota on the machine the user
is trying to log onto is set at 10mb. The user's profile is less than 6mb!!!
Why would it be giving me a problem when the profile is less than the
quota??

However, once I turned quota's off, it worked fine...

Sorry, I don't know.
