Failed to retrieve profile

I don't see it anymore, after i got the UpmProvider to run i get

problems after problems with it. First I had to change the Account

Status Type ti SITEITEM and then I had the problem that the field

Last_Lockedout_date was not found. I realliced that quite a few more

attributs were needed and that i have to insert them into my prfile

schema as well as in the SQL Database. Because i got the loging process

from the StarterSite i took the Profile mapping from there as well,

uptated my prfoile catalog with that and mi Profiels Database. But now

i get the errormessage: Failed to retrieve profile.

The error occurs as soon as I want to read the UserId from

CommerceContext. Funny is that except the UserId and UserProfile all

atrributes in CommerceContext.Curret are sett.

How can i see wht the exact problem is? It has to be an wrong mapping

as I think, or is there another possibility why the loading proceess

fails?

It sounds like you are using logon_name as your profile key. By default Starter Site uses email_address as the profile key and if you copied the setup exactly you will likely have problems.

The short answer is you need to set the userIdKey attribute of the userProfile element in web.config to "GeneralInfo.logon_name" (or whatever you are using) and add the logonNameProperty attribute to the <add> element for the UpmMembershipProvider and set its value to "GeneralInfo.logon_name."

The long answer is to follow the applicable steps of the Starter Site Custom Profiles Tutorial in the Starter Site documentation. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=76190
