New user logs on then gets logged straight off again

[Renfield-64]

When I create a new user in AD (I do this by copying an account in the correct OU) the new user logs on and just before it hits the desktop is logged off again.

I've tried deleting and re-creating the profile but the same happens. I have had this problem before but can't for the life of me remember what the issue was and how I solved it.

When I googled it some responses point to the registry but it can't be this because I've tried on different PCs with the same result.

 

Anyone know what's going on here?

 

Server 2012

Windows 7 Enterprise

 

Thanks

Does this happen for every new user you create? (does it help to try copying from a different user? Perhaps your user 'template' is the source of the issue?)

Hi, It's only happened with a new user I created today. I've tried re-creating from a different user but same result.

I've created other users within the last week and they have been fine.

Any User Profile error messages or group policy profile errors?? Edited September 14, 2017 by Davit2005

No, just logs on then logs off again.

[Davit2005]

Enable Verbose logging for a host that is having this issue and/or log in with local admin and see if any errors in event logs

Ok I'll have a look at the event log.

I saw this recently on a Windows 10 PC (1703) until I rebooted, applied the two outstanding updates, rebooted and it all settled down again.

 

I don't think it is the server, I think it is the client pc with the problem.

Does it log you off for the first time logging in on each computer

Or

Only the first time it logs on anywhere?

Any first time logon scripts. I have a logon script that fixes adobe elements profile which is initialised if the user logs in to any of the media computers for the first time.

[Renfield-64]

Whichever computer I log onto it logs me off. Not just the first time. On that particular user it hasn't stayed logged on at all.

 

This is from the event log of the computer.

You mentioned that you created the account by copying one from the relevant OU (This is also the way I do it), but have you tried creating a user from 'scratch' to see if the problem still persists? Is this happening across all OUs?

Why is there a $ sign after the folder “redirected”

 

A dollar sign normally comes on the share name, not a sub folder within a share

 

Also I never like spaces in my paths.

Not saying it’s the cause but I have known spaces causing issues that really shouldn’t be an issue

Are these roaming profiles you're creating?

It does seem to be a file permission issue.

The $ simple means to hide the directory, this is setup in the share properties.

Hi,

yes it was a permissions thing. I can't remeber how I sorted it now but it is sorted.

 

Thanks guys.
