For those who have the issue of profile's redirecting to their profile when they view them (which shows as a threadabort exception in the event viewer) can they please run the following query and post me back the results (replace the portalid with the relevant portal)

select tabid,tabname, parentid,[level],tabpath from {databaseOwner}[{objectQualifier}vw_Tabs] where tabpath like '%ActivityFeed%' or tabpath like '%UserProfile%' and portalid=0

Note: as i've used the databaseOwner and objectQualifer you'll have to run this via host->sql (use the script option)

Hi Cathal,

When I ran in Host>Sql as script I got no results, had to take out dbo&ObjQual to get it to report!

Ooh! Curiouser:

Would the fact that there are 3 usertabids here be connected to the fact that I have three portals in this instance, all of which have the same rolename?  And would this account for the fact that I have the same user accounts shown 3 times in the member directory?  Does the member directory query not use portalid as a filter?

Ah, looking at PortalLocalization, I have three entries for portal 0, one each for CultureCode: blank, en-GB and en-US.
