PWA AD Sync Fails

[TheWall]

Hi,

I have a production environment PWA that is suddenly dot Syncing with the AD.

Been working fore ever with no issues.

Error when trying to sync:
Standard InformationSI Entry Point:

PWA Site URL: http://inet/PWA

Hi,
Check the sharepoint log files on the server to get more details regarding
the error
They should be located at <drive>:\program files\common files\Microsoft
Shared\web server extensions\12\LOGS

Hi,
Still missing information,
I can refer you to this link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197402.aspx
It provides best practices on using this process - maybe from here you can
get more details on your problem.

In this article there is a section that starts with "Troubleshoot
synchronization issues...", it can give you a way of logging more AD sync
related data - try enabling it.
It also talks about a "deadlock" situation that might cause users to be
locked out of a PWA - sounds similar to your situation

If possible, lets progress from here
