While working with user profile service in SharePoint,
configuring new connection, I got an error saying that “Cannot navigate to the
requested page because…” as shown in the image below.
To fix this we need to start the user profile service in the
services. But we need to have “Replicating domain changes” permissions. Without
this we can’t import the changes from AD to SharePoint/SharePoint to AD.
To provide the permission, Right click on Active Directory
and select “Delegate Control” option.
We can see the wizard, select the user and click next, in
the Permissions window; we need to grant “replicate Directory Changes” right for
the user.
Now we need to start the User Profile Synchronization
service in Services. It will take some little time to start.
