Your personal site cannot be created because the managed path "Path" has not been created for this site. Contact your site administrator for more information in Sharepoint 2010

Hi,

Recently one farm administrator reported a problem to me that they are unable to setup the mysites in SPS 2010 environment. They were following all the instructions in technet articles http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624362.aspx but still they were getting this error "Your personal site cannot be created because the managed path "Path" has not been created for this site. Contact your site administrator for more information". I suggested them to check if the managed paths are created and set up properly or not. They checked the same and found them OK. I suggested to create a new wildcard managed path and to test the same and they did so but their was nothing that could have caused this. At last I found the reason for it.

Under mysite settings their is field "Location". Here you need to add your managed path you have created for your mysites but you should only add its name and not with the full URL. So if you have created it as "Personal" it should be "Personal" only and not with the URL format as http://webApplication/mangedpath.

I asked them to change it and it worked.
I hope this will help you out.

Thanks,
Rahul Rashu
