Sharepoint 2010 User Profile Synchronization Service stuck on starting
By peter.stilgoe
For anyone else having this issue it looks like this is an issue with the beta version of Sharepoint 2010 as when using service accounts it appears that the user profile sync just sticks on ‘Starting’ & never actually starts.
To get it started add your service account as a local admin & reboot & you should find it starts OK.
Good job its a beta in a test environment!
