Issue: User profiles Sync DB doesn't have Tables or Stored Procedures

Issue:

While you are trying to import the user profiles in SharePoint 2010, you will get lots of errors. Particularly, we will face some of the issues like below:

1. Forefront Identity Manager Service may not be started.

2. Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization service may not be started.

3. If you see the "eventvwr", you will get some of the errors like below:

   

Error 1:

The Forefront Identity Manager Service cannot connect to the SQL Database Server.

The SQL Server could not be contacted. The connection failure may be due to a network failure, firewall configuration error, or other connection issue. Additionally, the SQL Server connection information could be configured incorrectly.

Verify that the SQL Server is reachable from the Forefront Identity Manager Service computer. Ensure that SQL Server is running, that the network connection is active, and that the firewall is configured properly. Last, verify the connection information has been configured properly. This configuration is stored in the Windows Registry.

Error 2:

Error 3:

The Forefront Identity Manager Service was not able to initialize a timer necessary for supporting the execution of workflows.The Forefront Identity Manager Service could not bind to its endpoints. This failure prevents clients from communicating with the Web services.

Error 4:

 A most likely cause for the failure is another service, possibly another instance of Forefront Identity Manager Service, has already bound to the endpoint. Another, less likely cause, is that the account under which the service runs does not have permission to bind to endpoints.

Ensure that no other processes have bound to that endpoint and that the service account has permission to bind endpoints. Further, check the application configuration file to ensure the Forefront Identity Manager Service is binding to the correct endpoints.

Solution:

I have spent lots of time to fix this issue. Hmmmm...  The solution is in SQL server side. In SQL Server database, you cannot find any "tables" or "Stored Procedures" in "Sync DB"

I have given the solution in single screenshot.  In the below screenshot, set the "db_owner" schema for "dbo".

Close

If you set the "dbo" as "db_owner", you can able to start the "Forefront Identity Manager Service". so that you will be able to start the profile import process.

Update: 
The same permission should be assigned to all user profile service databases like "Profile DB", "Social DB".


Also you need to restart the below services
1. Forefront Identity Manager service 
2. Forefront Identity Manager Synchronization Service
3. IIS 

Thats it...
