I did edit the profile property definitions but not within the database. A few additional fields were added from the admin>user accounts>manage profile properties area.
I opened the Profile Property Definitions table and I see that there is some duplication in Property Names, such as: Prefix, FirstName, MiddleName, LastName, Suffix, Unit, Street, City, region, country, PostalCode, Telephone, Cell, Fax, Website, IM, Biography, TimeZone, PreferredLocale. Would this be the cause of the error?
